I was wondering if there were any widgets out there that were very similar to the HTC Sense version.
Also, do they support google voice? Because I use google voice as my main source of SMS.
Beautiful Widgets look close to HTC Sense. And they are skinable; I have seen a couple skins that are pretty much HTC Sense knockoffs lol.
Are there anymore?
'Weather Widgets' Weather and Flip Clock look a lot like the Sense clock. And then beautiful widgets fullscreen weather widget look the most like sense.

none support GV because GV, currently, does not allow the APIs to read from the service
What about the SMS Widget that flips like a Roladex, can that be ported to the Captivate?

I've searched and searched and haven't come up with a definite answer.
Can the HTC Widgets be used on Cyanogen, or any non-Hero ROM?
No.
Definite enough?
No, short answer, the hero widgets were built for rosie/sense whatever you want to call it, basically it's another home replacement app. Widgets are not compatible with standard launcher.
Like above the answer is no. Although there are a few widgets on the market that look like the htc wigdets.
Beautiful Widgets-Digital Clock Widget
Contact Bar- People bar
Pure Grid Calender- Calender Widget
Pure Messenger Widget- Email/Message Widget
Damn, all I really wanted was the peep twitter widget, but I'll live I guess haha
Use Twidgit Lite!
I've always wondered since a Home Replacement is basically a stand alone app, and widgets on the standard sdk can't be animated like the hero's in most cases.
Couldn't we just make a HR that runs applications as widgets type of thing.
Like if anyones run a pulse rom and used taskiller you'll see it's cards widgets or whatever it's called running and working with sense UI styles.
I don't see why we can't just run touchflo on cyanogen... most Hero ROMs are based on 1.5 right now, so... hmmm

Thanks! Found it! However, with the limitations it imposes (not able to scroll and have more than 4 contacts) I think I will pass on this one, for now. Dev states they are working on a solution for that, once found, it would be worth the purchase for me.
I have purchased many apps, especially the Pure apps (Calendar widget, Grid calendar widget and Messenger widget) that help make the phone look/perform nicely.
Keep up the great work Dev's!

Also known as touchflo. Download a taskmanger and see what the process is called...

Photo Album & Bookmarks widgets?
Might there be alternatives to these HTC widgets that I'd be able to use on my 1.6 based g1?

That is the HTC-Sense weather widget.. but could also be a modded version since it doesn't seem to be running on HTC-Sense (different launcher app).
Check out Beautiful Widgets in the Market, they used to have a similar widget.
Or check with the maker of the screenshot ;-)
so, is there a way to get the htc additions?
thx4help,

Weather and toggle widget donate has the same widget when you skin it

If you are not running a rom with Sense UI then the answer is no because it the apps and widgets require a certain framework that is only available on Sense UI devices.
Hi all, so. I'm using CM 5.0.7.1 but absolutely love the HTC Sense fullscreen calendar widget. Is there anything similar to that in the market or anything that I can download? The stock calendar widget is lacking, I think.
Thanks!
I think Pure Calendar is the best, when not on SenseUI
Pure Calendar is okay, it's not too expensive. But the Agenda Widget is more flexible, very configurable, well supported, and is free!

Checking out Agenda Widget. Thanks!
I just saw this lifehacker post that shows you how to turn of sense ui on a droid eris. Does anyone know if this works on an aria. And can you switch back and forth between sense and vanila. Thanks
Here is the link

i use launcherpro much better than sence ui and the other home too
I tried it and it didn't work for me, but maybe that is because I fail at following instructions. Or it could be that it just doesn't work with the Aria. The update on the article does state that it doesn't work on all HTC phones.
Anyway, I manage to clear the defaults but pressing the home key doesn't allow me to set the interface.
It doesn't work on the aria...
I think they completely removed the vanilla launcher fron the aria.
Like it was said before, you can just install another home app. My personl favorite is SlideScreen, which shows any new voicemail, missed calls, sms messages, calendar events, your google reader feed, twitter feed, stocks, and facebook messages (note, I am not part of the SlideScreen team, I've just found it to be really great). I've also tried out HelixLauncher, which I like more than LauncherPro, Sense, or the vanilla launcher.
You should know that the HTC widgets only work with the sense launcher, so if you're looking for a nice flip clock widget you should get Beautiful Widgets, which has a copy of most of HTC's nice widgets.
hi guys
i used to use launcherpro, but since the stock launcher on superaosp is amazing enough, i stopped using it
however the one thing i missed is the sense style calendar...
anyone got any alternatives?
i tried jorte and business calendar... both need to enter the program to edit the event which ... prefer it to launch into google calendar..
i also miss the simple switch between agenda and calendar....
anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks
Android agenda widget is a good one

Colorize widget is exactly what you are looking for. The free version is just like Sense. The paid version gives you some pretty cool theme support, but that is totally up to you.
Colorize Widget
Edit - Wait, I forgot that colorize only works on launchers with scroll widget support. Will not work on stock launcher.
Pure Calendar Grid is super awesome

I really like the widgets for an app called Business Calendar. It has all the functions of the original calendar but a bigger selection of widgets.
Colourize widget looks good but yeah no scrollable support.
What a shame
Prefer not to pay for a widget
I had use business calendar
I NP have niggling complaint that the transition from widget to calendar us not as smooth. I.e. you have to go into the calendar then add new event and so on. Whereas launcherpro one you gets straight to adding new event...
I'm just nit picking

no scroll
Stock GB launcher doesn't have widget scrolling. ADW or LPP allow for that. Unless of course the app includes arrows you can tap to scroll up or down
Pure Calendar (not Grid). Supports color schemes and scrolling.
