Hi,
If you use world clock type of widget on your new Galaxy Nexus, what is it?
I am looking for a nice simple world clock widget, with ICS looks preferebly.
And the one that is NOT draining the battery a lot (we have enough battery drain with ICS on Galaxy Nexus).
So, please, if you have and use one, let us know. Screenshot would be appreciated.
Note this is about world clock, widget to show clock of other city around the world.
Thanks

Does anyone know where i can find a htc sense clock and weather (or near enough) for free? Please help :-{
Just search for a Fancy Widget with Google and you'll find it.
I shared a black version of it here. Or you can find the original white one here. But numbers dont flip like in the new sense interface, Fancy Widget is based on old sense clock.
Thank you very much :-D
Fancy Widgets has just released a new version.

anybody tried and compare this with beautiful widget? They look awfully the same, so I'm not sure why they would want to develop something similiar unless there's some flip animation or similiar sort.
at least with beautiful widgets there are skinning and pop up weather animation. with fancy widget it looks just plain ..
Any cool widgets i can get for my galaxy s? And ideas? Any input welcome

What is required to make them flip? That's kind of the whole point of having a flip clock, to enjoy the animation when the numbers change over. I downloaded the sense clock and was immediately disappointed.
I'm looking for a Sense style flip clock/weather widget to use with CM7. I know, since its AOSP, that thats a mighty high request. But heres my reasoning. Ive seen some ROM's and themes that use the Sense Clock widget on a Non-Sense build. And its not Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widget. Its seems like its the same clock to a T. I would use BW, but I'm anal about my homescreen, and the fact the corners on so sharp on the BW is just ugly to me. I know theres physically no way to get Sense widgets on an AOSP build, but anyone know of any widgets that are exactly the same?
There is an older Fancy Widget apk floating around which is almost indistinguishable from the Sense flip clock.

thats awesome. would you know where i could find such a thing?
Just search for Sense Analog Clock on the Market and there are some nice ones and they are free. Mine shows Time, date, Internal memory free, RAM free, Battery temp, Battery % and weather. You can also download free skins for it to make it look the way you want it.
that ones not bad. but I remember the beautiful widgets looking almost exactly like the sense clock. anyone know where I can get this?

I sent you a PM.
EDIT: Actually for some reason, it isn't letting me send the PM. "Private Messaging is temporarily unavailable"
EDIT2: If you search teh Google for Fancy Widget v1.2.4 or Fancy Widget v1.3.0 -- I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.
I think fancy widgets is closer. If you get the pro, there are skins you can get that make it pretty much identical.
Here is a post with a bunch of themed fancy widget apks that close to the sense clock:

Hello XDA members and anonymous stalkers,
Hopefully in this forum someone might be able to help.
Last week-end I tried the new Samsung Galaxy S2 and I found out there's still some widgets that are not available on the web for users using the TW4 but on the Galaxy S.
For example there's a widget made by AP News and most importantly, I found out there's now also a Analog Dual Clock that looks very much like the one on the HTC Sense.
I've looked on the web, download a few roms mentioning they have a lot of SGS2 widgets but none had the Analog Dual Clock.
Can anybody with a SGS2 export this most excellent widget or does anybody knows where can I find it?
I tried to find a picture of the widget but unfortunately I could not find any. So I've attached the one from HTC Sense.
Thanks a lot everybody!
At least a new widget on this forum was found to help complete the SGSII widget list, thanks to the request of aatif.bilal and to the apk package from SRgustavo, we have now a the Daily Briefing widget: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192094
But the Anolog Dual clock is still missing
find something?
This App is better than Samsung

Try this app. This is better than Samsung dual clock widget. This display analog and digital plus you can add Max 3 cities.
What would you buy? HD Widgets or Beautiful Widgets?
HD Widgets got an update today and are on sale now. Not sure if it is a good deal.
Maybe somebody tried both?

I have both. I only use HD Widgets because it's very polished. Beautiful Widgets allows you to install different themes for the widgets, which is awesome, but when I used it the selection was unappealing to me. I'm sure there are more themes now, though.
Never used HD Widgets, but Beautiful Widgets has a loooot of themes.
Here's my home screen widget just for reference. I'm using the full screen widget for the Galaxy Note (5x5).

I've had beautiful Widgets since my Droid 1, 2 years ago.
I like it, and for $3 I really got my use out of it. After getting my nexus though, the screen is so brilliant, I kind of don't want to take up half that space with a clock widget. I think I might just finally be done with clock apps, I do remember trying HD widgets way back in the day and deciding on Beautiful Widgets.
I guess for me, I say BW only because I know what I'm getting, and the themes are great. It's really easy to get away from the default HTC look.
I also have both but the new HD Widgets beta version the weather does not work.

For my Nexus I'm using BW since it has a lot of customisation options (although I really hate how the location name disappears under the weather icon for places with long names). I have HDW as well which I use on my Transformer Prime since BW has awful scalability for large screens. I very much prefer the widget layout of HDW but I can't find a theme on it that I really like over BW.

i too have both...BW for phone, HDW for tablet
i hadn't had HDW on my phone in ages and installed the latest 'update'...it was crashing ALL day, even without an active widget i was getting a "hd widgets has crashed" popup, but worse than that for me, the widget was only displaying in farenheit even though i'd selected celsius, which makes it totally useless gibberish
i won't be updating to the new version on my tablet
I have also bought both of them. Beautiful Widgets feels like it works better for a phone interface because the 4x2 Clock/Weather widget looks like it fits better on the screen and is highly themeable (for us who flash new themes and ROMs frequently).
I use HD Widgets for my tablet as the giant clock/weather widgets fit the screen much better than Beautiful Widgets does and the transparency and light theming works on my tablet as i don't flash with it nearly as much.
Just my thoughts
As with some posters above, I am a long-time BW owner, going back to the early days of the OG Droild. I loved it back then. Now, the look of those big clocks with overly-dramatic weather icons looks so 2009 to me.
After getting the GNex, I just couldn't devote so much homescreen space and I didn't want something that looked so "tired" to me, so I bought Make Your Clock Widget Pro. I designed a minimalistic "clock" widget and it's been in service on my GNex for months now. For me, it's perfect, and it's unique - just what I want, how I want it - nothing else.
Consider escaping the BW/HD Widgets look, and just go make your own.
Here’s a screenshot…
Thanks!!!
Make your clock is totally great!
I installed a free version and one widget even works. And this is ok for me.
Not sure if weather works. But I will check that later. Clock was a priority.

Nice design btw!
HD Widgets beta 3.0.1 latest play store update keeps crashing an constantly sending crash reports to google, chewing the fu#k out of my battery life with crash reports every 2 minutes even with widget removed.

I like this one after using all sort of clock widget. It consume the least batter among widgets I used. The Con: I cannot touch it to go anywhere else, such as Alarm clock or settings.
One more clock. Pretty customizable and you can customize what app you can open with it

I use a combo of BeWeather and the Beautiful Widgets apps. I have my display using a custom ICS looking Beautiful Widgets clock/weather combo, and enjoy the animations/info from BeWeather. It gives a lot of tweaking ability. Highly recommended.
I'd send you the links, but because I haven't posted much, it won't let me. Do a search on Google Play and you'll find them.
