Hey guys. I'm in search of an animated flip clock, identical to the one found on HTC devices. After hours of looking around, I've decided that there is not one out there that flips AND looks just like the HTC one. However, after playing around with Better Alarm Clock Pro, I found that it has a working flip clock built into the app, but it cannot be used as a widget. This brings out the question: Can this portion of the app be ported so that it is a widget? I am rooted, on an Optimus V running Stock ROM with everything stipped, if it matters. Thank you.
Just use fancy widget, looks and flips pretty much the same

Fancy Widget with the H7C skin looks almost exactly like the sense flip clock.
Go weather's htc style widget looks close too. Just download go weather and then the skin for the widget.

He wants it to flip too. Like the animation. This isn't currently possible according to fancy widget. It is in the FAQ on their site.
Fancy Widget Pro is quite good to pretend as HTC Sense clock, Retro Clock Widget is an alternative for simple flip clock
I believe the flipping animation is part of Sense UI... soo you can't exactly replicate that.
Anyways I understand it'd look cool for the first hour or so when you're looking at your widget to flip..
you'll forget about it later, and it'll cause to be nothing more than a battery eater.
I own fancy widget pro and am using the h7c skin, but it doesn't flip. Better alarm clock pro has a working flipclock built in and I just want to know if it can be ported?

Hello? Surely this is possible?

Try a LWP instead of a widget search the Marketplace for "Live Wallpaper Flip Clock" by Sergey Golovanov it is not bad and may accomplish the effect you are looking for.
Thanks for the reply, RifRaf, looking into it at this very moment. But my original question is still not answered. PLEASE can anyone tell me if it is possible to port it. I don't know how to develop apps or scripts or any of that stuff. All I know is that the flip clock is there, within the app, and I just want it on my homescreen.
The flip is part of htc's framework. Its not part of androids. Theres no way to make it work.

well I know I sound like I'm a dumbass here, but I know that the stock android system is capable of animated Widgets. I've used a clock with rolling animation, so I know that animation is possible. I also know that better alarm clock pro has the HTC flip clock. How can it not be possible to animate the flip clock as a widget? All of the image files are there, it just needs to be coded or scripted or whatever (I'm not programming inclined, obviously). If anyone can make a widget out of this, I would be happy to give them a few drinks.

If youre not programming inclined then why do you insist it can be done? I have been told by many developers, it can not be done. Talk to any sense dev, theyll tell you.

THANK YOU SO MUCH
Can any developers just theme this app using the image sets found in better alarm clock pro? Idk If it is possible to add weather but would it not be possible to theme it?

Look, if I had several hundred dollars to throw away just so I could get a damn flip clock....I am fine with my phone how it is. The flip clock is 100% possible, there was a working flip clock posted earlier in this thread. It just needs to be themed to look like the htc one.
I have my entire sense theme put together, I just need this flip clock widget to happen, so I can make it complete.
It doesn't really look like HTC Sense, but it flips...
Try out "Animating Flip Clock Widget" - it's free on the market. I'm sure the apk could be modded to look more like the Sense clock.
EDIT: Doh! I just realized the link posted earlier was the same widget. Oh well... but yeah, I'm sure it could be modded, but making it look exactly like the Sense flip clock, including weather, the dark background behind the tabs, etc... might be difficult.

Where are the theme devs!!! Lol,I would gladly be one,if I could get my head around pretty much adding the things I wanna change to the framwork folder. I've ready many guides but,I always get stuck at the same spot. I tried atleast a million times within the past year

Whats to theme? I can change every Icon, wallpaper and picture on my phone with Go Launcher EX, Widget locker, BetterCut, simple text and UOT kitchen.
Waste of time making themes.
Well I mean,all kinds of things really. Your rite about uot kitchen though

Plenty of Theme Chooser themes in market. Many of those devs are on XDA. Probably not really Inspire specific, since quite a few phones share this resolution/are hdpi now. Check the more general android themes forum.
ADWex has some decent themes and icon changing ability as well.

I'm looking for some good Widgets that aren't, as far as I can tell, in CM7. Specifically, I'm hoping to find a good bookmark widget (similar to stock if possible). I am also open to suggestions for other Widgets that you guys find useful.
Launcher pro I believe has some good widgets, I never used the paid version but was told it has some of those widgets you're asking about.

Check out 'android pro widgets' on the market.. Sense style, scrollable widgets. I'm almost positive there's a bookmark one.

