Hi !
Since I interested myself in homescreen customization, I noticed that most of the widget app for zooper widget like unity widget had a lot of widgets who don't really have other widgets to go with so I created them myself...
Because of the time it takes some of you will not have the time to do it so I thought I could do it for you
So all you have to do if you want your complementary widget is to take a screenshot of your entire homepage with your widget and send it to me, tell me what infos you'd like to see in your widget and send it to me ! AND DON'T FORGET TO TELL ME IN WHAT LANGUAGE YOU WANT YOUR WIDGET !
If you don't want to have surprises, some of the complementary widgets I made are linked below
(The originals are the upper ones)
Oh, and don't forget if I helped you to put a little thanks below

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.

Widget Picker is an app that Romanbb exposed me to. It is extremely small in size, but does wonders for Type A's like me.
Below is a video to demonstrate what I mean.
If you want it included in a ROM, let the developer know.
If you want to just download it and move to system/app like I did in the video (you see how easy it is)... you can go to THIS THREAD
Nice one, I've been looking for something like this! Will install it when I get the chance
Thanks!
Confirmed working, thanks a lot for this!
(Galaxy Task v10)
Thank you
Downloading now

can you add an explanation to the OP about what this does that's different (and improved) from what's built in?

The video makes shows it very nicely.
Basically, it groups widgets up, so instead of having something like this when you add widgets:
ASUS Weather Widget
Beautiful Battery 1x1
Beautiful Home Weather
Beautiful Smaller Home Weather
Beautiful SuperClock 2x1
Beautiful SuperClock 4x1
Beautiful SuperClock 4x2
...
Beautiful Weather 1x1
Beautiful Weather 4x1
Bookmarks
It would look something like this:
ASUS Weather Widget
Beautiful widgets (14 widgets)
Bookmarks
So it groups up the same types of widgets, making it easier to search through them.
Watch the video to see exactly what I mean...

A must... Should be in every ROM.
Just so people know, this app/mod works with the CM9 ICS ROMs available on here!

I'm testing Widget Picker 2 for HC/ICS. loving it so far.
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 have been a zooper widget fan for awhile now but been frustrated by the lack of available widgets out there. Well themer has provided me with a wealth of skins and widgets now and just like the spaceship on independence day, everything has just come alive.
Let me elaborate. For those that are new to zooper, it's a widget customization tool. You can pretty much make anything you like. It's best to start with a template and then move on. But templates are limited.
Themer is a launcher that encompasses zooper themes. Eacher themer theme is basically a unique launcher.
What i have been able to do is this: long press on any theme in themer and click ADVANCED then ULOCK widget. This frees you to then long press and configure it. You can then use the Zooper (within themer) to save your widget/theme/launcher settings. Then go back to your launcher (TW/ADW/NOVA), fire up a zooper widget and open the layout from your SD card for the theme you saved in themer. Now you have the same fun screens of themer, but with the flexibility of it being a screen.
With this, I have pulled out calendar widgets and placed them within my normal screen (keeping the ADW interface), pulled out music widgets to place beautifully on parts of the screen never intended, and more.

You'll have to read and learn that's the best solution imho. It seems that this snapshot is a mix of UCCW + Zooper Widget + an icon pack. Bunchs of tutorials & templates are available on XDA for UCCW and Zooper.

The launcher is likely Nova or Apex and there is an icon pack applied however it would be nearly impossible to tell you which icon pack it is without asking the phone's owner or scouring the Playstore or XDA or elsewhere for hours and hours.
That vertical calendar widget is defintely from Zooper Widget. You can download the app for free in the Playstore. The vertical calendar comes with it and it is called UpCalendar. Once Zooper is installed add a 2x4 widget to your screen and choose that UpCalendar widget
That clock widget may be Zooper as well but I agree with Primokorn that it may be UCCW. You'll have to search for it. Another option for a clock is to use the Playstore App called Zooper Widget Gallery. It will show you a lot of other clocks that are really nice as well.
Also, there is a really cool website called My Color Screen that has beautiful home screens and phone themes and they have step by step tutorials telling you exactly what to download and how to configure the widgets, icon packs, launchers, etc. I highly recommend checking the site out and trying out some of the themes so you can get an idea of how to customize your phone and make it look pretty :silly:
