Simple clock widget?

I can't seem to find three default android clock widget and the market us flooded with crap. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Unfortunately Samsung didn't include any stock Android clock widgets. They did include the Nexus One live wallpaper though, so go figure. I recommend throwing down for Beautiful Widgets, it's like $1.90 and can do amazing things.

"Weather and toggle widget" $1.99.
I've always liked the "Sense" flip clock and this is satisfies my taste.

I use one that's just called Digital Clock Widget by Maize. Just a really simple digital time with the day under it. Can be a 1x2 or a 1x4 widget. Not TOO much customization, but it definitely does the job well.

What's wrong with the Samsung Clock Widget that comes with the phone?

I am using Retro Clock.

I really like this app too, plus it has many downloadable skins you can get for the clock and weather.

Fancy Widget is nice and free (but i can't post a link since i'm a newbie)

lol, no one knows how to get the default clock widget. I'm surprised. To me that was one of the trademarks of android. That big clock widget on the G1

And has anyone figured out how to remove the clock from the status bar on the top? I did a search, but nothing turned up. . .

predator clock widget 1x4 setting is awesome .u can change colors to match ur wallpapers very cool ul love it and its free in the market

It is is not a simple clock widget, but Fancy Widget Pro is da bomb!

I use "animated analog clock" by DNS project. It has seconds hand! 99% of clocks have no seconds! Is it really that hard to makes clock shows seconds??

I like Simi Clock Widget. Clean appearance, can launch multiple apps by tapping, and its free.

Fancy Widget Pro is the best out there for clock and weather. Has so many skins and new ones every day!

I've been looking for a Android digital clock with "seconds" since I left WM Not sure why we don't have any....

Appointments on lock screen?

Just noticed something I miss from my old phone. I only just noticed it because I haven't had any appointments until now. Is there a way to show your nest appointment prominently, such as on a homescreen or on the lock screen? I notice the lock screen shows calls/voicemail/sms, but not appointments.

also want.

Still nothing as far as a lock screen, but after some googleing, I found that there are a few apps on the market that let you display this info on the homescreen as a widget. just search for the word "agenda" and a bunch will pop up. Right now I am using Agenda Widget because I can customize it to blend in with my clock. The other ones were functional, but kinda ugly.

for your home screen, use Smooth Calendar, so far the best free widget I tried yet!
Can show up to 3 appointments as far out as you want. Looks clean and simple also.

Try Executive Assistant. It is a little flaky yet (I am using the free version), it does the trick for the meetings and even has a little slide unlock deal instead of the standard android lock screen.

widget locker + pure calendar or launcherpro plus calendar

Another vote for Pure Calendar, the Pure widgets are skinnable so they can have the look you want, and Messenger, Calendar, and Weather Forecast they provide most of what I want on my homescreen.

SenseUI style clock?

I love the SenseUI clock widget....is there something just like it?? Preferrably one that shows the date too

Have a look at "Beautiful Widgets". They have a theme-able clock which looks similar.

Fancy Widget

Fancy widget

Weather widget donate version looks good and had a whole bunch of skins...
My phone's been flashed more than Girls Gone Wild...

I've got both fancy widget and Beautiful widgets. Both can be set to look like sense however I prefer beautiful widgets because it has more skins and programmable options such as you can choose what apps to open when tapping the weather, clock and date. I have mine set to open my weather bug pro, alarm and calendar similar to the sense UI

Is there any way, any where to get the Fancy Widget anymore? I'm guessing its been taken down...

IMHO Fancy widget is as close as you can be to Sense. BW or WW are off as far as I like. BW is too close to edges and WW is a bit too low within widget.

Thank you for listing out Fancy Widget. It was in my Android Market - free.

[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.

[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.
