Clock in taskbar cab? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hey,
Sorry if there has been posts on this subject already but I was wondering if there was a cab to put a clock in the taskbar? This would be useful as when you're not on the home screen you can't see the time
Thanks

Yes mate - it's native functionality, so you don't need a cab or 3rd party app.
Go to the settings tab, menu, all settings, clock & alarms, more (tab).
There's an option in there to display the clock in the title bar in all apps.
Hope that helps

Thanks for the replies
Never knew about the built in clock feature but that gives the problem that you can't see the battery, which is kinda annoying cause there's plenty of room for them both!

The BattClock can do all at one time!
You can additionally add the date/free memory in a third row, give various colors for battery states and so on...

Perfect app!!! thanks for share.

Transparent?
I was thinking... can you make it transparent in edges? or something.. Its not a problem when you use the phone, but if you lock it(turn off the screen) and open it again(in lock mode) you can see the edges of it.. a bit sad but anyway nice app!

Use the config (icon in main start menu) and use X (horisontal) Y (vertical) to move it

..
well its not it... THe background when you are in the start menu and such, is going up to the screen edge, not to the edge where the clock, battert etc are.

Not sure if I know what you're talking about or if you even made a try, it works fine here and does not overlay anything after I moved it using the config.

This is such a great thing, not turning back now.

Okay, that's working well... but I use DJC Taskbar Leo 6.5 with this very nice round battery icon... and I would like to have both - battery + clock, but this battery icon + clock... any ideas?

Are there any alternatives to using Battclock and Dutty's taskbar mods? I don't like how battclock has a background that masks over the stock icons, and has to adjust to the changing colors. I also don't want the icons sets used in Dutty's mod. I just want to see stock batt icon and stock clock in the taskbar. Like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is it possible to add this mod to stock ROM? Or is it only availible for custom ROMs?

There seems to be no way to put both clock and battery unless you flash a ROM so can someone please make a toggle switch instead for clock and battery? It will be useful to have clock when using apps and you know you have a charged battery. It is just too many clicks to get to the Clock settings if you want it to show.

Moved to the Q&A section
It could be an Ultimate Launch setup with custom Icons, but I have no way to know for sure what exactly that is on that device in the picture. Perhaps the person you got the picture from would be better suited to answer this question.
i created this image in adobe, those images on the bottom is from " Nokia", i made that just to have a demo.
i was looking for a touch pad on the bottom like in that picture, for easy access to your fav. application
is there an application which allow you to make a short cut menu on the bottom like this picture shown???? plz reply
thanks
if you used Ultimate Launch you could create icons in tabs to have as many shortcuts as you'd like

if you look at this (the one circled) is what i exactly i am looking for
you can use ultimate launch, have 1 tab, this one tab will not contain anything but icons, and the size of the whole UL plugin will be as many pixels as you like. you WONT have to show headers so all you will see is what you're looking for.
Ultimate Launch is highly customizable. Just play around with it and you will see. I use it and love it. It will surely be on my device for as long as I have it.\
have you checked out the HTC Home plugin? If not, then maybe that will give you what you are looking for. Also check out HTC Home Customizer (HHC) to make it nicer to your liking

but got a question, those images are those editable? also the short cut also customizable? because if am able to add my images on those HTC Home Sprint.. it would be awsome, cuz nokia images are pretty kool..
you can use whichever icons you like, use whichever header icons you like...
you can pretty much do whatever the hell you like

i am now after finding out, how to edit the icons and the short cut of "Sprint HTC Home Plug in", if i could get some help replacing the orig. sprint icons also the short cut, since am not using HTC cube or HTC album, those short cuts are useless, i tried the Ultimate L. which takes lot of main window space.

What about MaxTTM? Been around for ages (on the HD Themes forum), but it's just as good now as the day it was invented, and I continue to use it for all my transparency needs along with current mods like CHT without any issue at all. It's fab honest - give it a go (it looks daunting at first, but becomes second nature and I use it with ease when flashing a new rom about once a week). Once installed - INSTAL TO SD CARD, NOT DEVICE - open it, and select WM6.5 tab at bottom, then check all 3 boxes, TRefresh, Soft Reset and hey presto, transparent taskbar and softkey bar:

