I don't know how can I have a clock and a weather widget with this rom. I had to download a weather widget from good play, but it doesn't automatically change the time and weather when I move to a different place. I need a OEM widget built in this room. How can I find it.

There are a lot of widgets on the play store, some for free, some for $$$ but the ones I have tried always seem to adjust to the time zone when the time and date configuration are set up correctly, and you need to have location services enabled for weather to change to your current location, also some widgets have either a static setting for location or can be set to use location services.
Try fancy widgets! It's worked for me very well on these roms.

Fancy widgets is very close to beautiful widgets , but it's also free.
All in all. I think that is about the biggest thing I love about sense. Which also means if cm10 or 10.1 gets stable for the amaze,I'll just use fancy widgets and go aosp.

anyone know which music app allow us to choose the song for our ringtone. Google play music can't do that.
Just create a file in media/audio/ringtones
Then drop your songs in there. If you want to create ring tones then get an app called Ring DROID or you can use G-Tunes

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

+1 for the business calendar widget, or there is also android agenda widget, which is pretty customizable, and will also scroll if the launcher you are using supports that....
If you just want a list of upcoming appointments, Agenda Widget is awesome. Very customizable, though it takes some work to get it just the way you want. In just a 4x1 space on my screen I can see my next 4 appointments, with little bullets next to them telling me which calendar they are from.

Eh? Am I missing some detail about this question? My device has 2 calendar widgets pre-installed: Agenda and Today. Agenda takes up most of a home screen and scrolls to display lots of calendar appts; Today just shows the current/next appt for the current day.
is there really no month view calendar widget for tw launcher that links up with google calendar?
i have tried go launcher ex and the calendar widget on that is perfect, but i want to run tw launcher instead.
i dont want to add agenda or today widget because i want a month view. any suggestions?

This is a list of bloatware removed from the Cognition ROM:
http://ponack.net/designgears/Cognition777/removed/
The TwCalendarAppWidget.apk listed there has a month view. I believe it's from the Euro SGS2 version of Touchwi but not sure. Anyway, replace the corresponding app on your phone with the one from the link. Worked for me on UnNamed 1.3.1.
Attachment so you can see what it looks like. Not bad.
thanks!
do you know which folder it goes in?
is is possible to theme?
/system/app
same one as your current TwCalendarAppWidget.apk should be in. It should be possible to theme using all the normal tools, apk manager etc.
EDIT: OK, now you got me curious. I was able to decompile, edit some XML and recompile without problems, so yes, I'd say it definitely is possible to theme it. FWIW, I changed the first day of the week to Sun (normally Mon.). I might do a full flashable mod with different themes and what not. But it will take me at least a week b/c I am busy with stuff. No promises!
EDIT 2: Oh, never mind, my changes were superficial. All I did was change the day of the week label, not the display of the widget. Still a good project. Not sure at this point if it is above my head...
EDIT 3: Ok, now this is just getting embarrassing. Using the apk I linked to, all you have to do it go into the Touchwiz Calendar app, go to preferences, and set your First day of the week preference. Widget should reflect this change, otherwise, delete and re-add widget and it should be there!
I SWORE I tried this before and it didn't work.

Pure Grid Calendar is absolutely gorgeous. I have a month view on my lock screen and a week view 4x4 on one of my homescreens.
It pulls from multiple google calendars and displays duration bars corresponding to your events.
Simply stunning. Hands-down one of my best app purchases.

Unfortunately, if it's anything like Sense, then the stock Motorola widgets are only accessible when using the stock Motorola launcher. Basically, they are integrated into the Launcher and it's not possible to run them on a third-party solution.

Favorite Contacts is only available with the stock launcher, I believe.
Almost all of the stock widgets do work with third party launchers. Interestingly, they look like they did in earlier versions of Blur, without the 'chrome' of the Gingerbread BlurHome (the dark blue with gaudy glow animation).
The exception is the favourite contacts widget, which 'works' in the sense that you can place the widget on a screen, but it's invisible.
Genuine question here - aside from the scrolling email widgets and the favourite contacts widget (which is bloated) the Blur widgets are the worst I have ever used on any variety of Android. Half of them don't even launch anything when tapped. Sense, Touchwiz, Timescape/Mediascape, every OEM skin with its own widget set has been more functional than this, even if it's not my cup of tea.
What gives with MotoBlur, and what do people see in it? I swear Moto know it's awful, why else would they automatically set the first third party launcher you install as default?

Hey guys,
I have an international htc one x+ running stock 4.2.2 not unlocked not rooted.
I have widget lockscreen enabled with brilliant quotes applied as the widget. Now when i play music from the htc music app the lockscreen gets the small 4x1 music widget to switch tracks through lockscreen. This is all fine when am using the htc sense as the default launcher.
But for some reason when i use Aviate or themer beta and play my tracks from these launchers or even access the music app from these launchers the music widget no longer appears on the lockscreen or when it does it just not responds. This also happens when i use the dashlock extension.
Its getting pretty annoying because i want to try these launchers and extensions
Any help would be appreciated greatly. Thanks. Cheers!

I think you should ask the developers of these tools. I'm sure you are not the only one facing this problem, so I'm sure they can help you more.
I was having trouble with a few launchers so i assumed it was a one x+ bug.. :/
Sent from my HTC One X+ using Tapatalk
Of course it can be a bug made by HTC. They heavily changed some Android code and thanks to it now we have "bugs for free". For example, the default android widget lockscreen allows you to place many widgets on the screen. HTC's modification allows only one widget + it will be hidden if there is no network, low battery or music being played .
You should still ask the app developers about this. Maybe they will at least response "yeah we know it. Blame htc".

But if you want to change the music track which is actually playing... Why even unlock the screen? I saw some apps for controlling the music player without unlocking the screen like "wave a hand over the phone to change the track" or "use volume buttons to switch songs".
