[Q] G S 3 clock/weather widget? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I've looked around and can't find it.
Is there a way to have the clock/weather widget from the Galaxy S 3 on our GNex's?
I like the images and cleanness from the widget and would love it on my current setup
thanks in advance, any help and or suggestions greatly appreciated

I'm looking for simply the clock/weather widget.
I use Nova Prime and don't want to change launchers or use all the functions and features I've got with Nova.
Is the widget dependent on touchwiz framework? Perhaps there is an independent .apk of the weather widget?
I am going to look for a themed UCCW widget.
Thanks for pointing that link out though

Edit: I couldn't get the background images to ever display correctly after importing the uzip.... everything was as it should have been. Shame, looked like a keeper.
The search continues!

Free Calendar app

Is there a free Calendar app that has a 4x4 widget that syncs with google calendar...
Struggling to find one that works on my nexus

Personally I'm using the default Calender widget. You can resize it to 4x4. It's not as good as Simple Calender Widget but until that is fixed for ICS it's better than nothing.

You learn something every day, I did not know you could re-size widgets.
Ive succesfully done that but it just shows today, can you change the view to a monthly calendar?
Thanks though mate, appreciated
No prob. Glad to to help.
I don't see any way to change the display settings of the Calender widget though. Seems like it's stuck like that.

Have you tried Jorte? I don't know if it's updated for ICS yet, but it's my go-to calendar. You can display the whole month in a 4x3 or 4x4, with your calendar entries actually spelled out, instead of just a dot that you have to zoom in on to see what it is. Pure Calendar Widget also does this, but is widget only, and costs $2.99 in the market.
Android pro widgets is really clean.. Also it includes a nice timeline style widget with both Facebook and twitter!
I recommend the paid version.. Some good themes.
Edit: forgot I was still in galaxy Nexus forums.. Not sure if it is ics compatible.

Go launcher not showing stock s3 weather widget

Guys i installed go launcher and i like it very much
But yhe thing is it doesbt show up stock weather widget
When i turn off go launcher and use touchwiz the weather widget is there and in go launcher it doesnt show up
Pls help

This widget needs Touchwiz Framework and Touchwiz Launcher to work. That's the reason why it doesn't work on any other launcher.
This is common among devices with proprietory uis

Sorry, but it does work on the SGS2 with Go Launcher. Are you sure we cant make it work on the SGS3?
Since you already use go launcher, why not try go weather ex from the market? I haven't used it myself, but it looks promising.

I know the feeling. Its a beautiful widget but it doesnt work on Go, Apex or Nova etc. I have tried. There may be a way but so far not broken.
Guys, I'm telling you I have it working on an S2. Here's the screen capture, you can see the widget above and the left-button Go Launcher menu at the bottom.
There's got to be a way to make it work on the S3.

What works on your s2 is irrelevant. Its most likely an updated version on your s3 with new code, probably specifically designed only to work with touchwiz. If it doesn't show up in go launcher then it doesn't work. Its as simple as that

That is old Accuweather widget, the new S3 version won't work with any others launcher at the moment.
Ok, so -for the moment- could someone post the S2 version of the widget apk? That would solve the problem, wouldn't it?

It depends. Did that widget work on other devices such as HTC? If yes, then yes. If no then maybe not.
Download a s2 touchwiz custom rom and extract the apk to find out

OP ask for S3 Accuweather widget not S2 Accuweather widget, both is different. S2 Accuweather widget is so ugly compare with this new S3 one.
I do hoping someone can make the S3 Accuweather working for launcher others than stock TouchWiz.
Fancy widgets is my preferred option even over beautiful widgets.
S3 widget is nicer, but I'd settle for the S2 one. For the moment.
Try "beautiful widgets" it's a highly customizable weather widget.
My favorite...
beautiful widget doesn,t have such beautiful accu weather,,, i am missing it on apex launcher, i hope someone will port

Ok, here's the S2 apk. It won't install on my S3. Bummer.
Try push it to system/app

I would need root for that, right?

It's already in system/app. How do I start it? If I tap the apk directly, it just tries to install itself.
Everyone who keeps naming all these launchers that are already known must not have seen the new widget on the s3. That widget is the sole purpose I'm keeping tw launcher for now, it's visually better than any other weather widget PERIOD. Praying someone modifies this to work on other launchers

Add the Calendar widget to this question as well. Only downfall of using a custom launcher as both of those are actually pretty nice widgets.
I'm looking for Accuweather apk also. I made this same thread in this same forum last week.
Accuweather widget looks great! I want this on my apex Launcher.

Touchwiz Calender Widget
Am really trying to get the Samsung Calender Widgets to work on APEX. And FYI, Nova sucks and crashes with themes, APEX has a lot more settings and is way better. Not sure where the widgets for the launchers are stored, im sure if we extracted the apk and placed it in the APEX launcher widgets it would recognize. Def a lot more difficult than it soundsd. Anybody have any progress on this
I would also like to use the calendar and weather widgets with other launchers

Weather widget that doesn't look like Sense?

I've seen some pretty slick weather Widgets screenshots but can't for the life of me find the damn thread. I'm looking for something that doesn't look like sense. Big and pretty is what I'm going after.
I have beautiful Widgets and a few others but nothing appeals to me or doesn't resize to use screen space. Any suggestions?
Also where in the hell is the "Show me your Setup" thread? I've looked in Apps, General, and Q/A
Update:
Found Weather Widgets suitable for now. Still open to suggestions. Links or screenshots preferred.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Try HD Weather Widget. It is HIGHLY customizable and you can make it look as close or as different from Sense as you like.
Here's the show me your screen thread.

There's also Beautiful widgets. It's a bit less complex. I get lost in HD widgets.
i am using asus weather

like the clean and simple look
i like palmary weather i bought the pro one. 4x4 is biggest you can go so it doesnt fill screen but the 15 day forecast is nice.
Asus weather? Nice and big...:laugh:
Weather Eye has awesome widgets that are resizable & customizable.
This is the weather app I've been waiting for.

I love be weather and the options
Yea Asus Weather is great and I used it on my N7 before but I came from a Transformer so looking for something different. Ill probably give HD Widgets a go.
Whatever I'm using now is already getting boring.
HD Widgets was what I was looking for. The 4x4 weather widget. They didn't have it in the screenshots so I passed over it. Its OK.

Google weather widget

Hey guys I was wondering if it would be possible to turn the first result you get in a weather search in jelly bean into an interactive widget. I think that would be cool.

Agreed this would be brilliant and I'm sure one of the developers round here could do it.
I'd like to see this too. I've thought about it before.
I've actually tried doing it before with various apps that grab data from website and put them in widgets but its the design and simplicity of the google weather thing thats so perfect for an android widget.
I'd be willing to pay for this for sure!
