Can I get Rolex, Omega or Tag Heuer analog clocks on HD2 alone, without MaxManila?

Hi Guys,
As the title suggests, I'm looking to install Rolex,Omega or Tag clocks on my HD2. I would ideally like to install them independently so I can use Vovichek_Jamrecords 16 TT UPDATED.cab (which allows for 16 quicklinks) as well.
Before I get flamed, I've done a lot of searching and have found clocks that I can use here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=595745&page=5
and this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=604796
but when I install them, I can't use any quick link apps and I can only use the default 9 quicklinks on the homescreen. The only other solution I've found is installing MaxManila but I don't want to do that as I like to install all of my stuff 1 by 1 rather than having a number of tweaks all installed at once like it making the calendar transparent & stuff which I don't want and it doesn't seem to install correctly on my phone anyway, with the quicklink name halfway up the icon, as I beleive it's designed for the blackstone?
Is there a simple solution to this and/or have I missed something? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Bumpity bump-bump

EXACTLY what i want too!

Bumpingtons

And another interested guy^^ There are several cabs for the flipclock and all are working like a charm! But I just need one working analog clock cab only, thats all what I need No MaxManila, no B4all and so on...only clock please!!

Exactly - me too.

Yes,
That's what I'm looking for, the clocks alone. I contacted jaguaralani who seems to be the main guy who makes these clocks and he says that it's not as simple as just whacking a clock on the phone. There are a lot of associated files included with any clock modifications which is why you often see the clocks included with other modifications like sliders, 20 quicklinks etc... I have seen standalone clocks which you can add but they won't let you use Quicklink apps and seem to conflict with other bits and pieces (check my first post for the link).
Thanks

Why not use max manilla.
Its safe and if you like the stock screen on UI just dont change any thing.
Just install the clock as per your wish.
One more thing you can do is that you can actually have two analogue clocks displaying two different time zones.
And as you said, jaguarlani is the one who makes most of them, and i agree they are awesome.
I am using a taghuer clock face. (i have twenty different clocks prepared by jaguarlani).
Just a word of caution dont install any clock hands, otherwise you will end up loosing the original clock hands, and if you un install the hands, the hands wouldnt appear on the clock face (it wont revert the previous ones). Same goes with the clock too, you would need at least one clock installed otherwise the clock would dissapear.
I absolutely love max manilla, give it a shot, its absolutely worth his effort.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. Can you explain this a little more please? Can I install MaxManila and not use any functions of it at all like the 20 Quicklinks, Transsliders or anything else except the clocks? I though that if I installed it, it would automatically install those tweaks to the HD2. Am I wrong?
Thanks

That´s what I thought too...I don´t like the clocks periphery (frame) coming with maxmanila, I really want to keep the black background in all other tabs except the starttab (don´t like the B4all thing, to me it´s too confusing and wild in the emailtab for instance ) and there are one or too bugs I dislike with maxmanila (20 shortcuts not working well?).

I agree I just want analogue clock with 16/20 short cuts + call history not the whole MaxManila so I'd be willing to give it a shot put something together but would appreciate if some of the expert manila/sense 2.5 skinners can point me in the right direction as to what tool they use to edit the manila files? is it manila kitchen found here?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=528548

I don't know what version of Sense you have, but here is my simple analog clock array for 2.5.1922, with no B4all !
If this installs and works ok for you, then we can worry about skinning the clock with one of the other skins out there. Let me know!
If it doesn't work for you, sorry, just uninstall! If it does, I gladly accept beer!

hi mate
thanks for replying! ur clock array didnt work
i got big blank icons in the quicklinks and didnt like the clock
i want too use the normal sense ui date and time but want the omega clock
yt
i will be glad too buy you a beer if you find me a solution

No problem, sorry it didn't work for you. The clocks however are changable, once you have a configuration that works for your rom.
It would be easier to possibly help you, if you could tell me your version of sense. Again, sorry it didn't work on your rom.

hi santod
thanks for helping me mate
how do i find out my sense version??
cheers

I can also offer some beer. I have Manilla 2.5.19211619.0. I would like a replacement for the Sense clock which is similar to this:

lots of beer for santod if he gets us going
my sense version is: 1.0.19211622.1
hope this helps mate!!
looking forward too ur creation....i wanna be able to use the omega and tag watches thanks
all the best

[REQ]Transparent Task bar and Soft keys

Dear all, I know that probably you have heard this request already but after 2 days being stuck with trying to find a simple solution I decided to write. I need the following:
Simple task bar, soft key bar transparency cab.
Now I know this can be achieved through HDWall and TF3D but isn't there a most simple solution?
I tried using TF3D and couldn't find propper instructioins because they ende up here.
Tried the search function but nothing comes up.
Sorry for the new thread but will appreciate a lot if someone could give me a hint.

I know you've said you've already thought of HDWall, but I really don't see what's wrong with that as a solution. It's real easy to use and you simply end up with a cab file. It'll take like 2 minutes to create your own cab.
Just follow the instructions on the main HDWall thread and you'll have what you're asking for.

Thanks for the prompt reply. The only reason why I don't want to use it is because I love to change my wallpapers very oftenly (depending on my moods). That is why I was thinking of a most simple solution...

Well like I said, HDWall only takes a couple of minutes to create a cab, so you can have full resolution wallpaper, on all your tabs, with whatever config you want for the look of the whole screen. I've got a collection of cabs on my device. I can change my wallpaper simply by running one of them.
Each to their own, but it really is too easy.
Good luck

Removing items from home screen?

