Great widget.
Launch it from the launcher (select "News and Weather" or any other language equivalent) or place it on your desktop (Widgets -> "News and Weather")
Thanks! Any different to the default nexus one genie widget?
Have you noticed any other cool apps/widgets from the Galaxy tab? Thats what you mean by "tab" right?

Did a search on Nexus one genie widget, and it appears to be the same.

Mostly the same apps as on the Galaxy S. The only new apps I could find were a digital photoframe and the Zinio reader. With a little mod I managed to get the first one running on my device. But it's clearly for a 1024*600 resolution, so it's practically unusable. I'm working on the Zinio reader, but then again, we should see a Android version soon from Zinio: http://gb.zinio.com/splash.jsp?code=android
nice widget this genie, thx.
I was looking for this app flap
thanks

yeh i did notice that but didnt see any in there that look identicaly the same, would there be a apk for the proper htc sence widget that would work on our sgs2?
I personally use the SuperClock with SuperSense theme. Looks very good and "sensy" to me.

Superclock is a version of the beautiful widgets clock. supersense is a theme you can install from within beautiful widgets.
the weather widget of SGs2 is crap it takes ages to update and the shortest one for update is 3hrs damn

Using LauncherPro instead of TouchWiz. A lot more customisation.
carnt seem to find the sence in there, i just have a standard 1 installed in there and a tab for downloaded skins which just trys to loads skins but not doing anything i guess its supposed to me in there?
Yes the sense skin will be under the download tab.
Do a google search for "fancywidget.apk" This is the clock you are looking for. Its been pulled from most places im guessing for HTC copyright infringements but you can still find it if you look hard enough.
The app is called LP classic sense (you also get sense theme for your LP+ widgets) it's EXACTLY the same as fancywidget (wich was taken of the market way long ago)
I would have posted a screenshot but im not aloud yet
Yes but you need to install LauncherPro in order to get it and therefor get charged. You can still get fancywidget and use it with any launcher without having to pay for LauncherPro and the Sense add-on!!
I got lp sence and clock widget from market which the clock is good but i thought it come with sence wallpaper but no sign of it

Not true. Fancy Widget is still on the Market with the HTC weather clock style. The clock and weather skins are both called 'H7C'.
"Not true. Fancy Widget is still on the Market with the HTC weather clock style. The clock and weather skins are both called 'H7C'"
Thats now gone from the market also. I get the impression that LauncherPro now have exclusive rights to this clock and they are not letting anyone else have it!!

Hi all,
How many of you here are using Apex Launcher/Pro on your HOX?
How do you find it? I like Sense but I'm thinking of fiddling with a different launcher.
Does Apex LAuncher allow Landscape Home Screens?
If I don't like it I can just uninstall it right? Also I'm guessing I don't need to be r00ted to use the launcher...
Thanks all,
T-L-H

It does have landscape support - you have to go: Apex Settings - Behaviour Settings - Screen Orientation - Auto-rotate.

How exactly does this work then? Does it take over the sense totally? IE... When I turn my phone on I am booted in to this and when I lock it etc.. etc.. or do I have to open it each time I want to use it?
Sorry to sound a little dumb on this but I am a complete newby to android.

You can choose a default launcher to choose from. I've just chosen Apex Launcher... I still have the standard lockring on my lockscreen...
You can reset the default launcher in Apex Launcher settings. I'm still kinda new to this myself so I'm not too sure on all the in's-and-out's.

Okay so when you turn the phone on its the standard lockscreen, you move that and it opens directly into Apex Launcher as if Sense never existed? Sounds like something fun to mess around with.
I'm guessing it can't do any damage to the phone or the standard OS etc... then?

That's correct, it's all the same... just a different launcher.
The stock launcher is all intact, Apex doesn't overwrite anything, it's just an App really.

