I am looking for a Friendstream like widget which works on stock ICS now scrollable widgets are enabled. It needs to be a 4x4 Widget that can aggregate at least both Twitter and Facebook into one stream and has an option to update now on the widget itself.
Sonet is the best I have found so far, before I buy the adfree version I'd just like some other recommendations.
Thanks,
Inq
Launcherpro plus has a similar widget

Aye I bought Launcher Pro Plus a long while back, but I want to use the stock launcher.
The paid version of Colorize widget in the market has a widget called timeline which I believe us the same thing as the friend stream widget on sense.

You can try WIZZ - it`s designed for tablets, but also works on ICS

Also Android Pro Widgets are great, and the paid version has plenty of Themes.

Both offer way more, then only Facebook widgets and allow a unified (sense like) look with their variety of widgets. Nothing to do with Facebook, but works nice together with the other widgets.
Nice complentary stuff also is offered by Glass widgets (nice for Home screen)

I'm looking for a widget that is roughly the size of two icons, that looks like the small one that HTC senses uses, but that works with Launcher Pro. Does anymore one make anything like this?
The included one with Launcher Pro is too big.
Any thoughts?

Beautiful widgets. Has both a standard sized 2x4 and a smaller one as well.

Tried Beautiful Widgets, didn't really like it's weather widgets but that Snowstorm one looks EXACTLY like what I was looking for.
Hell, the 1x2 widget even LOOKS like the HTC sense widget I've been missing since I went to Launcher Pro.
Snowstorm worked good.
Thanks!
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

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.

Is there an app that'll give me a widget showing all my Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites' updates in one screen? I used to enjoy the one from HTC Sense, so I'm wondering if there's one for the general Android environment?
LauncherPro Plus has what you're looking for.
^^^^^^^ Got it in one.

Is this available on the marketplace? I can only find Launcher Pro. Is that the same thing?
Yes its a purchased app, it replaces your home screen too, which has alot more features themes etc can be well customized to look really nice unlike touchwiz which you can't do alot with, once purchased Launcher Pro Plus Unlocker set Launcher Pro as default home and then menu key LP setting/account and your accounts choose sync times and then long press add widgets FB Twitter

Using Colorize too. It's brilliant.
Yes, but colorise widget (which i have previously used on sgs2) only has separate fb and twitter widgets. Launcher Pro plus has them both in a combined widget which is exactly like sense friendstream widget. It works perfectly too and has a semi-transparent skin.
Colorise works well too, but I just prefer having them combined as in LPP.
Just noticed that after using LPP i was still able to use the TW widgets. Coming from Evo HTC sense, didnt do that.
really???
thats awesome i love the standard clock widget. Thats why im still using tw
I love this feature. This phone kicks ass all the way around

This is only true for some of the widgets. For example, the digital clock is available but not any of the other clocks. Also the (useless?) Agenda widget is available but not any of the other calendar related widgets.
I normally don't use stock widgets but I do like the Samsung calendar/today widgets and of course, not available under an alternative launcher.
I can't seem to find anything that compares. Colorize widget was the closest I could find, but it doesn't work spd shell 3d. Any alternatives that will work without using a common launcher?

I feel your pain, I had sense withdrawls when I first switched, then they went away but lately they have been coming again. With all the issues I've had with sprint and the lack of support from samsung, I think I'm going back to htc soon.
Anyways, enough of my rant, the closest I have found is the "android pro widgets", and it's free! It comes as a pack with a friendstream style widget, bookmark, calendar and even people widgets.
I really don't get why touchwiz comes with 7 screens and practically no widgets. HTC makes the only phone I have ever been able to create a nice layout using all screens and not have wasted space.
I miss feeds and updates widget that was on the first epic. Don't know why it's gone on the S2. If it's bcuz of social hub they could at least had added a widget for it!

Thx, but unfortunately it doesn't scroll for me and that arrow down is flakey

If you're looking for 3rd party (truly) scrollable widgets for spb shell 3d you won't find any. The reason APW uses a scroll button is the lack of scrollable widget support in your used launcher.
I use APW on my view tablet with and it is awesome. Better than sense for sure. If you really want friendstream, switch to launcherpro plus instead of touchwiz. LPP is smooth as hell and the widgets are awesome.
