2. Pulse - News
3. Palette Painter - Drawing Widget
1. clock
2. dual battery widget
3. calender
Battery Monitor Pro
Clockr
Asus email widget
After seeing this thread, I realized I'm barely using any widgets on the Prime. I have Beautiful Widgets (bought it back when I got my Nexus One) and really haven't used it since. Gonna have to go back and check it out again...
Circle launcher to keep things handy but clean
BeWeather is decent and free at getjar
Colorize or Wizz timeline
All stock:
0. Photo gallery: so I can see the girl I love when ever I hit home.
1. The ASUS weather widget because it's unobtrusive.
2. The ASUS E-mail widget because I like it more than the standard e-mail list widgets.
4th would be a toss between dual battery widget and the ASUS one. I don't really use many widgets.

I can't decide which one to buy. I have fancy widget now and I would like weather animations like sense. What ones better? How does fancy widget pro compare too?

I think Beautiful Widgets has a free version so you could check it out. I have the paid version and when checking the weather it is autoated but not in the clock mode that shows weather. They also have some weather live wallpapers that are weather related.

Gotta say Beautiful Widgets takes the cake, much more advanced imo. It is also very moddable, plenty themes you can use on it to fit the style of your overall phone. Definitely worth the money
Thanks guys. Will try out beautiful widgets

There is nothing to be compared to Sense Weather. But I think, Beautiful Widgets tries that the best way I have seen.
Fancy widget uses your chosen weather skin in the animated forecast whereas Beautiful wgt uses the stock skin no matter what skin you are using (last time i looked).
I buy beautiful widget and working well.But i found it drain my battery,Ist i use live wallpaper to check i moved to normal wallpaer and only set current weather widget but this time again battery drain.After that i removed all beautiful widgets from home screen and now workng well.You chkd ur self in battery use when u set beautiful widget it shows more batry consumed by android system and when there is no widget it shows less.
I don't have this issue with Beautiful Widgets.
I don't notice any more battery consumption using Beautiful Widgets

prefer fancy widgets
I like fancy witgets
Looking for the files for the stock news and Weather widget ? Running ADW ex launcher, and it doesn't show it for some reason ? Can I install those separately ?
To me ADW, is a must have on the EVO-3D, because it allows for customizing the amount of rows of icons, and having 5 rows high of apps is a must on the higher resolution of the 3VO, because stock, with just 4 rows seems ****ed up, like to much space between widgets.

UPDATE;
I had an old apk from my EVO 4G, was clear/transparent News & Weather widget. I threw that onto my 3VO SD/Card, and all set
I'm also using an alternative launcher (Zeam Launcher) and would like to use some of the HTC widgets, yet those are only available when using Sense. What apk did you use (for example to get the weather widget back)? I imagine I can find it on the webs?
Does anyone have the stock non transparent News and Weather widget apk ? Now I don;t like the totally clear background, makes it harder to read, I prefer the black background, or even better would be a semi-transparent with dark grey background, sort of see through.
Anything out there ?
Hi,
I've been using MIUI for the past few weeks and enjoy it, but find the default launcher isn't for me. However, when i switch to ADWex, i lose the photo frame widget and the 2x4 clock, both of which i use and like.
Any recommendations on getting these widgets to work? or are there any decent alternatives? i can do without the clock, but, as the father of newborn, i kind of like having the photo frame...
thanks!
Search "big photo frame" in market.

thanks, i'll check it out!
Widgets like Music, Weather and other social widgets etc are cool but only can work on timescape UI. i like sony's launcher but i prefer Go Launcher's smoothness. anyway to use their widget on go launcher and such?
Yeah me too, I would like to use the weather widget on Go launcher ex. Anyone know if this can be done?
Sorry to bump an old thread,anyone news?
i want so, and i also want to have an option on browser download manager is "open file location"
Nope. The same thing as with Sense, they use custom APIs.

Hi I'm thinking of changing the Xperia home for something else. What of the alternate launchers would you recommend me? My priorities is efficiency, customizability, good organization and nice look. Moreover I tried some and noticed that it can't insert some of built-in default widgets, namely Xperia clock 2x1, Xperia notes 2x2 and Xperia system toggles 2x1. How do I use these in 3rd party launcher? Can I install these widgets as standalone app so that be accessible from any launcher?

If u want a fast, stable and customizable launcher, I would definitely recommend nova launcher... Smooth as silk!
For the widgets part, as far as I know, Sony widgets are only supported in Sony made launchers!
U could try xperia z launcher, its really good n smooth too! (but mobile needs to be rootednfor that)
Cheers..
XZ launcher seems not to be found on google play and too bad the 3 named widgets not available outside Xperia Home. I'm already used with them and thanks for confirming Nova, I have hesitated between this apex and sslauncher.

Vote for nova
I've tried it. But switched and used Sony Launcher again.
I like those widgets too
Sorry for going a bit off topic but, is there any Launcher that allows us to change its menu icon..
Most of the launchers come with AOSP menu icon and aren't changeable. I want one that can be changed to xperia like.

Yet a suggestion for acceptable Xperia clock widget replacement? I hate Clock JB+ and several ones I don't like too. Mostly I miss the tight widget integration with alarms and small size (2x1 only) with decent look. I also want to have shown date within the widget.
Is there way to extract these internal widgets somehow and install as standalone app?