All makes perfect sense...
and +1 to Apex Launcher. I tried them all this past week and I just liked Apex better. I am sure they all do similar things, with a couple of things different. I purchased the Pro version of Apex.
Not sure if I can make the lock screen like my Apex home screen. I am still learning (time dependant), do very much like it though. Even my iPhone work mates seem impressed
I have been using Apex since Friday. I liked it so much I ended up paying for it.
Im not sure how many more features were enabled but I thought it would be the least I could do.
Main reason for switching. Laggy Home screen swithching in sense.
I have widgets on every screen now and its flawless!
Apex Launcher Pro consumes a lot of battery on my HOX 1.28
I back to Sense 4 and prefer Nova Launcher

When playing with various launchers, your battery may drain very fast because of the widgets you have running on the screens of the inactive launcher.
If you try Apex, it's a good idea to remove all widgets from your Sense screens first.

I switch off, all the widgets from Sense4 before try Apex
And reboot the terminal.
apex user here also. loving it. it's just smooth and full of features.
That's good to know, I'll remove my widgets from my Sense 4.0 Launcher and then boot back into Apex Launcher.
I'm also running GO Locker, GO Launcher EX with the ICS GO Locker Lock ring...
Sometimes when I power the screen back on I get the Sense 4.0 lock ring, so I unlock to homescreen then the ICS GO Locker ring will appear, so I have to unlock that one too! So I'm unlocking with two rings wtf?
I use Apex too and also bought the Pro version in supprot of the devs coz I liked it so much. I'm not even sure what the advantages are for Pro version. Hehehehe...
Hi guys,
I've brought a couple of days ago this fantastic HTC device! However, after 2 complete recharges, I've noticed that Blinkfeed launcher drains battery more then usuals launchers.
Considering that I don't use Blinkfeed homepage, i've decided to switch to a more customizable and light Nova Launcher... but to my disappointment I've noticed the lack of a great number of HTC widgets, like the weather widget, music app widget and all the quick settings shortcuts. Is it normal?? Is there a way to use them with Nova Launcher too??
Please help
No, you can only use the HTC widgets with the stock launcher.
You can browse the play store for copycat widgets, but that's about it.

You can get rid of blinkfeed page you know...
Pinch at the home screen to get to the panels option then drag the blinkfeed panel up and delete it.
Best of both worlds...

Oh thx for the answers guys.
However Nova launcher is also lighter, and much more customizable, so I will try to check in the play store to see what can I do.

Hello,
I have downloaded and flashed the newest Malaysk ROM. I want to know if I can change the stock weather app, which you can see in the stock widget, because it is not working properly. Do you have a modified weather app or another one which I can put in the stock widget. I don't want to use an app with an alternative widget.
Sorry for my bad english.

No it is no possible. This 'weather widget' is not widget at all but built-in to JY launcher.
Also the weather uses Yahoo servers and reportedly there is some issue with servers, so we hope it will be resolved in due time.

Description is bit unclear for me, but it looks like you can get something with it....
You may try and post results here.
Ooh, I literally just installed my new head unit and was wondering about this. As long as the servers get sorted soon so that the weather widget actually works then that will be great!

Looks like it is new launcher, with weather/radio/etc. auto-changing widget that can be moved around as normal widget, removed completely if you wish and replaced / complemented with any other weather or other widget...

If I understood good this Russian forum, it is implemented as standard widget in this launcher. So if you install it, possibly try to install it as normal application not to replace system launcher, then it may have that widget available to any other launcher you choose.

It works, but has 1024 resolution. As said above you can select your own widgets to be placed
where you like them to be. I hope there will be a 800 version soon.
Does it have a way of hidding status bar?
And, obviously I have to go back home after picking audio source correct? How does it handle previous audio source, does it turn it off before the new one is enabled? Looks interesting, and the media buttons only affect the selected source?
And what about Pandora, Spotify and other 3rd party players, can they be added to this? Both have widgets...

Unfortunately you cant choose the widget in another launcher.
Is it possible to make a new apk which looks like the one attached and has the widget from the russian forum?
Also it would be good if you have on one side the weather widget and on the other side the widget which changes between weather, radio, etc.
Also, I tested it and it wouldnt change radio stations. I could only press the station number and radio would open, but that's what the radio icon is for... LOL
Sticking with Next Launcher, never seen a nicer launcher since Apex Launcher.
