I uploaded my digital clock widget, mClock. I plan on adding more styles and/or options. Let me know what you think, what you would like to see as far as options go and whatever else.
I've attached the QR code and screenshots.
For the fonts in the screenshot I just grabbed some off the web and put them on the sdcard.
Fonts: 1979, Acens, Colwell, Orbitron-Medium, and the built in fonts.

Looks great so far!
I have some suggestions though,
First of all, I really want a real 24 hour clock instead of the 12 hour clock available.
4x2 widget would be awesome.
Perhaps custom date formatting, for example, I cannot currently do "Sunday, November 7". The default android formatting options would be nice i.e "EEEE, EEE, HHHH, MMMM, d and so on."
Perhaps click to open application..
Maybe shadow options?
Larger font size than 100px? I currently use 128px which perfectly fits my screen from side to side.
Separating different lines would be awesome, for example, I might want month and day number on one row and weekday on another.
24 hr clock: I have the code almost ready for that
4x2 widget: Easy to add
Date format: Sunday, November 7 is already supported. You can turn off the year portion on any of the date formats and change the separator to ,(Space).
Click to open app: I've been thinking of a good way to handle this. I also need to allow clicking to open the options page. I've thought about dividing the clickable area to allow different launch options. If you have a good idea I'm all ears.
Shadow options: The blur effect overwrites the shadow. I haven't figured out a way to get both to work. I may settle for toggling between shadow or blur. But I did have the shadow working on a test build so it's doable.
Larger fonts: Easy to change
Different lines: That's where the different styles/formats come into play. Those take a bit more work but I do plan on providing that sort of thing.
Update to 1.3. Includes 24 hr clock, 4x2 widget and increased font max size
Exellent app mate! Congratulations! I m using it whole evening! So good, so far! I have no further wishes about this app! Loving it!
About the click to open app, why not a application in the launcher for the settings?
24 hour clock option should disable AM/PM automatically?
Still not seeing 4x2 widget?
I like shadow because it can act as both solid blur, shadow and the color is configurable.
Blur seems cut off at top and bottom at big font sizes?
I know it's a hassle for almost no difference but perhaps render it as text instead of a bitmap?
I know I sound whiny but this app has so great potential and is already better than the rest of the clocks, simply awesome work. Love it.
New update fixes the 4x2 issue. I forgot to add it to the manifest file... Also I disable the am/pm if 24 hour mode is on.
As for the shadow, I'll work on it next. Hopefully should have it ready tomorrow night. I have code already that allows you to select the shadow color, x & y offset and the shadow size. It should just be a matter of getting it all in shape and tested.
For the app launch. Do you mean put a item in the configure screen that will launch the app?
The blur getting cut off is a side effect of the clipping, I have an idea of how to solve that but I'm going to delay the fix for now.
I don't mind the suggestions, I like to know what can be improved.
Seems the update service crashes(or simply doesn't start) a lot on 1.3.1 with the 4x2 size?
Text won't fill the 4x2 widget correctly, fonts seem limited to a too small size(only 24 hour clock, won't fit width)?
Another suggestion of mine, 24 hour clocks usually display a leading zero when the hour is a single digit?
What I meant with app launch was to have a normal app (the ones that show up in your app drawer ^^) for configuration and launch custom apps with the widget.
Right now I have no clue why 4x2 doesn't work. It works on the emu but not on the device. The other sizes seem fine though. I'll look into it tomorrow.
Very cool looking digital clock widget! Great design.
My new favorite clock app !
What I really like about it is the way you can change colors.. gradient is a nice option.
Nice work mate !
Upload the APK please
Could you please attach the APK file here for the comfort of downloading?
It would be a great help.
Thanks
Arindam
Added the apk file to the original post.
New release now has shadows, more layout options, another clock format and some bug fixes. However I wasn't able to figure out the 4x2 widget issue so it's disabled for now.
looking awesome.
Good luck on the 4x2 widget.
