Sense UI messages widget

Does anyone else only have one sms widget style available?
I really liked the idea of having one looking like the calendar, news, or mail widget (dark see-throug background), but figured that, for some reason, HTC left it out.
But then, I saw this: (around the 1:43 mark)
Now, this is an EVO video, so maybe it's yet to be released for the Legend, or only available on higher-resolution devices... Anyone with any info?

Digital Clock Stock Widget

Anyone having a problem with the digital clock stock widget? My widget size is 3x1 and when installed, cuts off the day/date text. Is there a 4x1 size option? Seems like something has happened to my widget. I am latest version, stock, rooted. Anyone else having similar problem? It's very aggravating.

Mine did this last Sunday and has been the same ever since. I have rooted but am still running latest stock firmware

But I believe it's always been like that.
The Day text is cut off and shifted down a line so it shows:
Wednes
day
Rather than:
Wednesday
I don't use a clock on my screens though as there is one in the lower right corner.
EDIT
Ah looking back on some earlier Tab images used as promo's it is clear it should be the Day and Date in 1 line... Not sure what could be causing this. *scratches head*

I solved the problem by going into settings/applications/digital clock and uninstalling the updates. Seems like the latest update screwed my digital clock up. Once I did that, it works like it should and doesn't cut off anything...day/date on first text line, and city on second text line. And, the size of the widget is now 5x2. I knew something wasn't right with the size. That's why it was cutting off the day/date text.
woo hoo.

Mine did that when I tried to set the city name to nothing (blank).
Setting a name fixed it.
I see now that that doesn't work. Sorry for the misinformation.

Can't find any updates to remove to fix widget size.
Re jyams's fix, I've the same problem but can't find any way to uninstall any clock updates.
Is this because mine's not rooted?
The fact that the day is show followed by a comma tells me that the widget size is the problem.

More confused than ever
Just noticed that when the tablet comes out of standby, awaiting the padlock to be dragged, the original, properly displayed time widget is displayed. It has a different font but isn't truncated, it's as if I'm using the wrong widget on the homepage.

anyone find a fix? Mine was normal until I decided to rearrange my Widgets and deleted the stock one now I have this problem.

I had the same issue once, messed with it for like a day trying to get it to work...finally figured out that if I lock the rotation with the switch then reboot, it causes the clock widget to malfunction. Playing with the rotation lock switch, making sure to end up in the unlocked position, then rebooting fixed it for me. Don't know if it will work for you, but worth a shot.

[Q] UCCW and Nova Launcher Prime

Even with no padding, I still get a pixel or two width between the edge of my screen and my UCCW widget.
Ideas?

They haven't implemented widget padding options for Nova yet, even on the latest build--Apex has though, I suggest trying that.
EDIT: As for your UCCW widget, you could try to incrementally increase Background>Dimensions>Width by 2-4px at a time til you get what you want.

I hate that border

It won't help, I already tried. No mater how much pixels widget has, border is still there beacuse of that resize vector or whatever, I sure hope they will implement it. I'm buying it as soon as they do it. I am photoshop/customization junkie so it's really getting on my nerves!

Haha, man have you been trying to get it to work all this time?
Kidding aside it absolutely should work on Apex if you have widget padding and horizontal/vertical margins set to 0--click my sig; it'll point you to a thread full of proof that you shouldn't get any uccw border problems if you do it right
If you're still having issues I'll need more details bruv like grid size and general launcher settings. Msg me

This should have been asked in the Q&A section so will probably be moved.
When at the lockscreen can you not drag the current widget down to maximise and then swipe to the right, you should then be able to tap a '+' icon to add a widget.

Notifications on lockscreen
Hey there,
I recently upgraded from the SGS3 to the SGS4.
I realize that everytime I get a new text message, I have to swipe across the lockscreen (the one with the clock) to get to the message notification widget. Thats seems a bit odd to me, coming from the notification bubbles on SGS3.
Is there a way I can get notification bubbles (I know its a long shot) or possibly the notification for a new message on the same lockscreen as the clock is?
I do not want two separate lockscreens for the clock and the notifications.
I tried deleting the clock lockscreen, but it just keeps coming back.
It seems like everytime I get a new message, I have no option but to have two lockscreens.
Is there a solutions to this ?

Im not sure if this is exactly what you're after, but go to the messaging app>settings, scroll down to near the bottom and check 'Preview message'. This should give you a preview of your received message that you can tap to take you straight to the messaging app.

Yet another 4.3 topic: REGRESSIONS

Ok, It looks everybody talks about the missing N3 features but nobody about REGRESSIONS over 4.1.2 stuff !
For example: i noticed that 2 features are missing
Weather on lockscreen (yes, you can still place a widget, but the samsung one was something cool)
News ticker (news, facebook & stocks) at the bottom of the lockscreen, under the quick links!
Did you find any other regressions?
Post here!!
I'm running MK4
