What's Today Widget v1.3

The widget, which can be found on the market, is called "What's Today Calendar Widget" and "What's Today Cal Widget Donate." Like the name implies, it tells about today. The day of the week is displayed, along with the calendar date.
Never forget the day of the week or the day of the month again! And best of all, it has an Eclair theme to it to match Google's "News and Weather" widget.
If you like the way it looks (shown in attached screenshots), please check it out in the market and considering purchasing "What's Today Widget" from the market. Thanks!!
Changelog:
1.0
– Released
1.1
– 2×1 Widget Added
1.3
- Re-coded the widget from the ground up
- Press widget to open calendar agenda
- Fixed a bug with updating the correct date (still buggy, it’s being worked on)
- Updated widget images to better match Google’s “News and Weather” widgets

You're seriously charging money for this..? It takes 1 line of code and a layout xml to make this in Android.
I'm not trying to be a **** or put you off learning the sdk, but maybe you should come up with some more creative ideas before trying to charge people for them.. After all, you can just pull down the notification bar to see the date.

Point noted. To be honest, I wasn't sure how things like this are usually received.
I've made it free on the market now. Thanks for your feedback.

I still think you should make a donate version...maybe just $0.25. I tried to do exactly what goldenarmZ said and ran out of time and patience, so there may be a market out there for this.

Sadly the market does not let me charge less than 99 cents, otherwise I would.
I have uploaded a Donate version of the Widget for 99 cents. Thanks for the suggestion.

Tried it for a bit, but it seems to have the formatting of the Nexus News widget which is a different size and shape than the Power Control widget. Maybe I'm just picky, but having two nearly similar widgets on the screen that aren't exactly the same size looks a bit off...

Wow I love the simplicity of it. I would def. donate

Nice work OP.

Keep it installed to see what the dev will do with updates, but I keep finding it running a process, even though I don't have any widgets on the screen? Going to have to uninstall for this reason...

There will be an update soon that will attempt to address the problem with the process running, but I'm not sure exactly why this is.

Android 3.0 Honeycomb version 2 [preview]

A partner and i have been working on a simple clock widget themed off the one in android 3.0.....there is a lite version for free and a paid version for $0.99 that allows you to choose from 16 different colors...please support us and download it
I am hoping that we update soon. I know that currently this app has rather poor ratings and is being trumped by a similar one like it, due to the other one being more functional. However, the new update will include completely redesigned graphics, which I must note will be an exact replica of what is currently on Honeycomb (i.e all, not some, of the rings will rotate, and all will rotate with the correct increment of time corresponding)...the only issue right now is getting the clock to open the alarm app, I have the correct code if only i knew how to implement it correctly, and I dont really want to ask my partner due to the fact that usually he is busy.
Anyway, check out the attached pics of the preview for version 2 at the bottom....just a note, the graphics do look as bad as the pictures, obviously the quality on the pics ahas been compressed in the attatchements
https://market.android.com/details?id=honeycomb.clocks.lite&feature=search_result
https://market.android.com/details?id=honeycomb.clocks&feature=search_result
-just a side note, for those that love tron, you will love out widget
Update Pending

Thanks for the info. Looks great.

Hey I just bought the pro version
Question - where can I find the slanted dockbar you show in the demo pics?
Cheers.

He just placed a few app shortcuts to the homescreen and lined them up like that.

Clever; I must have put in every imaginable search term for slanted dockbar - thanks for the feedback - I'll have to play with it later..

Is there anything else you guys would like to see in the app?...i want to do an update with transparent backgrounds, but my partner and i are hesitant to, as it would be an overload of widgets, it would just be a long list of Honeycomb Clock, Honeycomb Clock transparent (no black) and so on
It would help alot to do an update if someone would please tell us how to package them together like the HTC clocks or the beautiful widgets
also can somebody please tell us how to get this to work with other alarm clock apps when you click on it, besides the stock android alarm clock app

thank u very much

can u please post the wallpaper u used in the demo pics?

