The LG Optimus 2x I will admit is a beautiful phone hardware-wise and it's powerful too. But honestly, they ripped off both HTC and Samsung's designs.
1) The weather widget is obviously a copy of the HTC Sense Clock
2) The phone looks like an Evo all around
3) They copied Samsung's Touchwiz interface for the homescreen dock
But, like I said, it has power to match, so this was more of rant than a complaint.

I tried it..it doesn't list my city, and only seems to list bigger cities. I live in a city with a population of close to 40,000 in Indiana.

trouble parsing
does anyone know how I can get this to install?
I have 2.2.1 and I downloaded it, put it on my SD Card
but it says there is trouble parsing the file
any help or advice?

As much as I love the look of it (because I love Go Weather, which is a clear take-off of this), the auto-update doesn't work. So far the only weather widget who's auto update works if Fancy Widget.

I can install this but the weather and clock widget force closes when I try to put it on a homer screen.

Don't bother installing this. It keeps running in the background as "Today In News" even if the widget isn't on your homescreen.

[Q] Weather and Clock widgets

Which is the coolest and most beautiful weather and clock widget there is for a home screen? Please post your weather and clock widgets.
Beatufil widgets and Weather Widget Donate are 2 that everyone uses. Both are in the market, both are skinable and highly customizable.
Good luck
Weather Widget
I would have to say that Beautiful Widget is by far the best. Has a huge variety of clock and weather skins that can be downloaded from the app itself and also has a weather animation when you go to the forcast that is somewhat like Sense. Well worth the $2.
Fancy widget is awesome

wish we had sense. I love the Sense clock and weather

A quick search on the market doesn't really come with anything called "fancy widget," could you be a bit more specific?
Not free. I purchased this one when I first got an android handset because I really wanted the sense clock.

I like the beautiful widget app. Has clock, weather and other widgets. Its always best to support the developers and buy from the markets, especially if you go to 4shared.com and download them for free.

[Q] HTC Evo/Incredible Sense Clock?

I'm trying to find the animated home flip clock/weather widget that is on the Evo and Incredible. My mother just purchased an Incredible and I love how the clock and weather is fully animated. I want that on my Epic, if possible.
I've tried Beautiful Widgets and Fancy Widget; they're both awesome but don't seem to have the same neat animations that the actual HTC clock has. Has it been ported to the Epic, or am I just going to have to stick with one of the other options?
Thanks to anyone who can give me some sort of answer.. I've searched the forums but just haven't really gotten an answer.
Check out weather & toggle widget w/ weather forcast add on. Pretty close looking

Beautiful widget had screen on animations like the evo

So does weather & toggle. W/ htc flip clock
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I have Beautiful Widgets and it does have weather animations, I just looked in the wrong place. xD I can't find the actual flip clock, but I don't think that matters in the end. Beautiful Widgets seems to work really well.
I haven't checked the other, I might do that today. Thanks for the replies.
FWIW, the animated flip clock is not standard on the EVO, it has to be flashed.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
actually now the apk file for the clock from the desire hd no longer requires i flash it is a push adb apk. also i think you will not find a type of port of this (animated) clock. its all tied into sense, and BW and weather toggle widgets dont have the flip clock animation you looking for but cosmetic looks yes...

Launcher Pro Weather Widget

hey guys I just downloaded launcher pro and pro plus, I can't find my stock weather widget, is there a fix or something to get it back inside launcher pro? plus I can't find a short cut for my 4g, airplane mode, GPS etc. buttons, can someone help me I'm a noob to this stuff
Sent from my HTC Evo™ 4G using XDA Premium App
HTC widgets will not be available while LauncherPro or Pro + is your launcher. Switch back to the stock launcher to access HTC widgets.
thanks Doug, it would be a perfect launcher if the HTC Widgets were available, oh yea loving the Miami hurricanes avatar, that's who I root for
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
you can find the power control widget when you long press for a widget, it has most of the options, the 4g toggle widget you find it on the market, and a similar weather widget you could try fancy widget pro, which i think its free only today on amazon store

HTC sense clock that works with the Samsung Galaxy S3

I just came from a HTC device and now have the SGS3, now i really miss the htc clock in both sizes, 4x2,4x1. I have looked on the internet for these clocks but i cannot find any.. If someone has the apk's of these clocks for the sgs3 and could upload these on this post than i would really appreciatie it!!
Thanks
Same, I want the clock on nexus 7 and my dhd has a ROM with no sense. Makes no sense to me lol
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
For sense clock, you can't port it to SGS3 because it needs sense framework to work.
But you can try Beautiful Widgets from the store.
Nearly same look. Just unlock animations are different.
Hi,
Maybe you can take a look at this:

And maybe keep it in a bookmark:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1799417&highlight=sense+clock, but actually no support for hdpi devices (certainly in the future, "more version are on the way") with animated flip clock
And from the Gnex section, with a 4*1 widget: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576980&highlight=sense+clock
I have found the "3D Flip Clock & World Weather" app gives me the clock most like the one I used on my HTC desire.
moji weather, one of my dev friends in china made a perfectly looking skin of the one x clock for moji weather, just search for cc in the app. it is actually a perfect copy of the sense clock

For 4x1 you can try Fancy widgets

You can also install beautiful weather and use the htc one x clock theme or other htc theme, there are several of them you can download
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
fancy widget is the closest version to htc one, but it has no flip numbers. also sense won't be available
A few days late in replying but I just got my gs3 a few days ago and managed to install a clock apk that was developed by the team elegancia guys in the sensation forums. It is a themed version of the sense clock and works ok, only bottom part is a bit cut out.
Sent from my GT-I9300T
Also have another app that I used on my old desire hd that works ok as well. Again, it's a bit cut out and not meant for gs3 but still works.

I use beautiful super clock that comes with beautiful widgets and then I choose clock skin "sense v4.1"
HD Widgets for me is just great. Fancy widget also have great themes.

Default Weather Widget - Shortcut Change?

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a way to change the shortcut for the default S3 weather widget? Instead of it directing you to Accuweather, I would prefer that it opens up Weatherbug.
Why don't you just place the weather bug widget on your screen instead of the stock one?

Thanks ... I would use the weather bug widget, but it doesn't have the clock built in. I also considered using Fancy Widgets which is similar to the HTC interface ... I just liked the way the stock one looked and was hoping there was a way.

Yeah would be nice also if you touched the clock it would take you to your alarm or other alarm app and when you touch the weather it would open whatever weather app you wanted. One thing i miss about HTC is there widgets nothing else compared IMO
Hd Widgets isn't like the stock clock widget but it's highly customizable and 2 set ups look like the sense clocks. From the original evo is one and the other is from the new Evo 4G lte
Also weather services include accuweather, weather bug, and weather underground. I've made posts about changing the provider on the stock clocks and usually don't get a reply saying someone knows how so I just use a 3rd party one
thanks look good keep up great work
Thanks for the follow up ... I am going to check out HD Widgets ... it looks similar to the version included on the EVO
I use it and love it. You will not be disappointed.
I am using it now and agree ... very very cool!!
