Arrange a great variety of widgets to your lock screen!
Lockmix is a lock screen content provider application that offers a great variety of widgets to be pinned to your lock screen in a way similar to the start screen tiles. It turns your lock screen into a grid where you can pin multiple tiles, which are then updated regularly to display various information. Each widget can be independently moved around, resized or configured just like the tiles pinned to your start screen.
Not enough space on the lock screen? No problem, each widget can be also pinned to the start screen as a live tile.
The widget selection includes common widgets such as weather, news, appointments or battery, social network widgets Facebook and Twitter, uncommon widgets such as countdown, map, currency or RSS, and even fun widgets such as Chuck Norris facts, famous quotes or daily horoscope.
As background, you can choose Bing image of the day, astronomy image of the day, photos from 500px, solid color fill, custom image, or a collection of custom images that are rotated or shuffled regularly.
The application itself and a lot of the widgets are free. Other widgets can be purchased in-app (with trial).

DOWNLOAD
downloading right now....will be back with feedbacks...btw,where did u find it???looks cool....thanks
I have been using that for a long time, but it has some way to go still:
Pros:
- Looks good
- Able to update the location properly. When travelling, it actually updates the location accurately.
- Has a lot of skins and fonts to go with a lot of themes you might be using
- Free App
Cons:
- Memory use is very high. ~25MB. It was fixed in one of the versions (~8MB), but it is again back to 25.
- Day and night calculation is bugged. It will show the Sun icon during the night and vice-versa. The dev claimed to have fixed it, but, its not, for me.
- Local time showed in the weather forecast screen is off by half an hour. (Probably because I am in a GMT +x.30 Zone)
- Skins are just colour variations of the clock. I would have expected some 'proper' skins, and, the ability to change the colour via a picker.
Sorry (I need this word very often, but i mean it seriously)
Is there a widget like this (or even better), with 3D Flip clock and weather, which i can place on the desktop (i don't have the right word for the android screen), and when i tip with my finger on it, it shows the normal clock (Clock, Alarms..) options.
Thanks for your answers.
looks awesome will download
Like the title said, is there a weather widget that shows the hourly conditions as well as 5-7 day forecasts?
Thanks!
you can download HD widgets from the market that provides a big clock with weather and another widget with 5 or 7 days forecast but it will cost you 1,99€..
I have weather widgets right now and am using the template that has the clock and weatehr for one day only because it only took up half the space on my homescreen, the one with clock and 5 day weather takes up a whole page.
I downloaded the beta of Recast, and i really liked it.
It's out on the market now, i think i will buy it too.
It can be found here
I added a screenshot to show you what it looked like on my phone, just to give you an idea.
There are many widget layouts to choose from as well as different styles and additional styles you can download through the app.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If anyone's still looking, I made one - because I was annoyed that none of the weather widgets had a sensible hourly weather forecast.
Search Google Play for "Hourly Weather Widget" (exact title), its a couple rows down the results.
bbc weather is good!

I don't know if anyone came across this application before on their PC. It's basically that identical Sence Clock with the weather forecasts on it that many people like to have as a widget on their phones. Except this thing runs on the PC but isn't installed like the regular gadgets on windows 7 or in vista.

Each widget is a separate program and so each widget provides their own multiple set of styles
Plus there are add on that are provided to enable sounds, animations, change widget theme to weather condition, change desktop wallpaper to weather condition.
Being someone who constantly flashes his phone daily multiple times, sometimes more than a dozen times, its impossible to keep any configured settings for any layouts or styles for homescreen\app drawer. I just gave up on changing that stuff on my phone but it's surely a nice little thing to have on my desktop where I do a lot of work. It's a little slice of the playing with widgets on the phone and has a nice look to the widgets too. Plus it's nice to always know what the weather is going to be like and not look at the task bar to check the time.
Here is how I set it up on my desktop
Here is a demonstration on youtube of how it looks like when running
Just to state for the record that I am not taking any credit for anything relating to this software application that respectively reserves the rights of the it's developer. I just ran into this application somewhere online and thought it was interesting to throw on my desktop since I spend more time on it than on the phone. It's the best looking widget with the best most useful options available from all the gadgets available for Windows 7 that I think are useless. So I'm just sharing this find with anyone else that's wanted to have this type of gadget on the desktop in win 7 but can't find a nice one to keep on the desktop without being annoyed by it soon after.
I liked the graphics and general orientation of buttons towards the bottom of the screen on the "Stage" theme (provided by Themer, designer unknown), but was missing a couple of things for me (which I added and/or changed):

Updated
Made various tweaks and improvements.
The biggest change is the bar below the main circle area is now doubled, which made it easier to hit the shortcuts to the categories, read the music playing, and added additional days and info in the weather forecast.

Weather Underground has long been the best weather app in the entire world. Even China! Recently they got a massive overhaul and redesigned the entire app. With a new user interface, you'll love the way information is displayed. Who said charts and numbers have to be boring? This app is a great example of how you can take a lot of data and pair it with a great design. Check out these screenshots.
Right on your front page, you'll be able to see the weekly forecast, the amount of daylight hours for the current day, visibility, humidity and you can even listen to the weather broadcast system for your area.
Of course any decent weather app will come with some sort of widget for your homescreen. WU has some great widget options that look just as good as the app UI.
If you're looking for a fantastic weather app, give Weather Underground a try. It's also worth a look even if you're just checking it out to see the new design.

The redesign is the major reason many stopped using it or never updated it.
I wish they would make it have all the important info on one screen without need to scroll...
-top 1/2 weather map, animated by default, remember my preferred zoom and center postion (current map is a too small)
-middle 1/4 current temp and conditions
-bottom 1/4 5 day forecast
