[Q] Adding Widgets.. - Fascinate Themes and Apps

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.

Yes that is installed, I was just wondering about the widget you can put on one of the home screens.

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.

Which ROM does "Beautiful Widgets" Work Best With?

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.

HTC Clock?

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.

Find the v1.30 Fancy Widget online...that's all I'll say, haha...

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.

Do you have the link to that yahoo mail widget you are talking about because I can't seem to find it in the market? Unless you are referring to the shortcut icon which is not a widget.
To remove widget just do a long press on the widget you want to remove then drag it to the trash bin.

Clock widget?

Anybody know of a decent clock widge. I don't like the stock one. I am looking for something similar to the sense clock/weather widget on HTC devices.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
I would suggest using Beautiful Widgets, available in the Market. I have been trying out some of their clock themes, they all look good in Honeycomb.
Yup, Beautiful Widgets is the way to go. It's very customizable. Here's how I have it setup (top middle)

Transparent apps for G Tablet?

I have looked around and tried the available transparent apps for other Android devices and so far the only one I have found that works on the G Tablet is the Pandora app. I really would like to find some more. If anyone has the apk's please post. Thank you in advance!!
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
here is a version of the news/weather aka genie widget that is transparent..
you have to manually copy to the system/app with root explorer. and reboot.
Thanks Igkagn! I appreciate it! I have a transparent version of the XDA app on my X that I love but it wont work on the g tablet. I would love to find one that worked. Thanks again.
Come on guys, quit holding out! Thanks!

i'm new here, pardon the question, but what is a transparent app?
It's an app that is transparent. You can see your wallpaper instead of a solid background. I have an XDA app on my Droid X that is transparent except for the writing and a market that is transparent as well but they wont run on my g tablet so I was hoping more people might have the apps that would work on the g tablet. As you can see, not so much. Hmmmm
