so there is no different from 4.1.2 cause widgets are useless

Sony don't make the lock screen widgets. You have to find apps that support the 4.2.2 lock screen.

That is true..but the downside is that we can put only one widget in one page..so if I want a small flashlight widget,it takes up one whole page to the left,and if I need any toggles..another page on the left..really annoying..isn't there any way u could put many widgets in just one page at the lockscreen?

I believe that you can only put one widget per screen on Nexus devices, so no surprise that it works the same here. Maybe try something like WidgetLocker.

[REQ] XZ Weather Widget auto-update location

The stock weather widget on XZ doesnt auto-update location, and the location is stuck on the time it was first set up.
Anyway to make it auto-update your location?
I wish this was built in But i've not seen this added by anyone, nor another widget that looks quite as nice as the stock widget
Would be nice if it worked on other launchers.
I had an update to mine, it now includes this. Try your update center app, it might find it

Full weather animations

Is this no longer an option with sense 5?
And the title should have said full screen weather animations.

No, this has been removed from what I understand.
Tap the Weather icon, and you will be taken to a full screen animation. But, full screen animation over your home screen, that is gone.

Ya those r the only two I liked. Rain was ok. But the frosted edges and lightning were the ones that I liked the most. Especially the lightning. The frost only came around once a year here in Texas if it lucky.

The only way is to install Beautiful Widgets and download the features package and on settings unlock animations.

That's true, but the sense version felt better. The BW version required you to tap the screen to get it to stop before you could use the phone, while sense would just make it disappear instantly without having to make that initial "exiting" tap

Yeah I know... I don't like beautiful widgets any more... I am hooked with Uccw instead.

There is a way to get the weather animations back but you have to change your wallpaper. Check in Live wallpapers and use the "Weather" one. It's pretty nice actually because it changes for day, night, rain, cloudy, etc. and the animation stops after a few seconds which I assume saves on battery drain. But you are locked into that wallpaper. Hope that helps.
