Good clock/weather widget for the 7?
« on: November 02, 2012, 10:05:58 AM »
I'm not happy with Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widgets so far on the 7. Any good ones that are tablet optimized?

HD Widgets has hi-def packs as well as the tablet formatted widgets. Looks great and highly customizable.

I'm testing Animated Weather Clock.  It looks good, but I want to see if my battery life drops with it installed.  I've also used 3D flip clock and weather, but the weather screen is s bit limited.   Animated Weather has a slider so you can see how the weather will change.  I 3D weather only shows the current forecast.

I use HD occasionally but there still seems to be a bug that shaves off the bottom of my date in landscape. I am not sure if it's the Nexus or the widget as to why that the problem occurs. It isn't horrible. It's just there.

I think it's 4.1.2. I saw it when the other thread mentioned the clock cut-off.  Then I flashed Paranoid Android, and the problem went away.  I am running HD Widgets.

I downloaded eWeather HD from Amazon when I found it for free Tuesday.  Love it!  I told a coworker about it later that day but when he checked it was no longer free.  It is one I would definitely be willing to pay for,

Seems to be fixed now. Not sure if latest release fixed it or its JB 4.20.

Strange, as it's OK on mine.

Maybe because I haven't made mine transparent?
