The 30 minute interval only applies to automatic widget updates, as
specified in your widget_info.xml
Your code can update a widget at any time by first calling
AppWidgetManager.getInstance(), then using a ComponentName that
represents your widget class to update either all your widgets at once,
or one by one (two versions of AppWidgetManager.updateAppWidget).
This code can be placed anywhere, not necessarily in your
AppWidgetProvider sublclass. However, remember that AppWidgetProvider is
a subclass of BroadcastReceiver, so you can set it up to receive other
events (such as periodic broadcast intents from the AlarmManager).

Use a timer in your service, or an Alarm Manager. Timer is appropriate
for short durations, while Alarm Manager is preferable used for longer
durations between the updates.

Hi,
I know that an appwidget cannot refresh it with an interval minor of
30 minutes.
But in internet I have read something about a workaround using a
system timer.
Someone know this workaround? Or someone know how can I do to set a
refresh rate minor?
I'm developing a kind of clock. There are many clock widget in the
market, and I think that there is a solution otherwise this kind of
widget would not exist because they need a refresh rate of at least 1
minute.
Thanks
