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.

I screwed up and accidently removed the favorites thing on a fresh install on the left screen and now i can't figure out how to get it back. I don't see anything in add>widgets but i may be missing it if it's named something different. Anyone know how to get this back?
its the people widget

yeah i don't see that under menu>add>widgets?
are you using launcher pro?
yeah i installed the one in the RLS4 thread themed already
bump because i really want this back
your problem is launcher pro.. if you want to use a HTC widget/s, you have to be using rosie/sense home launcher.. not launcher pro..
I'm currently running leedroid's HTC Sense Rom on my desire, but i've installed the MIUI roms on my moms and a friends Desire and I really like the GUI changes they've made.
I'm thinking about using MIUI on my phone now, but I don't think I can live without HTC's Clock app.
I've tried a bunch of clock/alarm/timer apps in the market, nothing is as good as HTC's. And I can't find any they have all those things integrated into one app. The other seperate apps for timer or alarm are also ugly compared to HTC's.
So Is there anyway to get the HTC Clock app to work on a non sense rom? I don't really need the widgets or the related weather app and widgets. All i really want is the clock app.
I tried opening up the zip file of leedroids rom and copying all the clock or weather named APK files to my SD card. None of them would install though.
download Wearher & Toggle Widget from android market.there is a similar skin as in htc clock.

As I mentioned I'm not really concerned about the widgets. I want the HTC clock app that has Tabs along the bottom to switch between the clocks, alarms, stopwatch & timer.

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!

I'm trying out a new launcher (ZEAM) and it looks like HTC Sense still stays open in the background.. how do I get rid of it completely? I don't want 2 launchers running..
Also - anyway to use the HTC Widgets on Zeam? I love the Calendar widget and the weather/clock one

Here is calkulins flashable zip that will completely remove HTC sense from your phone. This will also remove all sense widgets I believe. Also, I have never used Zeam launcher, but I would speculate that you can't use HTC sense widgets on it (at least you cant with launcher pro or adw launcher). They only work with sense. There are quite a few other widgets out there though that look very similar to HTC's widgets.

Also here is a link to calk's page that all sorts of mods/tweaks/goodies and such. Useful bookmark. They work on pretty much any sense rom.

Is it possible to get sense 3.0 widgets for cm7?
No, the frameworks don't match.
I am saddened. Deeply Saddened. The HTC weather widget is so sick, but I am tired of my Sense 3.0 ROM lagging like crap and having random force closes.
Is there anything that resembles the HTC weather app?
id be suprised if you cant download it straight from the market to be honest. you can get every other sense widget or copy of sense widget from the market im sure you can get this one.

If you just want the clock widget, there are lots of 'copy-cat' Sense widgets in the market.
delete Ignore
I'm actually just looking for the weather app. The sense 3.0 weather app is just frigging spectacularly mind blowing.
All other widgets are okay...
I tried the GO Weather but it's not the same...
EDIT: I tried searching on google, XDA, and the market, to no avail.
My search strings were
htc sense widgets
sense weather widget
sense weather
etc
etc
help?
What Sense 3 ROM are you running ? I wouldn't say that Unity was too laggy with overclocking,must admit the widgets are part of the reason that I sticking with sense,Ive yet to see an alternative to sense contacts.
Launcher Pro(Paid version) has a clock/weather widget that is similar or fancy widgets could be an option ?
I tried it, didn't like it.
I tried LPP plus, adw ex, zeam, remus, SPB 3D, MXHOME, honeycomb launcher, launcher 7, nothing works.
Currently using GO EX launcher.
I also spent a ton of time searching for the exact same thing... hoping I could get the Sense clock/weather widget on CM7. The closest thing I've been able to find is, as bombadier suggested, Fancy Widgets. It's not exactly the same, but it is pretty close, and has different skins you can use and easily switch back and forth.
