Big Digital Clock Today plugin

Ok, maybe this is a silly question But I'm wondering if there is a Today plug-in with a clock like the HTC Home one, something like this:
I'm only keeping the Home plugin for the clock right now, but a separate Today clock would be the best. Maybe not as big, but if it was skinnable it would be nice
If there are many plugins that do this, which do you recommend?
Thanks for the help!

you can try the samsung clock - not as big as home though

or try BatteryStatus with a nice Theme

I second that, you can also give rlToday a shot with the different options, there is a long thread with many configurations.

What is this app?

Saw this in a youtube vid cyanogen tweeted last nice... what is that nice looking launcher/dock on the homescreen there?

It's called More Icons Widget. You can get a free or paid version

It's not More Icons. It's a modded Launcher2.

Where can you find this modded Launcher2? That's what I thought it was but I couldn't find it here on XDA...

of course it's here on XDA... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649475 and it's built-into CM 5.0.6 test 1

Thanks for the reply, I'm actually using CM 5.0.6 test 1 -- I wasn't referring to the app drawer in the video (I already have that and love it!) Was just referring the small icons on the home screen. I think nDrg was right, it could be "More Icons" --- not nearly as slick as I hoped

I was looking at it, and it cannot be more icons widget because that widget offers you 2 lines of icons smaller, but on the video you get 1 line with 8 icons.
Any idea?

you can add icons to just one row...its not that hard.

I got it, there is an option to assign icon to the config button and use one row.
Thanks

i have the 5 columns in the scrollable menu, but it won't turn 180 on rotation, either in the scrollable menu, or on home screens.
any help?

[Darchdroid v2] Themes, launchers and other add-ons

I created this thread so not to clutter the ROM thread with verbiage of add-ons. Thank you so much Darchstar for a great ROM !!
!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684202 ( ROM LINK )
Now that we have a great (AOSP ) ROM for our Hero’s, we can start sharing themes, launchers and many other add-ons that work and have been tested on the Darchdroid v2 ROMS. Hopefully this thread will grow.
Being the first I would like to share that LauncherPro Beta ( can be downloaded from the market ) . This launcher is great and very fast .. almost 100% customizable and can be set to have up to 7 screens …

screen shots of launchpro beta at work..

Agreed on launcherpro.. I was using helixlauncher at first but launcherpro seems faster.
Anyone find any themes that play nice? I have tried 2 so far and got boot loops on both.

As for launchers I'm partial to ADW Launcher for Darch's rom. It's quick and very customizable which is the best part. Has the froyo taskbar look with 2 customizable main shortcuts and an app drawer for additional apps. Also gives the nifty swipe left to right for the main app drawer ala iphone, and the SenseUI style jump out screen preview.
My favorite feature by far though is the ability to hide the notification bar. Gives a really nice way to show off your wallpaper, especially since you can set it so the home button shows and hides it again so you can still check it.
http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/category/adwlauncher/
EDIT : Also a question for everyone else.. is it possible to get the rotary lock on darchdroid? When the update comes out I'm probably gonna see if the metamorph for it will do it but I doubt it :/

Anyone check out Beautiful Live Wallpaper. Runs great on Darchdroid.

My setup....

They have a weather skin called none to clear out the images on the widget so you dont always have 2 suns or 2 moons...I dont know if you really care but it irritated me having the repeating image.

How would a user go about using MetaMorph and this rom?

I dont know about a message widget but I'm fond of the pop up for hand cent.
Also I want a good calendar too and maybe a better alarm clock.

Sensation Homescreens - post your here too

I somehow always thinks it's nice to see others homescreens, and maybe get some inspiration from it. So feel free to show off
So you're basically saying that you can make a screenshot if the phone is rooted?! Really makes sense
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yea, don't really need to root it to be able to take a screenshot. There are alot of apk's available for taking screenshots
I'm using MyPhoneExplorer for taking screenshots (doesn't require rooting).
Link to app for PC (Windows):
http://www.fjsoft.at/en/downloads.php
Link to client (install on phone):
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.fjsoft.myphoneexplorer.client&feature=search_result
Works great via USB, didn't try over Bluetooth or WiFi (don't need right now).
To connect Android Phone, after install on Your PC, in Options, select "Device with Google Android OS" instead of "Sony Ericsson Phone with modem interface".
To take screenshot, go to "Additional" and select "Upload screenshot". Small window will appear, where You can see what Your phone actually displays, click on "Save as..." and You're done!
This app is powerfull to sync all data with Outlook, send SMS from Your PC, install *.apk applications from Your PC, make backups and stuff...

Try this

How did you get that tool bar at the bottom? Are you using a different Launcher than Sense 3.0?

What's MME? Is it in market? Thx.

Just use the damn SDK to take a screenshot. Not exactly hard is it...

My Homecreen - appears to raise some interest...
Therefore here the details:
ADWLauncher Ex, 7 x 5 (columns/rows)
y0rk's Black ADW theme
Tool bar at the bottom: Main dock with 5 icons
Screen 1: Weather Widgets v14.9 (linked to HTC weather and HTC clock)
Screen 2: PowerControl; Pure Music widget; Pure Calendar widget;
Screen 3. Elixir widgets
Screen 4: Droid stats; Puer messenger widget
Cheers

MyMobileExplorer (known as well as myPhoneExplorer). not in the market, but free donloads everywhere - replaces HTC Sync.
Definitely better with XP, but no longer required with W7, since the outlook syncronisation problem with XP (contact pictures and items) is now solved.
And in combo with Navigon, it is mandatory to have a good outlook sync, since Navigon uses the outlook addresses.
Cheers
PS: After 2 wekks, I love my Sensation - incredible fast - Navigon rocks like a charm - best mobile so far (my wife has the IShit4 - all the complaints about the display - forget it - the HTC is at least as briliant as the fruit)

I'm guessing he is using Launcher Pro, or maybe ADW Launcher.

MIUI Weather Widget Not Installed

Hello,
I installed MIUI v4 on my Desire S recently. I downloaded the port from miuiandroid.com. I am loving this ROM, but the weather widget doesn't seem to be working, and there appears to be no weather app installed. know about weather.miui.es, but what you get there is an older version of the widget which can't use your current location. I know this is a bit of a silly question which probably has a simple solution, but does anyone know what to do to get that widget working?
Thanks in advance.

There is no international version yet, sorry

That's a but of a pain... But there is still probably hope. Since I started this thread, I heard Xiaomi and miuiandroid.com are working on an international version of their weather widget, so let's hope it gets put together soon... By the way, do you know of any good looking, free weather widgets?

Nope, sorry mate
I'm not a weather kinda guy.
I use the window - it's high res!

I use the window too, but unfortunately, it doesnt show the weather for places I intend travelling too.

Have you guys tried MIUI Digital Weather Clock? - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=factory.widgets.MIUIDigitalClock
Or Fancy Widgets - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.fancywidgets
PS. No offence 'bout the windows comment, I hope. I was just kidding

I used AccuWeather widget to replace the MIUI one.