Ok so firstly i have spent 30minutes checking and im yet to find it, if its already been asked/answered then sorry .
Im basically looking to remove the useless items(for me) on the home screen :
The weather- I check this on the seperate tab so i dont need it
The massive clock- Blocking majority of the screen, has time on the top right so again no need.
Disable quicklinks unless i scroll down the home page(i think this is possible already)
Calendar- Tried removing and is still there.
Im trying to minimise the stuff on the screen to admire the wallpapers , havent found a way through the options or via cab's to do any of this, if anyone has suggestions then id appreciate it .
Using duttys leo cooked rom, Manila 2.5.20113626

MaxManila (which you can find here at xda) is able to customize almost anything you might want to change - adding or hiding elements is easy.
There may be other options of course, but I think this is the most convenient.
Just make sure you install the correct version for your Manila.

thanks for the reply and links, however i did try those in that thread and i ended up with my HD2 failing to load htc sense . Id rather remove the features than make them transparent apart from the slider which i managed to make transparant .
What section is the download for MaxManila in?. Is it specific for hd2 or is it somewhere else, cant find it on its own in here so far .
edit: actually no i missed the no clock from your link! I tried the other parts originally , just tried it and it works perfectly now however i stillk need to somehow get rid of the calendar and weather along with quicklinks .

Transparency without 3rd party apps???

Hi All,
Im new here and I recently divorced iPhone! I have an HTC HD2 and its probably the BEST ive ever had! Ive seen a lot of posts for themes, etc, however, I prefer the "boring" default homescreen I have (snapshot attached). Ive installed cht and I think it was GREAT, but I didnt like the way my phone "blinked" everytime i woke it up. In any case, i prefer the default screen and my question is, Is it possible to have a bit of transparency on my phone WITHOUT installing 3rd party apps like cht and so on? (Just a simple cab file that adds the TRANSPARENT look to my homescreen and other screens). This will be great! I love playing with custom backgrounds that I make with photoshop, so some transparency will be perfect!
Thanks in advance guys, and keep up the GREAT work!
Regards,
Yaz

Since you use Sense are tons of Manila files that devs have modified that have made certain items transparent. You'll have to hunt for those. What you should really do is load a custom ROM, preferably one with CHT baked in, and go from there. I guarantee your phone won't "blink".

Wow,, THIS SITE IS THE BEST!!!
When I had the iPhone and registered on one of the forums, I used to submit posts, and not get a response for AT LEAST 2 DAYS!! To get a response within a couple of hours is SUPERB!!
Anyway (sorry about that! - got a bit excited) About your recommendation for loading a custom ROM, I guess you saw my specs so you are confident that I wont have any issues. However, I dont know WHAT TO DO, HOW TO DO IT, WHAT I NEED, etc. Therefore, I would be grateful if you would kindly "link" me to the right direction, and I will take it from there. If I do face any issues, would it be OK to pm you?
Please let me know!
Cheers again!

If you want a rom that has both CHT and has transparency have a look at energys rom, link here:
Just scroll down and find the version you want! There are a few, you need to have hslpl installed and then just flash his rom!

If you don't want to flash a new rom and just make a few changes to the stock rom here are a few links to a ton of mods/tweaks for ya(transparency included)..

[Q] Help

I installed new task bar (dinik anastasia) and followed the instructions. It changed my icon at the top showing I had a VM but nothing else is showing. Now I can't get to my start screen. I understand I can unistall this problem is nothing happens when I touch start at the top and when I press the windows button at the bottom again nothing happens. So I cant even access the area needed to uninstall this program or anything else. Please help

Did you install sdkcerts before installing the taskbar? Something in shellres.192.dll is causing the problem. Can you slide over to your setting tab? if so hit menu, all settings, system, then remove programs to uninstall. Or set up one of your quicklinks to access file explorer, navigate to the cab, click on it as if your were going to reinstall and let it uninstall previous version then softreset and see if it fixes everything..

Yes I installed that first as it instructed. I was finally able to get into my applications and removed it and everything seems to be back to normal. I would really like to install new themes, etc. any idea of a good place to get the downloads from (seeing how my first try didnt work)? Thanks!

^^^ You´re at the best possible place.
But, you need to know a little bit what you´re doing.
A taskbar must fit your WinMo version, plus, as the previous tip said, the certification must be there.
Most tweaks and mods are made for specific versions, like any other software for any other operating system.
Once you´re familiar with those things, you can pimp as much as you want.

I´m not really an expert, either... just a user like you. All I made is some graphics for clocks because I like them in real life, too...
As a beginner, I would start to look a little to what others do. This thread here is great to start: Klick! Maybe just start with the last pages, where you´ll see the latest tweaks and mods. Sometimes people write where they got what they use, sometimes you can ask.
One of the greatest tools to change the layout and the functionality of Sense (that´s the basic user interface of an HD2 using Windows Mobile 6.5) is CHT (short for coOkiemonster´s Home Tab): Klick!
Add some graphic mods and tweaks, and there you go. Some examples:
[6THEMES]Nordpolcampers Tranquility Theme Cabs up! + many more Themes
[THEME] WP7 UI and WM SKINS [UPDATED 26/5/11]
[ Theme.Windroid - The Final ]******** HTC SENSE 3.0*******
Please carefully read in each thread what the author says about instructions.
Last, but not least, there is much more to discover (as in if you like clocks, too, follow the link in my signature for some examples, those clocks are made to be used with CHT).
Enjoy your great device, have fun with personalizing!