[Android 2.1+] WMD-Weather & Clock

Available in Google Market...
End December 2010 I released WMD-Weather Lite in the Android Market. This widget is based on the WMD-Weather widget I created earlier for the Windows Mobile UI Androkkid. Since then, I've been working on the full version of this weather app & widget, hoping to release it soon as a paid version. This one will extend the lite version, and combine ideas from two other Androkkid widgets I created: WMD-Clock and WMD-WorldClock.
The application features a weather application, showing the current conditions (weather icon, temp, short text, status icons), a 6-day forecast and details when a weather icon is clicked (see images below), including a radar image. Where available (US), the UV index and pollen information/air quality are available as well for today's details.
Multiple locations are supported, as well as 'My location' which is modified when you move, and just about any location on the planet can be added. By swiping left or right, the next location's info is displayed. When the current location is known (via GPS or network), it will be proposed when adding a location.
The application can be set to update automatically.
Please see my site to get the latest information on features (this post is not updated frequently).
Lanuages supported: English, Dutch, German, French, Norwegian, Hungarian
Currently, the application comes with 3 widgets:
Simple weather widget (2x1)
- shows the location,
- the current weather icon
- current temperature and real feel temperature
- next day forecast icon, min/max temperature
- optional background (choice of backgrounds)
- time last updated
- clicking on the widget will launch the app with the widget's location
Weather/Clock widget (4x1)
- the simple weather widget, combined with
- a clock, optionally showing the location's local time
- optionally, the next alarm
- optionally, the current date
- optional backgrounds (choice of backgrounds)
- choice of 5 clock digit styles
- optionally display the hour leading 0 (e.g. 01:00 instead of 1:00)
- optionally select an application to launch when the clock's digits are clicked
Advanced Weather/Clock widget (4x2)
- the Weather/Clock widget, combined with
- an additional row with forecasts for the main widget location and/or current weather info for other locations (including the location's time)
By using the location's time, the clock widget can be used to create a weather/world clock by adding multiple locations with their time to your Android home app (see the images below for an example).
Currently in development for the next version:
- downloadable digit styles and backgrounds
- reworked internals
- more languages: Spanish & Portuguese
Wish list:
- widgets functioning on all devices
- additional weather widget(s)
- screen to screen animation
- slide from day to day in the details screen
All resolutions should be supported, allthough for 320x200 devices, scrolling is required to see all information. And, depending on the screen's density and the launcher used, the widgets may not display correctly. Try out the lite version to verify everything is displayed correctly.
PS: the application is tested on small screen/low dpi resolutions via the emulator, for which the results are correct. However, on the HTC Wildfire the widgets are not rendered fully...
WMD-Weather contains more information, screenshots, version info and the barcode to install the application. The link and barcode for WMD-Weather Lite can be found there as well.
Any feedback - good or bad, bugs, ... - is appreciated!

Thanks Excepter!
Please let me know if you notice any incorrect behavior (clock stops updating, service no longer running, ...).
I'm also looking for feedback on HTC Sense based devices. The widget size may be incorrect on HTC Sense, but I'm unable to test this (on ADWLauncher, my favorite, it looks good on all resolutions).
If you have other ideas to improve the application's functionalilty, I'll be happy to hear this as well...

Good work! I installed this on a htc hero running aosp 2.2 (no sense). I'll report back in a few days if I have any issues/ideas.
Edit: I just got an "error configuring widget" after I changed some of the preferences. Hmph I should have left it alone. Anyway I have to go to sleep, I'll play with it more tomorrow. I wish I had the skills to put together something like this; time is so hard to come by anymore...

Got it tested today on a HTC Desire with Sense (thanks Wim). No issues there.
However, the widgets on the HTC Wildfire (thanks Kurt) don't show all info and the background doesn't cover the entire widget. Something to work on...

Looking good, Ima try it later.

These look really clean!

i can only update weather in wifi mode, not in 3g. why ? any solutions ?

Sorry for my somewhat late response.
I've had no issues with connectivity. However, in the lite version's comments there are 2 comments (out of 72) regarding update issues.
The app verifies if there's an internet connection available before launching an update. I've been able to test wifi, edge, hdspa, but not 3G myself.
Hopefully other users can share their experience here, to find out if it's 3G or device related. I'll do some research on this as well.

