[Q] Weather widget - sometimes animates, sometimes not? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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!

[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.

Thanks.

My choice is the 3D Digital Weather Clock from Factory Widgets, giving you time, date, weather, week number, battery and moon phase at a glance.
Tapping hours and minutes opens app of choice (in my case Alarm Clock Plus and A HIIT Interval Trainer).
Tap weather for 5-day forecast, left corner for system status and right corner for app settings.

What he ^^^^^ said :good:
HD Widgets running on your choice of launcher (Nova is my favourite). I don't understand why anybody would want to stay on the stock ROM which is fixed to a 4x4 grid - looks butt-ugly on a screen the size of ours.
HD Widgets plus the HDW: Icon Pack for Tablets - only costs a couple of pounds and looks sweet.
Yeah got that problem too google doesnt seem to have the answer

[Q] Why are icons so large? can they be changed?

Hi, i've added a widget called 'power controls' it is a default widget from stock android i believe.
I looks horrendous. The icon container is HUGE and the icons inside them are tiny. The screen on this device is massive, yet we can only have 4 rows of widgets, or is this possible to change?
thanks!
Also: The power widget from HTC looks nicer, however the screen brightness button has no AUTO brightness....?
Also2: There is no widget for HTC TV
Seems like there are alot of simple things missing
Hi
Greetings,
I thing their is no way as its stock widget
You will have to wait till some one mods it or creat something new similar
And yes HTC misses these few imp things