Figured out the 4x2 issue. Still trying to get a good design on handling the app launch feature. One problem is you can have multiple widgets so if I disable the tap to config then you'll have to delete and re-add to change options. One idea is to have a popup that you either choose the app or the config, not as great as just tap to launch.
Awesome...The best clock widget till date...works great on my xperia x10.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
The clock seems kinda small, seems there is a lot of space to spare. See screenshot, bottom is the size I would want(Self-made clock widget), top is current size.
Awesome update man, 1.5 is simply awesome.
There's something "wrong" with the 1.5 version (market update)..
I've downloaded and installed your attached 1.4.1 file in first post just to be sure my eyes were ok..
When I set clock colours (white 100% and white 50%), the gradient is not as smooth as it used to be on 1.4.1
For the size not being as large as you want, try bumping up the font size and turning off clipping. Set the date's vertical alignment to bottom and the clock's to top. That should give you what you're looking for. And if the font size is maxed let me know and I'll increase it.
For the gradient issue. I know exactly what why it happens. I could go into tech details but basically to get the 4x2 working I had to reduce the rgba depth. I'll go back and increase it for all the smaller sizes.
Yeah, font size was maxed out. Perhaps make that setting a text input, shouldn't have any limits and be precise enough then.
Hey knoxcoder, I LOVE your widget, but as Poodlemastah points out, there's this major drawback of not being able to launch our app of choice when tapping it. This is a must have for all clock widgets.
Most of us like to set our alarms by just tapping on the clock widget, and right now I find myself using TWO clock widgets because of this... yours because it's the best looking, and another one in the adjacent home screen just to launch the alarms app... lol.
Even if it means having to re-add the widget once you add this feature, I still think it will be worth it in the long term... it's just a must-have for most people.
As Poodlemastah has suggested, I think the behaviour most of us would expect is:
Both the "add -> widget" option from the home screen and the icon in the app drawer will take us to the config screen. There, we can set all the parameters as we want them (including which app to launch).
Now, as you've said, there can be multiple instances of the widget, so maybe the ideal setup would be being able to "save" different clock configs from the settings menu (without necessarily applying them to any instance), then choosing which one of them to apply at the moment we add the widget to a homescreen. That way, it wouldn't be such a hassle to re-add them everytime, because the config would be saved.
It would be a matter of making the user conscious of this change by just re-arranging the settings menu: when we open it, it shows the options "Create new clock...", "Edit existing clock...", etc. That way, they would realize each clock is saved independently, and they would be asked for a name first of all, so that they would actually remember what it was called when they want to load it up.
Example:
· I open mClock settings
· I'm presented with 3 options: "Add existing clock to home screen"; "Create new clock..."; "Edit/delete existing clocks...".
· I choose "Create new clock..."
· I'm asked for a name, I name it "My clock".
· I'm then presented with the clock settings screen, which I procceed to adjust to my liking.
· At the bottom, I see 2 buttons: "Save" and "Cancel". I click "Save".
· After that, I'm taken back to the settings screen.
· I now choose "Add existing clock to home screen".
· I'm presented with a list of the existing clocks already created.
· I choose "My clock".
· The clock is added to a home screen (the central one, I guess?), and I'm automatically taken there to see it.
Another way to add a clock would be to go to a home screen, choose the "add widget" option in the launcher, and choose "mClock", in which case I would be taken to the same settings menu as before. The only difference would be that the clock would get added to the same screen from which I called the "add widget" option.
I don't know if this would be such a big hassle to make, or if it's impossible at all, since I haven't done any Android development yet. I'm only talking from a usual programmer and UI designer point of view

