[Q] Transparent Stock Weather Widget For LGOG - Sprint LG Optimus G

I'm new but not really new to xda. Was wondering if any of the brilliant minds are working on making the stock JVB weather widget transparent or other options like fancy widgets does. Tried using the fancy widgets app but dosent work well on my phone since jumping from OGEVO to LGOG. Thanks in advance. And great work guys.

Beautiful Widgets is my go to for weather widgets. Thousands of themes to choose from.

Thanks for the reply

Another suggestion is the WeatherBug app. The widgets it comes with are nice. They can be clear too.

I usually just stick my head out of the window while driving.
Admittedly, this does not forecast the weather for me all that well, but I'm a live in the moment kind of guy.
In all seriousness though, Eye In The Sky has been my favorite weather widget to date.

Launcher Pro Weather Widget

hey guys I just downloaded launcher pro and pro plus, I can't find my stock weather widget, is there a fix or something to get it back inside launcher pro? plus I can't find a short cut for my 4g, airplane mode, GPS etc. buttons, can someone help me I'm a noob to this stuff

HTC widgets will not be available while LauncherPro or Pro + is your launcher. Switch back to the stock launcher to access HTC widgets.
thanks Doug, it would be a perfect launcher if the HTC Widgets were available, oh yea loving the Miami hurricanes avatar, that's who I root for

you can find the power control widget when you long press for a widget, it has most of the options, the 4g toggle widget you find it on the market, and a similar weather widget you could try fancy widget pro, which i think its free only today on amazon store

I agree. Anyway, here is a photo of my current homescreen. I use the Beautiful Widgets Weather, Minimalistic Text for the Date as well as LauncherPro.
thanks emc the power control widget is cool, and Doug thanks also, I put beautiful Widgets super clock on my home screen, gives me what I wanted... the big clock and the current weather for the city I'm in, plus I can still tap the minutes and bring up my alarms etc..

Started using Be Weather today after trying to help someone with issues. Fantastic weather animations.
Downloaded 1Weather and mClock. When I mentioned Beautiful widgets I had a feeling Fancy Widgets would still be mentioned lol. Thank you guys for the suggestions!
Any more?

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.

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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1713975
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.

Are there any animated weather widgets?

Would be cool to see moving sun rays or rain falling from a weather widget.
I'm curious about this too...
My HTC One X had an awesome weather widget... one of the many things I miss about that phone.
Bump.
I want to know this too

Sense have moving weather i believe hopefully somebody can confirm (or shoot me down in flames), not looked myself but maybe somebody has ported the sense apps from htc?

Beautiful widgets has animation. Pretty nice might be what your looking for.

Beautiful Widgets has animated weather when you tap on the widget. What I think the OP wants is the actual home screen widget to be animated.

Bingo.

Beautiful Widgets also has an animated wallpaper that changes with the weather and time of day. Battery friendly too. For the weather (or clock) you can select from hundreds of themes.

trying to find a good weather widget, post your screenshots

I feel like i have tried every weather widget and cant seem to find a nice one. they either drain the battery (i like the refresh on wake setting) or the graphics are blah. i'm looking for one with a crisp HD look, transparency settings, and the ability to customize a little so i am asking if a few of you wouldnt mind posting a screenshot of your widget and give a little info on it to see if maybe there is something out there i havent tried or tried but didnt realize the potential haha. Thanks!!

The best weather widget personally is pre built into htc sense :'( i loved the weather widget from sense 4.1 but a good alternative is bz weather clear animations and doesn't chew battery up...

I use the transparent stock widget from the S4. Its nice especially if you use custom wallpapers or you just don't like tacky, bulky looking widgets on your home screen.
Beautiful Widgets and HD Widgets are both crisp. HD Widgets is higher end thus uses more cpu and system resources. Personally BW suits my liking, light on system usage, lots of cusomized themes, it has a nice lockscreen widget as well.

i have used BW in the past, i did like the customized themes but for some reason stopped (i think because i was in search of a flip clock that was as smooth as some of the sense ones that actually flip nicely, i gave up lol) its been awhile so i will have to give it another run.

I'm using fancy widgets, and weather screen - weather screen had lots of options but worth it. Its like sense background weather without the wipers when raining, you can even set the amount of battery usage. Just check it out.
