Go to battery next "high background power consumption" and add your app

Thats not sufficient. I have installed play store developer to add "at a glace widget" widget beta then I get google weather I update the google app and instal kwgt with similar "another widget" and set it with google awareness and all of them are working with google weather and now is working fine and better because I have put to refres every 30 minutes in the other widgets i dont know if refres weather info every 3 or 6 hours.

Widgets for Androkkid

On ssj5trunks' (the developer of Androkkid) request, I 'm opening a thread for widget for this great program.
The Androkkid comes with these widgets:
AnalogClock
Battery: Widget without text for QVGA is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4879711&postcount=126
DigitalClock
HeroClock

wmdirk has supplied a widget library to facilitate the development of widgets, version 1.4, Dec. 26, 2009: http://sites.google.com/site/wmdsoft/wmd-androkkid-lib
After talking to wmdirk (and because I no longer use Androkkid), I've decided to change this first post. wmdirk's widgets will not be updated here but on his webpage http://sites.google.com/site/wmdsoft/home. He seems to be the only one currently making widgets for Androkkid, and he is very successful in doing so. But some of the widgets are not free, and I didn't want to mix the free and the commercially available in one list. However, this thread will still be used by wmdirk to answer questions regarding his widgets, and to announce new ones.
Other widgets that have to be installed separately (I'll try to keep this updated and with the newest first):
This is a list of wmdirk's widgets: some of them free http://sites.google.com/site/wmdsoft/home
WMD-NextAppointments
WMD-Clock+
WMD-RegInfo
WMD-Clock
WMD-TaskManager
WMD-WifiToggle
WMD-BTToggle
WMD-Profile
WMD-Calculator
WMD-Agenda
WMD-Tasks
Other widgets: all free
RSS Script / Widget by qkzoo Jan. 10, 2010: Not really a widget, but a Mortscript that can be used in conjunction with WMD's RegInfo widget. It downloads the XML from an RSS feed, strips the relevent data out of it, and plugs it into your registry.

hgBattery widget by ajige Oct. 6, 2009: It's rather simple, but it shows the % in text and color, and whether it's charging. Clicking on it takes you to the power settings. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4879711&postcount=126
hgTasksToday by ajige Oct. 1, 2009:will show up to 7 outlook tasks that are due today. Clicking on the widget will take you to the tasks program. The widget will redraw every 10 min. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4917995&postcount=186
Installing:
Unzip the files to the Widget directory and Androkkid will automatically detect the widgets. Then holding on the desktop, click add, then widget, then select it, and ok and they should show up on the desktop.
Skinning:
The widgets can be skinned by changing the background image - bg.png in the gfx directory. However, it's important to keep the same size as the original, otherwise the font won't show well.
Perhaps I´m too stupid, but how do i install these widgets?
I had a look at the androkkid discussion, but don´t find a solution.....
Thanks for the help.

No, you are not stupid, I'm the one who was sloppy and forgot instructions.
You should just unzip the files to the Widget directory and Androkkid will automatically detect it. Then holding on the desktop, click add, then widget, then select it, and ok.
The weather widget has a settings menu you can reach by clicking in the top half. Not all the settings have an effect yet. Clicking lower on the widget, should refresh, but I'm not sure that's working yet. Also I forgot to delete a debug message. Will try and upload a new version today.
Wether widget updated in first post (messages used for debug purposes have been removed).
Also updated information re installation and skinning.
+1 I look forward to see some more widgets. Your hard work is apperciated. thanks

Here is a Weaher Widget I have been working on. I have beased it on Titanium Weather. I shoukd have it ready in a couple of days for some testing. It depends on how my time permits. I plan on having the next 4 days forecast in the empty area in the middle.
Very nice! Cant wait to preview.

Maybe ready in a few days. Just got to work on the update process.
Good job on the widgets!
Having problems finding information on how the widget interfaces with Androkkid and need some example code. A simple "Hello World" widget would be useful and would provide a springboard for creation of new widgets.
Failing that some source code of any developed widget to date.
Edit: Scratch that, just noticed some widget source code on the main site
Looking for the Weather code for London England and Bedford England which site are they on as I put in the Weather.com code for it and it crashed Androkkid
edit is it UKXX0014 for bedford and UKXX0085 for London ??