I have heard about this one, but financial issues prevent me from using a paid one unfortunately. Thanks for the suggestion, just the same!
launcher pro does have good widgets but only in the paid version. There's several bookmark widgets on the market, here's the first one I came across. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sense.bookmarkswidget If you look around the market and google you'll find there's a lot of Sense like widgets out there.

I did several searches, but this one never came up. I was hoping for personal experience suggestions, but will probably try this one anyway.
Definitely try Android Pro Widget. Lots of features.

I ran into the same problem. You have to scroll down pretty far, but it is in there.
Here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rdr.widgets.core&feature=search_result
I actually went ahead and grabbed this one to try it out. So far, so good. It has several widgets, but all I needed from it is the Bookmarks. Does that just fine.
Here you go, all transparent APW. Thanks to adude247 over at the transparent widgets thread.

GO Launcher EX is a MIUI-esque launcher with some nice built-in widgets and themes.
Also, thanks for the tip on Colorized! I'm using MIUI and wanted a good Facebook/Twitter widget!

Browsing the net for some splash screens/wallpapers and so on, I've accidentally found some nice lockscreens made by nick1313. I was wondering if there are also available for our Desire S (originally they're made for Evo 4G)
I've included a picture below to see what I'm talking. Mainly I'm interested in that nice central electronic watch, eventually if there's such a widget to be placed on the screen
I'm on Endymion v2.1 with the HD honey theme and the clock your after is in:
Personalize,display, lock screen style, clock ,settings,spin cycle clock which is the last one number 11. Cheers gordon

Thank you for the tip, I'll check the scheme, but I'm on CM ROM and I'm quite happy with it, don't want to change it only for a lockscreen. I was hoping to find something that will work on CM ROMs
No probs very new to all this not sure if the clock is part of the rom or the theme. Cheers gordon

That is the very same clock I use and can confirm it's a sense 3.0/3.5 rom lockscreen. But I do like the unlock ring goes well with the clock.

Actually bud I can't take credit for those, Mando41 actually made them, I think. Here's a tutorial for it that I've found but haven't ever used.
EDIT: Just saw you said lockscreen. Did you mean lock ring? The lock screen is just an HTC lock screen right?
Don't know exactly what the posibilities are, that's why I said "lockscreen" (in the print screens there was the lockscreen). What I'd like to have is that digital round watch as a widget on my screen or, if that's not possible to have a lockscreen as you have in the prints.
It just crossed my mind now that the digital watch is on the desktop and the lockscreen has transparent background so it's seen through it.
I'll check the link you've provided and see if I can do something that works on CM ROM not MIUI

Hi, really do like that unlock ring mod I believe its an apk sense skin, correct me if I'm wrong cos most lockrings are modded thru skins.
Would you be kind to direct me to the thread that I can find this mod please.
Cheers.

MasterDL from what I've read and understood, that is the standard sense lockring lockscreen with a moded lockring. Nick has already provided a link to a tutorial for making those custom lockrings (check his post). For this to work though, you should have a ring lockscreen integrated in the rom (Sense based or MIUI as far as I saw). Unfortunately there's no such lockscreen in CM (the "ring" lockscreen in CM looks different)
^ Yeah I know, I am asking for it Cos I am a sense 3.5 user and like to know where this thread is so I can make one myself.
I'm talking about that ring in your first post.

HERE is the tutorial nick has pointed to, for the rest you can check the links in his signature. There are some screens and mods on that site too.
You can also search XDA for "lockring lockscreen" and you'll find plenty of threads that also have sample lockrings for you to use if you like to build your own
Since HTC one S has been launched in a few countries already!
its time we have our own HOMESCREENS thread.....
Mod speaking
Please be so kind to name what apps, widgets, mods, etc. are used on your screenshots

Ok, nothing special: Pixel Rain as background and Apex Launcher with some Android Ice Cream Sandwich Icons. The Icon pack can be found here.
You could have found these Icons already in a main thread here in the forum.
But what is really important is, DzzR made me a few icons on request. They were included in a new version of his Icon Pack within one day. If you like these and maybe others, don't hesitate...
And yes, I love it minimalistic so there is a bit too much of Google on my screen
Here's mine, cute transformer prime background
beautiful meteo
Here's mine. I'm currently using beautiful meteo wallpaper.
My only concern would be battery drain. Do you think that animated wallpapers drain a lot of the battery?
And looking for the more simple "stock" grass wallpaper though, if someone could point me towards it? I made a lot of research but didn't manage to get something working on this not-yet-rooted One S.
