I've moved to BW since its compatible with ADW launcher and has similar animations, but the HTC cloudy weather animation continually flashes across my screen upon unlocking and startup.
I've tried going back to the stock Sense launcher and unchecking fullscreen animations (multiple tomes) but to no effect. Anybody have a fix for this??

It may not be the HTC animation, but rather a third party app. Are you using Widgetlocker as your lockscreen? If so, it too has a weather animation that, unless something recently changed, is enabled by default.
Uncheck "unlock animations" in the advanced section of the BW settings, if you haven't already.
remove the htc clock from your homescreen and readd it....there will be a an option to enable/disable full screen animation

He's using ADW, so the HTC clock is not being used.

he said he went back to stock sense...maybe doing what i said will disable it then he can switch back... just a thought
@najaboy: I'm running with the skyraider rotary unlock lockscreen so I don't think that's it
@G00S3Y: I actually don't mind the BW animations, its the fact that the stock HTC cloudy animation always runs just before the BW one. It makes it weird when the BW animation is "clear" but the HTC one is clouds, but I'll give it a shot

That's exactly what I tried. I unistalled ADW and returned to the stock Sense launcher. I removed the widget, readded it, and unchecked the animation box. Reinstalled ADW and it was still there, "cloudy" animation only.
I even tried just removing the widget completely and STILL got clouds... :/

Backup your homescreen settings for Sense, pretty sure Titanium Backup does this...but I use mybackup pro. once you have it backed up, goto setting>applications>manage applications>all> then click HTC Sense and clear out the cache etc. then switch back.
just throwing ideas out there to hopefully get you all fixed up. let me know your results

Just tried your fix and was optimistic. Went to every HTC weather app in the app manager and cleared cache when able, then toggled force stop. Go back to the homescreen and... clouds.
I did find two interesting things though. While exploring the HTC weather apps I came across one that said widget settings that I couldn't change at all. Also, in an attempt just to do something different, I enabled the animations in the widget. Instead of replacing the cloudy animation, it STILL ran first, then the current weather animation showed.
I'm getting my ass kicked by this one... I'll see if I can post a screenshot of the unchangeable widget screen

that sucks. i like the adventure, i would back up my data etc and reinstlal the rom and go from there. but this is an odd bug of sorts.
It really is... I think ill just wait until gingerbread comes out and hopefully it might fix itself. I really just don't feel like doing a wipe and reflashing for an issue as small as this one :/

Widgetlocker
This has been annoying me for weeks, and couldn't find an answer anywhere. I had disabled the animations in the Sense clock, but it was still running animations over my home screen. But someone above had the answer that finally solved it for me. It was Widgetlocker, which has it's own button for turning on and off the Sense weather animations. Problem solved!
I would like to know about this as well!
I don't like the delay between unlocking my phone and being able to use it (the weather animation runs and I either have to wait for it or click the screen).
Appreciate anyone's input...
Bump shamelessly until I get a fix for this... somebody gotta know something!

Was running DC3.5. Flashed CM6.0 and still having the same behavior...
When unlocking the screen, i see a slight trace of an animated/live weather. Sort of like a sun/cloud. I can only see it vaguely though and I cant figure out what app its coming from.
Any ideas?
I'm running Beautiful Widget but the image I am seeing is like a live weather image of the sun and cloud parting ways.
Im stumped
I'm personally not using that widget but the widget I am using (Weather & Clock) has an addon with settings that animate upon unlock.
See attachment.
If you can't find it in running apps or something perhaps a complete wipe and reflash?

I also have that widget but dont really use it as I prefer Beautiful Widgets but for some reason, not being enabled (the widget) those settings were still active. Unchecked that setting and all is well!
Thanks again!
Does anyone know how to turn off the animations for SkyRaider 3.5?
Every time I unlock my phone, the clouds come swooping by etc. etc.. And then the clock does a little weird animation too that's kind of annoying.
I went to Menu>Settings>Display and I turned off all Animation. Still no luck.
Any ideas? - I've searched the forums and all these threads have just died, is it true no one knows how to fix this?
Remove and add the clock widget. When you add it, there should be an option for weather animations. Uncheck that box and you're good to go. The clock, however, has the flip animation built-in so that one won't turn off

Hmm.. I think that fixed it, when I added the fancy widget it was a different layout then what I had there before.. so I think this skin doesn't have any animations.
Do you know how to download a bunch of fancy widget skins? I've searched but havent really come across any easy methods.
So the new sense 3.0 live weather wallpaper is niiiice.. really like it however the animated part seems to only happen in widget locker(if using) and not on the actual page. But this isnt much concern, my issue is that the sound effect happens in the lock screen when i use an alternative wallpaper. So my question is is there anyway to edit that live wallpaper to remove all sounds?

