[APP] Advanced Clock Widget

Hi all. I just posted to the market this widget which basically shows the clock with current date, battery status, next alarm, network operator and more. Most of it is configurable (which information to show, which color to use). I will add more customizations in the future.
P.S. it seems that on Galaxy S widget has some issues, pleasepleaseplease contact me before giving "1 star" for this, i don't have a galaxy s and i'm trying to understand whats going wrong.
If you want to give it a try here is the appbrain page:

And the o"fficial" one:

Hey, Thanks for your effort Good Application so far. Works great on my Hero

not bad at all man. working on N1

love this but is it possible to NOT show the clock??`

I'm gonna add an option to show date instead of clock on next release, i could also permit hiding the clock completely, thanks for feedback!

Nice App - running fine on my Evo 4g - really like all the custom options

@johnuopini hey the time is showing incorrectly when used as a widget in i9000..Its intermitent, not rated yet.If you need any help I should be able to help you

Thanks for calling me a liar in the market description. On my galaxy s it always runs eating 10mb of ram even if the widget it not on the home screen. You admit you've never tested this on galaxy s. Maybe you should try your app on more varied hardware before calling your potential customers liars
I seems like anyone time anyone tries to report a bug in the market you just edit the description saying that's not true

Hi Ben,
first of all i've never used the term "liar" or anything near that, maybe i wrote that its not true that the widget eats memory or stays in background if nothing its on the screen and that's because i have tested it on a galaxy s (info on the widget its outdated), i have many friends from google that are using it on nexus s which is quite similar so im quite sure about that. Probably it takes 5 to 10 minutes once removed to autokill itself but it will disappear.
Moreover i don't understand people like you who writes "1 star" comments like that. Most of the widget in the market, i would say 90% of them, have background processes that are there even if no widget is on screen, does this make them "1 star" just for that or you think this could be in some way linked to Android APIs? I don't think this is fair considering that you are not paying anything for the widget, i don't see your comment as very useful for the community, that's all.
I could go into technical details and explain you why this is happening so often but there is a lot of docs around.
Finally, if you are not using my widget, just uninstall it.
Regards.

Yeah any app, widget etc that runs when not open or in use I do rate 1 actually. Google market allows users to rate however they see fit
No other widgets on my phone run when not in use. They dont have to be uninstalled

Try a reboot with widget removed and you will see that its not there anymore, or wait 5 minutes and, again, you will se that the process is not there, im SURE i have tested it yesterday on a Galaxy S.
Anyway no problem with the "really not useful" 1 star comment but an email before rating would have been nice, maybe one day you will develop some free software and understand what i mean.
Ciao.

I rather like your widget (just got the paid version), but there are a few niggles...
1) The date format flips between US (December 11) and European (11 December) depending on how long it is. Perhaps link that format to the global settings?
2) Might be nice to be able to create your own formats, or add a few text areas.
3) Personal thing, the year on its own might be nice.
4) Not sure what's wrong with the font selection, but I think you're working on that already.
These are by no means major, this is a lovely app (run on a rooted Galaxy S2).

Hi,
do you have the same issue with fixed location? is location&security->use wireless networks enabled on your android options?

Great widget, thank you! One request: Could you incorporate a color picker such as the one by Devmil:[Library] Color picker (Open Source)
Basically, I would like to be able to type in the hex color code rather than fiddling with the sliders.
Will be buying the pro version soon. Thanks again!

Great widget, I paid for pro version.
Can you explain me how to get short format of #NEXTALARM#?
I'd like to show next alarm as "Alarm in 15:45" but I get "Alarm in 15 hours 45 minutes".
Simple alarm time would be also nice as "Next alarm at 05:45"

Always on display limited on A8

Hi everyone,
I posting here to point out how limited is the Always on display feature on this phone.
Before getting in the subject, what is Always on Display (aod) ?
AOD is a native Samsung feature (it does exist on other phone with different names) that allow smartphones to show informations on the screen when it's off. This feature is useful not to have to turn the screen so many times in the day to check the notifications and hour. This is a feature made possible with AMOLED screens allowing black pixels to stay off and those prevent the screen using much battery.
Now that everyone know what we are talking about, I can show you what I mean and where I want to go with this thread. Here is a screen from a Samsung Galaxy s8:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And here on from the A8 :
What appears is that we can't use images even if it is teased on the play store description of the aod app. Here a screen from the play store :
And we cannot use the edge clock.
Finally, the number of backgrounds and customisations is very poor : a very few amount of colors and 4 backgrounds.
I've been looking for a way to use the edge clock, or an image and couldn't find any.
The only partial solution I found for images is an app called Custom AOD
If you have anything to add, or any suggestion, feel free to comment

