If I updated to the leaked Froyo awhile ago, is the any good reason to go to the official build?
There's the Genie Widget that comes stock. It's a pretty cool looking clock... Oh, and for the love of god I could never get it to install w/ the leaked Froyo.

No, not really, Genie from what I've seen is like a clock interface. Like Sense UI, Fancy or Beautiful Widgets. I could be mistaken though of course.
All I know is that it is better.
Plus, as a tweaker/themer, you can mod the genie widget how you want color wise, which is why I have interest in it to begin with. However SiMi Clock widget is also really legit, I'm rocking it right now with my personal tron theme.

it is included in mcr2.9 as it is part of htc sense. probably won't work in other roms.
Oh, I thought, that is the Widget of the first HTC ROM with flipping times.
Sorry.
I still cant figure out how to get it to work on my phone.. I just said forget it

It won't work without Rosie installed (and running). It's an HTC widget, not a regular Android widget... it only hooks into SenseUI.
Also, if your question is why doesn't it actually flip, that's a limitation of the US version I know for sure... the animation was taken out by HTC because of the drain on system resources. The animation may or may not be functioning in the widget released in Europe.
I did pull this from the original rom so it should flip but when i posted it i thought id like to give it a try and i couldnt get it work either so I gues htc must have changed something else in the ROM that it relies on maybe... Im far from being an expert though so don't know if it should be able to work or not
Sorry
Not working on my Samsung Epic 4G. Is there a similar widget that works WITH the flip clock animation intact for non-HTC phones?

Lacks the animation, but it's the closest you will get. Remember that it's removed due to a C&D, so you can't get it or post it on xda.
I have my own black version of the HTC flipclock that i rebuilt/themed and the animation flips/works perfectly, i've uploaded it for you (install through recovery as update.zip and make sure it does not go on sdcard, has to be on phone storage)!
It would be great if a Dev could make this work with non-sense roms
Enjoy.
wont install on my optimus one

the thing is the flip clock needs the sense framework.....if you want something similar to it...download applanet and install fancy widgets pro and theme the home widget i paid for the app but if u need it for testing i suggest this. the clock its identical to the sense ui analog flip clock
i wanna a htc flip clock for cm7
OUPS I didn't see the 2nd page....

Has this been done? the only reason I use the hero roms is for the awesome music app. I also love the lockscreen.

No...The frameworks are differnt so you cant..The eclair hero lockscreen is better then the 1.5 hero's.Also dont even bother trying to install the lockscreen's apk since it wont work.You can wait for AOSP 2.0 or stick with what you have now.Or! upgrade to a new HTC phone like Legend/Bravo/Passion/Nexus well you get the point.

Yeah, I saw the nexus on engadget and I plan on getting it. but that is in the future and this is now.
Do you know of any music apps as good as the htc one?
I'm getting my Droid this week, and was planning on getting Beautiful Widgets once I did. Unfortunately, HTC's C&D made LevelUp pull the app tonight. I was wondering if there was any way someone could make a backup of the app and post it for me to download and transfer it to my SD Card once I get it.
I'm not sure if this is allowed, but since the app is now pulled from the market and not available for purchased, I assumed it is.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help me out.
No wares aren't allowed on xda
I'm kinda impressed you're gonna get an Android phone and already know what widgets you want haha. Less it's not your first Android phone.
if you downloading beautiful widget for its htc style clock/weather, you can buy the alternative: weather widget (donate) which also comes with the clock and came out before beautiful widget and is still being updated (for now unless they get hit with a C&D too). for all the toggles widgets you can get those free here on xda skinned by manup. do a search.
Hope weather widget doesnt get hit up...but if they do I hope they only have to pull the default skin for the clock and weather and nothing else
I just flashed a new ROM and then read about the C&D on his Twitter... Gonna have to scour my laptop to try and find a backup now D:

Nope. It's my first. I'm sitting here with an unlocked iPhone 2G on T-Mobile, but I become eligible for an upgrade tomorrow. Waiting for news on the Nexus One, which appears to be headed to T-Mobile.

Any flip clock widget? That was the main reason I was interested in Beautiful Widgets; I wanted the clock to actually flip (I was under the impression it did).
Beautiful Widgets worked WAAAAAAAAAY Better than Weather Widget Donate, and got updated more.
Sad that they were bullied by C & D. If thats the case they should change the look and feel a little and re-up on the market. Lets see the designer of the original physical flip clock send a C & D to HTC for infringing on his design.

if you are interested in a flip clock that actually flips, check out this home replacement app (still beta):

I have the beautiful widget but my problem is that after I got the Cyanogen's 4.2.10.1 my phone was messed up and I had to do a fresh install and go to 4.2.9.1 I have a back up but the problem I am running into is that the forecast animations are not getting downloaded. I know those are free...does anyone have any clue how to get those????
So I tried to search for this problem and don't believe I could find anything. This is probably a simple question for someone so here it goes.
I recently installed the Launcher2 Patch from Jcase. It's fantastic but I would like to be able to use the HTC widgets that I could with the SenseUI. Is this possible or no?
If not is there anywhere I can get a comparable full screen Calendar for this?
Thanks in advance.
HTC widgets don't work without the SenseUI.
Aloysius 2.0 PORT V7 looks alot like Launcher2, it even has live wallpapers, and still has HTC widgets. It's a little snappier than L2, IMO.
I second that. Aloysius is my dream rom so far. Live wallpapers, nexus lock screen, and htc widgets.
Only thing I don't like about it is, seeing as it's a sprint rom, some verizon only apps don't work (only one I care about is skype though)

Due to several bugs Spencer actually pulled v7/8 and is currently getting the boot image sorted to square away some issues. Currently my daily rom.
Does Port 6 still support the HTC widgets over Launcher2? Please correct me if I'm stupid.
V9 is up now and pretty solid. It doesn't have LWP, though.
Just to be clear, it'n not running Launcher2, but he's modded the sense launcher to look like it. That way, you can still use HTC widgets.
There is a V9 with LWP now

well...I ran V9, 10 and now on 11...but I want that menu effect where the icons drop into the screen..instead of them sliding up.. thats why I love launcher 2....He does have Launcher 2 on 10..but you can't use HTC icons on there..
Exactly. Thanks for clarifying!

I inverted the colors on fancy widget to make it more friendly for black bar themes (chromatic, superbad, speedteam, etc)
available MOD EDIT** LINK REMOVED, fancy widget cannot be linked on xda because of the issue with HTC
Screens below
Good job it looks nice...
Too bad I already downloaded Beautiful widgets.
So I installed this on my evo and it was just the stock fancy widget any reason why ?

Because not all Android phones have the Sense interface and therefore the Sense widgets.

i know that? i was an early adopter of the g1 and the evo so i am very familiar with how android and its skinned variances work. however i like the look of his inverted fancy widget and wanted to use that but when i install his apk it installs as the regular fancy widget and not the inverted

I see. I misinterpreted your question.
This widget is not inverted....plain and simple. Nice try though.
On my Dream, CM5.0.8 this file gives me a widget with white text on a black background. I haven't used 'Fancy widget' before.
Wait no mames! What happened with HTC broseph?
