Just did a widget update and noticed two new widgets are available for download. One allows you quick access to change your profile and the other allows you quick access to
change your ringtone.
How do you do a widget update?
Hit the + then Widget then "Get more HTC widgets".

No problems. To the OP, thanks for the heads up. I have two new widgets on my page and was able to remove some third party one. Useful!
Is there a way I can easily change my phone behaviour from ring to ring+vibrate?
I would like to have a switch but the HTC widget only gives you ring only/vibrate only/silent.
But it's a nice addition in any case...

You can hold volume down until it vibrates.

Yes, but essentially it does the same action as the HTC widget - vibrate only. It doesn't give you the option ring+vibrate.
Haven't read your previous post exactly and didn't see the + sign between ring and vibrate. Your right
this was already available for Legend previously, but now also with Desire. Nothing really new anyway.
i've got 7
coin flip
dice

nice to see some updates.
it says downloaded for 'profile ' now but how the hell do you get it to a screen?
if i choose to uninstall it says the homescreen will be reset, but there's no icon for this thing to remove anyway
Update in Germany
I'm in Germany and I've got no Updates on Widgets. Is the Update limited to some countries?

Although it says in Settings > Personalize "Choose... lock screen wallpaper", there is no way to actually change the image. On earlier versions of HTC Sense for Android you could have a different picture on the lock screen and as a wallpaper, but not now. Another backward step or am I missing something?
I saw it also, the information is still in the user manual by the way, but not possible.
Is there a way to have the weather widget on lockscreen?
Thanks for your help
Nothing on my menus for lock screen...would be nice but tbh I'm not that fussed
I want to be able to change it too. I rather liked that feature on my Hero

I downloaded LockBotPro... its a good app an there's a decent amount of customization you can do to the lock screen... add your own wallpaper, lock slider & sound effect but shame its not compatibile with the AndWobble app, that would of made it a thousand times better
Is it possible to have live/animated lock screen themes with LockBotPro?

Not sure, but i would hardly imagine anyone having a go at it, people are trying to run away from live wallpapers to save up some battery life
This feature worked for me, and was present in the settings menu. ALthough I noticed at some point that my lockscreen image was not what I set it to, and the menu option was not there anymore......
I went back expecting the menu option to be there but it wasn't. Wonder whats going on. The feature was there and it worked for me...
Hey guys,
I've seen a lot demo videos on sense UI and the vanilla android UI.
they've got nice features, like the twitter widget and the mac os like pinch-zoom on the homescreen @ sense UI.
Or the vanilla lockscreens with the ability to mute the phone without unlocking.
so how about a TouchWiz featurelist, here in this topic, where we summon all the features we discover.
Already known features:
unused homescreens can be deleted
apps can be shown in list-view and "iphone"-view
- Wifi,silent,vibration and bluetooth toggles in the notification area
- Uninstall applications just by tapping them on "edit mode"
- Docked icons on the homescreen
- A swipe to the right on a name in the phonebook will call the contact
- A swipe to the left on a name in the phonebook will start the new message interface
-Hold BACK and pres HOME key to make a screenshot

Hey, I've just watched the Touch Wiz 3.0 demo
youtube.com/watch?v=qRM5bf35yqs&feature=related
and at 17 secs into the vid it states that you can toggle between widget and application menu by swiping the screen up and down.? can anybody confirm this?
And it also states that Touch Wiz has a smart task manager, can that also be confirmed? (1.06min into the vid)
Thx alot!

yeah, i just checked that on the samsung wave ... since it has touchwiz 3.0 too it has the same nice feature =)
Owners:
The calendar included with TouchWiz syncs with Google calendar or with Yahoo?
The video from Las Vegas presentation shows some Yahoo services, but I suppose it's also available for Google.
The screenshot feature stated in the beginning doesn't seem to work.

