Stock 4x1 Weather, Nova launcher - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says, has anyone found a way to use the Stock 4x1 Weather widget using Nova launcher? Every other widget is available on Nova except 4x1 Weather. The only other option is 4x2 which isn't the same widget.

Don't think you can use the TW weather on Nova. I'm pretty sure its a TW only widget

Use Chronus instead !!! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

I used xwidget, a premade theme and couple hours of measurements and alignment and I think I got it working quite nicely

Care to share settings

Have xwidget installed then use this. I think this file goes in the xwidget folder

If you already own Zooper Widget Pro you can buy at a very low price the S6 weather widget.
It looks 1:1 to the original one!

wanted: clock app

so can anyone recommend a good clock app? i found one in the market that is like the HTC sense clock with weather too but for some reason it doesnt work right. it was 1x2 (i think) and i could not resize it so that sucks.
i use fancy widget pro, its a paid app but if is really customizable, has many themes and sizes, and its really gorgeous. it also has weather settings and themes for the weather, and its a lot like the sense clock.
I use beautiful widgets, has a clock and weather widget in one. Looks like the HTC weather clock widget. There is also MIUI weather widget/clock for free on android market. Also Go Launcher has a clock widget as well. Hope this helps.

This one i like too
Beautiful widgets will suit you needs best. But it is not free.
Fancy widget will do the job too, but is less customizable.

Try SiMi clock. Ive used beautiful widgets and others, I personally like this one. Its free, includes weather, simple and classy.

Got the same one like yours

[Q] Can we resize widgets??

Hello all,
On my GS2 I was able to resize widgets by press-hold then shrink. I hate the 4x2 size of clock/weather widget and like to use a 1x2 instead. Just wondering if that was lost or I am missing something real easy. If not possible I have seen a few widgets for free on Play store that have different size weather and clock widgets.
Thanks,
Brad
Apex launcher allows you to resize. I believe you need root access for that feature though.

Stock Clock Widget in Nova?

This is going to seem like a weird one, but I can't find the stock widget that's used for clock and weather when I use Nova launcher. Anyone have the file or know where to find it? Thanks.

I have two clock widgets when I look at adding a widget to nova, I don't know if one of mine was added by an app or if they are both default nova. If you can tell me where to pull a file from I'd be happy to help. Otherwise I'm not totally sure what you can do. I am still fairly new to this launcher.
Good luck, let me know what I can do to help.
I had the same problem... Ended up just getting Timely and using their widget

This is an ever-returning problem for all 3rd party Launchers. TouchWiz, Sense and whatever LG is calling their UI all have widgets that are only compatible with their respective launchers. Install all you want, they still wont show up outside of the stock LG Launcher. You can usually find some that look much the same and some times a genious comes along and ports the widgets. You could try heading over to the G2 forums, I suspect there's more life over there, maybe their "Themes and Apps" forum has a ported edition. Who knows.

I did the same thing - use the Timely widget. With Nova I could overlap it with the Yahoo weather widget so that they look like one thing.
My other virtually-the-same-thing clock widget choice is Chronus

I recently tried out "beautiful widgets" which allows clock and weather widgets and I really like it.

GS6 Edge Launcher

For all you lucky people out there that got your Edge already, have you replaced the launcher? If you're using a 3rd party launcher, would you please maybe share a screen shot of it? Maybe tell how the Edge features work on a 3rd party launcher
I'm waiting for Verizon to take my money and would like to have an idea of how it looks ?
Here is my edge running Nova. You can see in the top left the little bar for edge contacts. It still works great.

Thanks mate. Great news.
I use Dodol launcher. It's light and offers a good number of settings. No bugs so far.
Everything works fine on Total Launcher and Themer too!
I'm running nova launcher, i really like being able to categorize my app drawer. I wish i was able to use the touchwiz weather widget.

Check out Zooper Pro. They have an S6 widget add-on (paid widget) that looks exactly like the stock tw widget.

Nova Launcher Prime as launcher for me !
Touchwizz weather widget unacessible with Nova Launcher Prime but I use Chronus widget instead ...
L Launcher here, no problem with the edge
Using Nova Launcher. Crashes a LOT, but then so did Apex when I tried it. I'm on AT&T and 5.0.1 and those crashes a probably to do with the RAM management issue that Samsung just admitted (well, it might be Google's fault anyway)....

"at a glance" widget with the Google weather service. This is the best for me.
try Today Weather. It has 16 widgets to suit your taste.
