I've been noticing that my weather app for my current location always seems to be a few degree's off ...it always reads lower than the posted weather from the National Weather service. Does anyone know where it pulls it's info from? And is there a way of having it pull info from a different location?
BTW
Evo 4g running Fresh Evo 4.0.0.4
What weather app? The stock Sense one?
If so, I don't think so. You can try downloading a different app that supports the provider you wish to use. Where do you want it to pull info from?
One of my choices is a local weather service in my area that "most probably" have the correct weather info....I live in south Florida and the weather down here can change from one minute to the other... I would like a service that was more dependable. I know I might be looking for something that doesn't exist (yet) ...Thanks for the response
WoW so you want a app that tracks your weather sec by sec..?
Okay, well I use Beautiful weather which i bought from the Market
By far the most respectable weather app i have ever used
sooo many customizable weather situations its pretty f*cking cool!
I am staying in Osaka Japan and it is soo exactly perfect i never question it
Of course you have to choose what Weather Service you want to use in Options, Weather Service
but I use google and its much much more accurate then my girls IPhone4
That's exactly what I'm looking for (Hoping it has the UI as Sense) ...What's the name of the APP?

I finally broke down and and bought beautiful widgets because I wanted a smaller weather/clock widget so I could fit more on my home screen. It works well and is HIGHLY customizable. The weather is also more accurate because you can choose what source to use, google or accuweather.

hi guyz .. i just saw this post today surfacing on the top of our forum...here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785645
since the clock is ripped is it possible for this sense flipping clock to be ported to our samsung galaxy s????
Omg pleeeeeeeeeeeaseeeeeee
I doubt it...... you need sense and it's a little limited and convoluted.
Why not just install something like Fancy Widget or Weather Widget?

i have been using fancy widget for a long while now.. i agree there is not much difference ..... but we are here to get the best and the most for our devices... if we start being satisfied in everything then this world would come to an end ..
satisfied-----> no development
no development -----> boring world
boring world-------> no point living like dead

i can agree to that expect the last part
it's actually quite comfortable pace and quiet, until some one stirs up the water again.
specially all those false alarms at bugs and problems some make it out to be a big deal when it's just a tiny issue.
Now back on topic, I do like Fancy Widget better, is nicer cooler, softer, and those touch spots are configurable as a soft menu to launch apps, which is perfect !
You need the htc framework to support their widgets.
Alternative ?
- Well considering the "scrolling/animated widget" is open source (by koxx if i recall), someone with experience in java/time on their hands could come up with such a widget.

Agreed on the framework, that's why I mentioned Sense being needed.
As to someone else creating a widget, whatever they create they would have to be very careful as other widget developers have had to either terminate their widget or alter so as not to infringe HTC's patent.
in order to install this last version of Htc Clock (from sense 1.6 of desire hd) you need to flash the up.zip on a SENSE rom, if u read the entire post he explains how... bye
ive seen alot of people with custom lockscreens like having a different picture on their lockscreen than the one on their homescreen. and some have widgets like typoclock.
how do you do all of this?

WidgeLocker from the market. Excellent highly customizable lockscreen app. Plus there is a whole thread on it with custom locks and such... Only thing is, it's not free.
Heres the link to that thread I mentioned earlier if you're considering the app:

+1. Widgetlocker is an amazing app
Sent from my HTC Vision
I got rid of widget locker on my N1...Too buggy and slow for me
Being able to put the Handcent widget on the lock screen is worth the price of the app alone. I'm not a fan of the popup.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
thats the only solution....?
Widget Locker.
You can get a *Pirated* version to do some testing...
At first I didn't like it much & didn't think it justified the cost, but it's great to have all your Go To Apps right on the Lock Screen along with the customization...
Once you purchase the App you get a lot more options & a much stabler build... Highly recommended.
I guess I haven't figured it out. Ijust purchased widget Locker, and it's pretty cool, but I can't get it to overwrite my actual lock screen setup.
Right now I slide the unlock slider, and that takes me to the phone's unlock slider, to then enter pswrd. Any way to go from widgetlocker straight to pw?
OP dude how the heck have you had so many phones...4 iPhones??? LOL
I tried it out on CM 6.1 and it was glitchy as hell .

