Hi,
i just switched from an HTC ONE M8 to the S6 Edge. One feature i liked a lot on the HTC was that you could tap the clock and it would open the clock app and let's you manage your alarm or start the stopwatch. On the S6 tapping the clock brings up the weather.
is there any way to make it work like on the htc one on the S6?

Hi. One the native samsung clock you can't choose the app that you want open. But you can try X widget on the Playstore. There is many style of clock ( I'm sure there is HTC one M8 ) and in the setting you can choose the app you want open on click..:good:
Xwidget is exactly what i was looking for. Thank you so much!!

How much more different is that one compared to Weather Widget:donate or Beautiful Widgets?
They all look the same to me with minor difference.
.
its a new one called Weather widgets (yr.no) FREE from the market
http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.ermesjo.yr/
Much more advanced in weather information than weather widget of beautiful widgets .No skins though.
one annoying thing is that weather widget does not display date/day! they put (today) which isnt of much use
The closest I have got to getting the HTC clock widget on the x10 is free widget app on the market called HTC clocks and a weather widget. They are both low rez and look terrible on the home screen. Anyone know if there is a high rez htc clock and weather widget out there? Perhaps taken from the desire?
Look here.
Yes, just download Fancy Widget from Market and you will have exactly like on Desire, Im using it and it is great !
Do you also get the nice weather animations that appear on Desire when you unlock the screen? Windshield wipers on rainy days and so on? Doesn't seem to work here.

As far as i know, you don't have that in the Fancy Widget now.
I think that this is Android 2.1 feature and that we cannot have that animated sun and rain...correct me if Im wrong...but then, I dont see why isnt that implemented in any weather app if it is possible on 1.6 ?
Beautiful home widget looks great. u get an animated weather widget which changes according to the time.
"Weather Widget & Toggle" plus their weather addon is what you're looking for. Identical to the HTC clock in hi-rez and it has the weather animations, lightning, clouds scrolling buy, rain drops with wiper blade etc.
which addon do you mean?

After you install weather widget & toggle, there is a addon for extended weather options. Just hit options inside the weather widget, and there is an option to download the weather addon. This replaces the default screen when you tap on the weather icon on the clock, it opens up a new weather screen that has the kick ass animated weather and forcast.
i tested it, but i like fancy widget more
I use Beautifull Widgets and is working great and has animation just like Desire. I have my X10i and my brother has Desire....

try beautiful widgets...
I used to use beautiful widgets but for the last week or so ive tried fancy widgets. I like the look of the fancy ones as its almost a direct copy from the htc sense one but i found my battery seemed to be dying quicker than normal so ive gone back to beautiful for now to test it.
Anyone else use fancy widget and find their battery going quicker?
HTC is taking down any clock widgets that looks like theirs
fancy widgets, weather forcast, and another app changed their clock designs.
so if you want to get the htc clock i guess you gotta google it and manually install it.
Damn HTC
Fancy widget has no weather icon below the clock, its that 2 days already. What is that ? I have only clock and other numbers but no icon for weather ?
The clock
Hello,
I just installed Fancy Widget, but it seems to be problem with the time.
The clock never updates, weather is working fine.
I did change one settings, AUTO refresh. cuz i dont want to use internet all the time.
I was using beautiful widget and lately it was giving some errors on whether. So I installed fancy widget and remove from kill list.
So far its working fine and I kept 12 hours refresh interval and use manual location instead GPS (it kills battery)
I have no battery impact on both apps and Im happy about it.
With the recent update on fancy widget, it will be discontinued due to HTC behind them on name usage.
It seems that HTC is taking down Fancy Widget now.
Just look here: http://www.anddoes.com/?p=47
So does anyone have an apk file of Fancy Widget v1.2.4 i can download from somewhere?. Yes the widget is free, so it's not warez.

Dont worry Developer will rerun to us with new version in a separate identity.
developers last words :
Finally, we would like to share with you some of the things that we are working on and some highly requested features that we plan to bring to future versions of our new widget.
* Weather animations.
* Alternative widget sizes (e.g., 4 x 1).

So thanks again for your support, and stay tuned for our new version!

Hi,
Do you mean lockscreen or homescreen?
Look in the market for "wp clock design live wallpaper"
Yes I meant lockscreen.
Will look for the wp clock design
Thank you
If its lock screen it would be harder, but depending on the ROM you can find various designs closest to the one you're looking for.
Ya lockscreen for sure, been looking through the forum and the playstore for hours and still nothing.
I'm on ViperS ROM
It looks to me a homescreen. If so it is minimalistic text

Yep I can find homescreen like that but not lockscreen
Maybe Widgetlocker will do the trick. It replaces your lockscreen, and allows you to add widgets to it.
Thanks ridder215215,
Looks like that is going to be as close as I can get so far. Widgetlocker has security issues.
hy Pamela,
install this rom if you stuck on bootloop read this
after install open settings > lockscreen
ripkid666,
That ROM has looked interesting for awhile. At this time I need more stability as a daily driver.
I really dont want to switch ROMS just for the lockscreen.
Thanks
Hello All,
Just checking in for possible developments
I have found some success with this setup:
1. Install Widgetlocker
2. Install TypoClock
Use the TypoClock as a widget on the Widgetlocker screen
Hi all, I just got my nexus 5 and right after I updated my system to Android 4.4.2, I tried to add widgets to the lockscreen, but it just doesn't work. I know you have to enable widgets under security in the settings and I did that. I just can't swipe left on the lockscreen to get that plus sign. Also dashclock doesn't work. Help! Any idea is much appreciated.

I find that I have to really swipe from the edge of the screen, some cases may prevent this or make it difficult.

Oh my god thank you so much! I didn't realize that... I had a case on so that explains... Yes i totally agree we are to really swipe from the edge. Thank you so much!
You have to expand the widget first. Just drag the clock widget downwards. When its expanded, try swiping your screen. It should work.

Thank you! I just figured that out...
Word/Text clock lockscreen widget ?
Is there such a widget for a lockscreen, which would display a clock / time written in words ?? Like the clock face one on Pebble smart watch, for example?!
Example, the time is 5:36 and on the widget it would be displayed as "five thirty six" !
Thanks

Of course. Just search for "text clock widget".
I am trying to get the weather to display on my lock screen. It says "To view weather information on the lock screen, add the Samsung Weather widget to the home screen." I cant find this. Can someone explain how to get the weather on my lockscreen please?

I use Nova Launcher and find the Samsung weather widget doesn't show up there. If you switch to TouchWiz your can find the widget and add it there, then it will show up on the lock screen. I'm not sure if it will update properly though, I never see it because I forget to swipe over to it. Seems to me it might not be updating once you go back to Nova.

Nope, it's just called Weather.

Mine works. Nothing special, just weather as well.
I'm on Verizon with my S8+. Did they disable this setting because I can't add weather to my lock screen.

Yes mine is a Verizon S8+, and I am on Tmobile, but I flashed the Canadian firmware on it
I am also unable to add this. Was anyone able to add theirs?
I use the elecont weather app: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0058EBNAO/ref=mas_ya_dp
Shows two rows on the lock screen with one row for this weeks' daily weather and the second row for next week. I didn't do anything odd just set up the nav bar display on pull down to show the same thing.
I'm using Nova Launcher.
I have the unlocked US version and the option to add the weather to the lock screen is not there, same as the Verizon users.
If anyone that has this option for having weather on the lockscreen and is rooted, is there a possibility that I could get a copy of your csc_features.xml. I am seeing if I can get this feature added to the US variants. Thanks in advance.
