Here's how to get the UNOFFICIAL G4's weather widget on ANY launcher,

including Smart Notice

.

These steps do require paid apps, so as to prevent piracy, I will not provide download links for these apps.

1. Download "Zooper Widget Pro" from the Play Store. *note: it must be PRO to make it work*

2. Download "UX 4.0 G4 for Zooper" from the Play Store.

3. Add a 4x2 Zooper Widget to any home screen.

4. Tap the widget to start.

5. Choose "UX 4.0 by N.A Dev".

6. Scroll down and choose "5x2 UX 4.0 Smart Notice."

7. Widget OnTap Action -> App List -> Weather App

8. Location -> Choose accordingly

9. Global Preferences -> Weather Provider -> Yahoo!

10. Calendar to display -> Deselect all events

... now for the complicated bits. Do follow explicitly.

11. Check the 1st Rich Text (it should be "Rect, W:388 H:192 R:0")

- Tap the pencil edit icon (most top right)

- Module OnTap -> App List -> Weather

12. Check the 2nd Rich Text ("Rect, W:400...")

- Edit

- Module -> Shortcuts -> Activities -> Smart Notice

13. Rich Text: (date, e.g. Monday, 15 June)

- Edit

- X Offset 181, Y Offset -5

- Module -> App -> Calendar

- Edit Text Manually -> Remove what's there and type this in: #DEEEE#, (enter next line) #DMMMM d#

- Lines -> 2

14. Rich Text: (location)

- X Offset -186, Y Offset -30

- Module -> App -> Maps

- Edit text manually -> Remove what's there and type this in: @ #LLOC#, (enter next line) #LCN#

- Lines -> 2

15. Rich Text: (updated on (time))

- Edit text manually -> Remove what's there and type this in: #BSTAT#: #BLEV#, #BTEMP#, #BLEFT#

16. Rich Text: "]"

- Blur 0

17. Add a Rich Text

- X Offset 0, Y Offset 4

- Edit text manually -> Remove what's there and type this in: #WCCOND#

- Size 14

... at least it's over.

18. Go back

19. Turn on Wi-Fi/Data & Location Services (if needed) & Force Update

20. Save

21. Quit Zooper App

22. Go to your home screen and tap "Refresh button".

23. Finally done!!

- Do remember to put Zooper on the Ignore List for any battery or task killer app!

---------------------------------------------------------

FAQ:

- Any battery impacts?

Shouldn't be, so long as you follow the steps correctly.

- What if my weather shows "??" or "Unknown"

Go into the Widget Settings and Force Update

- My location isn't accurate!

Manually tell the widget your location, don't use auto.

- The weather isn't accurate!

For now, there's no choice as it isn't powered by the all mighty Google or AccuWeather.