hahahah, if you really love phones like i do, you find ways to get new ones every so often. i like to trade a lot on craigslist. you can really get some killer deals. traded my iPhone 3gs for my brand new g2. best. deal. ever.
so is there no way to set a different wallpaper for lock screen and home screen?
well so far i dont see any other app that allows u to do what widget locker does. Wish their was a trial version of this aswell but i took the leap and bought it and i was not disappointed at all. Its not that buggy at all on the g2 as long as u dont lock it and unlock really fast... than the screen flashes with the lock but thats the only problem i have so far. I havnt even modded my widget locker till i looked into this post! and WOW i love it even more now. i dont remeber how much i paid for the app but.. worth it def.!
Don't know if this has been discussed, but it would be pretty cool!
If you root and install CM7, the feature is coming soon. Should be coming in a nightly release in the not too distant future.
Btw, other ROMs may claim to have this feature first, but the code is "stolen" from CM devs. The version they have is buggy and unstable according to the CM code review site.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I would love to have this feature. I switch wallpapers all the time.
On another note, I can't wait for CM7! They seem to be makin good progress with it, hopefully we have it soon.
You can try Widgetlocker as well. Not sure if there is a free alternative out there.
I just tried widget locker. Its almost what I'm lookin for, but won't let me choose live wallpapers, I can only choose from gallery.(now I'm getting picky, I know)
um to change your background of the lockscreen is really easy... change your phones' wallpaper.....
unless you want a independent one from the wallypaper? I would assume thats what your poking at>

Yes exactly what I'm trying to do. Widget locker worked the best but won't let me run live wallpaper for lockscreen.
I have been looking for a clock that is like the stock sense one that has alarms and timer and stop watch all included haven't been able to find one for a AOSP rom would like to find a sense based clock that works with AOSP rom that has all the goodies with it. Only thing thats stopping me from wanting to use a AOSP rom all the time. I like the senseless roms but its a pain to find something that may work until it boot loops sucks. Anyone know of any i have checked out the clock forums on here but all they seem to be is fancy clock widgets. So can anyone point me into the right direction. Thanks I am pretty familiar with APK files..

I'm using the Weather & Toggle widget on my hero and using it asa my EVO comes in. It's almost exactly like the stock one and there's skin downloads to match it exactly. I paid for mine because it's worth the couple bux bud, seriously. I don't buy many apps, just help out the devs but this one was a no brainer for AOSP roms.

Thanks i was hoping to beable to use the sense pack htc clock on a few senseless roms FC on alot of it kinda blows i really just want stock clock with alarms and everything. Id be thrilled i hope someone comes out with a better gingerbread keyboard.
I'd use AOSP roms in a heartbeat if I could get this too. Can never find a keyboard as good as the HTC one either.

Ya i am likeing cm7 tho the keyboard sucks its a pain to use. The clocks out there are not as good sense based one. Hope someone can fix that. The roms to have dried up not to many people are making anything new. I like evo based roms not ports. If your really want a port go get the phone in my opinion. Im like konies rom elite 3 battery life isnt good on stock kernel the clock doesnt suit me trying to replace it.
Fancy widget has the clock your looking for plus a whole lot more..

Sense replacements
I am on ASOP now and have really missed a lot of Sense stuff since switching to Cyanogen 6 a few months ago.
I have used a number of stopwatch apps and don't really like any of them.
I am using TouchPal, beacuse I don't like the stock dialer, but am not crazy about TouchPal.
I am using SwiftKey as a keyboard, which I do really like a lot.
I use Beautiful Widget's: Super Clock. Its the best thing next to sense. Plus you can change up the skins faster than you do your socks!
Also I use Swift Keyboard. It looks similar to the touch input plus its crazy convenient!
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
Ehh, I just want the time and an alarm lol. W&T widget defaults to the stock clock, which has an alarm so that's cool. The KB is garbage though you're right. Many months ago when I was on Sense roms with my Hero I was using the AOSP-voice keyboard but now I'm on Better Keyboard 8. My EVO should be in tomorrow and I'm guessing that just the meire size of the phone should make ANY keyboard easier to use lol. The Hero landscape is just a little too small for my big fingers.

Check out HD Widgets. It's on app store for a small amount but is well worth it and it looks great. It has lots of clock widget sizes and styles, with or without weather and is highly customisable.

I know most of you don't care about HTC "bloatware" and you probably think Sense would be an abomination on any Nexus device, but I am a huge Blinkfeed fan and I was able to install it by following the instructions listed here:
http://thebookofsarah.blogspot.com/2014/04/blinkfeed-apk-download-and-instalation.html
Couple of bugs still, weather icon isn't working for me and Facebook sync seems a bit off.
I really just wanted it for the news so it works perfectly for me.
Edit: Weather icon working now!
