Clock Widget - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
Does anyone know what clock widget this is?

Wow that looks amazing. I hope somebody for somebody to know the answer

Its probably from the Xoom2....
Hope someone can extract it for us

It is one of the Motorola clock widgets in the xyboard factory OS.
Here is the apk for the widget. I don't know if there are other apps needed for it to work or not, but you can try it.

It cannot be installed. Probably other permissions / sys files needed or non complete apk.

It didn't installed for me (Xoom CyanogenMod 9). It opens the install dialog and then says "Application not installed"

It probably needs the odex file also, but I haven't spent the time to learn how to combine them. I will post it in a couple of minutes if someone can deodex the files it might make it installable.

Is there anyone here that can help combining them order deodex?

That would be cool?
What program will you use fot it?

The original widget is on the left (came stock on my xyboard)
My moto skinned version of the miui-animated clock widget is on the right.
It's a bit smaller due to the size of the miui clock widget, but I tried to make it as authentic looking as possible.
the steps I went through were roughly done in this order:
1. open the original apk with 7-zip and extract the folders.
2. opened the images for the clock background and hands
3. cut as much as I could out of them and reformatted them to fit the miui clock widget images corresponding with the appropriate object as well as doing a lot of image editing to get them back into stock moto clock looking shape. I could only use the clock face and hands. I had to recreate some of the shading and the glass outer ring.
4 Opened a copy of the base miui clock widget and deleted the corresponding images
5 added the new images to the apk
6 resigned the apk
after this I installed it and added the "animated anilog clock" widget to my homescreen and resized.

[THEMING APP] One Click DeskClock.apk themer, It does all the work!!!

So I've be thinking about this program for a while. Basically this is a desktop app that will apply your desk clock theme, optimize the pngs, make you a flashable zip and then zip align it all with one click.
All you have to do is change the clock's png files to what you want ( don't change the sizes), and then run the clock_themer.jar and the work is done, unless copying the file to your sdcard and flashing it is considered work.
Everything is provided, all the clock's pngs are in the zip file just download and unzip the file below and the programs ready to go.
Please tell Me if something doesn't work I'll fix it.
Give me some feed back, as I have future plans for this app
This is for the AOSP DeskClock.apk but it could be changed todo more!
D/L for my_clock_themer
So when your bored like I was today make a new clock with my app!
I might take it a step further and make it so that it will apply a theme to a whole rom but thats later.
Really no one interested in this? I'm surprised.
Can you flash from recovery
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
The program I have as a download is not a flashable program, what it does do though is allow you to make changes to the deskclock.apk and them makes the flashable zip for you.
Its a desktop app much like apk manager but easrier to use (but does less). When you unzip it to your computer you will see that the deskclock.apk is in the folder along with a folder of all the pngs that make the clock. You can alter those pngs and run my program and then you have a flashable zip (my_themed_clock_signed.zip) ready with your newly themed clock.
All you have to do is change the png and run the program and you have a new clock, your clock themed how you want.
I will try it out 2morrow i am still at work

Finally lol, thank you.
Just unzip it to your desktop and go into the clock_pngs folder. Then change the appwidget_clock_dial.png in your favorite paint program (gimp?) and then double click the clock_themer.jar (wait a second or so) and bam you have a new my_themed_clock_signed.zip folder with your changes.
Tell me how its goes.
very nice idea will check it out after lunch.. thanks

No thank you please tell me how it works for you. This might turn into a theme injecter, where youd be able to extract all the pngs from a rom and change then and then add them back. The program would do the dirty work.
would this do text colors also.??? like the ones on screen saver mode..???
This only themes your clock widget it was essentially my test program for my theme injector....your draw the pics and run the program and it will theme the clock for you.

Off of memory I think its the clockopia.ttf font in \system\fonts\ of your rom. If you take a font from your computer and rename it to clockopia.ttf and replace it then it should change your lock screen font.
You could also use the font flasher thats float around here, it come with several fonts.

Help Modifying App

Hi, I have downloaded Youlu phone book replacement for my HTC Hero and I really like the app but not the widget.
I have been playing round with .apk and .png files over the last few day I decided to try and customise the widget by making the background transparent and changing the icons.
With the .png's changed and the apk zipped and signed I install the app, apply the widget and there it is my first customised widget on my home screen.
But when I try to open the app either via the widget or the app draw get a message asking me update my settings file and a link to download the original apk. And I am unable to use the app.
Any help anyone could give regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Cjward23
P.S. I have highlighted the custom Youlu widget on Screenshot, the badly drawn red line is not part of the widget
Anyone?

see for APK Manager 4.9 - here you can find information about manipulating apk's
I used APK manager to modify the .png files. But the app seems to know that I have modified the .png files and won't let me open it.

