Beautiful Widgets Is Back on the Market (1/5/2010)

[g8gt2012]

Awesome widget, cool animations and seems to run smoother then WWD. Just missing a brightness widget and a 1x2 weather widget. Other then that its pretty much:icon_ banana: haha.

I know I am missing something here but I can't get rid of the military time and it says it's -1 and it's 30 degrees. What am I missing? Thanks!

Could it be -1 Celsius? You can go into the settings and uncheck "24 hours format" and "Celsius Temperature".

Thank you.. I am an idiot.

Yeah but if your going to use power control, then all of the other small widgets are pointless as well. I currently use brightness level widget but I just want one along the same theme as BW.

I wish home++ worked better. Than I would have it on my device also.

I'm running home++ and BW. You have issues with it?

 

[tha]-[acksaw]

Well, now I'm bummed. I bought BW back when it was first out. I backed it up to my phone before upgrading to version 2. So now that version 3 came out, I wanted to give it a shot, but I wanted to save my version 2, so I backed it up.

Well, my back of V2 overwrote V1. Anyone know of any way to get the first backup back?

Thanks guys! Love the BW in general. Both the clock/weather widget is great, and all the on/off widgets are just what I need for the Droid.

Yeah, you have to manually change the name of your backups. I currently have versions 2.53 and 2.54 as well as the old 2.36 backed up. I do not think 2.36 will work properly now because it wants to download some stuff that it is not able to.

Great!! big fan on the new look. Best widget on the market as far as I am concerned!!

Just a couple of little things...this is not a complaint at all. I just thought if changes were still being made to the look it would be "cool" if the frost in the corners for cold/snowy days could come back. And bigger clouds on cloudy days...lol.

Agree.

Are you using geo or location

First off, remove the widget from the screen to the "Trash Can"

Long press on the screen to Add Widgets and select whichever home you want (normal or Smaller)

Input your Zip Code in the Default City Field at the top.

For now Start off by turning Geolocation OFF (you can change it later)

Uncheck 24hrs

Uncheck Celsius (if that is your preference)

Set Refreshing Rate to 30 Minutes

DO NOT check "Force English Fix:"

Sunrise/Sunset select "Official"

Leave Tempurature Notification and Forecast Opening effect unchecked (you can change later if you like)

Click OK.

This should add the widget back on the screen and after 30 seconds or so your current weather should display. If using Larger Home you should see you location on the widget (not shown on smaller version)

If it seems to be working OK, wait until you are sure the weather has changed some outside, tap the clouds or weather icons on the widget, the Forecast/animation page should open, (verify you location is correct if using smaller home) then tap the "refresh" symbol on the top left of the weather animation screen

Screen should disappear and you should briefly see a message box near the bottom that says "Undating Weather" a few seconds later the weather should change (if there has been a change) on the widget.

Once you confirm all of this is working OK, tap the weather info on the widget so the weather forecast page opens and tap the "Settings" Icon (gear) on the top right and change any of the settings to your preference.


Hope that helps,