When selecting the live wallpaper, choose preview and there you will have a settings option. From there you can disable sounds.
My problem with the live wallpaper is different... After running for quite some time it just freezes until I lock and unlock my screen again...
any ideas?
i installed the sense 3.0 weather but my weather did not change ! (i could have the lock weather widget).
when i apply the default live wallpaper which is that girl with sunglasses the screen goes black ! the pattern lock screen is black also.
i just mounted revolution 2.3.3 latest rom.

Scrap that, apparently there are no sounds for night so i couldnt tell if it worked or not, but its the sound is still on. anyone help??
I'm having the same problem with the sound. I'd unchecked the box for sound effects, both in the clock/weather widget as well as the live wallpaper but there's still weather sounds.
I've linked it to the weather live wallpaper however. When I choose a different wallpaper, the sounds do not come up anymore.
Is there another way to disable the sound in this live wallpaper?
Hi, I have the same problem. I've unchecked the sound effect in weather app and also before applying a new live wallpaper (weather) ... but the sound in still on, when I unlock the screen... anyone knows what's going on?
I have HTC Desire with RCMix S v 2.0.1 ROM ... tnx for any replay...
Still no solution? This is so anoying

I had this while trying "RCMix3D KINGDOM v2.0 Evolutionary Sense!". But considering that and the fact that it wasn't very "live" after a cycle of the animation i picked another wallpaper (a normal one). However! After having installed Virtuous Unity 1.29 i tried the live weather wallpaper out. It's still not very "live" after a cycle of the animation, but at least unchecking the sound checkbox makes it be quiet.

It is only meant to do one 'cycle' that is normal. My HTC Flyer is the same. it must be a battery saving thing.

install a sense rom then install a launcher from the market
Sent From My Optimized HTC Incredibly Since
Agile lock from the market is a nice sense 3.0 lockscreen clone. Its still inferior as the software is a little edgy and there aren't any sms previews like the sense 3.0 one has. I currently use this with CM7 along with sms popup from the market and it works great.
Otherwise download a stable sense rom with the sense 3.0 lockscreen (Nils Gingersense, Synergy) and use a different launcher.
There's also SupraROM which is an AOSP Sense 3.0 mix, but I'm not sure if it has the sense lockscreen.

I know when I ran MIUI about a month ago there was a Sense ring lockscreen you could install in Theme Manager. The downside was I couldn't figure out how to pick what apps other than the ones it gave you. Maybe that's changed, not sure there.

Ah right, I forgot about this option.
I do believe that they can be changed. You have to edit a text file though so its not as easy as HTC makes it. There's a MIUI lockscreen thread with a few of those sense ring lockscreen alternatives. However they all have one thing in common: when releasing the ring, the screen immediately unlocks. No cool "fly through the ring" effect.

Div033 is correct on the MIUI sense 3.0 lockscreens, they look pretty much identical but lack the fancy animation.
I'm not sure what the OP means by this:

By gingerbread, do you mean the stock AOSP look? Because if so, you could use agile lock on CM7, like has already been mentioned, or maybe try the synergy rom with the warm theme. It has the sense 3.0 lockscreen but is themed with quite a few AOSP gingerbread elements.
The title says it all, for whatever reason my HTC clock widget has disappeared from my widget list when i restored my latest backup of skyraider 4.3 using CWM. I still have the analog clock widget, but the one with the flip clock e.t.c. is gone. I tried restoring it using my titanium backup backup of it, but to no avail. I also used root explorer to attempt to install it using the .apk installer file but i kept getting a "not installed" error. I was wondering if anyone would email me their .apk of the htc clock widget so i could re-install it. I have seen similar posts on this but it was for the mytouch 4g, and I wanted to eliminate any errors and use the one for the incredible. Thanks in advance for the help!

Yes I am, I even have the clock widget I am looking for set up on my home screen, I just wanted to change it and that is when i noticed that I don't have the widget in my "add to home screen" anymore.
Edit: To be more specific, i am using the "HTC Skyraider sense" launcher, but I assume that it should have the same widgets as the normal sense launcher as I have all the other ones, I also had to have added the widget to my homescreen at some point, so it must have been in my "add to home" at one point.
