Analogue clock in home screen? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I think I know the answer, but here goes.
Can I install an analogue clock to replace the digital one in the home screen?
Without flashing a rom, I mean.
I did this in my old Orbit 2 ..

You can just remove and re-add the clock widget. It'll let you switch between digital and analogue

Great, thanks!
I feel like a real noobie!

Open home - small analog clock skin

All,
First, I hope I'm posting in the correct forum here, if not please feel free to move where appropriate.
I'm running open home and have an issue with skins and the default analog clock widget. The problem is that once I switch to the open home big analog clock and switch back to the regular analog clock widget that it is no longer skinned with the currently enabled skin, it just has the default android skin and nothing I do will cause it to skin the regular clock widget with the currently enabled skin.
It seems that only after you install open home will it skin the regular analog clock widget but once you change it to big clock and back again it will never reskin it.
Any open home users know how to fix this?

I assume you have tried to reapply the skin? I haven't seen that happen. I test all my themes before I upload them on the market and I bounce between the 2 clocks I haven't had that happen. I have like 140+ themes that I've done it on.
Update: I just took screens of both clock on the screens at the same time

Disable the tiny weather animation beneath the clock

The small home screen weather, right beneath the clock, animates. When you open the home screen the weather animates for a short time.
I dont mean the animated background on the home screen which covers the whole screen. I really mean the tiny weather thingy.
I want that to stop. Anyone has any idea how to stop this? I've got the latest 2.5 23xxx Energy Cookie Rom

Well that small animation should only happen when you go back to the home tab or when the clock itself is reloading..... like after you flip the cookietab back down or something.
It doesnt slow down your phone at all and that animation takes a whole, what, 3 seconds? I would just use a rom that doesnt include that weather panel under the clock. The weather may look a bit funny just sort of popping back and forth between your my location weather forcasts as it changes.
I think that weather animation its pretty much standard even on 2.1 roms now.

Its annoying. The weather is fine, but the animation is bugging me ... but oke.
You can remove it but then you won't have any weather there at all. At least to my knowledge.

2.5 Manila Home Screen Explain Why?

Hi all,
I really hope someone answers this, unless no one has noticed it. in the 2.5 Manila, the little weather icon under the clock that when the clock flips each minute every weather icon is stationary except for the rain, each minute it animates, but all the other weather icons dont. And personally I think this causes some trouble and slow downs. Anyone know how to make it stop?
I installed the flip clock 1 hour behind disabler, and it does it on that one too. Its on a Stock EU rom 6.5.207.401.
Anyone? No one?
Actually I stand corrected, its the rain animae and the cloud animae that it happens with each minute.

analog clock on cm6

Hey guys just wanted to know if there are other versions of the analog clock widget for cm6? I click on it and see the time with the weather and wondering how i get it on as a widget. Thanks

lost my clock and weather!

I recently upgraded to the 20V firmware on my H11. Here is the problem. I was on 20R. I had a clock and weather widget on my homescreen that was there by default but now it is gone. Does anyone know how I can get the stock 20R clock/weather widget back? I tried long pressing my home screen and flipping through widgets in hopes of getting it back, but it looks like it has been removed. Does anyone know if I can extract from the old firmware? I tried the apps in the app store and they are just not the same. My old firmware had the clock and weather where if it were raining my home screen have rain drops. I loved it. The new widgets are just not the same and they look awful and non familiar to me.
Please help...........
