For the first time in 5 years i banged out an android app, and here it is Digiweb broadband usage indicator.
It fetches your broadband usage and displays it as a widget on home screen. Fairly basic, but does the job nicely.

As most developers have found out, appwidgets break the normal rules when it comes to widget development.
Due to the abstract class ( appwidgetProvider ) and the updating through RemoteViews
You’re quite limited in the use of the different layout controls that are available.
namely :
So how do we get a table layout, that automatically expands or fills the available space?
The answer is clever use of of the weight attributes of linearLayout and the children components.
Here is an example of a timetable.
9 – 6 / Mon – friday.
Note* i have an image up the top right, you may wont to replace this with something else!
Scroll to the end for an example on how to loop through the cells

Given the following tutorial on creating Custom Toast Notifications.

They neglect to say how to do it from a service!
