Favorite Contact App ? - Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps

I'm looking for a favorite contact wiget like the one on the HTC eris the one that comes preloaded on the first screen to the right of the start home screen.
Is there such an app/widget available for the moto droid?
Also is there a battery app/widget like the HTC eris ?
I'm the new guy here and new to the moto droid just got it today so if I'm asking stupid ?'s please don't be too hard on me
Thanx ö

The closest widget I have found so far is people/contacts widget.

The demo works good was going to buy the full app but my credit card will not let me pay €0.89 . Stupid card will not let my buy anything unless it's listed as US dollars. Guess I'll just use the demo till it run's out of time, and keep trying to find something else to fit my needs...

Dunno about a non-paid people widget, but the Gauge Battery Widget is pretty nice.

Launcher pro plus has a widget similar to htc's now. Apparently the dev is planning on incorporating a few htc style widgets. The cost is 2.99 at the moment through paypal.

I found the HTC battery widget in the market, if it's not available in your stock market try using an alt market like "my market" as for a contacts widget, if your running adw or launcher pro I like Droid contacts coupled with sync my pics. It gives you a decent contact widget that syncs with your Facebook pics.

it looks like beautful widgets to me, the smaller home widget to be precise
I keep mine pretty simple. Just my kid, a clock, and dock. I didn't bother to show the other screens because it is just launcher pro widgets.

Something I did from scratch. Icons are from dreamflye (or how ever its spelled). I was inspired by his dock, I liked it but it didn't fit what I was going for. So I did my own. I've been toying with releasing it.

Yeah dude...you should release it. If noone else uses it...I sure will!

PM me your contact info and your color preference and I will send it to you. I can't really send the icons yet because they are not my work, but I will be doing some of my own in the future (text icons are easy). I can maybe do a small request of icons if you let me know.
I am working on getting the some variations done before I release it (Tab on left, right, or center). I kind of want to release a bunch of variations so people can pick what they like. And I probably need to do some icons (at least the basics).

Hey faceless, you wanna' post your dock icons? I like the extended right tab a lot (and I'm also too lazy to make my own unless I really have to )

Launcher Pro Plus has Friends widget,Facebook widget, messaging! Widgets and many more. That's what I'm using right now!

The problem with LauncherPro is that it cannot use the TouchWiz Widgets. LauncherPro doesn't have enough Widgets itself to be useful to me (not saying it's useless to anyone else).
Plus the paid version can't be put in the market and probably wouldn't have carrier billing available for it.
But like I said, the Samsung Widget provides the same function of those others.
Where do I get the samsung eidgets from

Best home screen widget

Okay, I'm looking for a good 2 row / 4 column homescreen widget. I'm so annoyed and can't find a good one. I have fancy widget and beautiful widget. Any other suggestions?

Whats wrong with Fancy Widget? Or what makes you annoyed?
Simi clock
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
I like GO Weather for now, although I would prefer if it would launch the clock app when you touch the clock...hopefully they will add it in
I like fancy widget, you'd have to search for it, I don't think its available for download anywhere official. I iseit on my captivate and my aria. it looks and act (mostly) like the stock sense flip clock widget. And you can set it to open specific apps when you touch the weather, calendar or clock...
Edit... OK I'm dumb, I just read right over the part where you said you already have fancy widget...
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I use fancy widget, but not the one available on the market. I don't like that one. I found an old version floating around on the launcher pro website. Its identical to the sense flip clock (which is why its not available via the market anymore I'm assuming).

AOSP Calender Widget

THe one thing that gets me about AOSP is the fact that we can't have a calender widget like sense does. I've used launcher pro which has a very nice calender widget, but it seems not to run very well. Somone please develop a calender widget like the sense or launcher pro one (agenda view reeally).
There are some out there, but don't look nice
Colorize widget has a nice agenda calendar. It's free in the market.
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Pure calendar widget.
Try out Jorte. Free on the market. So many features and customizations, you won't be dissappointed.
I use smooth calendar, on android market.
Its free, & the same as sense calendar widget....( little better if you ask me, you can customize the view even more).
and ITS ON CM7
Now I have wimax and my sense calendar widget, NO REASON TO GO BACK TO SENSE NOW>
What about a good scrolling agenda widget. Still hunting.

I use Android Agenda Widget Plus (paid version). Also has a free version. It is scrollable and is very customizable. Plus, I use it with TouchDown for Exchange

Plus: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roflharrison.agenda.plus&feature=search_result
Thanks evyerone for the great responses - new apps I've never heard of. they are very promising - but I realized finally why you can't have one like the sense one or the launcher one - the launcher has to support "scrollable" widgets. Any how - as a result - i am using MIUI so there launcher isn't just yet scrollable - so it won't matter.
Thanks guys!!!

Sense based customizable (adw-launcher pro) launcher

Pretty much I'm asking. Is there a launcher that is like adw and launcher pro but is compatible with sense widgets.
I've been looking but not finding.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
There isn't one. Sense, including the widgets, is proprietary to HTC and they are very quick to sue when it comes to their property. There are some skins available that make use of the google apps, calendar and music, that work well with LauncherPro. I've used Pure Music Widget by francois Deslanders and it has a nice transparent 4x4 widget.
Sad face...
Hmm I see the issue. No one would wanna do that work for free. Thx for quick response.

I've seen and tried some of the things you pointed out. But I guess I'm really just trying to make use of my sense rom. I'm using launcher pro and I love it but not being able to you the weather widget has always bugged me.

Beautiful Widgets has almost the exact same weather/clock widget as HTC, plus hundred of others to choose from. Only problem I ever had with it is it gets my location wrong sometimes.
Thx I've looked into beautiful widgets but I'm talking about the full screen weather widget the one with the forcast.
The reason I was asking was mainly because of the resizing of widgets in these launchers.

GO Weather maybe?

Yeah it only has a 4x1 weather widget which kind of sucks. Launcher Pro does allow resizing but it just keeps the same 4x1 widget and enlarges it to about 4x2 and it doesn't look good.
Cool so I just got done trying out the go weather app. Its not bad but I only really like it because of the live wallpaper.
But for that same reason It's not what I'm looking for. I do appreciate the idea. Oh well still looking.
I guess what I'm really looking for is that sense 4x4 forcast widget on one of my launcher pro screens. (I know not possible lol)

Hopefully they release their Sense SDK soon like they said they would.
Palmary Weather Pro is very close. I think it's a buck or 2 in the market. I love it.
