any luck restarting the phone with advance killer turn off? u might have changed the setting to automatically kill the sense widget. also try removing the clock widget off and putting it back on. if u go to advanced task killer and press menu>setting uncheck autostart. then restart the phone and lets see what happens
i've done all that actually got rid off everything i had set up in advanced task killer, have tried getting rid of the widget and putting it back on a million times and it just deosn't want to work. i've tried everything and i have no idea why it isn't working, but it looked so nice when it did.
the widget you want is under 'clock'. so, on the home page you want to put it, hit menu, add to home, widget, clock (not analog clock) then hit the little arrow button at the bottom until you get to the flip clock with weather on it. select it. presto. you're done.

yeah k, i know that look at my screen shot.
anyone else wanna try this is so annoying.
BUMP for a problem that will probably affect someone other than myself.
hey mods can you guys move this to general or android development, maybe someone who can help me will see it there, and i would rather not make a new topic in a different thread. it's just really infuriating i have literally tried everything it hasn't been working right since saturday so i figured i would ask on here after a few days. this has to have happened to somebody at somepoint, it must be something simple i'm missing.
this used to happen on my G1 ..all u have to do is delete the widget from the home screen / restart phone / add widget again
Thank you will try.

Didn't work. Anyone else? Really like the widget I just wish it would work...

Reflash whatever ROM you are running over the top of your current ROM in recovery. You shouldn't have to wipe to do this and it should restore your clock.
If it still persists, then wipe and then flash your ROM in recovery.
under the setting part of the widget, try and set it to a specific location, not 'my location'. it may be that it can't find you. especially if you're on a wifi network
i'm not running a rom, haven't flashed anything. all i did was do unrevoked to get root for a couple of things, and i have it set to miami. with gps on and everything. though i am on 3g now and no difference.
all the widget has is the time, no date or anything and it says miami, no clouds no sun nothing.
Try downloading a rom..take the weather widget out place it on ur sd card install via astro ..
Verify your auto syncing it turned on.

The defy has 6. And a home page. Im not using two of them how do i remove them? Tmobile was no help. 2nd question is there something that can rotate my screen upside down. ? Thanks for reading
I'm not sure whether you can do it with the stock launcher (though you should be able to) but I know with LauncherPro you can choose the number of homescreens by pressing Menu, then Preferences > Homescreen Settings.
thanks
I gave it a shot it works well. However i just don't like the home icons. I like the ones that came with it. (3) call. The circle thing and contacts is there any way to get them with launcher pro?
Well, you can change the default icons long-pressing on them. Choose the default ones or find some nice icon online and change it
Thanks
i got it looking good.! i would take a screen shot but i havent Rotted. waiting for 2.2. got everything but is any one having issues with the "Messaging App" the one that shows you email and text and gives you a preview. i cant get it to work says problem loading widget? any one know the deal.......press and hold on home screen,widgets,messages then select all messages and click done. "problem with loading widget.... other then that im at 95% done. 100% loving THIS $hit so glad i moved on from my touch pro II. gotta update my sig but to busy making my Defy cooler

Hi, I am using 2.2 and sometimes my device hangs and reboots itself. When i was in landscape befor then the homescreen is in landscape after auto- reboot. So technically landscape is possible, but how to switch its orientation by yourself is a other question.
Greetings
To make it go to landscape once ur in launcherpro hit the 4 square button then behavior then check auto rotate. U should b good.

After upgrade I seem to have lost the clock and alarm functionality of the home screen clock widget. It opens weather when I press the lower portion of the widget but nothing happens when the upper portion of the widget is pressed. It use to open the alarm and timer functions. But nothing now. Is there a way to restart this service. Please help.
Thanks.

I have the same issue and posted about 3 minutes before you ;-)
I just tested the alarm functionality on my phone and it works fine. I also tested the widget and the top portion opens the clock app and the bottom portion opens the weather widget. I also removed the widget and re-added it. A couple of questions.
1) Did you do the OTA update and was your phone a stock non-rooted phone or is your ROM rooted?
2) If you are rooted, have you tried doing a full format (format & erase, wipe dalvik, manually wipe system/boot/data, etc) and then reloading the ROM?
3) If you are on a stock ROM, have you tried doing a factor reset and see if it was just a bad install of the OTA update. It can happen. Software isn't perfect.