I got all excited when i loaded the MaxTTM and done exactly what you said but the bars didnt go transparent ? the top bar went white and the bottom bar went grey? any further help would be gratefull
DONE IT !! please ignor above post, I had another tinker and it worked like a charm, thanks Sb
i have a better solution
I hate to chime in late here, but wisbar advance 4 does what you want with no configuring.
(its in beta right now, but worth a look trust me been using WB for over 4 years now)
OH and to do the changing of the wallpaper I use antworks auto wallpaper changer. not only does it do the wm6.5 wallpaper but the manila, and s2u2, and the lock screen as well. AND you can specify seperate folders for landscape and portrait AND there is a timed wallpaper change option.
TRUST ME
WBA4 - install and your good to go. http://lakeridgesoftware.com/
and antworks wp changer - one click and your wallpaper is changed. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=557248
golden with transparent top and bottom bars. no faxing around with all this and that like you gotta do with the other "fullscreen wallpaper apps"
k enough ranting.

ok here is one last one...kinda a joke
this is to shut up all the sprint guys about their 4g (although it really isn't available anywhere worthwhile anyways)
However, I do feel sorry for all the sprint guys. Sprint has had the WORST phone selection from day one. They didn't have any bluetooth capable phones until 2004, even Cricket had them covered until the evo came out.
Welcome to 2010 sprint!
(note. not really 4g, just replaced the 3g .pngs)

looks good, maybe make the clock background square?

and is it possible to change the black to the real desire status bar black?
because when i install it it's only black, not the colors like on the desire where the color is a little bit changing?
like at this status bar for android 2.1?

has someone the original status bar just to have a chance to revert this?
edit: looks nice.. the downside is only that i can not read any status messages now (new mail.. sms preview text)..
Is there a way to remove the clock completely? i have a big widget for this so i do not need the clock there..?

Launcher Pro removes the entire notification bar for you if you like. When you press Menu it brings it down for you to see your messages or time 3g status etc. Pretty neat.

but i'm pretty sure you need the source...
This topic is great and now I can use froyo. The clock was the only thing we can't change until we get source code. How again do we change the notification icon colorsin froyo?
This is a very nice trade off to use in the mean time.
ogdobber, thank you so much for this, i can now enjoy froyo as my full time ROM!

remove clock from notification bar-how do i?

been trying to figure this out. i really want to remove the clock from the notification bar on top--i hate seeing to clocks on my phone. i don't need to see the clock ever on the notifcation bar.
any way to remove it? i don't want to theme my whole phone, just the clock.
i've been searching at came up with nothing. thank in advance!
guess its not possible huh.
Been waiting on this one myself... I really see no purpose of having 2 clocks on the homescreen. I really DONT need it there at all.
I wouldn't mind reclaiming that chunk off notification bar space myself.
Posted by my rooted EVO 4G
closest option would be to use Launcher Pro, it can hide the notification bar altogether on the home screens.. this will eliminate having to see two clocks on the home screen and you can still tap menu to peak at the notification bar when needed
this was done on the hero and i do not see why it cannot be done on the evo as well? id also like a vanilla lockscreen with no text. hopefully a dev can sort this out.
It can be done, just no one has done it. I removed the battery icon from my taskbar because I use vader's battery droid widget. I also removed the GPS disabled icon because I see no point in showing an icon for something that is off. I'll poke around and see if I can find the damn clock.

Unfortunately simply removing the battery pngs only removes the battery icon, it doesn't shift the icons over Anyone know how to completely remove it from the task bar? (and no I don't want an entire custom ROM for this) I suppose while we're at it remove the clock as well from the otification bar as several people would like that as well.
Anyone figure this out yet??
As someone above posted, the CM nightly will do as you ask.

Yes, but it still won't allow 2x1, 3x1 and so on, so I have to add multiple 1x1, but I don't know if multiple 1x1 don't take more resources than single 4x1?

Thank you very much, this app is so usefull.. love it!
Funny, why at all is it not allowing portrait 4x1 widget?
Hi
Nice widget!! Good work!
One question: Is there a possibility to change the icons of the chosen programs within the widget? That way I could customize the look of every icon.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

Can we add shortcuts for folders or may be in next version ?
Excellent app. Thank you very much.
Only request I would have is for more horizontal configurations by "default" (instead of stinging along a bunch of 1x1). Anyhow, very nice app, freed up a ton of space and improved the appearance of my home screens.
I agree with the horizontal configuration. One other thing I think would be nice is if the icon you select would highlight like the regular icons.
To "" - Awesome application. Everything is OK, but.. Can add icons automaticly, not one by one? I have more than 100 little icons on just one screen, and add every one of them is much time eating Samo function, that add all installed applications would be very high rated.
