[Q] Calendar Widget doesnt refresh and freeze - HTC One X+

Hi.
I tested 2 Calendar Widgets but the Problem is the same on both. So I think its a general Problem.
I place my Widget. Configure it.
Works fine. After a few hours I look at my Phone and see that its not up to date. So I try to click on it. Nothing. If i replace it, nothing changes. Really really strange.
EDIT: And when I turn my Phone off and on, the Widget isnt there anymore. What the hell is wrong there? Other Widgets working great.
Could someone help? Or have a better Idea to show me my Calendar on the Homescreen?
EDIT2: Nobody else have this problem? Tested another Widget. The same problem.

I have this issue only with beautiful widgets. I didn't care to add them one more time. I posted a bug with them, not sure if they will look.

Calendar widget

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...

Widgets not refreshing automatically

Hello. I just noticed that my weather widget and also my Hanping chinese widgets aren't refreshing bythemselves. I have to do it manually all the time.
Has anyone else noticed this kind of behavior in some widgets? I am not sure if its been doing this all the time or did it just start recently.
Could rooting and freezing some applications be the issue here?
I was wondering the same about the weather widget...

Using stock weather? It is really bad. Looks nice but never even locates me.
And this is embarrassing but non stock weather and also hangping seems to start refreshing now. Don't know why
I've got the same problem with the Pulse News widget.
Would love to know the problem!

Widget Problems

Guys,
As seen from my screenshot I hope you all can help me out. The go sms widget is higher than the rest of the applications and the text has a black background. I don't have any other apps that I'm using. How can I get this widget to align properly? I've tried handcent's widget and it does the same thing. Is this an evo software issue? An application issue? Or an issue on my end that I can fix somehow?
Thanks!

Need really quick help - Market/Youtube Widget

Hi all,
I just would like to ask someone to spare literally 2 seconds of their time and drop the market/youtube widget onto their homescreen (the widget thats like layered and staggered) and once its on your home screen, flick the home screen to the next screen along (either direction) but do it VERY SLOWLY.
Now, out of curiosity, do little dots or lines appear on the widget?
Thanks

I uploaded a video of the problem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCckl3fluZg
(Watch it in atleast 720p to properly see it)
If anyone can doublecheck against theirs thatd be great
You need more confirmation?
try another launcher.
I no longer have the tab at hand and won't do until after christmas.
Can no one else look at the video I made and tell me if they get anything similar?
No one? Really?
Well, I noticed them. However they are faint and appear only when scrolling rrreallly slow... So, what? Do you have any info that this means faulty H/W? I think that it is launcher related.
Edit: Used adw and the problem is gone. Plus the widget looks better.

You get them too?
I don't think it means faulty hardware, that's why I was trying to confirm if anyone else had it.
But it seems its launcher related! Thanks!
Anyone else got any input?

[Q] Google Now Widget gone . . . ?

is it just me, or has everyone else lost the ability to have the google Now widget on one of their screens?
It was working fine but now it's gone.
I tried to add it back and the widget it 4x4 and wont fit
I swear there used to be a 2x2 version but it's missing now.
what happened?

I simply resized my widget. I'm currently at 2 X 3. Using Apex shell, if that matters.

Hmmm
Well, I created a new home screen and was able to get the widget onto it, and then was able to resize it as you mentioned.
I dunno why it changed on me, but thanks to you I got it working.
Thanks
Clearly the issue was a problem between the screen and the chair.
I wish they would have let us have the widget at the top of the screen on all the home screens like you can in normal ICS/JB. I use it a lot.