I like the widget.
Some suggestions/ bugs:
- if I choose 100% alpha for background, analog clock, etc. it is not really invisible, there is still a shadow
- instead to turn the alpha to 100% to make background, analog clock, etc. invisible give a selection to turn off (e.g dont show background)
- I cant use any of my picture for background
- in the settings gui in portrait mode we have to scroll to the right side. Why dont you use 2 rows for all the settings buttons?

Yes, use pictures with low size. the product of height and width of the picture should be less than 120000, preferably of the same size as background dimensions for best result.

Here I present a program called Notification Browser. It will show a list of all received notifications and tries to extract the info and show it as a list. Also a widget is included. Tapping the notification should start the corresponding intent and tapping the garbage bin icon should delete the notification from the list. The idea was to be able to have a full screen launcher and even then having easy access to notifications.
For it to work, you need to go to accessibility settings and enable Notification browser.
Market link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dapaua.notificationbrowser
Settings and their meaning:
Widget Background: Allows you to choose the background from three not that different options.
Widget opacity: Allows you to make the widget transparent. 100% opacity means not transparent a t all. 0% means totally transparent.
Icon type: Allows you to choose between 4 different options for the icon. "Notification" means the small icon that appears in the notification bar. Application is the icon shown in the launcher for the app. Original means the original colors. Coloured means that it will use the "Color for notifications" value.
Use notification icon: Some notifications show a different icon when the notification bar is expanded, for example Gmail or whatsapp. The program will use this icon if available instead of the one set in "Option type".
Use blacklist: Filters the notification according to the blacklisted apps list. If an app is in the list, enabling this option disables its notifications in the widget.
Blacklisted apps: Space separated list of packagenames for the apps that are disabled when "Use blacklist" is set to true. You can add as many apps as you like using the package name.
Title text size: Text size for the notification title (What is shown in folded notifications).
Body text size: Text size for all the other text that is shown in unfolded notifications.
Only 1 notif per app: When an app adds a new notification, old ones are automatically removed if this option is enabled.
Show the clock. Will show a clock over the notifications.
Remove widget title: Will totally hide and disable the widget title and clear all notifications button.
Transparent widget title: Will hide but not disable the widget title and clear all notifications button.
Hide clock if there are more than...: Will hide hte clock when there are more than the selected umber of notifications. The clock will appear again when the notifications are cleared.
Swap title and subtitle: Notifications have a ticker text, that briefly appears in the notification bar. This is the title. Then they have the text that appears when you unfold the notification bar. Sometimes they contain different text. Enabling this option will exchange both values. I prefer to have this set to enabled, but you can choose.
Color for UI elements: Color for the buttons and title.
Color for notifications: Color for the text in the nofications, and the notification icons if the coloured option is selected in "Icon type".