Thanks for the info. I just bought an A8 through Virgin, I'm in western Canada and hoping to get the update this month...the wifi reliability has been terrible and I've done all the troubleshooting I can. I don't want to send it for warranty (only had it 3 weeks) until I get Oreo and see if it was a software issue that was resolved with the Oreo update.
:good:

About customisation with Oreo: I find it even more restrictive. the background isn't an option anymore. We don't have edge clock (and probably never will since it has been made to fit with the curved screen). Also we still cannot pin images. The only step forward is the access to themes through the store, but let me tell you a thing: it's actually always the same style with just different colors and a different image (that you cannot change by yourself ).
I'm being so negative because I see a lot of potential, I'm always disappointed with those features that doesn't allow personalisation but don't get me wrong, I really like AOP ?

the oreo update is out for every a8 variant other than a530w... we're both stuck on nougat ?
also yes the wifi is VERY bad, i only get half the speed of my wifi and sometimes it even disconnects
this is not a warranty problem either, its supposed to be like that apparently because i sent my phone to warranty and they said it was a software problem...

Mh so right now AOD app features are basically same as high-end devices ones lol (expect edge clock; not sure if it needs just the SecProductFeature string put or if it needs even all the Edge apks/frameworks). If you wanna get some more features (even if I doubt there are lol) open /system/etc/floating_feature.xml file, search for the AOD Feature string (SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_FRAMEWORK_CONFIG_AOD_ITEM) and delete "-fhd_limit," feature.

Thanks for the idea, I'm not rooted tho, I'll wait until the garanty expire before doing so, but I keep the idea in mind. My hope for that feature goes to Android P(if we get it .. in about a year ?) , they can clearly improve it, it's already cool, but it feels so limited speaking of customisation.

It's just as it should be lol, if Samsung continues to add more **** like gifs or more colorful ux on AOD it will drain lot more of battery even tho the phone goes in Doze, and 10% more of battery isn't bad to have

Have you got your Magic UI 2.1 update?

UK user here, I manually updated my PCT-L29 C432 to 9.1.0.229 via HSTool and so far my experience with Magic UI 2.1 has been really good. Here are a few notes:
- UI responsiveness is improved, animations are smoother with no more stuttering observed.
- App loading speeds seem faster, everything is almost instant. Although the phone was already fast to begin with, now it feels like I never have to wait for anything when launching apps.
- Swipe gestures feel more accurate, I don't need to reattempt any gestures like opening the app switcher or side-swiping to go back.
- Mis-touches are reduced, in the past if I wiped my screen with a cloth it would pick it up as a touch gesture. This now happens less often.
- Desktop Mode connection is much more stable. Previously even if I connected my phone using an HDMI cable it would frequently flicker and the signal would eventually cut out. This seems to have been fixed.
- Folders now display 3 X 4 icons instead of 3 X 3, which makes apps much more accessible.
- No incompatibilities observed with previous apps (yet).
- Battery life is slightly improved.
And a few other things to be aware of:
- App suggestions are now permanently displayed at the top of the App Drawer, and the option to hide them is no longer available.
- The standalone Flashlight app is gone (it was redundant anyway).
- Breaks compatibility with some previous third-party themes, in particular "Dark Mode" themes.
- I haven't received the AR Measurement app, although it was supposed to be included in 2.1? ?

App suggestions that cannot be removed: very very very annoying.
On the other hand, I use the "standard" home screen style without a drawer so I don't care.

Also, I'm not seeing the option for "Dual-View Video" anywhere.

I am in UK.

Nope still no update for the v20 Indian Users. If you check the honor club app it says that we should be receiving it on the 24th of July. But to be honest it will be by the end of July or probably first week of August. Coming from oneplus phones I am really dissappointed with Honor for such slow updates.

Do you know what specific build number it is? This should be the three digits after "9.1.0".

It's 9.1.0.201 for me.

Updated last night 2.1.201, without measureing app.

Got mine today. Very nice. So far noticed improved performance. Not that it was slow in any way, to begin with! Seems quicker with the animations. And the navigation gestures also seem smoother. I like it.

Got mine, first it was 9.1.0.200, and now 9.1.0.230, both 4.3GB, through OTA.

It's available on chc csc, but if you use Google dialer ussd codes, android 11 stops them from working so now I can't enable wwd csc. I'm going up downgrade to 10. I lost 5g and many features. Do not like it

I'm on 9860 rooted

It is available on the TGY variant now.

I updated on the 4th of February but so far the battery usage appears to be similar although it's early days.
The only hiccup so far for me is the amount of apps in the folder that shows on one page i.e 3x4 now, but that's no deal breaker.
Sorry but I do not use Goodlock or any of the plug ins.
The finger print scanner appears faster and more accurate.
I like the way I can tap on the date and time on my lockscreen which now then shows my calendar , music and weather.
All early days.

