Hi, I just tried to enable the weather animation from [MENTION=540886]lesscro[/MENTION] 's source. But soon, I found the format on my device is not compatible, so I resize the resolution from 1920X1080 to 1040X720 by MeGUI ver. 2507 . It means I resize the video from 1080p to 720p

And now it shows smoothly . I hope this will help who got low end device like me :)

put it in /system/media/weather/

Here's the download page : Google Drive

Device : Lenovo a820

Resolution : qHD (960X540)
[Android Apps and Games] lesscro:
Thx i will download and add low res version on my host...

cheers

Anything is ok, nice, no problem on HOX. Waiting blinkfeed sense 7. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] jwchen119:
I found that I resize the video to an non standard resolution lol. It should be 1280X720 instead of 1080X1040

I'll upload new 720P resolution later :)

From an HTC ROM. But it won't open from BlinkFeed when installed because it either requires modification or additional framework elements from HTC Sense.
[Android Apps and Games] jwchen119:
OK, [MENTION=540886]lesscro[/MENTION]

This is the 720P version of weather animation for low end device . Enjoy it! :D

Don't think HTC will add in support for Weather Clock Widgets for now but maybe in near future.

There's another update - HTC Sense Home 8.01.784218 dated July 21

No time to test it yet but maybe this one fix the Google+ error

Owhh ok.. 4x2, i can confirm not working either, i already try call apk sense home 8,
[Android Apps and Games] tropical cactus:
The beta still seems to be our best option. Thanks for testing it out.
[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
That's weird ... I don't have S6E to test now but I tested it on my old Galaxy Tab 7

The plugins and theme worked except the built-in Google+

Edit : in your above screenshot for the blinkfeed, I see the arrow icon (slightly hidden under the Camera icon) to activate blinkfeed is not pressed yet (I maybe wrong)
[Android Apps and Games] :
You are correct, it was pressed around 300 times [emoji12]
[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
300 times :( ? I would press twice only if it doesn't work for the first time ....

Tested on S6E ... the rest are working as previous released and still built-in Google+ plugin not working (at least for me)

[MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] i have the htc 10, using the sense launcher i see theres no way to get googleplus and twitter feeds in blinkfeed by default. Usinv the twitter pluggin from op works but googleplus plugin doesnt work, i thought that a htc device would be able to install the plugin but it doesn't appear so, is tht right?
[Android Apps and Games] combat goofwing:
I noticed there's an Instagram for htc sense apk,installs no problem and the option comes up I n blinkfeed,but then I get error ,not comparable with this device (nexus 6P) is there a missed version that works please
[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
Using the stock Sense Launcher and updated from Play Store ? I don't have a 10 but I can see in the 10 dump (1.80.401.1) there are Twitter & Google+ plugins. They should work out of the box.

Google+ plugin on OP won't work due to signature checking I guess .. I used to have the same error as OP when I signed the file. It worked only on original signature. If your device is rooted (as shown in your signature), you can try the old one that I have here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58079247&postcount=1662

Sense 7 clock widgets

I've managed to get weather clock widgets and weather animations to work in sense 8. Must be the phone. :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] combat goofwing:
How so ,are you rooted?
[Android Apps and Games] tropical cactus:
Ya, like the time I extracted the small sense 8 clock widget from an HTC rom. It worked with sense 7 on my phone for some reason but when I shared it here, a lot of people tried but no one could get it to work. I even had to post a video. So, it must be my OPPO Find 7.;)
[Android Apps and Games] gustav30:
Hey can you post the steps you took to get weather and widgets working? I realize it might just be your phone but I want to give it a shot. I looked back a few pages and didn't find a post that outlined what you did. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] tropical cactus:
Um, I've lost track of what I did. Tried this, tried that. I even managed to get the play update when I Googled sense 8 to install but then everything went haywire after that. I wouldn't recommend anyone try that. I say it's the phone because I can't explain it. ;) I've bricked it before. It just died, no vibration, sound, kaput, dead. However, we have an unbrick method for this phone so I still have 8 lives to go. :fingers-crossed:

Miss my M7.
[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

You can try weather.apk from Sense 8 should work fine but not so much different from Sense 7 one.

You also can try to install WeatherClockWidgets.apk from Sense 8 ... it will either work nicely or maybe you don't have clock & location only weather icon & date.

(depends on device)

all above just install as normal apk, you can uninstall it anytime that you want.

Sense 8 WeatherClockWidgets looks nicer (my personal opinion) but there is no day/night (white/black) 4x1 weather clock (as in your screenshot), only the transparent one.
[Android Apps and Games] tropical cactus:
Ya, there's a duplicate of the small sense 8 clock widget. The downside is the sense 7 widgets don't have the location icon and location not in capitals. I want to scratch that itch. :p
[Android Apps and Games] MadDogMaddux:
OK, so I installed this and never got the HTC Clock to appear on the Blinkfeed page - which was one of my favorite features.

I'm running HTC 10 wit Venom 10 on it.

Second issue (more important) I installed the Dark Venom theme and it overwrote the Sense 6 files. My bad for that, but now I can't get the Sense 6 files to install.

Does anyone know the specific location to push these on the HTC 10, or another fix for my issue? Thanks.

