Time/Date on EVERY screen? Possible?

Hey guys,
I'd like to have date & time on EVERY screen (not just home).
(I've just installed Josh's Manilla 2D ROM, so I'm using WM6.1)
I know how to add it using registry edits (or tweaker apps), but this has 2 problems:
1) I want date format to be "d/M", but if I set that in regional settings, TouchFlo 2D follows that format too. (Which I don't want)
2) It's only displayed when I'm on the Today page.
The date/time function in pBar 1.5 (which I'm also using) DOES display on all screens (not just Today), but...
this causes another problem; pBar's date&time are ON TOP OF my speaker icon. Is there a way to insert some space to fix this?
I promise I used the site search. Infact, I've just spent the last 40 minutes looking for the solution myself.

im using crc's rom v12.9 at the moment and am able to get the time on all of the programs that have a bar at the top. whether this can be done on the rom you are using i dont know. i made it display in the title bar of programs on the clock menu in the settings where you can tick to say show it in all title bars.
i dont whether this is what your looking for.
hope you find a way to do it

you can get it by editing the registry

Thanks for your reply, but this doesn't force it to display on every screen.

I just tried it, and with both settings it does show on every screen. But, it cuts off the 9 in the year, so today is 5/18/0.

Hey Boog, thanks for trying it, mate.
Yes, the date is cutoff for me too, but it also doesn't show on every screen.

Settings -> clocks and alarms -> more -> check the box to show it in every screens
personally i have mine set up to show the battery on the today screen and the clock on every other screen using the below settings:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell]
"TBOpt"=dword:00000001 (when the clock is shown it shows only time)
"ShowTitleBarClock"=dword:00000000 (Battery is shown on today screen)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar]
"ConsistentClockOrBattery"=dword:00000000 (option for today screen is not consistent across all programs)
"LimitedClock"=dword:00000000 (shows clock on all programs)

Changing clock to different time zone

How do i do this?
Im on vacation in vancouver, 4 hours difference from my home location. I cant find any way short of changing the default home time through settings. On winmo sence ui, i was able to click the clock icon and simply choose a new location, i cant do that on the desire.
Thanks

Anyone?

Have you tried changing the 'Set Time Zone' setting in Menu > Settings > Date & time? Uncheck Automatic and manually set the time zone.
Also check out the 'TimeZone' app from the Marketplace.

Thanks Mas, i was trying to avoid doing it those ways because i thought there may have been a very simple way to switch between 2 time zones (home and visiting). It can be done in wimo sense ui but ive just found out that this is a feature of wimo and sense is just overlayed. I'll just change the time zone through settings. Thanks

Yah, WM has this feature and seems somewhat overlooked with Sense UI on Android. Maybe there is some type of app that will allow you to achieve the same thing with a different clock widget?
I will report back here if i can find something similar.

How do I remove the sidebar from the forum?

Is there a way to remove the sidebar on the forums, the bar on the right with portal posts ? It takes up almost a third of my screen, and causes very weird formatting issues. For example many times the forum page is rendered underneath the side bar and text and everything is hidden underneath. I have no use for that bar and would rather get rid of it. I've searched in settings and don't see an option to disable it.

Hello, @spinedoc,
The XDA 2015 themes do not have an option to hide their side panels by default. However, you do have two options:
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and find the Style Chooser. Click on it, and then choose "XDA 2013 Beta - 1024". Boom - no more side panel.
If you really like the XDA 2015 themes but just don't want the side panel, you can use this userscript by @anazhd to do just that. No more side panel!
Hope this helps, and regards,

Thank you for the suggestions. Unfortunately I use IE11 so the scripts won't help. I'll try reverting back to older versions of the forum, but it's a shame as I really like the 2015 version. Can you please pass along the feedback? I think the side bar is simply awful, it takes up almost a 3rd of my screen and most of the time the forum gets rendered behind the side bar, making the forum kind of useless. Why force feed the portal posts down our throats?
Anyhow thank you for the help!!!
Edit: 2013 works, but no dark theme, sigh...

@spinedoc,
Actually, so many hundreds of users have expressed the same feelings as you over in this thread that I'm sure almost every moderator and admin on XDA knows that most of us don't like the sidebar!
