I was wondering how do i get the battery meter and how do i get my lock screen to spell out everything like the date,time,battery life etc? do i have to mod my phone? or is there another way to do it.
Any info would be great thanks.
LOL! Never seen them before!
Battstat, tajm and the lockscreen is probably widget locker...
That lockscreen looks like the epic lockscreen, both of the most used custom ROMS being Frakintwiz and Bionix both have 4 lockscreens to choose from, but if you want to go stock then the best option is to buy widget locker, I use it, love it you can do many things with it, and have widgets on it. The weather is from beautiful widget by the looks of it. both are paid apps in the market.
BattStat and tajm are the battery and clock widgets on the lockscreen. Not exactly sure on the lockscreen but my best guess would be widget locker with the single unlock button. Weather widget looks like GenieWidget but with a transparent background.

again battstatt is the text battery meter, free btw.
Widget locker is the lockscreen, you can add custom backgrounds, slider locks, widgets, and shortcuts to your lockscreen, Beautiful widgets would be the weather/time widget your seeing on the screen.
that Bg is pretty sweet i need to find that.
I take it back beautiful widgets is not that weather widget.
this is what mine looks like.
Hi,
I have Accuweather widget and want to add it to my homescreen using the option add widget with ADW Launcher EX. The problem is when I do Add Widget it open the widget configuration instead of letting me place de widget, like all other widgets do.
Is there a way to make it add that widget to the screen instead of opening the configuration like it does ?
Thanks in advance
I just love the default weather widget for Samsung Galaxy S3. Problem is that when I change to Nova Launcher, the weather widget is not available from the widget list! What can I do to get the default weather widget in Nova Launcher? Must I switch to Apex or another launcher? :S
The default weather widget is part of Samsung's TouchWiz so when you change launchers you lose it. Going to another launcher other than Touchwiz will still not give you access to that widget.
You might try some of the widget programs like Beautiful Widgets in the market. They might have similar weather widgets. I know on my Rezound I use Beautiful Widgets for my HTC Sense style weather/clock when I run Nova.
Is there any way???? i need the weather widget in my apex launcher...

Doesn't look like it, I want the s planner widget but that too isn't available without touchwiz.

Yep, you only get the 'Calendar' widget.
The touchwiz widget apks are system apps. If some brilliant mind could pull them from system/app and (somehow) convert them to installable user apps, we would be able to use them with any launcher.
I'm not sure if this is even feasible...any takers;-)

Partially true…
On my Galaxy Tab P5100 with stock 4.1.2 and Nova launcher, the Accuweather widget was working flawleslly. It is a case, that it is partly a part of the system, because when pressed, it opens a full screen application...
Now, on 4.2.2 Nova can't pick it up anymore

That is inaccurate.
On my Galaxy Tab S2 the built-in Weather app used to provide both of its widgets to Nova Launcher without any problems: both the wide "clock & weather" widget and the small "weather only" widget were available in Nova. I had that classic Samsung's widget it on my screen in Nova for several years now. However, in my case just recently (around the beginning of November, I think) the wide "clock & weather" widget suddenly became unavailable in Nova Launcher.
The small "weather only" widget is still available in Nova Launcher though. When I switch to TouchWiz, I see two widgets under the built-in Weather app. But in Nova I see only one - the small one. This is a recent change.
I have no idea why "clock & weather" disappeared in Nova, but "widget is part of Samsung's TouchWiz" and "touchwiz widget apks are system apps" theories obvioulsy don't hold any water. Anyone?
I can't seem to find xiaomi signature clock widget on nova launcher :3
Maybe they've restricted the use of it on other launchers. Any idea how to get it on nova launcher?
Maybe a zooper skin or anything?
I really like the default clock & weather widget in the Samsung Experience launcher. But, even though Samsung has come a long way with their launcher, I prefer Nova. I had heard, somewhere, there's a way to get a Samsung Experience clock/weather copycat widget to use in a 3rd party launcher, but I can't seem to find it in the Play Store.
So, what do you "other launcher" users use as your favorite weather & clock widget? Do any of you know the "copycat" widget I'm referring to?
Zooper widget, pixup theme