I'll try to have a new version of the weather widget with the source code later today, and I'll have some more error testing to try and prevent crashes.
It is important though to be connected to the internet when installing the weather widget or changing the location.
In order to test the weather codes, you can put the following in your browser's adress bar:
http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?p=UKXX0085
and it should give you the same weather forecast I'm using in the widget
hgWeather updated with source.
The weather is updated from the Yahoo RSS weather feed.
It will show the current and next day's forecast. You can add several widgets to use for several cities.

Skinning:
Bacground (bg.bmp) can be changed as long as the size is the same.
Or the background can be transparent.
Font color and size can be changed.
Weather icons can be changed as long as the naming convention is the same. The included icons comes from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354111&page=180, post 1798
Additionally icons can be found here: http://pixel.dnsalias.net/weatherpanel/wiki/index.php/Weather_Icons

It would be great if other people could improve on this widget.
I used the free developer tool Sharp Develop to compile the widget.
Just tried with weather code UKXX1730 it has updated and allows me to add to the page but i am only seeing the bottom half of the image you have provided plus if i change the temp to c instead of f it still shows farenheit temperature.
im not sure how others feel but ideally i would like to add a weather widget to my homescreen along with the clock and a row of priority icons or have a small icon sized image which when clicked on brings up full details

Are you using the version posted yesterday? Because with the latest version, when I change from f to c or opposite, it changes temperature. But you need to be connected to the internet when changing from temperature unit.
When you say only the bottom shows, what parts are showing? City? Current weather? Next day's forecast?
Sometimes you have to click several times before it properly updates from the internet.

Yes, that has been my goal too, but I'm having some problems with the forecast rss, so I'm giving it a rest for now. But the code is there so maybe someone else wants to give it a try? I would also like to have better support for different cities.
Otherwise, you could use the transparent version, set the color of the code to the same as the background, and then you would only see the icons.
If i have time i create the top bar widget to add TopBar in Android with widget and not in Androkkid directly.
Or if anyone want create it i think this is a good widget for all.
Bye
P.S.
I look for the problem of Menu for contact.
I test it in my diamond and when i try it work, i retest it.

OK. So I have finished the initial release of GORAPSWeather Widget for Androkkid. This is my first Androkkid Widget so please bare with me.
First all the credit to ssj5trunks for such a great app and the source code to the Hero Clock widget which I used as the code base for this widget.
Second thanks to Showaco for his Titanium Weather which I used as the weather base for this widget.
Note: This widget requires Mortscript.
Installation and Setup Instructions
1) Downlad and unpack GORAPSWeather.zip
2) Open GorapsWeather.mscr with a text editor and make the appropriate changes to the two variables: location and units.
- Change location to the accuweather.com location code for your location.
If you need to find your code go to www.accuweather.com/m and search for your city. Then you will see the location code in the URL. It will look something like NAM|CA|ON|MARKHAM.
- Change units to C or F.
3) Save your edited script.
4) Copy the GORAPSWeather folder to the Androkkid widgets folder on your phone.
5) Execute the click on the GorapsWeather.mscr in a file explorer to initialize the values. If you don't do this and add the widget it will crash Androkkid.
6) Add the widget to your Androkkid desktop. Clicking on the widget will update the weather data.
I hope you like it.

Weather Widget not working

I have tried numerous searches, both here and google itself....and can't find an answer. I seem to find other people with a similar issue as I am having, but no resolution. I have 2 types of Clock/Weather widgets I have tried to use...both display the time correctly, but no weather. It will show my location, but again...no weather. When you click on where the weather would be, it will tell that there is no forecast details available. When I go into the settings of the widget app I am trying to use, and try to manually put in my location, It will say it can not find my location...no matter if i input the zip code, or city name. But again...the corrct location shows up on the widget itself when the GPS option is selected in location settings. The two widgets I have tried to use is, FANCY WIDGET - and LP SENSE CLOCK WIDGET (Both of which are HTC style clock/weather widgets, just the LP SENSE is the updated 4.0 version)
If anyone has insight on this, It would be appreciated. All I can seem to figure out the issue is, is that something on the phone is preventing weather to be displayed, as the problem happens on 2 different types of widgets.
I have tried a reboot, reinstall, wipe cache, etc
A lot of weather widgets that was using iGoogle's weather API is experiencing this because they shut down Google that API. Either wait for dev to update the app to use a different weather provider or switch weather services.

