I've seen a few threads pertaining to htc sense widgets but none for the sIII
has anyone found a way to add locations of smaller towns that aren't listed in the main search when trying to add locations to the widget?
it was not so bad to do on my old winmo phone, slightly more difficult on my old evo4g but would like to add to the twiz widget
thanks

Has anybody been able to extract the HTC widgets included on the Hero and turn them into downloadable programs for other phones?
Would be cool! Also if we somehow could reverse-engineer the widgets create our owns. Love the fact that you can toggle the same widget between different layouts.
No way. Really.
Ok I have seen a lot of difference between the Accuweather cities list in other apps like ''beautiful widgets'' and the one of HTC weather.
I mean the HTC one lacks lot of cities so how can we add cities for the app? any xml file to mod or something?
Hey guys
I was wondering if it was possible to have htc widgets on a rom which is not sense? I did look for an answer but couldnt find anything.
Thanks
Hey,
as far as I know this sadly isn't possible. The widgets will only work on a sense rom.
But you can have a look at the widgets and apps by the Go Dev team. For example there's a GoWeather widget, with different themes available so it can be made to look like the htc's clock and weather widget. It is a pretty acceptable substitute.
And try the pure calendar and pure grid calendar widgets too
There are apps in the market and in the apps forum that have similar look/feel to the HTC widgets, but you won't be able to simply copy an .apk of a HTC sense clock and just put it on a non-Sense phone unfortunately.
hello!
i'm not looking for info on how to edit apk's. google will help me about that. what i would like to know is, how much hassle is to edit apk?
the thing is, i'm running sense 3 rom which is a bit faster than sense 3.5 on my device, thus more pleasant to use. but sense 3 clock uses 4x2 grid and covers much of the homescreen in opposite to sense 3.5 4x1 clock widget. i found sense clock 4x1 in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1595236, but it doesn't show weather. i believe it's due to google weather being shut down. so i would like to edit this particular apk just to use different weather provider, like accuweather or maybe some croatian local service, whatever. so, how much of a work is it? i mean, setting up tools and finding the right line in code, compiling back, etc... if it's to much work for a complete noob in this area just to edit this one thing, then it's perhaps better for me to not dwell into these waters. for decompiling, editing and compiling back i'll refer to other topics and allmighty google. for now i just need this info...thx...
p.s. or if there's another 4x1 sense clock widget with working weather provider, feel free to point me in right direction. i've tried searching but came empty handed...thanks, all!
ok, to answer my own question, i've found "apk multitool" which turned to be pretty easy to setup with just a little bit of reading. now, i'm trying to find where should i change google weather api to something else, but looking to .xml files and weather forecast smali files i couldn't find anything. oh, i did found this value: "http://mw.weather.com/setloc?q=", which, when entered into firefox, brings me to weather.com webpage. and setloc part from the url brings me to believe it's purpose is to aquire location.
at this point i'm stuck. does anyone know where to look to change weather api?
Hi guys!
I was thinking if there's any "hybrid" widgets, which lets you add widgets to the widget itself? Mainly for the widget viewpager, so that small 1*1 widgets can be added to one page as one hybrid widget. I attached a screenshot of the viewpager, in case anyone knows it under a different name/doesn't know what it is.