Only those apks that come after the beta will work on non htc devices. They are all 480 dpi.
[Android Apps and Games] ahhl:
after checking buildprop, i discover my lcd density indeed 480, but why i have FC??
[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
You can install the apks from that link but whether they are working or not on your device is another thing .. only you can find out. I know booster+ and weather apk should work, the rest not so sure.

When you installed Sense Home 8 version 8.01.xxxxxxx, WeatherClock widget won't work due to lack of widget support in that particular Sense Home 8, you'll get "widget loading problem"

Anyway you can try either Sense 8 or 7 WeatherClockWidget to confirm the loading problem.
[Android Apps and Games] :
None.

The weather apk linked here doesn't work, clicking the weather just takes you to web link.

I'm using the sense 8 beta on a moto e 2nd gen running marshmallow (CM13) I've found if I try to install any other HTC apps the home app becomes very unstable.

I'm just following recommended guidelines, if running sense 8 beta on a non HTC phone, no other HTC apps are needed.
[Android Apps and Games] jazzespresso:
you need to re-sign the Sense 8 apps, then install, that's why

First open-device stable build of Sense 8. It appeared on xda labs.

No one (including me) is saying its not good to help anyone, and if you look at my past posts, I'm also happy to help anyone, but there's a limit we must keep to, and I'm not being mean, I'm just making a point.

I've just scrolled back 6 pages of this thread and that very question has been asked and answered on five of those pages.

I asked a week ago if the first post and installation instructions could be changed to included the newer sense 8 home beta, for the very reason lots of new users want to try sense out.

But if people really cannot abide by forum rules (and one of those rules is no one should make a new post unless they have used the XDA search function to see if their question has already been asked)

Someone has to say STOP and ask the question ONCE AGAIN if it is possible to change the 1st post to include sense 8 home beta and the installation instructions so new users can continue to enjoy sense home.

Is that really being mean to anyone?

I don't think so, and I ask people to do the correct thing and use XDA search before posting questions that have been answered many times in this thread already.

If someone wishes to help someone with a question, they are entitled to continue doing it over and over again. What I would recommend is if someone asks the question and a post exists with the answer to it, just put a link into the particular post.

chill man

yea i saw that posting many page back saying this is stand alone package

well

i've tried with and without htc service pack. but it still doesnt work. beta nondpi version that i have tried, i manage to run it but once i try to go to new page (i.e first page) it just FC

not my luck may be. or probably i need to clear dalvic/cache and try again :(

i have capture catlog. anylink to upload to developer?

still does not work after clear dalvic.
[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
Oh ... HTC Sense Home 8.14.772696 - that's not for non-htc device - only for htc devices running Sense 8 Marshmallow like HTC 10 as example.

To run on non-htc devices or on non-Sense 8 ROM like GPE ROM (still a htc device),

it needs some modification/edit on smali.

I have it running on GPE after some modding on it.

To clear up some confusions based on current versions :

1. Sense Home 8.01.xxxxxx - it's for non-HTC device, no need other stuff like HTC Service pack and plugins to run. The 4x1 transparent clock widget is the only HTC widget available

2. Sense Home 8.13.xxxxxx - it's for HTC device running Sense 6/7 on Lollipop and above and it needs service pack and plugins to run.

3. Sense Home 8.14.xxxxxx - it's for HTC device running Sense 8 on Marshmallow only (at the moment as there is no Android N yet) and it needs service pack and plugins.

Item 2 & 3 are the reason why this thread exist - the dev mod/edit the apk to make it work on non-htc device .. that's why the thread is on Android Development and Hacking section

(unfortunately we don't see any update from OP due to his other commitments)

Item 1 is stock non-modified apk. The reason why it doesn't go on OP (the first page) due to no development or hacking been done to this apk. Developer won't simply download a stuff from other site and place it on his thread as his developed/hacked app.

But anyone (not necessarily a developer) can open a new thread for this if he wants to .. but usually limited in device section, not in development & hacking section.

No framework edit, the Sense Home apk itself using some codes taken from [MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION] modded Sense Home apk (of course with permission as I released the modded Sense Home with my GPE ROM for public).

You can do the same for personal use, just make comparison of the original Sense Home and xpirt Sense Home ... it just that some smali are in different locations in Sense Home 8. If successful and you intend to release for public, ask permission from xpirt first (releasing without permission is kanging and not allowed by Forum Rules)

[Android Apps and Games] ckpv5:
Tried ... same as previous release, only one 4x1 weather clock widget. No Sense Home widget and built-in G+ still broken
[Android Apps and Games] tropical cactus:
July 29 beta out. No change. I have a feeling that this is as good as it gets and HTC will not be adding other features like home widget and weather clocks.

I remember during the Desire days, HTC succumbed to pressure for an android version update (can't remember which one, perhaps museum curator ck might know :-p) and gave one minus a lot of features.
[Android Apps and Games] ici:
With the help of xpirt's original code, July 29 beta (8.01.788149) can work with htc weatherclock widget now. See picture shown here. Give a try if you have interest. The credit belongs to xpirt.

ps: weatherclock widget is HtcWeatherClockWidget - v7.0.497815, moded by xpirt
[Android Apps and Games] tropical cactus:
Thanks. I already have weather widgets working on sense 8. Have you been able to link weather animation to the weather clock on Blinkfeed screen? If only someone can get home widget to work on sense 8. I thought I had it going when my home address appeared when setting location. However, when I tried to set work location it just froze.
