Hi All
Apologies if this has been asked already, new to this forum, just wondered is there any how i can get the animated flip clock widget installed and working on my htc desire tmobile (uk) not the lame ones from the market but the actual one from htc like on hero, have tried installing a zip file that floating around from htc hero, gsm , it opens and tries install but says cannot install?
Thanks
that clock should be already installed on your phone just try adding the htc clock then select the style you are after
i think this is what u are after
let me know if this was it
thanks
I also wondered the same when I got mine - if you go to add a new widgit to your home page and add the clock made by HTC, then at the bottom you can flick through to choose your style, the flick clock is about 3 in.
Hope that helps.

HTC removed the flip animation that was previously in the HTC Hero flip clock due to the lag it caused, it hasn't been added back on any subsequent more powerful phones since.
The flip clock is there but it isn't animated, the numbers just change.

yep thats it, dont really make SENSE removing the flip animation on a 1ghz processor, just a thought.. why do they show the actual flip animation for htc desire which can be seen on the advert played in uk??
Hi,
anybody knows where to find it flip clock?
Now I see why all the original roms with HTC Sense don't have the flipping animation...
There an app(or widget, I suppose) called flip clock, which gives you an flip clock that actually flip when it's ticking. And there's a hotfix I found on a Chinese android forum, but after I flashed it through recovery, the RosieUtility FC...

You probably need to flash the zip file via recovery

it is. on every new phone after desire with desire... we hadn't luck i guess
edit. i didn't saw the date, sorry
i've actually asked that question before haha. just download the file found in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10983800&postcount=14
make sure you have the clock widget already on your homescreen and then just flash the .zip file through recovery and you'll have a flippy clock in no time!
Argh this broke my clock widget! It's just blank and can't remove or uninstall it.

HELP ME PLZ.....!!!!!!!!
Thanks(sry my englsh very bad)
this animation was removed in "second series" of htc firmware, they ware removed in update that gave us the performance boost and made hero more responsive, etc. In my case i don't miss it, but in my eyes its a "scam" from htc side, because all htc videos about hero, contains this animation, and phone doesn't

yah thanks for reply ^^? i was think my Hero problem with flip clock little sad for it(>"<)
everyday waiting fw 2.0 for hero ^~^?
who can help me,i have bugs with weather widget big icon in home screens
the weather widget problem is probably just your ROM related, i would suggest doing a factory wipe via amon ra's recovery and then flashing a new rom (preferably modaco's 2.9 at the time of writing or rooter HTC Generic 2.73.405.38, thats what i use atm)
I'm looking to get a Desire, still haven't managed to have a play on one (everywhere seems to be out of stock) and just have 2 quick questions before I order one:
- Does the flip clock have the flip animation like on Sense UI on Windows Mobile (ala Leo/Topaz etc?) or can this be enabled?
- Does the phone have homescreen weather animations? (Again like Manila 2.1/2.5). I've only ever seen clouds go across the screen, but do you see rain and the wiper etc?
Thanks in advance.

1- what you mean flip animation? does the time update by flipin the 'time cards'? if so then yes it does flip
2. yes it does have all the animations
The animation I mean is like this one: (@ 0:50) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11wKmsnNnT0&feature=related

ok on my desire the clock updates so fast that theres no flip animation
i havent had a sunny weather yet so didnt notice the sun kind of glowing yet, but when its raining or its cloudy the animation works fine
Flip animation still hasn't returned to HTC sense, the HD2 had it though so maybe an issue with Android made them decide to leave it out.
I am Running DeFrost,
And Yes its amazing!!
But a question that i cannot find a straight answer too,
Is there lack of Widgets for FroYo or is it the Firmware?
Or
Is it as simple as an App that needs downloading and installing and you gets your Widgets?
I miss just a couple of Widgets, One is my Emails
I had my Live and Gmail on 2 Different Pages on the Home Screen,
And Some Toggles, (Oh and the odd Clock)
Now i know i can do the Toggles easy with switch pro widget and extended controls widget
But what about my Email Widget :-(
There is no Sense UI in FroYo rom's so no htc widgets, you can try DJDROID rom which has Sense UI on Froyo

Hey guys!
So the file that has been extracted from the Desire roms has been floating around the forum, which lets the clock flip whenever the time changes, but not when the phone is unlocked.
I am running JT_DesireZ_Beta 1.1, and the flip clock that is in this particular rom flips whenever the phone is unlocked. I have fallen in love with this, and was wondering if this is possible in any other Sense UI rom!
Thanks for any input!
The one I'm using with Calukin's ROM flips when it's unlocked... I didn't realize there was one that didn't.
Yeah, his do that by default because they're built into the rom.
If you try adding those to any other rom, they won't flip when unlocked. If you run any other sense roms, try it out.
I have two different .zip files for the clock, but they're both identical in size... I couldn't find anything else out by searching.
Hi, can anyone tell me how i am supposed to use a theme for widgetlocker at all please?
I downloaded 3 files and chose the option of install and add, but there is only my phone lock showing, no icons to choose from and no wallpaper that was supposed to come with it.
I have no idea where the file has saved to or anything, and well being new to all of this android stuff i m a bit confused....
thanks for any help you can give me.
Click the following-
Lots of themes
Google is your Friend.
Hope this helps.
mmm thanks for that buddy.
Just seems odd that i have done the above already but nothing has changed bizarrely.
Only the slider has appeared and i cannot it seems that i can see the custom made icons that were in the package.

Long press on a slider, or press menu then add slider and you can choose theme. It doesn't change the theme as soon as you install.

Sense3 ring widget locker theme
Hello just thought i'd upload a widget locker theme i made and use,
pretty simple to edit,
just put it in sd:data/com.teslacoil.widgetlocker/themes and it shud come up on the app
ive attached screenshots and zip file hopefully they work
and yes im a noob lol
How do you assign the lock homie wsllpaper? I copied the the theme to correct location & naming convention is right but canae see paper? Do you have to save wallpaper to download folder and assign from there or am i losing the plot?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
the wallpapers separate you can download this attachment
that was just a screenshot of my lockscreen on my phone
theres an option in widget locker settings under look & feel where you can select a wallpaper tick alternative wallpaper and select whatever you want
Is there any way you can make a theme just like this without the lock icon in the middle? Thanks.
Hi
Quick question RE: Widget locker
I've only ever used this biefly on my old Desire.....this was some time back so my memory is a little hazy
i seem to remember that on occasions that it would either flash up the standard HTC lock screen or require me to unlock one then the other.....or something similar to this
Does this lockscreen work without the above issues (or indeed, any issues) on the S2 ?
is there any lag or any other nasties ??
Cheers

Works fine on mine so far. always showing the widgetlocker except after a fresh reboot. slight lag on the slider at times. my only concern was battery life but it doesn't seem to affect much.
