I currently use 1 Weather.

Yeah, there are some very good weather widgets out there, the idea behind this is to keep the look of the Original Weather widget in our phones, I was one of them that would love to keep it but I wanted to use Nova, so I gave up the widget for Nova, so having something very similar for me is like having the best of both worlds.

PLUS, for some strange reasons that I can't figure it out yet, since I switched to Xwidget and this Weather widget, my Battery life has increased A LOT, check in other threads where I've posted the information but in a summary, for the past 3 days counting today (Since I switched) I've been getting an average of 8 hours on Sunday, 7 yesterday and averaging almost 7.5 - 8 hours of SoT today, an increase of more than an hour on each day with exact same usage of the past month. Only thing different has been switching to this, weird uhh?

Just to add a little to my previous post, here it is.

Like I've mentioned already since I switched to the Xwidget and the widget similar to the original weather widget, I've been getting incredible battery life, very similar to the Xperia Z3 that for me, is the best battery life on any Android device right now.

Before I was getting 5.5 - 6 hours of SoT on weekdays with my Android wear and Bluetooth connected basically all day, and 6.25 - 6.5 hours on weekends, where I just use the Android wear 3 or 4 hours at most. Now for 3 days in a row is been getting, 8.25 on Sunday, about 7 hours yesterday and today 7.5 hours of SoT on average, as you can see in the screen shots below, same settings and usage than the previous 40 days since I got the phone, again, only thing changed has been replacing the weather widget, so what about some of you trying this to see if you have the same results. If you are interested check the threads about the weather widgets.

Great find. I'm using this right now and feel right back at home with the TouchWiz clock, using Nova.

Well, to be honest, I don't even remember what version of this I was using at the time of this thread 4 months ago, I uploaded the one I'm using now, it should be similar.

Just follow the same link on the first post, it should allow you to download the new zip file.

That's part of a Theme, I can't really remember the name now, but should still be there, it's one of the first themes that were released.

I found out the name of the theme, it's called Night Bridge.
