I emailed the devs of fancy widget with my request for a bookmark widget. They said with enough request the would develop one. This is the only thing I'm missing from sense. So please go to the market and flood their email.

Launcher Pro Plus has a Sense like widget, I highly recommend Launcher Pro if you aren't using it already.
I know but I prefer adw cuz its more customizable. I also bounce back between cm7 and miui. Miui with the bookmark widget would be sweet.

Why can't the HTC widgets (calendar) be used with ADW? I'm not a huge fan of sense but I am a huge fan of the HTC calendar widget.
Does anyone know why the HTC calendar widget cant be used with ADW or is it possible to get the apk? I like the ADW launcher the most but would like to have the HTC widget does any one know if this is possible.
HTC widgets are tied to Sense, can't be done. Get LauncherPro he has sense-like widgets

Adw doesn't support it...and HTC doesn't want its widgets used with anything other than Sense....I would suggest using Launcher Pro Plus....they have widgets just like the Sense ones.....

Thanks for the info.
There is an app called smooth Calender in the market. It is pretty much identical to the HTC calendar. Widget. And it is customizable.

I'm looking to do the same thing. I would like to see if the windget apk's can be pulled with adb from the stock ROM. Is this a possible way toi get HTC widgets?

Everything "Sense" is tied into the sense framework and isn't usable in a rom that is not sense based. Widgets, apps, etc.
I like the jorte calendar over the sense one. Might give it a view.

Launcher Pro Plus has Friends widget,Facebook widget, messaging! Widgets and many more. That's what I'm using right now!

The problem with LauncherPro is that it cannot use the TouchWiz Widgets. LauncherPro doesn't have enough Widgets itself to be useful to me (not saying it's useless to anyone else).
Plus the paid version can't be put in the market and probably wouldn't have carrier billing available for it.
But like I said, the Samsung Widget provides the same function of those others.
Where do I get the samsung eidgets from

THe one thing that gets me about AOSP is the fact that we can't have a calender widget like sense does. I've used launcher pro which has a very nice calender widget, but it seems not to run very well. Somone please develop a calender widget like the sense or launcher pro one (agenda view reeally).
There are some out there, but don't look nice
Colorize widget has a nice agenda calendar. It's free in the market.

Pure calendar widget.
Try out Jorte. Free on the market. So many features and customizations, you won't be dissappointed.
I use smooth calendar, on android market.
Its free, & the same as sense calendar widget....( little better if you ask me, you can customize the view even more).
and ITS ON CM7
Now I have wimax and my sense calendar widget, NO REASON TO GO BACK TO SENSE NOW>
What about a good scrolling agenda widget. Still hunting.

I use Android Agenda Widget Plus (paid version). Also has a free version. It is scrollable and is very customizable. Plus, I use it with TouchDown for Exchange

Thanks evyerone for the great responses - new apps I've never heard of. they are very promising - but I realized finally why you can't have one like the sense one or the launcher one - the launcher has to support "scrollable" widgets. Any how - as a result - i am using MIUI so there launcher isn't just yet scrollable - so it won't matter.
Thanks guys!!!

launcherpro plus
circle battery widget
minimalistic text widgets
launcherpro icons app
desktop visualizer
those are my mainstays for visual customizations. I also use the Minimal Magic theme with the theme chooser built into the CM7 roms.
I ended up using Adw ex, pure calendar, pure grid calendar, battstat pro, pure music player, fancy Widgets pro, SMS unread count, blue theme for cm7, and senses theme for cm7 and I'm pretty happy with it. I had beautiful Widgets before fancy Widgets but it seemed to have raped my battery so I switched

I gave it a trial run.. its kind of a memory hog and it also runs a little choppy but its not completely bad. Not sure how it will run if you're not overclocked.. it does look pretty good though. I ended up going back to Adw ex though

Good info, thanks.
Pretty much I'm asking. Is there a launcher that is like adw and launcher pro but is compatible with sense widgets.
I've been looking but not finding.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
There isn't one. Sense, including the widgets, is proprietary to HTC and they are very quick to sue when it comes to their property. There are some skins available that make use of the google apps, calendar and music, that work well with LauncherPro. I've used Pure Music Widget by francois Deslanders and it has a nice transparent 4x4 widget.
Sad face...
Hmm I see the issue. No one would wanna do that work for free. Thx for quick response.

I've seen and tried some of the things you pointed out. But I guess I'm really just trying to make use of my sense rom. I'm using launcher pro and I love it but not being able to you the weather widget has always bugged me.

Beautiful Widgets has almost the exact same weather/clock widget as HTC, plus hundred of others to choose from. Only problem I ever had with it is it gets my location wrong sometimes.
Thx I've looked into beautiful widgets but I'm talking about the full screen weather widget the one with the forcast.
The reason I was asking was mainly because of the resizing of widgets in these launchers.

Yeah it only has a 4x1 weather widget which kind of sucks. Launcher Pro does allow resizing but it just keeps the same 4x1 widget and enlarges it to about 4x2 and it doesn't look good.
Cool so I just got done trying out the go weather app. Its not bad but I only really like it because of the live wallpaper.
But for that same reason It's not what I'm looking for. I do appreciate the idea. Oh well still looking.
I guess what I'm really looking for is that sense 4x4 forcast widget on one of my launcher pro screens. (I know not possible lol)

Hopefully they release their Sense SDK soon like they said they would.
Palmary Weather Pro is very close. I think it's a buck or 2 in the market. I love it.