Or you might even want to try removing the widget and putting it back again. I know sometimes it can act funny especially if you installed a ROM and did not re setup your home screen from scratch.
Stock OTA. No root. Tried restarting widget. Still no alarm, timer, etc...
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
Same here. Stock phone upgraded OTA. Widget no longer links to clock app. In fact, the clock app is no longer listed in app screen. Thought that new App Market downloaded from BGR may have been to blame but after uninstalling update the widget still does not call the clock app.

I may be on to something here regarding the broken Clock/Alarm app...
Go to Setting > Applications > Manage Applications > All and scroll down to the "Clock" app. On my DINC2 w/GB, the Clock app is grayed out whereas the other apps are all listed in bright bold white. I checked the entire list and ONLY "Clock" and "CityID" are grayed out like this. There must be a connection, no?

Good eye! I also have this issue and have Clock app greyed out. On the other hand my CityID isn't greyed out and does indeed work. So I believe there has to be a correlation.
After my OTA the clock alarm worked great!
I then installed Beautiful widgets and then gentle alarm and now i can't load alarm when i click the time, i have to load it from a different widget. weird.

More info:
This is what my DINC2 reports for the Clock app:
version 1.00.000.081006.605
Storage 0.00B (for all three Total, Application, Data)
Cache 0.00B
Launch by default- no defaults set
Another user on another forum whose clock app still functions reports that his cache is also zero, but his storage is different for all three, total being 596KB (app 420KB, Data 176KB).
It looks like the clock app just isn't there for some reason.
just clock the numbers on the weather app on the homescreen. brings u to alarm.
I bit the bullet and did a hard reset. Ugh. Still rebuilding but the clock app is working again.
How to do hard reset. I know stupid question. Just don't want to screw anything up.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
I did the hard reset and spent the better part of the day reconfiguring my phone. The clock app did indeed work again. Until I did a battery pull. UGH. Now the clock app is gone again!
I called HTC and they said they are aware of the issue and patch will be forthcoming.
To those thinking about doing a hard reset, you may want to wait since the first battery pull you do will break the clock again.
MY sis' phone started doing this crap after the update...I thought she was just being dense....now I feel bad for doubting her. What idiots let a key function of cellphone like the bloody alarm clock get screwed up? I mean that's something most every single person uses almost daily...and none of their people caught this? It's also making her doubt having gone to an android phone...as she never had a problem like this with the old dumb phones...her last one got ran over by a tractor and still worked minus the broken interior screen. But all key functions still performed flawlessly(again minus the screen) lol.
Think I figured the clock problem out. Had widget locker installed, got tired of it and uninstalled it. Clock function is now back.

Glad yours works. No Widget Locker here and no clock app either.
Mysteriously enough, yesterday the Clock app reappeared in the app drawer and the clock widget started functioning again on my DINC2!
I had updated and installed a few apps yesterday which may have triggered a fix perhaps?
Updated the CNN app
Added GateGuru
Added Priority Pass
Don't know if this is now resolved permanently, something tells me it will only be temporary, but thought I would report this.
The other day I pulled my phone out of my pocket to check the time and was shocked to find all my icons/shortcuts missing. On all 7 screens. I easily restored the items I had on my main home page like retro clock/date, market, internet etc.
The problem that is driving me effing nuts is the toggle switches I had on the 2nd page to the left of home, wifi, 4g, mobile, gps, etc. I cannot find them to add them back. I have gone to add widget>settings> the only 2 items listed are airplane mode and bluetooth and no others. I am not speaking of the power control option in widgets. I have tried to add from widgets, shortcuts, apps and folders. the toggle switches are non existent. Now I just noticed I cannot find the stock clock that comes preloaded on the phone. I use the retro clock from the market anyways but the stock clock is another item i cant use along with the weather page. I can add a shortcut for weather that i need to click to open the weather screen.
seems like a portion or all of sense is effed up or gone. What are my options besides a complete factory reset, assuming that would even fix this issue.
I am running stock rom with all current versions of SW
download from market?
There's lots of toggle widgets in the market.
Understood however getting different ones from the market does not explain where the stock ones went or how to get them back
A factory reset should fix your problem, unless the issue is within system itself. I'd just flash the stock rom over itself, wipe cache and dalvik only and see if that fixes it.