Feedback is really appreciated.
I want to publish this on the market at some point and (maybe) add a premium version with extended theme support.
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible of any damage derived from the use of this software.
History
v1. First Release.
v2. -Now the "X" notification clear button works.
-Transparency and color added to widget. Will be configurable at some point.
-New Background, easier to configure in the future.
-Configuration utility planned.
v3. -Color filters per application (Not configurable yet, but system notifications appear in orange)
-Higher compatibility (The application sends a notification at start that is scanned to find the correct fields)
v4.
*IF UPDATING, YOU WILL NEED TO UNINSTALL OLD VERSION FIRST*
-Now widget only shows the last notification for each app. Clicking the widget banner will show the Notification Browser app, with all the notification history.
-Main app now uses different colors depending on the origin of the notification.
- Now only the settings utility is missing. There you may choose color and text size for notifications, amongst other things
v5
-Following nuttsak advices (Thanks, man!), I removed the trash bin and again all notifications appear on the widget.
-Clicking the notification opens the activity and removes it from the widget list, but not from the app list.
-Fixed a bug that made that the wrong activity was launched when the notification was pushed.
-Settings will be added after christmas, so Merry Christmas to all.
v6
*IF UPDATING, YOU WILL NEED TO UNINSTALL OLD VERSION FIRST*
-Now notifications are expandable. Press on the notification to see extended info and actions. Press again to fold the notification. Buttons do the following: Launch action, Delete notification, delete all notifications from the same app.
-Used the app icon for notification. Old code is there, so when configuration utility is done, it will be user choice.
-Fixed date to match phone country style.
-Fixed some bugs.
v7
-Settings working. To change settings, tap the header of the widget, and then press the small settings icon (only works when it is blue).
-Available settings at the moment:Widget background style, background opacity, icon type, text size.
v8.
-Fixes some Application not responding errors
-Easier to set up.
v9.
Fixed small bug in v8
v10.
-Supports notifications without ticker text(including Gtasks). Due to this, I had to filter out the OS messages, like "wifi network found" and such because some of them were flooding the app. Notifications with no text at all (Like phone call in progress) do not show.
-New icon
v11.
-Notification behaviour reverted to v9. Notifications without ticker text don't appear anymore, as many ghost notifications were being shown.
-Configurable colours for notifications.
-Notification title and subtitle can now be swapped.
-Fixed some bugs.
TODO: Add a clock that will show when no notifications are present, (suggested by makejau).
v12.
-Added clock. The clock can be configured to disappear when a number of notifications appear (Gràcies per la suggerència, makejau!).
-Option to only show the last notification for each app added.
v13.
-Fixes error with multiple widgets - Only the most recent widget was being refreshed.
v14.
-Option to hide widget title, as suggested by skratch1702.
v15.
-Option to make title invisible while retaining functionality.
-Duplicated notifications are not added to the list.
-Should work on JB Lockscreen.
v16.
-Added basic app filtering. I will make this easier to use at some point. this is to check if it works or not.
Go to options. Activating the "Use blacklist" option enables it. Then add the package name of the app to "Blacklisted apps".
For example, for tasker you need to add net.dinglisch.android.taskerm to the list. Add the package names separated by spaces.
How to obtain package names?
Option 1: Go to play store and check the http address. It's there between "id=" and "&"
Option 2: Use titanium and click on the app. Then click on the yellow text with the app name. You get the package name for that app.
There are many other ways.
Default value is "com.android.providers.downloads android"
The first one (com.android.providers.downloads) is the download manager. The second one(android) is the system, to avoid "Wifi found", "Usb connected","choose keyboard" and so on.
This option only stops new notifications from registering in the widget, doesn't delete old ones.
-Option to use the icon that appears inside the notification as the icon. For example, in Gmail or whatsapp, when you unfold the notification drawer you see the contact picture. Enabling "Use notification icon" allows you to use that icon instead of the standard one.
v17.
Sorry for all the small updates of today!
-Small bug fix with "remove widget title".
v18.
-Improved clock responsiveness.
-Now widget can be horizontally resized in stock launcher.
v19.
-Improved compatibility.
-Tapping the clock opens main app.
-Shadow added to some elements.
-Battery level shown in widget (Enable in settings).
v20.
-Bugs fixed: Battery decimals, battery arrow, FC when service disabled, Problems with notification text.
v22.
-ADW theme support. Please send feedback.
-Blacklist with app selector. The old text based mode is still functional, because system services cannot be shown there, so you'll need to add them by hand.
-Privacy mode list. Choose apps there and instead of showing the notification content, they will show "New notification". This is useful if widget is in lockscreen.
-Revamped settings screen.
-New bugs! I expect lots of new bugs, because there are lots of changes in this version. Please, report if you find any. This version is not in the Play store, I'll wait a couple of days to find bugs before uploading it.
v23.
-Fixed some bugs that made the clock or the notification list to freeze.
-Added a new clock. At some point it will be configurable.
v24.
-LauncherPro icon themes supported.
-Font for the clock can be changed. Roboto fonts are included by default. If you want to use extra fonts, put the .ttf files in a folder called "fonts" in the sdcard.
-New permissions needed: Phone and wifi state.
-Possibility to show wifi and phone signal in the widget, for those who want to hide the notification bar. I don't know how precise the measurements are. I only know that it worked in my phone.
v25.
-Possibility to hide the AM/PM indicator in the clock.
It seems a cool idea :good:
Same functions with the app Notification History (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.evanhe.nhfree).

The app listed doesn't work on some (a lot) Galaxy devices.
Sent from the Mars Rover.
The idea of this app is to be a widget. I didn't try notification history, but it doesn't seem to be a widget.
Just what I was looking for. Although v4 might be a step back. Need to have an option to display last or all notifications.
My use for this app is when I have news alerts to capture all of them in a widget so that I don't have to open the app. Displaying just the last one is pointless.
Could use an option to hide the trash icon and clicking on the app icon to dismiss it from the widget would be nice, that would allow a little bit more space for text.
Keep up the hard work, look forward to future improvements.

Thanks,it is my first app, so i am slow on development. I intend to add a configuration utility, and I am trying all functionality on different versions. Thanks for all your suggestions.
At some point I'll add the option to remove the notification on click, so I'll be able to remove the trash can.

