Hi all,
I'm interested in using Beautiful Widgets with any ROM in order to create a HTC-like sense in Launcher2. Only thing is, I can't find a ROM that supports it very well. Is anyone using a certain ROM with Beautiful Widgets successfully?
Thanks in advance!

Ok but that's not a "beautiful widget"....that's an HTC widget ....if I am thinking of the same one

No, its a beautiful widget. I know what you're talking about, its worked with every ROM i've used but I prefer the HTC widgets in all honesty. Why are you using BW anyway out of curiosity.
I want to simulate what HTC widgets might look like in Launcher2

The HTC-like widgets were removed sometime around version ~2.3-2.4 due to a cease and desist order from HTC.
Older versions will still have them.

You techically answered your own question.
The two that I know of is Beautiful Widgets and Weather Widget. There is also a free version.
Fancy widget is the best ive seen for free!
There's a metamorph though that can give you the sense analog too, in case you're interested.
And congrats on becoming a mod binary

Fancy Widgets is quite nice.
It's working well so far, the weather is generally a degree or two off of my local news forecast, but I think that's expected since it's probably using a much broader weather feed.
I do wish it wasn't 3+ MB though. Oh well, can't have everything.

First of all, has anyone tried Laucherpro Plus? It has a ton of widgets that are built specifically to be similar to the Sense widgets (e.g., message widgets, mail widgets, calendar widgets, etc.). It's $2.99, basically if you dl Launcherpro from the Market you can upgrade to it.

Secondly, there are many widgets out there that replicate the Sense widgets. Someone mentioned Beautiful Widgets, which serves the same purpose but doesn't look the same. Do some digging on the forums and you'll find Fancy Widget. It was taken off the Market by HTC because it looks exactly like the Clock/Weather Sense widget.

Thirdly, the launcher dock for Sense acts like the launcher dock for Sense. Sense is the Launcher setup, which includes specific widgets, the same way that Launcherpro has its own widgets. Think of the launcher as the controlling aspect of the operating system; it defines what you can and cannot use in terms of shortcuts, folders, and widgets. So in short, no ... but you certainly can make one look a whole lot like the other. It just takes some work.
And yes Fancy Widget looks exactly like the sense weather clock, and works great, I have been using it on the LP for a couple of months now and no issues, Google it you will find it still in a couple of forum and you can scan and download it. I would post it here but I believe it is against the forum rules, so if you don't find it PM me and I will get it to you
Hi. Is there an apk file for the HTC clock widget? I'm about to switch to the cm ROM and I want the HTC clock widget. I prefer the flip clock(doesn't flip on aria though) with the weather. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

I don't know about a "flipping" one but Factory Widgets makes one very similar to the HTC clock. If you search for it in the market using the maker it is impossible to miss.

Yes, you will have to load a 3rd party widget because the HTC clock widget is dependent upon HTC Sense which CM 6/7 does not support.
I think the factory widget designs, even those aped from HTC, look horrible. I personally recommend fancy widgets and to a much lesser extent beautiful Widgets if you're looking for well made clock weather widgets.

Fancy widget definitely. I have an older version and its identical to the sense clock.

Fancy widget is one of the few apps I actually paid for. +1 for Fancy widget.
Fancy Widgets is great but I like the beautiful Widgets because you can choose many styles of the HTC clock to change it up a bit and rock your style.

Hi all,
Just installed DL30 w/ super clean .7 I was wondering if there is anyway to get the facebook widget? or some of the useful ones. The widget selection on here is kinda bunk.
You have to install the Facebook application from the market.

Look into colorize widgets. Kind of like HTC Sense widgets.
As far as I remember it installs with the app. Pure messenger widget will do the same thing.... well sorted of.

If you are using android 2.3 you should download this app that allows to customise your rom lockscreen.
Have you even wanted to have MIUI lockscreen? So, go to this web page and download MiLocker.
Thanks me

When you select a lock theme there is an option below to include the wallpaper or not. You can unselect it if you want your default homescreen wallpaper.
Also note thats its only hdpi. Can someone port it to mdpi? I wonder why miui make it to hdpi devices knowing most hdpi device can use miui not with mdpi devices.

That's way cool. I can't thank you enough for this. Been missing these ever since I moved to CM7 (damn MIUI kept corrupting my sd during restarts)
Does it support widgets and apps on lockscreen?
Some themes work on my mdpi phone- the very first one and the wp7 default ones work... trying to find others now.
I can't seem to get any of the themes from the MIUI lockscreen thread on here to work, just goes to homescreen with a notification bar which doesn't work.
Anyone else had better luck?