By switching weather services, do you mean by finding a new widget...or is there a way to change the widgets weather service? I have been trying to figure out a way by editing something within the widget by accessing the files with root explorer, but cant find anything.
You need a new widget. Something like AccuWeather, Weather Channel, Weather bug, etc. You need one that DOESNT use Googles weather service. I've never seen one that let's you change it.

Beautiful Widgets had an option to use either Google or Accuweather as a source, then again it's a paid app. I'm sure it's not the only one out there.

It appears Google has quietly killed its weather API
Reported story from http://thenextweb.com
Last month, Google announced plans to shutter iGoogle, among a bunch of other services. Many developers and users were (and still are) outraged, but at least they have some time to breathe: iGoogle isn’t going away until November 1, 2013. That means there are still 15 months left to adjust and export your data. Yet some changes are already starting to take effect: the company’s private Weather API, for example, appears to be dead in the water.
The Next Web has reached out to Google for comment. While there has been no official announcement or communication indicating that the API has been closed, it is noteworthy that iGoogle — the product that the API serviced — is now using Wundergrond.com instead, as you can see in these two examples: 94102 and Mountain View. This would suggest the search giant has knowingly made the switch.
It would appear that this error is happening because Google has quietly phased out its Weather API. A quick check over at Status Dashboard shows that the response time has dropped to -1 today.
In spite of no official word from Google, Web developers, many of whom have been experiencing issues, seem convinced that the API has been quietly closed down by the search giant. A Hacker News submission points to an error message that Google throws up when you try to query the Weather API with the 94102 area code in San Francisco while another developer over on Stack Overflow points to the same error when you search for a specific city, such as Mountain View:
We’re sorry…
… but your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can’t process your request right now.
See Google Help for more information.
The error page features the old Google logo and a 2009 copyright stamp. Twitter users also don’t seem pleased:

Things I did not plan on doing this week: Rewriting weather app because Google shut down their weather API!
— Bradley Batt (@bradbatt) August 27, 2012
So Google pulled the plug on their undocumented Weather API? Expect support tickets.
— Joël Cox (@joelcox) August 27, 2012
Web developer Jordan Stephens isn’t even bothering to look for alternatives. In fact, CurrentlyIn has been completely shut down as a result of the Google Weather API outage, according to an error message from the service:
currentlydown : (
Google has shut down its undocumented weather API (which was used by this site).
currentlyin.net will be down for the forseeable future.
As this is a private API, Google is arguably entitled to pull support without warning but that won’t stop developers being disappointed by the move and lack of communication. Since its main purpose was to serve iGoogle, it is perhaps unsurprising that Google has axed it.
I was using Beautiful Widgets. The update as of the 03/09/2012
version 4.12 - 3rd of september 2012
- Remove Google Weather API
Yes Beauriful widgets is your best bet.
Well that explains a fair few things like why W&TW wasn't updating like it should've. While it's currently like 30°c outside today, it (W&TW), was only reporting a current temperature of 15°c, markably cooler then. Having taken the advice to uninstall and, then re-installing the App, has now left me with a dead App that can no longer pull in any Weather data here or from the States. beit by proper Place Name, or by Zipcode.
And I really loved W&TW too...
I for One am gonna miss the Cloud Animations.

