What clock(/weather) widget do you use on your home screen?
Any widgets from other devices that you wish you could have?

I was using just the 4x1 clock that came with sense but I've started to play with uccw and I'm hooked on this widget. I just wish we'd get a weather fix.

Ultimate Custom Clock Widget, huge thread with skins right here on XDA.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Just picked up one more click widget, so far I like it. Lots of different skins, and then you can move stuff around and adjust colors.

not sure what UCCW and others are going to do now that google has shut down the weather api (apparently it ain't coming back). Maybe link to accuweather?
I'm using stock sense 3.6 right now because I don't like to add bloat when the phone already does it.
Used beautiful widgets in the past and it was eating battery for some reason. When using de-sensed ROMs I use weatherbug for weather widget and a digital clock widget for a clock.
Sense 4.0 4x1 at the moment on ViperRez. When I ran AOSP on my DInc, I used Sense Analog Clock Widget; had the larger-style clock, with weather built-in.

I'm really hoping for an accuweather link. I just started using UCCW alittle over a week ago and it rocks. Takes alittle bit to learn but once you do, oh the possibilities...

BeWeather Pro 4x2 widget with clock - because it was on sale.
I use BeWeather, preferring the 4x1 weather widget with clock
I use 1Weather app. I don't like the on screen widget but you can place it in your notification bar.

I use the Sense 4 widget when on RezRom, but on AOSP I like using Fancy Widgets.
Fancy Widget Pro will let you choose from several weather providers, which is nice since WeatherBug seems to be the most accurate in my area.
Whats wrong with UCCW weather? I just started using it last night and I dont see a problem
Hd widgets is pretty sweet, u can make an inverted sense 4 clock

Do you use Google Now? I just activated it on Vigor 360, and now One More Clock Widget is showing weather. Could be the key?

I use SimiClock. Hasn't been updated in ages, but provides a number of configurations, customization, and an embedded launcher.
Tapatalk made me confess "My name's Harold and I'm a flashaholic...."
i use Ultimate custom clock widget. :good:
Am I the only one that actually likes the stock clock? I just love how it actually flips. I always try abunch of other clocks but the part that they don't flip brings me back to the sense clocks.

Have you tried opening the Android Market and searching for clock widget? Last I checked there were hundreds of them.

I think HTC's clock/weather widget is by far the best, but for a good alternative, check out Beautiful Widgets in the Market.
Ok I will, didnt know the market have that, thank you for the post.

the only complaint about the stock one is after awhile it looks kinda plain... I love BW just for how much you can customize it, this is the 4th phone I have put it on
Here are some nice widgets to check out:
BattStatt - nonclock
Beautiful Widgets (well worth the money via the market)
Desktop Visualizer - nonclock
Extended Controls - nonclock
One Seven - day of the week
SwitchPro - nonclock
Tajm - text based clock
TypoGraph - text based clock
Not a widget per se, but I'm a new convert to LauncherPro as a substitute app launcher. Its truly awesome and highly customizable.
Let me know if you have any problems finding them.
Also try out Fancy Widget Pro. Best HTC clock replacement in my opinion.

I can't stand how the Samsung Cal widget starts on Monday. However, it is the only widget that I have found that is 5x5. What do you use?
If you run go launcher they have an awesome calendar widget that is theme-able. Think ICS yo

If you change the pref to Monday and then back to Sunday, the widget will update itself.

You're right about this. It worked.
How do I get the stock Samsung Calendar widget onto one of my home screens? Is it even possible to have the calendar as a widget? I don't see the option. I would like it to display the full month.

I believe the stock Samsung Calendar widgets are only available in the stock launcher. If you are using the stock launcher then just add it like any other widget.

Hey I just switched over from Sense to CM10 nightlies on the HTC EVO 4G LTE. I want a widget like a clock/weather on sense. Something like that. I'm not a fan of the default JB analog clock.
Thanks!
There are plenty of Sense widget clones. Just search "sense 4 clock widget" on Google.
Only difference is that they don't have the flip animation. But you only see that every minute so I don't think it really matters.

Can you think of a nice looking widget with weather and time or maybe just time? It doesn't have to be sense like.
Here ya go.

Or if you don't like this then download 2 apps from Play store called Beautiful widgets and HD Widgets for clocks.

What is the best weather widget? As stock razr widget sucks
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
Free widgets or paid? for me im using HD widgets best customization IMO. also beautiful widgets are not bad as well
I have the Met Office installed - that comes with 2 widgets
Try "one more clock free". You can have this Chrome rings clock/weather widget that looks exactly the same as one from new razrs. except for fliping rings
I use the circle one ripped from the Atrix HD.
I like Fancy Widgets. No conflicts, updates smoothly. Easily customizable appearance.

Agreed! You can build whole new clock-weather widgets from the default ones. I think it's not a specific weather widget, but kind a cool and quite stable. Recommended!:good:

HD Widgets
HD Widgets is on sale right now .99. It's on par with BW and it's weather widget will use Weatherbug data.
This is going to seem like a weird one, but I can't find the stock widget that's used for clock and weather when I use Nova launcher. Anyone have the file or know where to find it? Thanks.

I have two clock widgets when I look at adding a widget to nova, I don't know if one of mine was added by an app or if they are both default nova. If you can tell me where to pull a file from I'd be happy to help. Otherwise I'm not totally sure what you can do. I am still fairly new to this launcher.
Good luck, let me know what I can do to help.
I had the same problem... Ended up just getting Timely and using their widget
Sent from my LG-V500 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
This is an ever-returning problem for all 3rd party Launchers. TouchWiz, Sense and whatever LG is calling their UI all have widgets that are only compatible with their respective launchers. Install all you want, they still wont show up outside of the stock LG Launcher. You can usually find some that look much the same and some times a genious comes along and ports the widgets. You could try heading over to the G2 forums, I suspect there's more life over there, maybe their "Themes and Apps" forum has a ported edition. Who knows.

I did the same thing - use the Timely widget. With Nova I could overlap it with the Yahoo weather widget so that they look like one thing.
My other virtually-the-same-thing clock widget choice is Chronus