Nice work! Using this on my HTC Hero, no issues whatsoever.

edge, hdspa, don't work too

Did you ever find a fix for this? I have the same issue with one of my widgets...

Nope... not yet. Small screen devices will be one of the things I'll be focussing on next, cause it's really bugging me. I've already put in quite some time and tried some alternative layouts, but without success. If anyone else has a solution, please let me know.
It's hard to emulate. One thing I noticed lately is, that my widgets actually overlap in the small screen emulator. Which is a first (small) step ahead...

So I ended up buying a htc wildfire to do development work on for small screens.
The htc doesn't handle the small screen in the same way that others (such as the xperia x10 and the samsung galaxy 550) do. And what I found was that whilst the bounding box on my widget looked fone on the xperia and 550, it was stopping short on the wildfire.
Within my layout I had a android:layout_marginBottom="15dip" for the bounding box. Duplicating the layout and putting it in layout-small and removing the marginBottom fixed the problem for the widget on the wildfire, but also left a large space on the other small screens. As I have fewer wildfire users than x10 users this wasn't an option. Yesterday I tested a dirty fix; in the settings/preferences menu I have added in a widget layout option with default and small screen (wildfire) options.
When the user selects the wildfire option the widget will load with a layout that doesn't use marginBottom for the bounding box. And this seems to work. Would be good if I could detect what device the user was using so that this could be done automatically.

Thanks. It seems to be the same issue I'm having with the Wildfire. The emulator did not show the issue, but it does partly overlap 2 (of my) widgets when putting one above the other. I was planning on experimenting with relative layouts. Did you try something like that?

Kite UI - Coherent User interface *Theme*

Kite UI Project (Theme elements for Android devices)
*Update on receiving a full version will be posted soon*
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=russian
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=russian
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=russian
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=russian
In front of you is reincarnation of popular user interface Kite UI.
Instruction on complete applying of elements:
1. You need launcher which replacement of standard icons is possible in. The theme was tested on Lightning Launcher,
which has necessary features: 1) possessing a large quantity of settings, it remains to be the fastest of offered on the Market. 2) Movement on the screen
can be carried out to the left, to the right, down, up and on a diagonal, in difference from other launchers, who offer transition between home
screens only by moving to the left and right.
After all that there is a question, what is Kite UI? How the movement on the screen should be carried out? If you saw a topic on xda-developers, you already
are familiar with structure. If not, I will tell you, it should be carried out comprehensively. Probably, with a little differences, than
in Lightning Launcher, but nevertheless, very approximately. Still App Drawer is built standardly in it.
Certainly, to achieve the necessary result in settings, you should spend a little time in settings of a launcher. From the most important points of
settings, I will note, in the line :Number of columns" it is necessary to put value 3, and in "Line height" - 75, if your screen has not got more or less than 3.5 inches.
Otherwise you should experiment with settings.
!!!. You can use any launcher for a theme, I only give advice. If you're not familiar with any of the launchers you can
just install a BetterCut app from the market.
2. You need to download the UltimateCustomClockWidget (UCCW) app to apply and issue the clock widget on the main homescreen.
3. Super Status Bar. Even with the trial version of this program, you will approach status bar of the phone to the status of a Kite bar as much as possible.
And everything is at a minimum of spent time. You don't need additional application of themes, which will be unlocked in the paid version. Standard design
is already approached. !!!. Similar programs, such as, for example, Status Bar +-Custom Status Bar are possible. But design of an appropriate look
I can not guarantee.
4. Music player. Not compulsory procedure. I looked long for it. I use TTPod with an orange standard skin, thanks to its fast speed of the circulation, the built-in 12-band equalizer, strengthening of basses, shake function imitation, and madly beautiful design.
5. Widget Locker. I included the backup settings of the application. Well, and Kite Locker certainly. So, I think it would not be a hard work to adjust it for long since everything here is provided by me.
It is necessary only to put icons and widgets there. As a clock for lockscreen for example I use UCCW too.
THE PAID ARCHIVE CONSISTS OF:
1. 40 Kite UI style homescreen and 49 app menu icons.
2. A Kite UI clock widget, with author's backup settings along with 50 day and 49 night weather skins.
3. Nearly 80 HD, FHD and UHD landscape and 16 abstraction wallpapers. The Kite design looks perfect with every of it.
4. Exclusive fonts to set up date, etc... including original Kite UI font ("kite" folder).
5. The well-known Kite UI LockScreen on the basis of Widget Locker. Simplicity and grace.
6. The well-known Kite UI wallpaper with the clouds, recreated most approximately to the original taking into account more than 80 layers of a photoshop. The original eclusive KITE UI wallpaper is also included.
7. Many variants of demo icons and weather skins, so you could see all the progress been maken.
The FREE v.0.7 of the theme consists of:
1. 10 Kite UI style homescreen and 50 app. menu icons.
2. A Kite UI clock widget, with author's backup settings along with 6 main day and 6 main night weather skins.
3. 33 HD landscape wallpapers. The Kite design looks perfect with every of it.
4. Original Kite UI font ("kite" folder).
5. The well-known Kite UI LockScreen on the basis of Widget Locker. Simplicity and grace.
6. The well-known Kite UI wallpaper with the clouds, recreated most approximately to the original taking into account more than 80 layers of a photoshop. The original eclusive KITE UI wallpaper is also included.

