Guys, does anyone have an app/widget that can give me the same clock as HTC has on their other phones such as the 8183 and so on?
You know, the one with the flip numbers like the old school clocks?
Also, I would like it to stay on top so that when I press the power on my nexus one, I get to see the clock. My eyesight is pretty poor and I can really see that one.
Thanks
George
Fancy Widget looks like the HTC flip clock. It's "only" a widget, not on the lock screen, though.

I got something called Arti's fancy widget...is that it?
I was told to get the fancy widget but got this one and I don't see how this would work?

I think the widget has been taken out of the android market, due to HTC complaints.
you can see if you can get it from the author site

Thanks but I can't find a link to download or something...besides, I don't know how to install it if I download it through the computer even if I did find it.
THanks

it's pissing me off to know it's not updating when I have it on auto update. My temp went down 3 degress over the last hour and a half and the phone is still showing the old temp from that time. How do I fix this problem?
It's just a piece of **** and poorly coded. Never updates for me either.

Damn this sucks...The twitter app is a POS also since it doesn't auto update either.
well if no one post a fix for this by the time I wake up i'll just buy Beautiful Widgets. At least it looks close enough to HTC's widget and it actually works.
Twitter app doesn't auto update? Mine does. Widget doesn't really update until you go to it, but that's not much of a grievance. I mostly use it to update and not to look at updates, so that's fine.
Try Twidroid. I have PRO and personally, prefer the Peep widget to Twidroid widget, but it's still a great program.

yeah I also prefer peep over twinroid. I just want peep to update with out me clicking on it.
Oh by the way I bought the beautiful widget and it's way better then HTC's stock widget. Just kills it and it works.
Really? Well, I may have to check that out then. In the market?
in the market but I need to take my words back after screwing with it more. Where the **** does that app get it's temperature readings from? because the temp for the following days seem crazy and off compared to HTC's and my local news website.
Oh okay. Lol. Ah well.. the HTC widgets are fine for me anyway.
had to play with the zip codes a little and I got it correct so app is good. But would like to use the HTC app since that's what came with it. Also if you look hard enough you can tell the the apps clock looks a little different from HTC's clock.

Better yet, the HTC Desire.
And I wouldn't call Android the "dark side". Android's future looks pretty bright
(and no matter what anyone tries to make you believe, the iPhone is a joke, don't waste your money on that - if you want something more "iphoneish" than the HD2, but much much better than an actual iPhone, get the Desire/Nexus One)
Your keyboard problem could be ROM related. What ROM version are you running? Make sure you have at least the official 1.66 ROM.

Just wondering if everyone else running a sense 3 official ROM has this.
When you load up the app drawer from the homescreen has anyone else noticed that there appears to be a thin line/border down each side of the list, which im sure wasnt there in sense 2.1. Is this normal or have i flashed my RAM incorrectly. So just wondering if any of you other guys also have this little border down both sides. If everyone has this, is it means to to be there? Does the sensation also have it (being as it is running sense 3.0)
Also. What happened to the car mode (Car panel) that used to give you the big buttons.
Instead it now has "dock mode" which when you load it looks nothing like the car panel used to. Have they got rid of it?
Hi. I have updated to sense 3.0 from 2.1 OTA. I can confirm that the bars on the sides of the app drawer are meant to be there. It's the new design and I have also seen it present on other peoples desire s' with sense 3.0. As for the car panel, I'm not sure as I've never used that feature because I don't drive.
Hope I helped

The car panel is now included in socations´s premium navigation, not a stand alone app anymore. This is a very very great ****, because you have to pay for premium navi . The problem now is, when you plug in into the original htc car holder, there appears a message you should buy pn and you have no chance to autostart an other car dock app. so i should pay once again for something i just paid, just for using it.
I wrote to htc´s support and said, i dont´s accept this! HTC should send me a fix for this problem or they should give me back the money for the original car holder, or thes should give me a free abonnement for premium navigation. They wrote back, they send this to the HTC developers. it´s not ok so
Hi,
After noticing that ICS has owner info on the lock screen I thought about it and decided to edit my lock screen wallpaper.
Since it is a transparent image, it shows whatever launcher wallpaper I have underneath.
What is a suitable ammount of information to put on this?
I have attached a screen shot of my current effort.
Thanks.
It's all about personal preference to be honest. Whatever amount you feel comfortable with, is the right amount for you.
I, for example, have nothing but a wallpaper and unlock slider.

Just put your name, address, and e-mail
It will help you if you lost your phone...D
Or you can write everything that come to your mind
I was kind of wondering if putting home address on lock screen info was advised?

I personally wouldn't suggest having your address on there. Maybe just name, email and another contact number incase you lose it, someone will know to contact you on the backup number.
But it's all about what info you feel comfortable having on there really.

like how our dogs only have name and phone numbers on their tags as they advised against addresses at puppy pre-school.

Yeah exactly. Having an address on there could be more risky, in my opinion.

I would just keep it simple, with the text:
If found, call **********, thank you
Then you will be able to give the finder your adress or something.
I just have a message on my splash screen:
Put a weather widget too.
P.S. Don't give too much info about yourself.
I ended up sticking with the screen shot in the first post :good:
The simple the best!!!
I like it very simple...
Hour
Time
City
But I agree that at least it would be good to avoid putting personal information on it
Music control
Personally I just put a beautiful wallpaper, with hour, the weather (with icon and small text) and music app control whih is very useful when I use Spotify in transport for example.

Mind telling how to get an unlock slider on ICS??
I kinda don't like that ring design much.....
Hey guys,
My apologies if this is in the wrong section.
I was hoping someone could tell me/direct me to a unlock screen launcher or theme or something.
The unlock screen of my phone (Xperia Arc S 4.0) is incredibly ugly. I like having my phone protected though, usually by a 4 digit code or something but (call me ridiculous) the fact that I need to unlock my phone on this incredibly ugly unlock screen really puts me off the whole thing.
Basically what im looking for is to replace the digit lock screen with a different one (pattern is not worth it since its too easily guessed).
Is there any way I could make the screen which unlocks my SIM (which looks nice) unlock my phone too?
The best of course would be something like that but with out having to press OK at the end. (A bit like on the iFail where when you type the passcode correctly it unlocks with out making you press ok)
If anyone knows of something like this I would really appreciate a link or the name of the app or so.
Thanks!
