I have tried dozens I can't find a calendar widget. I want something big (100 panel at 320dpi) nice earth tones no transparency and events spelled out
Basically I want the stock touch wiz widget (about the only thing I like from touchwiz) alas that widget is not available outside touchwiz grr I run launcher prime.
Any suggestions? Basically I want this (attached) for a single month as a nearly full screen widget.
Simple calendar widget is close (second attachment) but it lists at bottom not "in" the calendar but that is how I want to use it. That is 4 4 stretched to I think 8 or something like that do needs to be scalable.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe the touchwiz widget hacked ?

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to display my upcoming apointments on the lockscreen. I heard there was a app that could do this, but I forgot the name and I can't find the link anymore at the forum it was posted. I found some other apps but they don't seem to work with sense.
If somebody knows a way to do this, please tell me. Opening the calander is annoing and I want to see what I got coming up when I wake up the phone. The screen is just being empty anyway
why dont you place calendar widget on the main screen? the same thing, but you just have to unlock the phone..
Because there is not enough room. I got the clock/weather thing there and 8 shortcuts to the apps I use most (phone, contacts, internet etc) so there is no room left to place a widget. I now got the small calender widget on the next panel along with apps I user a bit less often. Its not ideal but I guess I have to manage as I learned creating a lockscreen app is pretty much impossible as there are no options for this in the SDK.
For me it works a lot better to have it on the lockscreen because that way I can see what appointments I got without having to do anything. I will see it everytime I turn on the phone which is a great way not to forget.
Is is worth to find a room for 4x1 widget and you can use e.g. "Agenda Widget". In 4x1 widget it's showing 4 next appointments and for me it is great.
That might work. What is the name? If I search agenda widget in the market I can only find things like calender widget.
Even if the topic is old, I think that others looking for it can find it useful. In my opinion, this the best calendar/appointment widget set. A lot of customizations and flexibility.

I'm looking for a simple agenda/calendar widget that is scrollable, links to stock calendar when clicked, and can be size 4x2.
I really like how the stock Agenda widget looks and works, but can't figure out how to get to settings or re-size it from full-screen to 4x2.
Is this possible or whats my best alternative? I did some looking through the marketplace for other apps/widgets, but really like the stock one the best.
Thanks!
The size of a widget must be programmed by the developer. If there were a 4 x 2 Agenda widget, there would be more than one icon in the widget list when you install the widget.
Evidently, the developers concluded that you need the full screen space to accomodate all your agenda items.
Is it possible to have upcoming events from the calendar on the lockscreen?
I'd like to keep teh TW lockscreen.
Maybe via modding? eg replacing the stocks ticker or the news ticker?
Does anyone know if this would be possible?
up , i need this option

I know you want to keep the TW lockscreen...but alternatively, I use Widget Locker lockscreen with Android Agenda Widget. (back since my HD2 days)
TRUST ME...I have owned widget locker for several years and watched it progress. It runs absolutely FLAWLESS on my S3. It has TONS of options/switches to make your every scenario happen without glitches. And there are so many choices for sliders etc.
Anyway, Agenda Widget has many options as well....actually so many it can be quite confusing. I have it listing my next 6 calendar events with TODAYS current events bold and brighter. So when I turn my screen on....that's 1 single button push....I can see my days events...if I have them. To me, this si fast and efficient.
I keep a Handcent widget on it for reading my recent text message...again...1 click....and several sliders including one that opens my camera for quick scenario photo taking. Widgets are overlap-able and resizable etc. (I am not affiliated...just proud)
Widget locker has only one bug which is very annoying.
If you get a Msg, and you've set the Pop Up to come, try unlocking the screen.
The pop up would display for a very short time before WL.
This doesn't happen with TW lockscreen.

Hello guys,
I'm looking for this Weather Widget, an online friend of mine has a LG Maximo 2x with this widget (see attachment, since I can't publish outside link because I'm a recent user)
This is the animation that opens when she tap the widget on me phone desktop.
She told me this is Accuweather version, but I can't find it . (maybe it isn't accuweather, I only know what she told me).
This app also allows sharing with social networks.
I would really like to find it. Please help me.
:fingers-crossed:
It is accuweather, since it displays RealFeel temperature, which is a trademark of accuweather. However, it is different than the accuweather widget we have for touchwiz. It is probably specific to whatever framework the LG phones use.
Nifty little widget there. Me likie.

This is the Accuweather widget, as stated above, but there is a difference between this widget and the widget that comes pre-installed on your S2. The pre-installed widget takes up half the screen and does virtually nothing if you press it. The widget in your picture is available after you download the "Accuweather for Android" app from Google Play.
After you have installed that app, add the plain Accuweather widget to whatever screen you want (!!!not the Accuweather.COM widget!!!) and you should have a very similar, if not identical, widget to what your friend has.
Keep in mind, though, that the picture you posted will only show up after you press the widget for more details. The actual widget is very small and has no animation.
I have AccuWeather for Android installed and that is definitely NOT the widget from it.
It has two, and neither one is the one in that screenshot. Its got the original dark grey 4x1 widget and a new, rather ugly and seriously battery killing, 4x2 with the weather and a clock.
As said, its probably a custom version done for LG just like Samsung has their own.
Not sure what you expect the stock TW AccuWeather widget to do when you touch it. It opens up the Samsung AccuWeather app just fine for me, just like the one from the Play Store opens its respective app.

The only one Accuweather for Android that appears on the GooglePlay is that Accuweather.com (wich is ugly, its the black one with no animation at all).
I really can't find that Accueweather for Android.
The imagem attached is the Accuweather for Android.
Hmm
Well I have the GoWeather Ex widget that is pretty similar to that one, maybe you should try that one out buddy.

I really like what google has brought to the table to compete with siri. Google now is a really useful add on to android, however with the HTC one, i am having problems with the appearance of the widget. I made a new page for my homescreen and put in the google now widget. The widget page that comes up says that the widget is 4x4 and will take up the whole screen. However, when I place the widget on the page, it only displays 2, single, 4x1 cards, the traffic and the weather. I tried going into the settings to see if I could customize is so that I could rearrange the order, or possibly have the weather card be 4x2, but it does not seem like you can. Am i missing something, or is there anything I can do to fix this?
I had the same issue. The sense launcher seems to handle widget sizes really weird. I had a single icon widget with a unread counter on it, it wouldn't line up with other icons. Swap to Nova launcher and everything works as expected.

You can actually resize it to 4x1 easily after it's dropped on the screen. But you're right, it's weird.