I need some action in the topic, so I pay your attention on a contest. First 10 people who post messages in this topic will get this theme for just a 1$. Contest ends on 15th of June.

As good as this looks, I think you should have a look at the rules on xda regarding paid apps. It's one thing to have a donation button, quite another to try and sell your theme here.

+1 on the previous post. Great idea but, in my opinion, its bad way to advertise the theme. Good luck though. I'd love to see the free version as per XDA rules.

Ok. I really appreciate some activity in the topic, as long as it good review or a critics.
1. As for XDA rules, I've read it. I didn't lie to anybody, so you get a full alpha of this work, which is not restricted by time limits or smth. to review it and make a choice of appreciate or not appreciate an author's work. Instead of donate version I just made a note of transfering a payment. I've done the analog of XDA conditions, not crossing it.
2. I started this work in early 2010. Since then there were a lot of re-doings and some new things, as programms needed for this are also newer now, so there was a huge progress to see, what you see now.
3. All the updates of work will be released free in this topic, so you support a lot of spent time. I tried not to make a monopoly of this work, so there is a free link also.
As the contest goes on, you can receive the full version for transferring a $1. Posted to cornelha, ncdub
:good:

I'm giving it a shot.
Initial feedback not even installing yet.....
1. I have to figure out how to install. I'm a relatively smart fellow, but I'm having to read the install instructions more than once to figure out what to do. From my experience most people don't spend a lot of time working to get a theme installing. Using themechooser or something similar and picking a theme that has been installed by an apk is the preferred method
I have purchased the full UCCW and have messed with my own designs so I'm not expecting any issues.
2. Download locations are the easiest or user friendly. It was easy for me, I have a multi-host download program I pay for and I use Internet Download Manger so it's a two click deal for me.
3. Good deal adding install instructions in rar file. That helps.
I've got it downloaded. I'm going to play with it on my stockish 4.3 ROM on my ATT Note 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2704375

dicksteele, yeah, the main problem of the work that it is not in one easy apk.
Though I am not smart in coding, so everything is just a designer's work. I just was so excited by Kite interface, and dissappointed it wasn't released to a public, so I wanted to anyhow recreate it. How I could.
WORK If you could do some help with coding this thing, you can P.M. me to my e-mail address (entered higher) or to my XDA profile. That help would be appreciated.
Also, you can have the full theme according to contest rules.

Waiting for other posts...

feel free to P.M. an author.

I'm closing this thread since it doesn't follow the paid themes guidelines, and is using pay-per-click links.
To summarize:
You can advertise your paid themes if and only if the free version is equivalent to it.
Download links must not be a mean for you to get money.
For more details, refer to the paid themes policy and the forum rules (especially rule #13).
