Favorite contacts? - Desire General

Hi,
Anyone know a nice widget for favorite contacts?
HTC has "People Widget", but you cannot re-arrange to have the 9 favorite contacts on top.
Thanks

I ended up using "Person Widget", add one by one. It is nice though, but the photo is too small.

[Q] Transparent Calender

I have the SGS and I would like to get a semi transparent calender for it like the HTC.
I think this is a beautiful calender and looks much better then the standard SGS calender.
Where can I get this.
Don't know about the HTC type calendar, but I use 'Smooth Calendar' available free from the Market. The widget can be set to transparent and shows your appointments in an agenda format list.

Pure Grid Calender looks like the HTC one and is skinable and every skin you can control the transparency level on.

I like pure calendar as it can be made smaller - really good apps both of them!
Thanks
I'll look into both of them

[Q] Blank Scrollable Widget

Does a "blank canvas" widget exist? I really like the contacts widget I currently have but would like to drop them into a widget to scroll through them instead of placing them directly on the screen. Hope that makes sense. I know there are contact widgets on the market that do that, but the style and look of Animated Widget Contact looks really clean to me. Thanks for the help!

Replacement for Sense/LauncherPro Calendar Widget

I just flashed MIUI and really like it. But I'm upset about my missing calendar widget. Does anyone know of an aesthetically pleasing, full page calendar/agenda widget akin to Sense's? Thanks.
Actually, maybe a better idea. Is there a way to theme launcherpro to look like miui launcher?
I use LauncherPro with MIUI but I hate the look of the LP Widgets. I use Android Agenda Widget for my calendar. There are a bunch of skins for it and you can customize it pretty much any way you want. It's free too which is always a plus.

I use Smooth Calendar agenda widget (it's 1x4) and Jorte Calendar (3x4) monthly view widget. Both are free in the market and sync with my Google calendar. This combination takes up an entire screen and gives me everything I need at a quick glance.

I use Colorize Widget myself
another one here for smooth calendar, i have it show 3 events and you can tell it to use what calendars and what apps to run off of
I appreciate all the replies, I actually downloaded each widget suggested... but none of them quite did it for me :/
I love the aesthetic of colorize, but there is no calendar and it seems like it doesn't sync with google?
I liked the functionality of jorte, but man, thats an ugly widget, even when i switched over to black. (white is hideous)
Smooth calendar is cool, except I really want a full screen widget.
Oh well, it looks like I'm switching back to LauncherPro, that calendar widget is just too awesome to lose.
Yeah either sense or lp it is i guess

Month or Week view in Calendar widget?

Is there any way to show month or week view in the Calendar widget?
Help appreciated.
Not that I could find - now using Pure Calendar (monthly)
I didn't really see any customization options for the built in widget itself. I switched to Simple Calendar because their widget is very customizable. You can choose how many days to show, which calendars, what color everything is, which order to show things, and even the font size. I'll attach a screenshot so you can check it out.

Android pro widgets is the best for me

Android Agenda Widget my go-to widget for years now, always getting better, tons of features and you can make it look almost any way you want.
As for facebook support... Never heard of any calendar that has that. And you would not want to "sync" with Google Calendar, just use the database. Anyway, if facebook is a requirement, don't think this one does it.
Pure Calendar is the best...

WOW! so I have got my New Nexus 7 32gb and it updated to 4.2.1 as soon as i powered it up and connected it to my wireless...
I am missing the calendar widget. the only calendar widget i have is for google calendar.
I really want the default calendar that shows me the whole month that i have on my phone, and from what i am reading it was originally part of the nexus 7, just wondering if it was removed or if for some reason i am missing something obvious and dont have it.
I could download any ordinary app from the store but why do that if i should have something already for free.

Google Calendar is basically just like the stock calendar.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/ Business Calendar Free is very good.
So good that I bought it.
On one side screen I set up a 5x5 Month Calendar widget (sized to cover whole window) and on the home screen I use another widget set as Agenda.
I really like that the widgets are re-sizable.
Many options.
Great app.:good:
so i went with android pro widgets for the full screen calendar and to get it synced with facebook i used UberSync which allows me to add facebook friends birthdays to the calendar. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync
Three words: Executive Assistant Plus ^_^ Epically awesome! (Ok, so that's 5, but I was only counting before the happy face lol)
Pure calendar widget and apw (android pro widgets)
Pure is really nice and super configurable. Plenty of themes too.

heavyweight champ!
Wizz widget. Free and looking great, plus has other goodies, like RSS news, facebook, twitter etc. Free version has limited customization options but it is enough for me (set font/back color/transparency)

Thanks for the heads-up. This app is good enough to pull me from Google's own calendar.
There's a reason this app is rated so highly.
I also had to buy it.
Simple Calendar Widget is pretty customizable and minimalistic for those who like that sort of look.: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anod.calendar&feature=nav_result

android pro widget + lucid theme and I never looked back
I think you will like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338410
My vote is for Jorte
Lots of widget sizes, fully customisable colours, can display your events etc. Use it on phone and tablet

It's a complete calendar app but the widgets are nicely done.