Thank you for the update.
Couple of thoughts:
1. Option for date/time format 24HR/12HR MM/DD/YYYY vs DD/MM/YYYY
2. Leave the app icon as it is, forcing it to a blue/green color doesn't look very good.
3. Option to display the app name and app process (xxx.xxx.xxx) I don't think the process name of the app is necessary at all.
4. Option to display the bottom portion of an alert per app. Some apps display the same information in both positions of the alert, so you get the same text twice (or don't display the second portion of an alert at all, although the problem is some app put the text in the bottom portion vs the top, one of the sports apps when you get an alert the scores only display on the bottom of the alert)
5. Widget design more like Google Now, seems as the 'card' style layout is the cool thing now a days, might make the app more visually appealing.
Really do like the app, keep it up!
Not sure if this is possible but perhaps a option to clear notifications in the pull down automatically....? Since I have them listed in a widget I won't/don't need/want to see them there. Also some of the notifications are clickable (action) and some are not. Is this a limit of the sdk?
Great app and if this is your first app.... Dev... You got a bright future.
Keep at it.
Take care,
Johnny

I didn't find a way to delete the notification on status bar. About the action on notifications, here is some explanation about how it works. The android OS has a pool of PendingIntent. A PendingIntent is a package that launches an application with some settings embedded, for example, to show gmail with an specific mail form the mailbox. These Intents are recycled. When the notification disappears, the OS may reuse them, so now the pendingintent does a different thing. So for old PendingIntents, sometimes the action may be different to the intended one. there is no way to know what the pendingintent will do when executed, only the OS knows. That's why some notifications don't work when clicked.
What do you guys think about the new version?
For every version, old options are there, only disabled. When the configuration utility is done, you may choose the behaviour you want for the widget. In this version I used the app icon instead of a tinted notification icon. This means that now it has colours, but market notifications, for example, always show the market icon. Before this, they may show the "download" icon, or the "app installed" icon. This, in a future, will be configurable too.
I'll try to make the widget background configurable, too, so it may look more like google now.
Hi. I tried to install v6 but I get this error:

hello, i tried to move notifications to lockscreen without success... i think lockscreen are keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml (framework-res.apk), but im not sure about notifications: are in statusbar.xml?
how I can access the class "notification" (in . java) to say: send notification to keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml (as usual) and send to statusbar.xml?
i like to add notifications in my lockscreen, and avoid to join. Android recommends join same app notifications, but when app is messaging app i like individual notification for each message.
Dev, have you seen the NOTIF app here on XDA? It seems like your apps together would be a real nice concept.

If I copy the file to sdcard and try to install it I get the error too that it is not a valid zip file.
Thanks!

Try to download this again, because I tried the apk and it works for me. I hope you can fix it.

Here I present a program called Notification Browser. It will show a list of all received notifications and tries to extract the info and show it as a list. Also a widget is included. Tapping the notification should start the corresponding intent and tapping the garbage bin icon should delete the notification from the list. The idea was to be able to have a full screen launcher and even then having easy access to notifications.
For it to work, you need to go to accessibility settings and enable Notification browser.
BUGS: LOTS.
-FIXED:The X to delete all notifications doesn't work on the widget.
-Slow start.
-Notifications are lost on reboot.
TO DO:
-Fix bugs
-Themes for the widget.
In some devices, the notification title and extended data might not be found. In this case only the ticker text that appears briefly when a new notification appears is shown. An external program to fix this is in my list of to-dos .
I only tried this in a Xperia U and Xperia neo V, and works in both with stock ICS rom. Tried in JB SGSIII and didn't show the extended info.
Feedback is really appreciated.
I want to publish this on the market at some point and add a premium version with theme support.

