Pandora - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

Would it be possible to make a Pandora widget like the music lockscreen widget? Or make it where the stoke lockscreen widget also controls Pandora?

I'm pretty sure something like Widget Locker from the market should allow you to place the pandora widget on your lock screen. Not exactly what you're looking for, but it's about as close as you'll get I think.

This is not exactly what you want, but if Pandora is running while the Vivid is locked, you can pull down the notification bar (at least with ICS/Sense 3.6) and access the running Pandora app
Also, you might consider replacing one of the default apps in the bottom app bar with the Pandora app shortcut. Those four apps, whatever they are, will show on the lock screen.
Of course, I believe you want to see the full screen app like the music player shows when locked.

Yea I use notification bar and have the quick unlock set with Pandora lol but was hoping to have the fullscreen widget like the music one, I guess I'm just getting too lazy

widget locker.

didn't know where to put this. I've seen widget locker posted on other forums but not on the Fascinate. For those that want a cool lock screen, check this app out.
It allows a custom wallpaper for the lock screen, plus it can change your lock mechanism from Iphone to HTC sense and 6 others. Allows access to full notification bar,and you can add shortcuts and a slider for anything.
I'm attaching a pic of my phone. I don't know how to do a perfect screengrab like i see others do, so i'll take a pic.
For screen captures you want to download drocap from market

[Q] Weather on lockscreen

Anyone know of a way to get the weather on the lockscreen, without getting an extra app. I'm currently using the Epic Unlock and would like to add weather to it.
Weather bug lets u display temperature in status bar, if that helps.

Yeah, Beautiful Widgets let's me do the same. I would just like to mod my current one to include the weather from Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widgets. I think this would be a really cool mod.
I use beautiful widgets (which you say you have, so I'm not counting it as an "extra app") I set my background to the beautiful live weather wallpaper, so that should do what you want it to I think.
If you don't want the weather as you permanent wallpaper, most custom roms will let you choose a specific wallpaper for your lockscreen.
I really like having the weather as my background as it's one of the really quick and easy way I can disgrace all the iphone folks.

[APP REQ] Music Control Widget

So I'm looking for a simplistic music control app for my lock screen or an app which lets you customize the look of the (play, next, previous) buttons. Any suggestions and help will be gladly appreciated.
I'm in the middle of porting the lockscreen mod which enables the player on the lockscreen. Its in alpha stage now, but the three lock screens that work two have music controls. I can let you flash where its at so far.

Pure music Widget from the Market will give you a nice, simplistic set of music control widgets which can then be skinned. It's capable of being used with various Android music apps, so check the details of it in the Market to see if it'll work with your music app of choice.
It does not have the ability to natively put music controls on the lockscreen. Usually for that, you have to either use a music app that can do it (like PowerAMP or PlayerPro) or you can use another app called WidgetLocker that will enable you to put whatever widgets you want onto the replacement lockscreen that WidgetLocker creates on your phone.

I only need the lock screen mod not the whole cm7 mod. I'm happy with simple minimal gingerbread ui but I think that they really drop the ball without this non-music lock screen control feature. Having to unlock phone just to more forward a track or tap music widget just to move back a track is a real pain.

[Q] Weather widget - sometimes animates, sometimes not?

Hey, just wondering if anyone else has noticed that sometimes the little weather symbol in the weather clock widget (on top of blinkfeed, lock screen etc) animates, like a cloud with falling rain etc
Yet sometimes it doesn't - when does it decide to animate, and why? Just curious!

I noticed it once when I was waking up and thought it was cool but haven't seen it since. I'd also like to know what the trigger is for it to animate.
I don't have it yet but in all previous versions of sense was an option inside weather settings called "show weather animation" something like that....I don't know if there's any parameter that will allow you to use it continuesly but as far I remember animates in some updates and not always....

I think it only animates the transition between weather changes.

How about the weather on HTC Sense's trademark weather flip clock widget? Does it animate too in Sense 5?

No, there is no [full screen] animation any longer with the flip clock

It animates when it auto refreshes (depending on your refresh interval) or when you manually open the weather app itself.

Walkman App Lockscreen Widget

Hi guys,
as the update a week or so of the Walkman App camo out i rea in the update center that it can now be added a widget to the lockscreen(not only when you play music). So updated to 8.4.A.3.1 but I am still not able to find the widget for the lockscreen. Anyone alse having this problem?
Sent from my C5303 using XDA Free mobile app
The widget only appears when a music player is playing music. I am not able to add the widget directly (just tested it)
~~Regards
Thanks for the reply. My mistake that I misunderstood something. It was "Walkman widget to work on Android default home screen" not Lockscreen. Seems to be a feature that you could use the new widget for other launchers too.
Is there still a way to get widget of the walkman app to the lockscreen? Cause when I stop the music it disappears and on a microphone(not a headset) it is very annoying to reopen the app.