Ok thnx ill most likely end up doing that, I wanted to avoid having to do a factory reset but looks like I dont have much choice.
Another question, there is normally a spot in system info for htc sense version right?
Ok so after looking at running processes I discovered that htc sense is currently a cached background process and I dont have an option to restart it or anything.
Long press the screen where you want to add the widget. The go to Widgets > Get more HTC widgets at the top and the one you are looking for should be in there. I hope this helps.
Thnx. I know how to add widgets and everything else. The problem is when I attempt to add by going to widgets>setrings> the only 2 items that are listed is airplane mode and bluetooth, not the 7 or 8 items that are normally there. I also cant add the stock clock, weather widget or pretty much any of the items that are supposed to be there.
Today I did a side by side comparison with another stock rom evo, ome that works as it should and could not really find anything useful. Mine is simply just missing almost all stock widgets
I found the Widgets under settings. I'm not running stock so I can't duplicate. When my wife gets home I can use hers.
I find a lot just by going through every possible selection. You can find some interesting stuff that way

First of all, please don't kill me for posting questions that have already been answered as I've already tried looking for them but with such a big thread like that of the Paradox ROM, it's just impossible.
1. On the dock, I know it is possible to change the icons for applications. However, whenever I go into Preferences, I don't know which command to put nor how to switch the positions. Also, it is set to show 5 icons but only shows 4. Oh, and whenever I set it to 3, the remainder one doesn't show up on the application drawer.
2. It seems I'm not getting the best out of battery life. Is there something else I need to do or a mod that there is to install?
3. I think that's it for now. .-.
I would post this under the ROM thread but I can't because I'm new and stuff.
Thank you very much in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me out. c:

I use a different Launcher, but... TW 4.5 (which is what is installed) isn't necessarily finished - so yes, you have to manually remove the apps from the dock before you set the dock count to 3.
do you want to show 5 or 3 icons lol. you are asking about both.
5 icons: you have to add the 5th. when you first do, you can't move the application drawer icon, but it will jump to the middle, so just place your other apps accordingly: the one in the 4th position will end in the 5th, the one in the middle will end up in the 4th.
Battery Life - you running LOVE? or are you running mark 2 (can't remember the name of it) I get great life out of LOVE,..
btw - i run the sony ericson launcher (fixed one) and it's awesome lol. seems really snappy, and I just really like the little details (when you throw something on a homescreen away, the garbage can lid actually bounces, and it vibrates along with the bounce) that have been added. They just give a truly finished feel to the launcher.
Hm, lets go with 5.
How can I add the other one? Also, do I just get the launcher from the Market or do I have to flash anything?
I'm running LOVE. I just don't know what to do to it lol
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA
hokay - make sure to select 5 icons in the preferences, go to the app drawer, click the menu softkey, click edit... drag an app to the dock. click save... I wouldn't doubt it if you're forgetting to do that.
It took me a while to find the sony launcher, and I dl'd it at work, so I can get back to you with a Dropbox link tomorrow. sorry, but I'm not burning my phone's data when i only have half a gig a month. It's something you just put onto your phones external (or internal) sd card, and install. super easy. but it's stuck at 5 screens - not modifyable in that sense.
Oh wow, thats easy lol
No problem. Do you also know where I could get the CM7 (or whatever) Launcher?
Btw, thanks a lot for helping!

I just switch home out and replace with ADW. you just drop icons from desktop to the spot where you want or long press and drag off what you don't.
They even have a bar with infinite shortcuts (scrolls) dunno if free one has this one but definitely has the 1 3 5 icon standard launcher.

First, I know this is my first post. I've searched for answers the past hour all over this site and the internet but can't find anything. I successfully rooted and put CM10.1, nightly 12/27. I chose that one since I saw many comments saying that they are having the least issue with that one. Here are some problems I'm having:
1. Google Now is not working. I installed GAPPS twice to make sure it didn't mess up the first time but still no luck. When I hit the microphone icon, I get an error that says "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped". It disappears real quick.
2. I think I may not have all options available in my lock screen settings. After reading up online on what you can do, many people are able to add things like weather, news, etc in their lock screen. All I see when I go into the settings is Screen security, Battery status, Slider shortcuts, and Button actions.
I'd appreciate anyone's help.
Google now works fine for me. On the lock screen swipe down on your clock widget and you can swipe left and right to add more pages and widgets

About the widgets, you can only add the widgets that are designed for the lockscreen. You need to mod the guts of the ROM to allow regular widgets to be placed on the lock screen.

I couldn't uninstall Google search but I updated ur and it started working. I don't know why I didn't even think of that. Thanks a lot.
As for the widget...so which one did bfranklin a few posts back use? When searching for widgets I wasn't able to find out whether they can be used for lock screens or not so I'd like to try one that works.
I noticed just 1 more issue. I set led notifications for my texts. The problem is that when I get texts, the led works but as soon as my display goes out the led stops flashing.
If anybody has a noob guide for modded roms please let me know Lol. I came from an old blackberry to an android so imagine.
