Anyone having an issue with no weather being updated or found on the stock News and Weather Genie we all use and love.
Best Widget ever for created for Android, and a classic since the Nexus-One.
Last night/today the weather part stopped working, won't update or display weather. But the News sections is OK.

I haven't used it on my N4 yet, but I fired it up and weather works for me.
I agree about it being awesome though. It brings me back to when I booted up my Nexus One for the first time. I just wish they would have given it a little bit of holo love.

Thanks, not sure why mine is screwed up ? News works great though.
Genie News and Weather widget, hands down my #1 must have widget. The Nexus-One started it
I thought on the Galaxy Nexus release, with the all new 4.0 ICS, there would have been a new version, like you said with Holo theme, I was betting 99% on that.
Then, I thought, OK for sure a new updated Genie with the Nexus 4. Nope.
Oh well, this widget is almost "retro" old school cool now . Keeps that N-One feel.

I am running a semi transparent version, not totally clear, but not solid gray background either, you can see live wallpapers through it partially. Looks nice.

I keep mine pretty simple. Just my kid, a clock, and dock. I didn't bother to show the other screens because it is just launcher pro widgets.

Something I did from scratch. Icons are from dreamflye (or how ever its spelled). I was inspired by his dock, I liked it but it didn't fit what I was going for. So I did my own. I've been toying with releasing it.

Yeah dude...you should release it. If noone else uses it...I sure will!

PM me your contact info and your color preference and I will send it to you. I can't really send the icons yet because they are not my work, but I will be doing some of my own in the future (text icons are easy). I can maybe do a small request of icons if you let me know.
I am working on getting the some variations done before I release it (Tab on left, right, or center). I kind of want to release a bunch of variations so people can pick what they like. And I probably need to do some icons (at least the basics).
droid 2, epic 2.5, modified stock theme
Hey faceless, you wanna' post your dock icons? I like the extended right tab a lot (and I'm also too lazy to make my own unless I really have to )
Hi guys. Hope I'm posting this in the correct place.
I came from Blackberry recently and did alot of alpha testing for Bellshare, developer of Berryweather and other apps. Berryweather is by far the best weather app for Blackberry bar none. I have looked at every Android weather app I can find and there are none that come close to Berryweather. I'm trying to talk the dev into making an Android weather app equivalent to Berryweather but don't think he'll do it.
I think there is a great opportunity for an Android developer to make a really nice functional weather app. Any takers?

I came from Berry Weather and there are alot of weather apps that stack up.

What are you looking for that you dont see in android apps?
I've tried those and although they're decent apps they don't have alot of features Berryweather has.
Im used to many nice custom maps. Up to 10 locations. Customizable notifications with popup integration. Probably more I haven't thought of.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I'm in the same boat. I purchased 3 weather apps for my android phone and none of them will reliably follow my location like berry weather did. Now don't get me wrong they advertise that their app will do it, it just doesn't. I will second porting berry weather to android. Would pay if someone took it on.
The guy who made all of the custom maps for Berryweather has moved to android so he's game. Just need someone to develop the app.

MIUI/Bali running Vibrant
As there is a plethora of weather widgets on the market, I have tried to find one that works well and displays my local climate, instead of the nearest major city (which can have drastically different weather than I do). So, I am wondering if anyone can recommend a good weather widget that will replace the clock on the A500 and display my local information, a clock, and possibly the next few days forecast.
Beautiful widgets? Best 3 bucks ive spent on the market...

Weather Widget from Read Transformer
I'm using both the weather widget and ice cube live wallpaper which was originally pre-installed on Asus Eeepad Transformer. They can be downloaded from Xoom discussion forum under theme discussion board.
My Acer could barely function with that live wallpaper from the Asus.
Got the same setup as Beanieandme and it runs smooth as silk mate.

Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
I noticed from the Xoom thread that the apk's aren't signed, will they work in a non-rooted device?
I haven't rooted mine yet, still a little cautious on the whole thing in the event something happens. I'll likely do it once we see more custom roms and such and I know there's a definite way to back out of the rooted system if needed (e.g. Warranty/Peace of Mind).
Could someone post the link, I couldn't find the weather app

Its working fine for me but I just don't know about it, it almost feels sluggish after playing with it I kind of like the old ui better
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
yea the new market feels sluggish, as for the ui look it is nice and different.
Downloaded the new market last night and installed it on my Hero. I love the new look and it moves and processes much quicker for me. Everything working great HERE!!
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA Premium App
Installed and loving it. A little sluggish but quite functional. Maybe it could be included in the CM nightlies (well after a bit of testing)?
the market should just update itself over time for devices on 2.2 and up.
The new market is the shiznit. If someone wants the old one (and can't use the search button) I stil have the transparent BG green 2.3.6 that pendo made.
i actually liked the original 1.5 blacked out market lol.
Not a big fan of the new market ... not 100% sure why, the layout seems a little weird to me

Yes I am very disappointed. I've been wanting to use dashclock on my lock screen for ages!
I don't get why HTC chose to leave off a headline feature of 4.2.2.

Big time disappointment for me aswell, this is my first android phone, and when testing others phones, the majority had it working...... can not understand why they would'nt include it.

The only one I ever use is Dashclock. Thanks to the 4.2.2 Sense update and Widget Locker, I can still use it. I'm annoyed by HTC's decision but it wasn't a problem
Disable HTCLockscreen.apk and you will get stock lockscreen with lock screen widgets.
Apparently worked for someone in the ARHD thread but doesn't work for me, stock lockscreen shows but no lock screen widgets.

Only works if you dirty flash from 4.1.1 rom to a 4.2.2 rom. Most people couldn't get the phone to boot though.

Yep this worked for me, but I did dirty flash, I don't confirm if that's the reason it worked though.
The novelty of dash clock had worn off for me though useful as it is.
Not sure if you mean you're disappointed that HTC didn't include stock widgets, but you could try out Widget Locker and put other widgets on the lockscreen.
I'm a bit confused. Once I get the 4.2 update I will be able to use widgets like Dash Clock, right? Changing lock screen is no big issue for me as long as it works.

You won't be able to add widgets to your lockscreen. That's just how HTC did it. Even if you remove their lockscreen. Only way to get widgets will be if you use widgetlocker.

The widgets don't work. Only if you dirty flashed over a 4.1.1 Rom. Unless a newer version was released that some how included it, you have to use widgetlocker.

Ahh Ok, yeah I did a dirty flash. But I switched back to the sense lock screen because I noticed if you had a pattern lock and got a call, you would have to unlock with your pattern before answering the call with the AOSP lockscreen

I have personally had problems using Widget Locker both on my S3 and now the One...find it to be laggy and at times not work consistently with notifications.

Hi!
I've just flashed the new 4.2.2 and when i looked at the promissing lockscreen widget i was and i am confused.
I can see 7digital and a bunch of my Fancywidget widgets and Google, where are ALL my other widgets? Why so few?
I can live with that i can't scroll to the left and right for more pages (seems very strange to me anyway) but hey, i though ALL widgets could be put on my lockscreen...
Wait so the new lockscreen style "Widget" doesn't allow for Dash Clock to be placed on it? That's so bunk =/