Call quality is the same.
I mainly use mobile data but WiFi is strong.
Network signal is the same.
I turn my phone off at night and charge then so I'm not sure on charging times.
I use Spotify Premium coupled with Samsung Buds Live and the quality remains very good although I'm no audiophile in any sense of the word.
The new volume bar reminds me a little bit of iOS !

Thank you for your feedback.
Lets see when would I get it in Pakistan

Few bugs for me
- Night mode shots take WAY longer to process
- Camera apparently taking brighter pics than before , I have to always reduce brightness slider for faces
- Gallery straight from GCAM crashes, very slow to load when you delete pics
- Goodlock Multistar, Clockface, Pantastic and Quickstar working with their updated versions
- Battery life almost same

I decided to do factory reset since I'm noticing fps drops in games.
Wow, there is a huge difference now. The phone is literally flying and the games just runs perfect for me now.
I really recommend it if you notice performance drops.

General [TB-J706F] P11 Pro global ROM update S620150_211226

I just received an OTA update (51MB), only in one of the two tablet.
I saw the ROM is available also in lolinet TB-J706F_S620150_211226.
It contains:
December 5, 2021 Security update
Cam app version is updated
After downloading update and restarting I saw a notification with Google Play system update, I checked Settings -> Security -> Google Play system update and it said I needed to restart so I restarted.
I had to repeat this three times and finally Google Play system update passed from March 1, 2021 to December 1, 2021.

I noticed with the update the luminosity levels changed.
In the tablet not updated if I set luminosity at minimum it's hardly visible, that's nice if you want to use HDMI output, in the updated tablet it's quite higher.

Ah damn, you are saying with the new update the minimum brightness is higher?
I do want to get that tablet to read in dark environment, so I guess I should stay in stock Android 10 just in case?

The previous version was already Android 11, to be honest I am not sure if I would be able to read with the previous lowest setting.
I'll check tonight how do they feel compared, meanwhile you can see a picture in my second post but it's a bit too exposed, so it's actually darker than that.

Yeah in your pic it's quite easy to see the difference. Have you tried turning the auto bightness on/off or doing a factory reset of the tablet to see if it's still different?
Also can you tell which ROM version the working tablet (the one with lower brightness) is running?
I might get the tablet soon, and since I like very dark display I'd like to avoid the issue you have

I did not try a factory reseet, switched auto brigthness on and off many times.
All with Android 11:
TB-J706F_S620022_210910_ROW Super Dark
TB-J706F_S620108_211124_ROW Did not get this update
TB-J706F_S620150_211226_ROW Less dark
Quite strange I did not get the update on the second tablet yet.

Thanks for the info!
Did both tablet have the same base/ota version before the update?

Yes, same software version and same region selected.

Wow that's super weird
Maybe they are pushing OTA at random to avoid too much bandwidth being used?
But then the new ROM isn't even recent....

I just got the tablet, and now I understand why they increased the minimum brightness, because grays are super nasty, burn in all over the place, like the very early AMOLED screens...
Can I ask you one more thing? (Sorry for all the questions)
Can you check at what level the first tablet is the same as the second one please? (You can see the exact % in the screen settings)

It's around 10% but checking on settings app contrast is much higher in the new version, I'll have to check later using the same image on both.

Thanks! Have you checked the different color modes, to see if they changed something there too?

I checked with Display Tester from PlayStore.
1% of new ROM is same as 12% of old one.
I am using DCI-P3 Standard on both.
Even with same perceived luminosity i like more how it looks in the new ROM but I think it depends from the fact that in the tablet with the old ROM I have a tempered glass over and in the other one nothing.

Thanks again for the testing!
I'm hesitant of updating the firmware as I really like the minimum britghness of the 210910 version, grays are nasty but for night reading it's just perfect.
I will see how 12% + darknening filter software looks compared to real 1%, if the oled screen behaves correctly the difference should be minimal.

After test, it appears 12% + dark screen filter looks exactly the same as real 1%, so at least the tablet's oled screen is behaving correctly on that
But like your second tablet, the update doesn't seems to be pushed on it...
I wonder if there is a region we can set to force it.

Hello,
I just received the P11 pro and before rooting it, I'm wondering if I should update to Android 11?
I know that on Samsung S7+ (I have tried it before) people are not happy with Android 11, more space, slower... Is it really better on Lenovo?
(It offers me TB-J706F_S620150_211226 0043_Q00067_ROW)

@Daxorp I did not notice any performance difference between 10 and 11 but I did not run any benchmark, just casual usage.
One thing to note is that with the version you have in OTA you are updated to December security patches vs what you have now.
@Stremon
I checked one hour ago system update and I got the OTA update also on my second tablet but did not run it yet.

omg just installed this through OTA now my netflix is L3 ? how do you guys restore it back?

Did it ask for permission or force the update?