Nice idea will test and let you have some feedback keep at it..
Ok. downloaded v6 again with another browser and installation worked
OK, new version is up. Now you can configure the widget a bit. I will rest a bit this weekend, so don't expect any more updates until monday. I think this is nearly ready to hit the market, so I'll check how uploading to market works.
The idea is to have a free version (what you guys are testing now , thank you all) and a premium version more configurable, for these people that want a perfect desktop.
Have a nice weekend
I'm working on this concept for a better android browser at the moment. It's based on Chrome for Android, but materialised.
Tell me what you think.
IMPORTANT: This is only a concept, I am no dev. Just to make that clear
White theme mobile view:
Picture 2: Google Search + Url-bar would be animated like this
http://media2.giga.de/2015/02/play-store-movies-toolbar.gif
Picture 5: shows taskbar + tabswitcher
Dark theme mobile view:
White theme tablet view:
Settings, dark tablet view and other stuff coming soon.
Updated screens:
white theme:
dark theme:
What I imagine for the settings:
Basic settings:
- Startpage
- Search Engine
- Autofill
- Password settings
- Security
- Zoom settings
(maybe more will be added)
Advanced settings:
- Tabs: Switch between "Recent Apps View" and "Standard Browser View"
- Bookmarks: Switch between list and tile view
- Exit menu: Activate/Deactivate Advanced Exit menu, which contains
close all tabs
clear cache/cookies
clear search history
- Switch theme
(maybe more will be added)
Updated the white theme, which now has a tinted bar - for the dark theme, does anyone know how I can get the fitting color code for the tinted bar? For the white I just took from an app with white background.
Also edited two of the pictures (for each theme):
background now darkens and no shadows
Looks good ?
Added more details to tab view, one approach with floating action button to open new tab
Incognito tabs would be grey and always ordered after normal tabs
as in normal chrome there would be also the option to list tabs in recent view instead
Looks good, keep at it.
More work on the tab concept done, applied some changes:
1. Maximum tabs increased to 12
2. If only one tab is open, there would be no tab shown in the tab view.
3. If you open one tab, there would be two tabs shown in the tab view (current tab and new tab)
Pictures for the dark theme:
space between tabs when there are four tabs next to each other (from 10 tabs on) is not perfect yet.
Reworked the older pictures and started working on settings + bookmarks.
"Changelog":
1. Statusbar icons don't darken with background
2. Fixed some wrong sized squares in tabview
3. Added tint to dark theme statusbar
4. Added bookmark menu
5. Added settings menu
Settings white theme:
bookmarks white theme:
updated pictures added to post 2
The dark theme looks pretty good man
New idea of the tabsview: Always one page on screen, indicators on the bottom show how many tabs are open. Opening animations is a circle to square animation (like app drawer) from the top left to the bottom right.
Also changed the first page, it's now simpler. Instead of icons on the bottom you have now words (inspired by new samsung touchwiz) and you can swipe thru tabs, bookmarks and synchro (need a better name, it means open tabs on other devices), so no new pages are needed for that.
@xPr0metheus there is no news or concepts? I really liked what you showed

I am working on a concept for a basic app layout - don't know when I will be able to show something. There are still many questions open how I want some things to look like.

Wow, that looks great. I hope google goes this way with the browser in the future.
Created a new topic for all my coming concepts → join me if you like
Looks great
Very nice idea.
Simple launcher based on aosp launcher3 following Enrico's style!
DEPRECATION
I tried this and love it, you deserve a bump for sure. Great as a lightweight alternative to Lawnchair. Icons and hiding apps are what i care about most, and this performs better than AOSP. I left a review on my Google account; only thing I would like to see improved is none of the primary theme colors have enough contrast with the accent color applied. I explained a little better in my review, but other than that, it's perfect.
Surprised this isn't getting more attention. Lawnchair's hot, and deservingly so, but it's heavy on lower ram phones and a lot of it's focus is on incorporating all the cool fancy Google/Pixel stuff . Yours is great, light , improved AOSP version, which is equally as appealing to me. Thanks for this..
sure looks very promising!
keep up the good work :good:

Me too
LaunchEnr 1.4.1 released (will be available on playstore soon)
CHANGES:
Fixes to theme
Fixes to source code
Simplify hidden app implementation
I honestly had a very low expectations on this, but that expectations was immediately gone after I tried the launcher. It's actually very good and well-done.
While it is slim on features, I still find it customisable enough. The ability to hide apps is a great addition to cut down the clutter in the drawer. The "Board" feature, while a reminiscent of the "Shelf" on OnePlus' Launcher, is very useful for taking quick notes and a much quicker speed dial replacement.
tl;dr It's an amazing launcher even though it is still in early stage of development

Won't open on Pixel XL 8.0
Sent from my Google Pixel XL using XDA Labs
If there are custom column number customization, it would be perfect, as I got this huge phone on me, and I don't feel good for seeing only 4 columns which made icons on my phone looks really big.
Nice app... Ability to adjust icon size would be nice.. it's too huge at the moment
Got bad review on Play Store. Force closed at first use.
Can you make the beta available in Germany?