Why are you modifying the framework-res.apk. Shouldn't you modify the apk of the Yolulu app?
If you really need to make the changes in framework-res, don't resign it. Never resign system apks. Just make the changes, and zip it back up.

need help
right ive opened up the apk theres no relevent png's so i guess the colours etc are in xml's how do i set it to transparent and move it to bottom of screen?
I know it's not what you want to hear, but...
You could purchase Folder Organizer (paid app by the same dev). It has same functionality but with more options, like changing the backgrounds of the folders, changing app icons, and you can add shortcuts, contacts, bookmarks, etc to folders.
Just a suggestion. It's the best app I've ever bought, and the couple of bucks has to be worth the time of changing the xml files.
Sorry I couldn't offer a better answer, but if you want to just change Apps Organizer I'm sure you need to figure out where the values are in the xml & change it accordingly.
Sent from my badass HTC Supersonic (Evo 4g) using XDA Premium App
Folder Organizer uses the panel_background.9.png file from the system framework res drawables folder. That's why it's not in the apk. In order to change the look, you have replace this file with the modded panel_background.9.png file you want to use in your framework.apk. However, because you're modding the panel_background.9 file, it will be like this for ANY apk that also accesses this 9.png file. But that's what you need to do if you really want to mod the backgound to have sharp corners.
I can't find it under root explorer

Lock screen

Anyone know of any lock screen apps or mods that will show my battery charging percent. My current rom only shows a lightning bolt. I would like a percent number.
Thanks.

Try our "Ripple Lock" from the market. It has options and you can enable battery percentage

Widget locker is great too. You have to pay for it though.

WidgetLocker is awesome, and you can put your battery percentage right on the lockscreen. Totally worth the money.
I'm loving MiLocker and it's free in ghe Market. There are also hundreds of different lockscreens that can be loaded into it.
Attached a pic of my Lockscreen using MiLocker.
Yup, that's what my lockscreen looks like. Swipe the center down to unlock. Left side to open the Dialer and Right side to open SMS.
I love milocker myself tons of lock screens to choose from.

you can try miLocker, its free.
Is there a way to either remove the language on the milocker cos there isn't a setting where you can choose your preferred language for date and time. Not hating on Chinese, but I'd prefer everything to be consistently in english. Thx

You can edit the lockscreen, it's a zip without the zip extension.
Or keep looking, there are a lot of English only lockscreens.
Look for one called Ash Bolt. I'll list more when I get home.

Perfect thx. As far as editing goes, what tools are needed? I'll also look into the suggested one.
sent from my CommandCenter using xda premium
Here are a couple. The one named FivePoint_eng will show up in MiLocker as Testing. I never went back in to change it.
Do not rename, just copy each one to the MIUI/theme folder on the sdcard.
Ash Bolt comes with it's own wallpaper, but you can change it in the MiLocker menu. Five Points does not have it's own wallpaper.

You need to unzip the .mtz file, then unzip the lockscreen file, inside you'll find a file called manifest.xml. That's the one that you'll need to edit to make it English only.
When you unzipped the mtz there was a file called description.xml, that's where the name of the lockscreen is located plus someother info.
Then just zip each back up working in reverse.

Update: okay I have the testing theme set and running well. Thx again for those. As for doing the language edit, failed miserably with that. I guess I just need to get schooled a little on zipping those files back into .mtz file formats. The couple of times I tried it, the theme doesn't show up on my SD card. Back to the drawing board for me.

[Q] Sense 4 Apex Folder Background/Dock Background

I am trying to find the Sense 4.0 folder background & Sense 4.0 dock backround to use with Apex/CM10 and I am having no luck.
I know Apex allows you to select a custom folder background but I can't find the Sense 4.0 folder background image anywhere...can anyone extract these images from Sense for me...I hate the default folder backgrounds on Apex...so ugly!
I know this is a Q&A type thing but it's about themeing so maybe this is an acceptable place to put this? Please forgive me if not...
More specifically I am looking for these images from the "Matte Skin"...

Right...I got the folders to work...and it looks great....can't find a way to get the dock to work though..doesn't seem to be an option to select your own image file like you can for the folders...
After doing some research I am thinking this isn't possible with Apex or Nova. I am going to try GO Launcher and see if that would work....this really shouldn't be that hard.
I know for a fact adw has this feature
Sorry I misread your question before

Ehhhh...just tried out ADW and it is less than impressive compared to Apex beta build. I'll figure out something. Might look into compiling a theme. Do you know if its possible to download an Apex theme from Play Store and then swap dock images somehow with a file explorer or something? I know you could do something like this on iPhone but not sure how that works with Android though...
Thoughts from anyone who is a lot more knowledgeable than me?!?

Is it possible to add touchwiz Jelly Bean folder (round platform) and/or opening animation to apex or another Launcher?
What I did was extracted the folder icon from the drawable folder of HTCs Rosie launcher .apk. Then you just choose a custom folder in the folder settings of Apex and select the icon from the gallery.

Yeah. Maybe try suggesting it to Apex dev's. They recently added a suggestion I emailed them about (custom dock image).
