Please help me find Google News & Weather 2.3 w/transparent widget - General Questions and Answers

As a reference here is a thread that had an older version with transparent widget but for months now my widget has shown 'There is a new version available' on my home screen instead of news headlines and when I try to update it says my SGS4 on stock ROM isn't compatible for the new update. It's frustrating. I've found what I think is the standard APK for the newest version but the background will be solid black as it's the stock version and I need the transparent widget. Does anyone have a link for me as I've searched and can't seem to come up with any solutions.
If I can get extra picky and it's not difficult can I request the newest Google News & Weather app with transparent widget & the sense weather icons like this version had and it's not difficult? Can someone point me in the right direction or know of anyone who can make such requests?
Thanks for reading!

Clock + Date App @ News+ Weather Style out there?

Hi,
actually i have a Desire with the Cyanogen Rom @ Nexus Style so i think my question is @ the right forum.
I like the stock news + weather widget, but i can not find a clock which look similar.
What i like to have is the Lockscreen Clock + Date on the News&Weather widget background. Somebody saw something like this? I tried several clock apps and of course beautiful widgets, i did a skin for beatiful widgets with the same background but i can't ged rid of the weather there
Is it hard to do such an app? Anyone out there who want's the same and is probably capable of doing such an app?
See the attachments plz. Postet 1. the background, 2. the clock, 3. what it should look like (with the proper background of course ).
Get "Beautiful Widgets". It has what you are looking for

Thats the HTC widget. That will only work on a Sense ROM and if you are using the Sense Launcher (no ADW or Launcher Pro ect). If you are running one it should be included. The closest thing would be Beautiful Widgets that you can get in the market. There is(or was) another one in the market that is an exact clone but Im sure it wont be long before HTC shuts them down if they havent already.
o i c and i do have ADW launcher. thanks for your respond and i will look for that beautiful widget.
I think the closest replacement to the Htc Clock/Weather Widget is called Weather & Toggle Widget in the Market - I really like it a lot.
Or Fancy Widget which looks just like it, but you will need to surf the internet to dig it out. Since it was taken off the market place, or at least I dont see it no the market anymore.

[REQ] Status switch widget from stock firmware

theres a widget from xperia play before the first update on 2.3.3 before 'themes' was added a standard 4x1 status switcher the usual turning off wifi etc. Much neater than the 3x2 switcher , anyone dump me the apk please?
I'd help you out but I'm on cyanogenmod right now, but I'm pretty sure there was a system dump posted a while ago, you might have some luck there. I had the same problem before switching over and just went with Widgetoid from the market, its highly customisable (and free) the only thing it can't do is directly toggle your gps (gingerbread restriction).

u can try 'Beautifull Weather widgets' from stores and see
True. If you want good looking weather widgets then try beautiful weather widgets available on the play store.

Weather Widget That does what Im looking for.

I want a weather widget that has videos playing in the widget that show the condition of the weather. Kind of like the Samsung or LG weather widgets. I know Yahoo Weather does static images but I want Video. Is there any type like this that will work with any launcher. IE Nova???

I haven't come across exactly what you are looking for.
What I suggest, however, is using live weather wallpapers. They serve the same purpose that you want but in a slightly different way.
Here are a few examples:
Weather Wallpaper by yitiaocailHM
Weather Screen by Hamster Beat - it's not free though
Animated Weather Widget, Clock by Mobilityflow Publishing - they list animated widgets under features in development
Unfortunately I can't provide links as I haven't reached my 10 post limit yet.
Vitesse.
BUMP Until I get a answer

In his case (as in my case too), phone/android version is irrelevant because we want a weather widget for a 3rd party launcher and NOT for a propierary launcher with a propietary dependant weather widget (like samsung weather widget, or xperia weather widgets that are only compatible with their propietary launchers...)
Anyway... answering myself, i've found two widgets that does exactly what we want, but they can be very laggy without a potent phone
--> FineWeather Widget
--> Animated Weather Widgets
Both in play store
