You might also want to try Elixir 2 (make sure to install Elixir 2 widgets -- it's separate).

Elixir 2 or Battery Monitor widget
Tapatalk Team SlimRoms Nexus 5

Zooper is pretty nice. You can try that. You just have to configure it the way you want

System monitor
Bright Red Nexus 5

I've been looking for a cpu widget for weeks. Ive installed almost everything.
All I want is a nice looking widget supporting all cores showing graph, bar or gauge with mhz. I found one that actually looks good. Paid for it and ran for a while. It just stopped working after a hour sometimes 2... no support
Anyone know of anything? System monitor nearly did but the cpu widget was the only unthemable part of it.

Hi,
System Tuner Pro?
Accurate, and tunable with all current system info but for battery (from the same dev) try Android Tuner (a mix with System Tuner and Battery Monitor)... With a few notifications bar info (for that Cool Tools is great too).
The widget in System Tuner work perfectly for me.

Try System Tuner Pro. It goes great with Battery Monitor Pro; they are both from the same author.

I only have one issue with this version, and it seems like the battery draining is huge with this version, otherwise, it looks very, VERY good and pretty stable for me. I'm happy because finally it looks even better than the iOS version, and the emoticons button is now placed in a more comfortable area.
Thanks for the heads up.

Probably it is a Beta version, but I don't think so, because it is already in the official download for Android, maybe it's about to be released on Google Play

The update has probably been submitted to the Play Store, and awaiting authentication.

Does this new version support the 'Last Seen Online' stamp for the contact yet? The iOS version of Whatsapp has always supported this.

^like he/she said. It's always been there. Works fine on the new version too.
No, I think he means the option to HIDE it. I find it an invasion of privacy (anyone who has your number can see when you're online, not only your contacts) so I don't use whatsapp more than to send my parents messages. I use Line until Whatsapp fixes that issue and bring it to a level that makes it on par with Android. Until then, I never answer people because I hate having people know when I'm using my phone to answer messages or not. One good thing in Line's favor is that it also has a PC Client version which means I get home, I can continue conversations directly, apart from the obvious privacy concern.
Come on Whatsapp, get your game on. This is an option that has been available for iOS for as long as I can remember, but you're lacking on Android.

Hopefully they will tweak it before releasing it on the play store. Don't think I will update until I read more reviews on the battery.

no battery issues here, been using it since yesterday
i thought whatsapp is pretty old and everyone is on wechat, isn't it?
since wechat is so turbo charged powerful and iphone-like smooth, making whatsapp looks like from stone age.
this is not an ad........and im off-topic i guess.
This new version is gorgeous and very functional. They have done a great job.

No battery drain issues for me. I'm still waiting for a badge on the icon.
Another bug that I found:
In Contacts, it used to appear the whatsapp icon for the contacts who use whatsapp, now the icon looks like a truck hahaha, anyone have the same bug?

I love the new pop-up notification. Very fast to respond any message! And new layout is cool too.

Been using these w/ Apex for a while now. I'm sure they're good for Nova also. I think they are a buck fifty or something like that..........worth it IMO. Cheers!

There are so many wow! I like a lot of them, but have refrained from using them on KitKat because I like the Google stock 4.4 look so much. I'll eventually get tired of it and start using icon packs. Here are some I really dig:
- flatastico
- portal
- romow round
- click ui
- miui4
- spectre
- flatro
- tendere
- umbra
- fade
- holo
- banx
I found the theme "Glass Pyramid 3D Icon" recently that I really like.

Need widgets suggestions.

I am looking for a simple weather and also a switch widget which does not consume a lot of RAM. I have tried a few of the more popular widgets available through the play store but they're either not very customizeable or too power hungry.
I'm currently using Google Now for my primary weather updates, but it does not look aesthetically pleasing.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a weather and a switch widget?
The CM11 clock/weather widget does quite well. I been using it on AOKP ever since it's been implemented in CM. As for a switch widget I just use the built in power control widget with a transparent background.

I was thinking more of something not ROM-linked widgets. I'm on stock, and would like to keep it that way.

LTE/4G widget for stock nexus 5
Is there widget for quick switch LTE/4G on and off for stock roms? All apps in play store just open mobile networks settings. My runtime is ART, so xposed does not work, if i am right?
I use widgetsoid, been around for ages, quite simple but does the job. Have mine on my quick drawer of action launcher.
No complaints.

Eye in the sky weather widget looks the best imo. It has pretty decent customization options too. As for switches...not sure, I don't use any.
