If you like the new weather clock widget of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4 and want to have it on your Galaxy S3, Note, Note 2, S2, etc., you can now have it. XDA member XdroidPerfect has come forward with his modded AccuWeather widget that will replace the original widget found in current Galaxy phones to look like that of Galaxy S4. The mod is so perfect that one cannot point out a difference

The widgets available below have been made by different modders and now they contain the original png files from Galaxy S3′s system dump. So they look more genuine now. Most of the S4 Weather widgets for S2 nd S3 have been modded by dr30ma so all due credits to him.
Note:

Most of these mods work on a deodexed stock-based custom ROMs. Make sure you have it on your phone before attempting to install. To avoid any mishap, do not forget to backup your current ROM in CWM.


For All Android Phones with Deodexed JB ROM:

Galaxy S4 Launcher and AccuWeather Widget

Galaxy S3 Only:

Make sure your phone in on latest rooted stock or a TouchWiz-based custom ROM like Omega, FoxHound, WanamLite, Neat ROM etc. If your phone has older firmware, the mods might not work on it.

1. Copy the zip file to your phone’s internal or external SD Card storage without extracting it.
2. Now boot your phone into ClockWorkMod recovery mode: press and hold Volume Up+Home+Power buttons for about 3-5 seconds.
3. Needless to say, you will have to use the volume and power keys to scroll up or down and select options.
4. Do not forget to backup your current ROM using “backup and restore” option in CWM.
5. Go to “advanced” and “wipe dalvik cache” (do it before and after installation)
6. Now scroll to “install zip from sdcard> choose zip from sdcard“, navigate to the widget file and select it.
7. It will be installed in a few seconds and when it is done, reboot the phone.
8. If your phone is on stock rooted firmware and you do not find the widget after flashing, install a root file explorer and navigate to the system/app folder. Here, you will find the following files: AccuWeatherWidget.odex and AccuWeatherWidget_Main.odex. Copy single/ both the files to the external storage of your device and then delete the original Odex files from the System/app folder. Finally, reboot the phone.

If you still have problem, clear app data from Settings> Application Manager> ALL> after flashing the zip:

Full Flash zip is a full and complete gapps package for your JB 4.2+ ROM. Just flash your ROM.zip and then this one. No need to flash any other gapps packages at all.

Quick Flash zip is a simple zip that installs all the inverted apps by b-boy into their proper places. This should be flashed after your normal gapps package for JB 4.2+.

Update zips are meant for going from the previous version to the newest version without needing to wipe everything. These are only available for minor updates.

I've made a zip with many of B-boy's apps included for easy installation. Please understand, that I've tried my best to make certain that all old apps are removed automatically by the zip, but it isn't possible to get all of them. So, please do yourself a favor and install this on a clean flash so it works properly.
The installation instructions are simple: pick the zip you want, flash it in recovery, then reboot. Do not restore data from your old non-inverted apps. Odexed ROMs are not supported. If you run into any problems, wipe everything and try it from a clean install to make sure it isn't one of your apps playing tricks on you.
