Hi,
Coming from HTC Sense and really miss the 4x1 Weather + Clock widget that used the current location. Something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've been googling for a replacement but haven't found a widget that matches my requirements yet.
Thankful for any suggestions.
EDIT: Need the current location to show in the widget, so I know what the time is based on.
Check out HD widgets from the play store. You can pretty much configure every kind of widget including 4x1 clock and weather.

Hey there, of all the different widgets Id say using UCCW would be the best it allows you pick from hundreds of themes and you can get the HTC one as well

Thank you for tip!
I like the widget and its possible settings. However, is there no 4x1 widget for BOTH weather and clock? That was one of my hard requirements.
Does the full version include it?
EDIT: Think I missed how to change the widget type. Found one that had both weather and clock. Liked it. Paid. Thanks.

Is it possible to add other weather conditions to Sense? Today for example it comes across as "Dreary". I was like, WTF does that mean - weather-wise? I looked it up - it's an adjective: Dull, bleak, and lifeless; depressing. Anyway, I would not characterize the weather as that - it's more dusty than anyting. When I looked at my Rainmeter desktop I see it gives me more of an accurate weather reading - "Blowing Dust" - it pulls from weather.com. Is there a way to add other weather types like this? Or change where Sense is pulling it's weather information form?

I'm afraid you have to put up with the dreary weather
There are quite some third party weather apps, but the built-in HTC one is not hackable as far as I know

That's what I figured. Been using Sense, since it was TouhFlo, so I figured I've give XDA a shot. If they haven't hacked it, no one has...

1) The clock you see is called Simiclock. It is free, Play around with the settings to get it to look like you want.
For transparency go to:
Settings > Background Color > Alpha 0%
To add the battery indicator on the right go to
Settings > Battery Settings> Click *Display Battery*
Note: The divider you see is attached to Simiclock! (Not the weather!)
The desired look of the divider between the weather is made by
resizing SimiClock over the weather widget! (Using LauncherPro)
2) The weather widget is a part of Beautiful Widgets
Hope this help

I need help finding this widget. It has the top weather, location, alarm on it. I flashed ICS on my note and it didn't save in Titanium backup. If someone knows what widget is at the top could you post the name of it please. thanks
Looks pretty sweet! I wouldn't mind using it as well.
I cant find it exactly, but I can say with a tweak of the font, and some super customization I was able to get everything on that widget with Minimalistic text excluding the next alarm and the exact font.
All the () and / would need to be inserted as static text when setting it up but it is feasible if Minimalistic text somehow supports alarms that i cant see.
Ultimate Custom Clock Widget
thanks.

Like the title said, is there a weather widget that shows the hourly conditions as well as 5-7 day forecasts?
Thanks!
you can download HD widgets from the market that provides a big clock with weather and another widget with 5 or 7 days forecast but it will cost you 1,99€..
I have weather widgets right now and am using the template that has the clock and weatehr for one day only because it only took up half the space on my homescreen, the one with clock and 5 day weather takes up a whole page.
I downloaded the beta of Recast, and i really liked it.
It's out on the market now, i think i will buy it too.
It can be found here
I added a screenshot to show you what it looked like on my phone, just to give you an idea.
There are many widget layouts to choose from as well as different styles and additional styles you can download through the app.

If anyone's still looking, I made one - because I was annoyed that none of the weather widgets had a sensible hourly weather forecast.
Search Google Play for "Hourly Weather Widget" (exact title), its a couple rows down the results.
bbc weather is good!

The original Honor weather/clock widget doesn't work with another launcher like Nova Launcher or Google Now Launcher.
Is there a way to fix this?

Nope. This widgets are only for EMUI launcher.
So it's absolutely impossible to get this on Nova Launcher? Because the blue weather widget from the 'Home screen style - Simple' works fine (but I don't like this design).
I have updated to B330 and the widget is a bit changed. Now I got the line in the middle + date.
Is there a way to customize something to give permission for the location and temperature?
Ok, finally I found an acceptable solution
It's a look-a-like widget and not 100% the same, but close enough to the original. You'll need XWidget from the Play Store and then select 'Huawei CW Widget' in the app.
On my homescreen I have linked it to the official Honor Clock app when I tap the widget.
I made a small video to show how it works. You can create hotspots and link it to an app or something. I made a hotspot for the time to open the Clock app and for the weather I use the XWidget AccuWeather settings.

I hope this helps. I'm also trying Nova and can't use Huawei weather app, so after installing many apps from Google Play (annoying ads, or with extra useless info, or pricey), I decided to try other brands' stock weather apps from APK Mirror: Samsung failed, Xiaomi failed, Oppo failed, but Azus stock weather app worked like a charm. Precise and concise weather info, without ads, with a nice widget (Nova compatible, of course), etc.. Give it a try.
Perhaps, the only drawback is that there are only two 4x2 widgets... But something is something.
