I'm running RootBox Android version 4.2.1 and the cLock widget does not display my calendar or weather. I had the same problem with the same widget on another CM10.1 ROM. Am I missing something to enable it or is it just not working?

Read this thread and got it working on the lockscreen. Still doesn't show the weather or calendar on the homescreens though. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2078205

Long press the widget to edit, then drag it down to extend it. If you have the options of calendar/weather enabled it will show them.
Download dash clock widget. Cool app. Shows time(obviously), weather, calender,gmail, texts and twitter updates. You can set it to show whatever you like

I am looking for a widget for my lock screen which will show unread mail via the stock email app (POP Hotmail accounts)
I have looked on the market and there are loads for gmail but can't seem to find anything for stock.
I have tried missed it! but that does display the correct string.
Anyone have any ideas?
Anyone?
I was looking for something similar myself recently and someone pointed out that the stock email icon (not the widget) i.e. long press>shortcuts>applications>Email) has an unread email counter on it and they were right

I think that was me. Glad it helped. Note it works with stock launcher only. Any other launcher just shows the icon.

I've noticed this counter in the app draw and on my main page but how do you add this apply shortcut to the lock screen?
I've tried adding the shortcut in widget locker but it just shows the icon and no counter

Yeah, I do not think that icon will work on any other launcher or screenlock app besides the stock touchwiz. You need to find something else.
The default mail on this phone and maybe android in general is not as good as GMail , that is the reality.

Does your lockscreen give you an option to unlock or camera?
If so that is AOSP and it won't work with the weather widget.
I am sure it can be fixed but I have no idea and haven't attempted.
If your not using it then no idea, I thought he kept the files for it to work.
Ya i am sorrry, i do have that screen
I have the Accuweather app and the AOKP lockscreen and the 1x4 wiget works fine. Or are you trying to use the weather wiget on the lockscreen? Try the 1x4 on the home screen and use no background collor...

There is a lockscreen weather widget included with the official builds.
Which is also in the Settings.apk for you to turn on and off but only works on Samsung lockcreen.
Your way is the only easy workaround as of now, I suggested it for others.

The Samsung (Circle) lock screen is an add on in the second post of the SHOstock2 thread. So if you want to use the weather on your lock screen you can change to the other lock screen. The clock position in the settings also only applies to the circle lock screen. You don't need the accuweather widget installed for the weather on the circle lock screen to work.

I really like the speedrom but like to have the stock clock weather widget. The weather app in the Rom doesn't work. Does anyone know how to add this or other similar widget? I tried some from the market and they are for one specific location.
Thanks.

Just how many of you droid users use widgets and do they serve you or phone any benefit to your usage.
Also what ones do you use.
And use i have an s3 and use some widgets.
I think this should belong to the android general forum... But I may be wrong.
Anyhow, I only use widgets that actually make my life easier. For example, the bookmarks widget saves me time to browse webs I often use. Metoffice gives me the weather on my home screen, and other toggles like flashlight and turn all sounds off can be done via the home screen without venturing into the abyss of settings

Quite a lot, I suppose. Except those who worry too much about their battery lives.
My widget-setup is pretty basic: big clock screen on the home page, google now toolbar, music player widget and a forecast widget.
Music player on homescreen (big) and lockscreen (small), calendar widget to check / edit upcoming events, UCCW with camera + clock / alarm settings + favorite contacts.
I just got one widget on my home screen which is the calendar widget (agenda view), not because of any battery saving, just because I do not use any others.
My music is controlled via headset (as I only listen over it), my profiles (loud, vibrate alarm etc.) are controlled via tasker, the clock I can see in the notification bar, controls for WiFi, Bluetooth etc. are in the notification drawer.
I would even say that I use the notification bar much more than I ever used widgets.
dont use those things a lot.
Great benefit...
Facebook, Twitter (Android pro widgets)
G+, email (stock widgets)
Calender (jorte widget)
weather clock (beautiful widget)
System tuner pro & Battery pro widgets
Audio control widget.
Using Greenify and temasek CM10.1 ROM and kernel. Battery life is way better than any Sammy ROM

Here is my setup!
Can you please tell me which music widget is that?? Looks awesome!

I'm mostly the standard big clock with weather, music player, search bar and full screen S planner. Been tempted to throw a flipboard one on though.

Hi to everyone, I just upgrade honor 7 with mm. I'm using nova launcher and I noticed that now all of my widget doesn't work well. For example clock doesn't work and the time doesn't go on. Can you help me? Thanks
just installed nova launcher (trial version) and clock works fine.....I am on B320...
I'm experiencing this too. Can see my clock widget and my real time at the top. Using Nova launcher with weather widget. Not sure is it due to marshmallow, or nova launcher or the widget itself.

When you unlock the phone the widget clock is synced with the phone´s clock. But if you maintain the screen on, as time goes by, the widget is not updated.
This happens with other phones and clocks/apps. Seems to be a "feature" and not a bug
Probably a energy or security restrain.
I fixed it going to advance setting in the app section and giving the permission to wake up the phone to keep running also when the screen is off To the widget. Now works fine
