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.

No not weird at all. I'm the same way. At last some one that understands. I've been using Beautiful Widgets very similar. Not the clock and weather toggle. I bought that and it wasn't quite up to par. No raindrops on the glass or clouds and thunder. Beautiful Widgets was worth the money though. I was going to check this Digital Clock out too. Just haven't yet. If you try it let me know how you like it.

The sense widgets REQUIRE sense framework and the rosie launcher.
There was an app that was pulled from the market called 'Fancy Widget'. All I will say is that it was pulled via C&D by HTC themselves for being 'too similar' to the proprietary clock widget you are looking for.
"Fancy Widget" Google is your friend.

Yeah Fancy Widget is the one run by the Weather and Toggle app you have to buy to make it run. Not really what the sense clock is like. I liked the Beautiful Widgets way better. You can play with different skins till you find one that suits you and the Boca weather skin is just like the sense weather.
Actually. That is not correct. Fancy Widget is different and you can Google it. I use it because you can set if to update more frequently. If the stock app updated every 30 minutes like you can set Fancy Widget to do I would still be using it...

what about other HTC widgets? I would love to use LauncherPro but I have to have the HTC Photo Album widget to show off my new baby girl. I know there are other photo widgets and I have tried almost all of them but none can compare to the HTC. Please help I am sick of using the rest of Sense....
Every HTC specific widget cannot be run on any Launcher except Rosie and cannot be ported without making an exact replica with the same images like Fancy Widget. People need to realize this and stop asking.
There is a separate Widget named Fancy Widget, it was pulled from the Market, because... IT IS EXACTLY the same as HTC clock, they literally copied the images. It is wonderful, a little more flexible, and can be setup to check more often, and launch whichever clock and weather app you choose when you touch.... Only thing it does not do is animations. Google "Fancy Widget apk" and really look as stated prior if you want the HTC clock...
If you want something attractive, slightly different, and still free check out
Weather Widgets (yr.no) http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.ermesjo.yr I switch between this and Fancy Widget based on how I am feeling lol
As for anyone missing other HTC widgets... support Launcher Pro and purchase Launcher Pro Plus, the widgets are very comparable... and the guy has written a wonderful piece of software... so pay the 2.99!!
I just downloaded Fancy Widget 1.3 and it is basically the same exact thing as the HTC Sense Clock widget but it allows you to configure what application it launches when you hit the weather icon, date or time. I just installed it and haven't seen if it does the weather animations but I could care less about that.
Hi all,
I'm looking for a clock like this that works with launcherpro:

This one is part of the HTC clock widget, but that only works with Sense.
Is there someone who can advice?
thanks!
Sorry, looked at wrong image! Not seen one like that, usually people look for fancy widget!
Not totally what you're looking for, but it's similar!
Here's a screeny:

And here's the APK
http://villainrom.jeremygohblog.com/tristan202/com.tristan.analogclock.apk
I know... Of course there are tons of clock widgets out there, but none that quite match the design of CircleBattery.
Same goes for reception signal widgets by the way: none that match CircleBattery. I might just go out and make one myself....
Weather & Toggle Widgets

I use and really like Weather & Toggle Widgets. Lots of skins to choose from.
In the search menu type "Hero style clocks" , if not here check it in other forums or, wait for me to write 8 posts
dude there is a clock widget in the markest(sexiest i hv came across)...its got a animated f*****g sexy second hand...and its animation can also be turned off...and dere are plenty of awesome style packs also...you can search for animated clock or animated second in the market....uummm and author name is..."dns project"....best round clock widget with animated second hand and packs......try it....
Hey guys, I am searching for a clock widget. It has to be a clock that has moving, exposed gears that actually rotate. I believe the style is called tourbillon.
I searched the market and searched for downloadable .apk's but I have found nothing for what I am looking for.
There is an app in the market that looks like the clock I want, but it doesn't have moving gears. Here's a picture of what i'm looking for, and a market link for the one that doesn't work, so you have a good Idea of what i'm looking for.

Here is a market link to a clock I found that has moving gears, but it is super slow, really choppy, and is a live wallpaper, not a widget.

Thanks for the help guys!
Android does not support animation on the desktop.(unless a home manager does)
Unless you fake the animation, which means refreshing the widget and wasting battery.

By home manager, do you mean something such as LauncherPro, ADWLauncher or something like that? I am using launcher pro at the moment. At this point I would be ok with the clock being a live wallpaper, so long as it is smooth and fluid.
Widgets can not be animated (to my knowledge)

The Sense clock widget of HTC phones have an animation. And the clock of Regina Launcher too.

Yeah I second that. I had analog clock with an animated second hand at one point. Obviously it is possible to have animated Widgets.

Has anyone made a clock like this yet?
It is possible to use animation in a widget, see my clock for instance, which does not consume battery power at all.
Did a quick search seems like no one have made a thread on this.
Attached is what is believed to be, the new SE launcher to come with the 2.3.4 update for the 2011 range Xperia handsets,
which is now also working on X10 with the 2.3.3 update
the new launcher feels smoother, with ability to uninstall apps from app drawer and theme functions (however no themes are provided by SE at this stage)
*EDIT - the power control widget is SwitchPro widget, clock widget is SimiClock. both available from Market.
*NEW VERSION 2.0.A.0.22 launcher:

Try it
I can confirm even with stock rom only, X10 feels as smooth as Arc, just install it over the existing launcher. all your widgets and desktop config will be kept.
I am gonna try this...!!

Lol. Tried it on LG O1. Works nicely.. only problems in app drawer.. the arrow icon in the lower left corner gives a FC...
Edit:
Cant add widgets or anything... guess u cant use it on other devices after all
Edit:
Flashed CM7 and it works nicely on it. Wish there were some options in the app drawer tho. The horizontal app drawer isn't very awesome.
supercool... thanks....
It's a lot smoother and faster....nice find
it looks cool;i will try it too.
when you pinch all the icons float around too, pretty cool
is it faster slower or any more fuction ?
any info please ???

It's quite a lot faster and smoother.
The option of hiding apps in the drawer is there too (but only for installed apps and not system apps).
A nice update.
Nice found man!!
The launcher is very smooth, thanksfor uploading!
Where are the power widget and the weather / clock widget from?
how do we install it? Whats the name of the file we should replace?

Its pretty cool but useless lol. I bet SE spent more time on making stuff like this than delivering our GB update...typical
also discovered that when you shake the phone after you pinch zoomed your widgets and stuff they shake around too
Hey, just a quick question. What's the difference between the 2.3.4 launcher and the 2.3.3 launcher? As you mentioned, the power toggle and clock aren't SE widgets.
The pinch overview mode comes with the 2.3.3 update.