This was resolved by going in to
Opening up the setting of Fany Widgets
Open Location & Settings
change to AccuWeather
change Geocoder to "Weather Provider"
and i only Tick "Geolocation" = dont tick "Use GPS" to save on battery life
This should also help with your Weather location remaining up to date

This is happening to me as well. What exactly were the changes to weather? I don't see anymore options in the settings.
Make sure to link the hotspot to ThemerWeather not the weather app you installed. I am not sure if that solves it for you guys, but I haven't had any issues with it since left it at default.
We changed the weather so that:
1. The default provider is AccuWeather, not The Weather Channel. This is because AW is available in more countries than TWC. That said, Themer will still look on your phone for dozens of other weather apps.
2. As long as you are using Themer Beta 1.4 or above, go to Settings>Themer>Weather. From there you can force C or F, or leave it on Auto.
We are using a weather provider (Open Weather Map) which is unreliable. We are going to change providers are soon as possible.

It says 65 degrees (which has to be Fahrenheit, even though i set it as celcius in Settings>Themer>Weather. Below that it says haze in location n/a. this theme is amazing but one page is wasted because it cant find anything.
EDIT: How can i change an icon for something if the icon is applied on my homescreen? for example, there is a shopping folder but i dont want that, i just want it to be the play store, but i want it to use the icon of the shopping folder. when i try and change the icon i can only select from my gallery. is there no way to select an icon from the theme?

[Q] Problem with weather in Themer

Sorry for my level of English but I'm from Spain, and it's really hard to find a Spanish that speaks English well.
Ok, my problem it's peculiar because when I used Themer 4 or 5 months ago I don't have them, but today I download Themer again and the weather not operating properly (yes, google translate) in any theme.
The first picture is the weather that makes according to Themer, and the second picture is the real weather in my city (when i press the rain in the first picture Yahoo's Weather opens because is the app that I use to weather, but I don't know why the weather in my desktop is wrong).

Thank you!

Hi there!
The first method we suggest would be to change your weather settings. Simply go into the Themer Settings - Weather - then change the options. If this doesn't work, try switching themes, as this should kick-start the weather. Finally clearing the data/cache for Themer should fix the issue if nothing else works.
If your weather is still wrong, keep in mind that we are constantly trying to fix this issue :fingers-crossed:

Yahoo Live Weather on Lockscreen Gone

Hi All,
I set up Yahoo weather to be showing current conditions as wallpaper on lockscreen and it worked for a week or so. Since yesterday I only get a random Flickr photo instead of live conditions. I have reset touchwiz settings and Weather settings with no result.
Has anyone had such a problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?
TIA,

I have the same setup apart from location being on. When I set the Live Weather wallpaper for lockscreen, the first time I unlock it, the animation shows up briefly and then disappears.
I have found the Live Weather app and cleared its cache and data,, rebooted and still no luck.
It's a location issue, that is for sure.
Does Live Weather not show images from your current location that match current weather conditions? That's what mine seems to do anyway and I think it works well

Are you saying that the app BY DEFAULT is going t oshow Flickr and only when no imagery is available Live Weather? Is the app not called Live Weather and should it not show Live Weather and not imagery from Flickr? I think you misunderstood the name of the app?
I know and fully understand the name of the app, live weather doesn't necessarily mean pretty drops of water or sun flares, live weather could also mean images of your location with current weather conditions

To clarify: the app for lockscreen is Yahoo Meteo Live and it automatically show a photo from flickr that match the current meteo condition of the city that you set up in the Samsung clock/meteo widget (or from the current location if you have this active). In case the city is too small or unknown (or the data connection is poor) the app display fixed images matching meteo conditions. In both case it shows animation for rain, hot, fog, etc. I love this feature and I set a lot of cities (my preffered and last visited) watching beatiful pictures of them switching one by one every time I want. The strange issue is that in the last days the photos are loaded only for some city (thing never happened before!). Now I can see the pictures only for the current location and the city of New York! I think Yahoo has changed something... Clear the cache and reboot are useless for me.
Did this ever get resolved? I have the same problem. I used to get local images on my lock screen matching the time of day and weather conditions. Now I only get the weather - clouds and sun with no info on where I am.
I installed the yahoo weather app from the market and it this is what I used to get from the live wall paper (I recognise some of the photos), but if I load the weather widget that powers the live wallpaper it seems to be powered from accuweather? I'm a bit confused as I haven't changed anything.
