Hello,
I am enjoying the Hero builds but I have a "request" at anybody who can help me/us:
I would like to use the HTC weather widget but it does not seem to update for about 4 hours or more.
It would be great when it would update hourly so I would not have to start the weather app which always delays the loading of the home screen so I have a lag about 10 or more second ...
Is it possible to change the update frequency somewhere in the app?
Do you know why there is always the com.htc.dcs.impl & com.htc.dcs.stock running when using the weather widget?
Would be really great if you could help me with this update thing, thank you.
Why dont you just update it manually? I think on the bottom of the weather widget if you click on the little bar it should update. I cant be 100% sure on this cause I'm on cyan 3.6.5. Please someone with hero correct me if im wrong.
neone notice tht the flip clock widget is only slow when weather is enabled..so when u install hero n u got no wifi its without weather so its fast....neone know how to make it flip clock w/o weather ?

Yes, you are right when you use the biggest widget which needs a full homescreen.
But when you use the two smaller widgets (I have it on to left at my main homescreen) there is no button for update - so the only possibility is to change the config somewhere I think?
Has really no one any idea?

I believe the only to have the flip clock with out weather is to not have the weather set up for your location. Correct me if I am wrong. I have seen the clock without weather after using the hero roms and was puzzled because I had no weather. I set it up and it appeared. The opposite thing should work for you.

i think the only way to get the flip clock without weather is to not have your clock set up
let me elaborate
when u select the clock app you have cities set up right?
like i have atlanta on there
and then u also have the timzone clock and the extra clock i always have that shows up which is gay but w/e back on topic
when u select the flip clock from htc widget screen it asks u to select a city
if u select current city (not an actual city name) the weather wont show up on the clock
thats the only way i can get the clock without weather
hope it helps :-D
JUST install the weather widget from the market it contains the clock from hero and the weather...works on the Cynaogen build...1.49 from market but works good...

I think when you press the current city it looks for your location

yes, but I know how the weather is at my current location - also it does not update automatically ...
if you want a flip clock without weather, try retro date (and clock) from market

Maybe it works like the flip clock/ weather widget. When I wanted to change the frequency (update interval) the only way I could find was to drag the widget to the trash bin and then re-launch it from the home screen (like most widgets) then it asks for location and update frequency like a fresh install.

hmm - the HTC Weather or flip clock widget does not ask for the frequency ... I think it must be in the file / apk - but where & how?
I'm looking for a flipclock without weather on it as well....
Solved the update frequency issue if you're still wondering about it.

Htc Flip clock
I'm Running the largest flip clock with weather on latest cm build with no issues make sure you have it exluded form any task managers
Does anyone know where i can find this?
ive looked everywhere..ive tried beautiful widgets and Weather add on but they both dont work..anyone got one that works?
I believe any of the hero widgets you see on a dream install are fakes. Not that they dont look great but you would have to run a flavor of hero to get the actual hero clock.
Its called Weather Widget by the same developer that makes Lock 2.0 and Battery Widget
So is there a way to get the Hero Flip clock with the weather running on the HTC Dream (Rogers) ?
The weather widget on the market is a clone of it. (It lacks the animations i think, but it has a free version)
Other than running hero i dont think there is a way to run the actual one.
do you know exactly what it's called?
You want Weather Widget Donate and the Forecast add-on which is free, and enables the animations.
Doesn't let me put Canadian places, and it reports temperature in fahrenheit
Paid version of "Weather Widget" has a 2nd download that offers up all the Heor animations
Is it possible to have HTC Hero Clock widget on CM 4.2.3? If so what files I need to apply? Please just give me an idea if its possible to do.
Thanks!!
Look up beautiful widgets its a replica of the HTC clock and little settings switches ,
So far only way to get it on doughnut until HTC updates their sense UI
The BeautifulWidgets app is very good. I've had some problems in the past getting it to sync correctly, though. The Beautiful pack has a few other decent widgets mixed in with it too.
or use weather widget donate for the touchflo3d look clock with the weather
Thanks for ideas guys. I already tried weather widget donate and no complaints. I'm going to try Beautiful Widgets now.
Does anyone know of a clock widget that is or can be made to look like the clock that is on the Froyo lock screen?
Free would be nice, but not required. I really like the font for the lockscreen clock.
Also, Im running cm6 stable.
i imagine beautiful widgets would have at least one skin matching your criteria. the skin i'm using atm looks fairly similar to the lock clock . See my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728911 for an example (and the background/weather/blue can be removed).

One More Clock (Collection) by Xaffron Software does it well. 4x2 size is free but you can "donate" to get different sizes or if you can resize it with LauncherPro (recommended app) if you have it. Just do "One More Clock" in the market.
ClockWidget by Skipper Juul Thors0 is another, but just the time, no date.
The font is called "Clockopia".
I tried BeautifulWidgets, not free, and although they have the font, they have a lot that I have no need for (yet) so I'm getting a refund (for now).
