Using Beautiful Weather widget, how to get animation on after unlock screen ? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not a fan of the grandpa sized stock HTC clock/weather widget, I use the Beautiful Smaller Home Weather widget, with downloaded skin.
Anyways, after I unlock the phone and get to the home screen, the cool weather animation is no longer there. Is there a way to still have that, when using a different weather/clock widget ?
I did go into advanced options of the widget for "Unlock Animations" weather animation after unlocking the device, I checked that box. But still nothing. WTF

Search "beautiful widgets animation" in the market

I did that search, and shows up "Installed"

have you tried a different skin? sometimes my animations disappear on me

There is a setting inside of beautiful widgets that has to be checked in order for it to work. I didn't know you had to have the plug in and when I was playing with the settings I turned animations on and it automatically took me to the market to download and install the plugin.

Beautiful Widgets
Is there a free version out there ?

I had the same problem with the weather animation...I got it to work after changing the weather service from "Google" to "Accuweather".

[REQ TO DEV's] 3d app drawer + Sense clock/weather widget and effects

Hi
Dunno if it is possible, but i really like the LauncherPro and app drawer, and 3d app drawer when moving smootly, but I also like the effects from Sense UI, when it rains and the wiper "cleans" the screen for example.
Is it possible to get both at the same time?
Fancy widget only enables the Sense clock widget, but gets no effects

beautiful widgets have sence style clock and animated weather
Beautiful Widgets has this effects, too.
But i want this ^^ 3D App Drawer and the rest of the look of the original Froyo_Launcher (LauncherPRO is not simmilar and its Sense Widgets not, too)
Can not someone make a SensePRO ? Or only edit the interface?

Year, but beautiful widgets doesn't "make it rain" on the screen
only when you enter the widget... ¨¨
Like when its cloudy, clouds fade in over the screen when you unlock it with Sense
It's all in the foreground
It does now with the 3.x versions if you enable it in the options.

Actually the newest patch I'm using does exactly what sense does. When you unlock it does the funky weather effect across the screen

Currently, I use LauncherPro for 3 reasons:
1) Swapping among the screens is MUCH more faster/smoother than Sense, and I really have no idea why!
2) 3D drawer
3) It looks very nice
However, I really miss a lot the HTC widgets, like Footprints, Mail widget (it would be nice to get one like this for K-9 Mail), pictures widget...and so on.
It would be perfect to gather Launcher's smoothness (for the screens) / 3D drawer with Sense widgets..but I know it's not possible.
I'll check latest beautiful widgets to see what it offers..
Nice. Haven't checked the latest version, but I'm definitely going to. Thanks for heads up. Btw is it the paid version?

No alarm in DC3.5?

I have searched but can't find answer.
Im running DC3.5 which is great but I can't find how to set an alarm. Where is the widget that included alarm and world time? I keep the phone on my nightstand in landscape mode but can no longer do that since the clock app is missing. And yes, ive tried the digital clock app/widget from the market and I do not like it.
Thanks.

Should be the HTC Clock widget aka the flip clock with weather. If its missing you might need to reflash DC. I've flashed DC several times and it was always there.

Im running beautiful widgets and have always been able to assign the htc clock/alarm widget to open when tapping on the clock. I also no longer have the app "clock" in my app list.

I stumbled upon it yesterday. It's in the menu as "Desktop Clock".
You most likely have them banned in DConfig. That allows you to see the vanilla lockscreen instead of the HTC default lockscreen.

Weird Weather Issue when unlocking screen

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 owe you a beer!
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!

Disable weather animation problem

Greetings, please help me with my HTC Desire(Android 2.2, 2.10.405.2).
I can not disable weather full screen animation. I've already tried to remove and add HTC Clock widget(with weather), disabling "Full screen animation" or not - nothing! It still shows me clouds every time I unlock homescreen. It even somehow manages to show animation in "LauncherPro". WTF? Please help.
Thanks.

The problem is that there no any more HTC widget on the screen, but the animation still remains, even after I add widget with checkbox "Full screen animation" set to false and then delete this widget. I don't need this widget, I'am using LauncherPro which is quite useful. But this annoying animation still displays everytime after unlock.

its quite an impressive feat getting the htc animated weather to work with launcher pro accidently or not other people would kill to have that working
"Weather Widget Forecast Addon" saved me, problem solved! I hoped to find application to remove the animation and this application worked for me. I've unchecked all animations and clouds gone. Great!
had the same problem and fixed with the app listed above.
great.

I am using WidgetLocker and I was able to disable the HTC Weather Animations by going to: Open WidgetLocker App>Menu>Settings>Look&Feel>HTC Weather Animations>Select "Disabled"

Lockscreen Widgets, only google's ?

Hey,
I noticed that even though I have installed plenty of widgets, the only ones that show up on the lockscreen are the ones who come up by default from Google's applications... is this supossed to be like this, or am I missing something?

Bump
Pretty sure app developers need to make widgets available as lock screen widgets. Not all of my home screen widgets are available when adding a lock screen widget. For example, One Weather has 5 home screen widgets, and only 3 of those are available as lock screen widgets.
