I have downloaded like every Genie News + Weather widget .apk on XDA, it seems all of them still show the sun even at night time Does that widget not show the moon or night time setting ?
Anyone ?

93 views and no one knows if the stock Android weather genie widget shows nighttime ?
This a huge F up by the Google development team overlooking that ? Displaying the sun at midnight WTF

Nope, the genie app has never showed that kinda info. I really like Beautiful Widgets because of that.
It shows a really nice animation like the htc clock widget and also shows the sunrise/sunset too.

Hi.
Does anybody know of a good calendar widget? I've tried some and most require you to use their calendar application. I personally prefer the calender app that comes stock with the vibrant and would like a widget that pulled info from there but looks more like the stock widget on vanilla android.

"Pure Calendar Widget" is one of the few paid apps that I have used the entire time since buying them when I had my G1 until now.
Extremely customizable and will allow you to use pretty much any calendar app.
Thanks guys, I'm downloading both right now.
I highly recommend Pure Calendar Widget as well.. excellent application and worth the $

So I bought pure calander widget, as well as messenger widget, very very nice. Granted theres a ton of options, too much to get into right now but so far so good. Nice way to spend the little bit of funds in my account. and the HTC sense skins are a nice touch.
*accidental doublepost, sorry.
The one that comes with launcher pro plus is pretty good. But if you don't use LP I guess its not too helpful.
using agenda widget
started using pure calendar widget today.
3 questions:
-i see someone mentioned you can make it htc sense like? i dont see how???
-when i rotate screen, the widget goes blank for about 2 minutes...not like a little lag and re-draw with takes seconds. it goes completely white for about 1 or 2 minutes, then it all comes back. any ideas?
edit, 1 more question:
-what is the difference between pure calendar widget and agenda widget? pros or cons of each?

You have the option to skin the app. At the bottom in the config screen theres the option to Continue and Skin. Thats where I found mine.
Also which launcher are you using? ADW has an option to enable and disable scrollable widgets, which might be the cause of your problem.
I recently discovered Jorte, which has a good amount of widgets and the calendar app itself is excellent and will fully replace the stock one (my preference) - but I'm pretty sure you can have it open the stock one. It can also sync with Google Tasks although it has to be done manually.
cool, thanks.
in LP, it enabled scrollable widgets and that has seem to fix the going blank problem.
but i think im going to try the agenda widget as pure calendar widget just slows my phone WAY down. It just slows everything down. maybe if i turn off scrollable in pure calendar and lp it will work better...
I've found this one, it's a clock & weather with beaty animation, and you can get it profi version for free, just like me
But please - tell me which other widgets do you use and witch are beaty and readable on our display. Thanks

Simple but damn important and useful, True silence. Basically with one click it makes your android completely silent, instead of android's crappy 'silent' mode which leaves the media volume on, and if you go to adjust that manually it will play to you the current level of media, which will be loud and might turn heads towards you..
Also I use rimshot widget for fun, and pure grid calendar, but it costs so.

For quite mode I use "phone silencer" <- you can set when the silence mode will be switched off
A client with this phone came to me for a problem she had. The thing is that she had the same home screen effect as sense for htc phones and i am shure that she does not have a rooted or modified phone. I tought at first that it was the weather network widget since she had this on her screen but after downloading i see that this is not what made the effect. When you want to select a shortcut or widget on the home screen with this effect you have to tap twice to disengage the effect. Does anyone know of what widget or app im talking about because i really want this one!!!

I think Beautiful Widget is better than Fancy Pro
Hi guys,
I'm trying to get a perfect weather + clock/alarm widget for me. I've been using Fancy Widget for a while, it works fine for me (I can see weather info, I can see time, I can see when the next alarm rings), except there's no direct access to Alarm for it brings me to clock setting instead (and I need another tap to go to alarm).
I've looked at Beautiful Widget, but a bit hesitant to buy it due to some battery drain comments. Does Beautiful Widget drains battery significantly on Arcs? Can it access alarm directly from the widget?
Thank you In Advance.
Give GO Weather a go (pun very much intended) ... Been using it & it's quietly elegant.

Hmm... I still can't go to alarm directly from the widget. Or will it always be like that until I install 3rd party alarm app?
I'm using beautiful widgets and having no issue at all with battery life. Very happy with it.

Can it access stock alarm directly like the stock clock widget when you tap it ?
If it's not possible, I probably would just stick with the fancy widget.
Your could do that in the past, (asigning whatever app you like to different areas of the beautifull widget)
i have not used it for 6 months thou.

Does use automatic Geolocation?
I'm currently running beautiful widget and i'm quite happy with it...
Best weather widget IMO is snowstorm. Small, elegant, customisable, skinnable. Updates based on location. Accurate forecasts.
Decent digital clocks are a problem, though - most of them are pretty ugly looking to me. Quite like the small sony one that's built-in, if only it opened the clock/alarm apps when you clicked it...
+1 for snowstorm
For the clock use "glass widgets" which will allow you to choose which app to launch once you have clicked it

Ok so lately the past couple of days sense 3.0 has been really laggy on me, why i dont know so i switched back to my usual launcher pro. It is decent but for some reason it is the slowest on the 3d......it is even faster on my epic. So i switched to ADW and it is flying.....got it set up all nice and goody with everything........except one thing i have been trying to do is get the htc weather app to open up when you click on the weather icon on beautiful widgets. It absolutley will not work. It just continues to open up beautiful widgets own weather app. Is this app denied service by third parties or what? Anybody else able to do this? IK IK the weather included in beautiful widgets is decent but i like HTCs weather app better and why shouldnt i be able to use it just becasue im using adw.
Not a real answer, but if you click on one of the day forecasts at the bottom of beautiful widgets weather, it opens htc weather (at least for me with golauncher).

Exactly how it works for me too, and I use ADW.
The wording for weather application in the settings for Beautiful Widgets says, when you click on the 5-day forecast.

Ahhh. It does. Wierd. I never bothered to click them.......I guess thats good enough lol.
Been searching and am unable to find out if anyone knows how, or if it's even possible at all.... to alter the flip clock file to not show weather info. My weather through Accuweather is very badly off. I know you can do it through some widget style apps, but the few I've tried seemed laggy and killed the feel. If the HTC flip clock (.apk?) could be made to not have any weather info below it, it would still be fast since it's a straight from phone process, and still look cool....if not cooler. Just wondering. Imagine this clock without weather.
