What's your favourite Weather app? - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Been having a bit of trouble with the stock Samsung Accuweather widget updating lately so I've decided to broaden my horizons.
I'm looking for one that when I disable automatic updates, won't cause massive wakelocks etc and ofc it must be beautiful.
What weather app would u recommend and why?

Beautiful widgets.. has loads of themes and has htc-like unlock animations

I think Fancy Widjet is the best.......

Palmary weather pro, great prediction, flawless design.

yup couldn't agree more.. palmary weather is simply the best weather app..

Try this app called Weatherwise

This is nice! I'll give it a try.
The stock weather widget on the GS3 looks nice as well. Installed it on my GS2 .

Palmary seems nice although I am a Beweather Pro user for quite some time now.

For me is Fancy Widgets and Weather Pro the perfect combination....

Sense alternative widgets?

Hi peeps. Quick question. I'm not having huge luck with kingdom builds. My phone is having overall performance issues so I'm thinking about go back to the aosp side with cm7. However, I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for widgets and themes to give my aosp phone that sense look and experience. The main widgets I'm looking for would be the super clock with weather, preferably with weather animations, the big weather widget, friend stream and the people widget. I have beautiful widgets for the toggles and whatnot, wondering if there is something with a nicer clock though.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

LauncherPro Plus has a bunch of widgets that are similar to the Sense widgets.

Beautiful widgets is (IMO) the best replacement for Sense weather. Actually, I like it better due to the 4x1 widget. Fancy Widget is good too. But i'm curious why you don't like BW.
Launcher Pro Plus is the closest I've found for the rest of the widgets.

Fancy Widgets. Very nice app!
I have looked all over for a scrollable email widget like sense. I mostly use adw if that matters. Anyone know of one?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
no email widgets.. I've looked as well. Launcher pro + Fancy Widgets is my favorite combo.
^yeah heard launcher pro has nice widgets
On my CM7 setup, I use a combination of BeautifulWidgets and LauncherPro with the LPSense skin found here: LauncherPro Glass Sense skin.
Thank you all for the suggestions. Will hit them up when i get tired of synergy

Not to step on toes but....get BW then add superclock 4X2 to your homescreen. When you do that it will bring you to the setting screen for the widget. Look through clock skins till you find the one you want(not sure which one he's using) download and apply. Then look through weather skins and do the same. Many, many choices. My clock is also BW.

Where can I get the gs2 widgets, I really miss that clock and weather widget.
I didn't make any of this
But I'm too damn lazy to find links to post here (I looked real hard to find these app)
Digital clock: http://db.tt/UNdybGmP
I got from an older thread from the et4g and the slightly modified to remove the white borders the original uploader added
Weather widget 4x1 only: http://db.tt/6VlhnOQQ
Only 4x1 works every other size doesn't work
Also its not HD (image attached is Mich lower quality then actual)
Can some download the system dump of the gs2 hd lte and upload the clock and the weather widget from there.
with that we can get more appropriate widgets for our phone

cant wait to try em out... and yeah the HD LTE GS2 versions would definitely be choice assuming they are not like our S3s...

is the weather widget included with calendar or is that another widget? I'm trying to find a transparent calendar widget like that.
also i like the live weather wallpaper that is preinstalled, but i am annoyed by the "Weather information, Accuweather, yadda, yadda.." text on the top left.. they really ruined the wallpaper.

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there was a widget that would only display the weather, animated preferred. As you can see in my screen shot, I already have a clock and weather as well as the windy weather wallpaper. What I'm hoping to end up with is a widget that i can place over the clock face to have animated clouds scroll by. Back in the day, I had an iPhone with the htc animated weather tweak. It had clouds scrolling and had other weather animations, I want this back. Any one have any ideas? Thanks

Beautiful Widgets have the option to get the animations as soon as you unlock your phone... You can set the duration to whatever you want and you can get clock with weather clock by itself or just weather by itself

Ive tried that but I dont like how it stops the second you touch your screen. I want it to be a continuous animation like the iPhone animated htc clock and weather with perpages html widget tweak. Do you know if that tweak with those animations has been ported to android?

Idk to be honest if that's available for android but I will tell you if it is possible you'll probably get major lag and battery drain..

Touchwiz Weather Widget clones?

Anyone know of a Touchwiz weather clone that will work on AOSP? I know you can flash the the TW launcher and weather widgets to AOSP now, but I like using launchers like Apex Or nova.... Any suggestions? Looking for a widget that changes the background of the widget as the weather changes...
Thanks!
Yeah download UCCW and a theme or skin like gs4 or gs3 style weather widget

Yeah I think I tried that, but they don't really update link the actual widget do they? I mean, if it's raining, I like how the widget has rain drops within it... Not trying to be picky, but wondering if there's anything like that out there
Oh I see. Well I know that go weather has themes that actually change with the weather but they don't look like touch wiz. Some are better.

You can flash the s4 launcher. Doesn't work on touchwiz roms from my experience but works flawlessly on aosp ROMs. There's a thread here in the apps and games forum that links you to the official thread

Thanks for the info, but at the same time, it's not what I was looking for. There's no way to get that particular widget on another launcher like Nova... Nova is way more customizable and looks much better than TW in my opinion. I tried to give Nova root (Which apparently isn't necessary anymore on JB) and still can't insert that widget. Oh well, thanks anyways
