Weather animations Sense idea - Wildfire General

I've got a idea for the weather animations in HTC sense.
Just set the big weather widget on background ( invisible ) and that you still can. place your own widgets on top of it ) you won't see the weather widget ).
Because if the widget refresh itself you see the animation. Then it must just refresh itself when you enter the homescreen.
Any ideas to get this working?

no i want weather wallpaper but without weather animation
There's a option called 'weather animation on/off switch'. You'll find it when adding a shortcut to your home screen.

The normal wallpaper shows the weather in the centre, but not the animation, so it does what you are asking?
It does show the animation, but only once. You can switch it off by the shortcut I mentioned above.
That weather animation shortcut is a part of Cookie's Home Tab. I don't think it is a part of the standard HTC Sense options. I use it, and it's great.
It is? I love it! I just got my HD2 and installed that cab almost immediately.
If you go through the 'Animated Wallpaper' option, amd select 'All' from the menu you then get all the wallpapers from weather, but without the annoying weather animations - only a small one when the actual weather app updates...
i am using elegancia rom and it has cookie hometab editor and cht editor. but i cannot figure out how to turn off this damn weather animation.. anyone please?

Help needed - Wallpaper won't change

Hi guys,
Do you have any idea as to why my wallpapers won't change?
They change only if I choose animated wallpapers. If I choose weather wallpapers, they won't change at all.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
the weather has to change before a different weather wallpaper is applied!!
If you apply a "weather wallpaper" these are static and not animated - appart from the weather animation.

It doesn't work. The animated ones work, no matter if the weather update or not.
The static ones don't change at all. I have no ideea why.
So you are saying that the weather wallpaper does not animate, like when you unlock the phone or go from the start screen back to the home screen. Have you ever had the weather working (the wallpaper takes the last stored weather data to define the animation to use whether the weather data is currently being updated or not). I'm talking stock ROM without additionally interfaces and apps. Have you installed anything that chan ges the way the phone looks? A hard reset might work.

[Q] Fancy Widget settings ...

How do i get Fancy Widget to display properly in landscape?
you dont buddy. its a glitch and can only be fixed by the developer updating the app. its the reason i gave up on it.
Has anyone found any good weather / clock widgets that display properly? I use ADW or LauncherPro.. I've tried tons of clock widgets, some with weather, but they almost all are distorted. I use Weather and Toggle widget now; it looks okay but just not exactly what I'm looking for. I'd like a nice big clock - 2x4 preferably.

Link HTC clock/weather to 3rd party weather app?

I saw similar questions in other forums, but never an answer - is it possible to link the HTC Sense clock/weather widget so that when you click on the weather portion it links to a 3rd party weather app (i.e. my-cast weather lite) instead of the HTC weather forecast?
I love the HTC widget, but prefer my-cast weather's more detailed weather forecast for seeing in-depth info. Feel silly having the HTC widget and then have to click a separate icon for detailed weather. Would love to consolidate space and have one lead to the other.
Possible?
can't find any way of doing what you want... However Beautiful Widgets does offer that, not just for weather you can have it open different apps when you tap weather icon, date icon or time icon, on they don't have to be specific to what you tap, ie if you tap the weather icon you can have it open your my-cast app or Stupid Zombies or any other app you want it to open.
before the BW haters start beating up the thread, no it's not identical to the Sense weather clock, but it is very similar and unlike the Sense weather clock you don't have to flash a theme/themed ROM to change how it looks, after paying for the app you have access to literally 100's of free themes/skins for the Clock, Weather and Battery icon (can't run battery and weather at the same time).

Thanks for the reply - yeah I didn't think it'd be possible to do this with the native Sense widget, but thought I'd throw it out there to the people who know more than me. Even though I'm running Sense, I think I'll go back to BW, I bought it back when I was with my MT3G so I should still have access. Just would have preferred this funcionality with the sense widget since, although they look very similar, the HTC one is just 'cleaner' and smoother in its operation, i.e. weather animations and clock flipping. But the customizability of BW makes up for that I guess.
Thanks again!
Ok - another question. Figured I'd post it onto this thread instead of starting a new one, hopefully people will check it out...but is there any way to get the HTC weather animation (or a similar effect) WITHOUT having to use the widget? Decided to skip the widget and just keep weather temp in notification bar via my-cast weather. Only thing I'll miss is the animation, which was cool.
the only ways I have found to get the unlock animation is to have either the Sense Weather/Clock or Beautiful Widgets.
EDIT: okay while messing around I did findsomething you might be interested in. If you have BW installed, setup any of the "Home Weather" or "Super Clock" widgets, make sure you check/turn on "unlock animations", save and apply widget. after that even if your remove the widget from your homescreen it will show the unlock animation.
yes, it gets very boring waiting for UAW workers to unload your trailer.
Nice, thanks for the tip! Might be perfect. Will check it out.

Popup widgets from a UCCW widget

I have some widgets made with uccw where the hotspots open popup widgets (as a shortcut). I just tried to make another but now the popup widgets don't open.
Anyone know if there is a problem (perhaps an update I didn't notice) or a setting I have wrong?
