Just wondering is it possible to have 2 or more people widget?

Um... try adding a second widget and see if it works.

Well as it is it would be pointless to have 2 since they would both show starred (favorite) contacts, so the first thing is to have it be customizable

Widgets?

So we've got the clock and search bar built in....
Do we know about other widgets? I recall hearing there was a delay or something on widgets.
I'd like one that shows the weather/calendar items on the home page so I don't have to check manually. Yeah, nothing too big, just wondering if anyone knew what's up with the lack of widgets out there.
Thanks.
The widget API is not ready/existent yet.

Seriously please look at the date, how are you even on a thread from that long ago?

Can anyone help me get this clock?

I just want the clock. I think it's pretty sick. Can anyone let me know how to get it or just make the file themselves it would be very much appreciated.
Its part of Beautiful Widgets. You can buy it from the Market.

I could do a theme for the HTC weather clock later today. I need to finish working on my fence and I'll check to see if anyone has worked on it.

need the htc battery widget

i cant find it on htc hub any more... and that on was big widget, and no like the the small battery widget that made by htc.
btw: wird, i have very limited widgets (4) on otc hub.
Yeah, i have only 4 too. Last time I saw the widget on the market, maybe you'll have more luck there. I would recommend QuickBattery for a battery widget.

1, Long press your main screen space.
2, Add htc widget.
3, Scroll down for "setting".
4, find something new, right?

Copying widgets?

Is there a way to copy a widget from one screen and paste it on another so they appear on both screens?
The reason I am asking is because I am using minimalist text widget and the restore function isn't working and it's kind of a pain rewrite 4 widgets of custom text on every screen...
So I'd like to know if I can copy them?
Thanks!
I believe that there is no way to do that

it's funny, because i saw apps that can copy "widgets from one rom to the other" but yet, nothing from one screen to the other
you would think my suggestion would be simpler, hehe
oh well, i'll take an hour or so today and do it by hand...thanks...

Zooper widgets

I've been searching around and I found a big thread on XDA with all the RRO Layers and Nav bars, but I haven't found a dedicated area outside of a Google+ page for Zooper widgets in .zw form for download. Is there a master thread or large thread where these are usually posted ?

Just a heads up: Zooper is "abandonware"
You can still use it, but it's no longer supported by anyone official. What does that mean on a practical basis?
No updates. So when the only reasonably accurate provider of weather data available for Zooper (Yahoo) changes its API, Zooper is not updated to follow suit, and you're left with no weather info worth a damn.
Replacement recommendation:
KWGT
Good luck!

Ao zooper is not used anymore? I never used it in the past but I just started looks like I'm late to the party. LOL. this was hot new stuff in 2013 when I first started using android. I noticed the yahoo weather doesn't work. Is KWGT like zooper?

Very very much. I have a Zooper widget on the Play store, and have converted my designs to KWGT with little difficulty.
Best part: weather info is from weather.com, which is more accurate than Yahoo!
bought it myself few weeks back and realized 3 days later that its totally worthless not to mention for the widgets to actually work you need to buy other apps as well... total rip-off!
i know that this is not an answer to the OP but posting it so others wont waste their money.

I get it. My storefront on Play clearly states you must purchase Zooper Pro for my widgets to work.
I'm debating whether or not to add text to my storefront indicating that Yahoo weather info is not available any longer on Zooper. Part of me wants to insert such a warning, the other part says it's not my responsibility to make statements on behalf of Zooper.

The weather issue seems easy enough to fix in the code, I wonder why Zooper dosen't fix it ? It looks like Zooper had an update March 16 ? What do you sell on Playstore ?

What did you buy ? KWGT ?
Was playing around with KLWP and KWGT during my lunch break. I didn't look at the tutorial videos, but it looks very confusing and complicated and a lot to take in. I may need to set aside some time where I can go over it again slowly.

KWGT isn't more difficult to use than Zooper. I just switched my main clock widget and made a few changes in less than 5 minutes.

Did you re-create your widget or were you able to upload it ? I have a widget that was pre-made in Zooper I'm not sure how to make and I'd like to try and transfer it to KWGT. I probably just need to mess around with it more.

Yeah, it SHOULD be an easy fix. But that's assuming there's someone around to fix it... And from what I've pieced together online, there isn't. By the way, according to the Play store, the last update is March 11, 2015.

I'm not going to speak for Seabro, but I recreated my widgets, I didn't upload them because KWGT does some things quite differently under the hood (scaling, positioning and text handling, so forth). There's some things that Zooper does better, but I feel KWGT does more things. Just my opinion.

Yeah, I recreated the widget. KWGT is pretty easy to use once you get used to it.