Obviously not tried this with beautiful widgets. Their widgets do not show up in app draw. Only way to get them to work is 'long-pressing' home screen, which we know doesn't give a widget option in ICS.
As far as I'm aware, you would need a custom launcher which has long-press home screen for widgets option. Not worth it imo. I uninstalled my BeautifulWidgets App within 10 minutes of paying 10p for it yesterday, not wasting that kind of money!
I had this problem, beautiful widgets not showing up in app drawer.

aspudgun,
WOW! can you say [email protected] to youself? I have the program... I have a GN and I use the widget on the stock launcher... how about u shut your mouth before you run it like a moron... sorry for being rude but i'm not going to take crap from someone who thinks they know it all...
but here are the steps to prove as I just did it on my GN again to make these steps.
1. hit app drawer.
2. select widgets at top of the screen
3. slide over to right until you see the Beautiful Widgets...
4. press and hold the widget of your choice for it
5. place on the screen of your choice you want it to be on
6. remove finger from screen to drop widget on screen
7. screen pops up to setup the widget how you like it (you can get back to the settings by selecting the weather icon in the widget and then hitting the menu soft button which is in the upper right corner)
8. then hit the Save & Apply button and done
Amazing how things work isnt it aspudgun???
again sorry to Jlovell and others for having to read this to get working steps...

What are you talking about? You use beautiful widgets just like any other widget. Did you happen to look at all the widgets that started with the word beautiful in the app drawer? I'm using it now and its super easy

You sometimes have to reboot for widgets to appear in the app drawer... You guys really take this stuff personally LMFAO
Thanks for calling tech support, have you tried turning it off and on again?
Lol, about half the widgets I've downloaded required a reboot to show up in the app drawer...when something doesn't work right, reboot.
A question, when I go in my widget setting to try and change it as I want to change something, I go into settings -> general and it force closes on me, I'm trying to get the black squares to disappear for the Ice Cream Sandwich Super Clock skin by a person named Tama-Chan.
If you can't do it using the app, is there any way to edit a current skin? I just want to remove the black squares and change the font to Roboto to match the ICS font? Any guidance would be much appreciated!

There was an update this morning that mentioned ics compatibility so maybe you can now edit preferences for a widget properly or you could try this:
I did it by removing and re-adding the widget. When you re-add it you get a dialogue asking you what settings you want to use which works.
Hey guys,
As the title says I am looking for a way to disable that stupid function when you install an app there will be automatically a shortcut added to the desktop.
Didn't find any solution for that, even using different launcher and no sense launcher.
It really ****s up my beautiful desktop screens.
Thanks in advance.

It's in the market settings ('Auto-add widgets')
you can also just long press and drag the widget up to where it says "remove" at the top of the screen. i prefer downloading the widget and then deciding if i want it visible or not.

thanks for the clarification. as i said, i prefer deciding whether it should be visible or not, rather than having them all not visible (and maybe having to hunt for it).
I normally use a blank page for this: First navigate to that page, then install the applications.
Now this page has all applications I have to try out.
It's some sort of todo page.
Got a new G3, the F460 with Snapdragon 805, guess straight from Korea (bought on Swappa). Minor annoyance, the lock screen shows double clock - "Local" and "Home" time, where "home" is, I guess, Seoul Korea. How do I get rid of this "Home" time there or change its time zone to elsewhere? There is nothing on it in lock screen options, time zone settings in system settings also don't affect this, nothing in "Clock" application settings... Any ideas?
I was wondering this too.

Right, as the user just above me wrote, it does not work. You can press it as long as you want - eventually the lock screen will timeout and go dark, but you can't remove or edit this widget in any way. Any other ideas?

Ok, try this way:
- screen is locked but it's on
- touch and hold the widget and try to pull it down like notification bar
- widget should become bigger and editable
- touch and hold the widget (now you should be able to remove it)

Thank you for trying to help, Czechu! Dzięki! Unfortunately it still does not work. I can swipe the lock screen from the left edge, and _only_then_ I get a page and widget you show on your video. However, the screen that comes up first upon turning on is different, has two digital clocks that cannot be modified in any way, cannot be swiped down - nothing...

This guy demonstrate that how to disable roaming clock through settings which is hidden. In order to access those settings, you need to download a free app named "Quick Shortcut Maker" from playstore. I just follow his steps and i just feel happy. 100% working.
