I have searched but can't find answer.
Im running DC3.5 which is great but I can't find how to set an alarm. Where is the widget that included alarm and world time? I keep the phone on my nightstand in landscape mode but can no longer do that since the clock app is missing. And yes, ive tried the digital clock app/widget from the market and I do not like it.
Thanks.

Should be the HTC Clock widget aka the flip clock with weather. If its missing you might need to reflash DC. I've flashed DC several times and it was always there.

Im running beautiful widgets and have always been able to assign the htc clock/alarm widget to open when tapping on the clock. I also no longer have the app "clock" in my app list.

I stumbled upon it yesterday. It's in the menu as "Desktop Clock".
You most likely have them banned in DConfig. That allows you to see the vanilla lockscreen instead of the HTC default lockscreen.
What is the best LAUNCHER in ur comparison..and the best feature that makes it awesome...(eg. mine is goLauncherex coz it have swipe in the screen to do additional options like swipe down for notification or open helicopter view of all home screens).....REPLY PLZ
I use adw ex because its fast. But when Zeam has widget scrolling back i will use that mainly cause, adw ex is fast but it uses more memory and sacrifices graphics. You can check this by using a dark/black coloured widget and then scrolling, you will see it distort.
I use ADW Launcher Ex, it has the same swipe features and many themes available

+1 for ADW Launcher Ex, it just seems to move smoother and more fluidly than others ive tried.
Tried several all they all have advantages, still, surprisingly, I am now quite used to TouchWiz on the Galaxy S2 2.3.3 and while it is not perfect, decided to stop bothering with other launchers for now. It does a fair, fast/fluid job and I complement it with a couple of widget-thingies like Elixir and a couple of apps like Tasker and ZDTools.
The good part is that it appears to be very stable. I'll probably keep using it until something amazing shows up.
LauncherPro, tried Zeam and Go Ex, both rather slowly working. But I like the feature on GoEx launcher to open the recent apps out of the appdrawer...
I like Go Launcher's ability to uninstall an app just by long-pressing on the app icon in the drawer of home screen, and that you could add up to 30 screens--something few launchers can do.
ALso the many themes and icons that it has for free download. Font packs though, are not its strength. You'd have to look elsewhere for fonts.

30 screens -> will be BAD SLOW! i have 3 screens and it is really enough...
launcher pro: tap long on an icon, drag it over the trash can and wait -> so you can uninstall it
I love adw launcher being able to hide app labels, looks much cleaner.
Quite like transparent app drawer too!

Hey I'm desperatly trying to find an app which will display my next event on my agenda directly on the lockscreen.
anyone knows an app or apk I could use with the nexus, the usual apps I used are not compatible.
Widget Locker: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker&hl=en with Android Agenda Widget: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roflharrison.agenda&hl=en ought to work, I think.
+1 for Widgetlocker. I've been using this app for over a year and have loved it the whole time, except when they introduced a bug that nuked the battery of my Bionic and Photon in 4 (FOUR!) hours.
I use it to put the Weather.com small widget on my lockscreen. This was my first paid app and it is well worth it!
Buzz launcher is working really well, no widget support but I have searchbar, wallpaper, and notifications are coming through fine(I don't have a number icon but they show on lock screen and in drop down) also I just managed to get stock jb camera and gallery working. I've spent a few hours trying every launcher I could get and the best two were go launcher and Buzz launcher, although google now launcher is available and great except for the wallpaper support.
At this point I have a mostly stock(not rooted sadly) up to date 3.6.8 unlocked fire phone. I've added Google play store, installed Buzz launcher and glovebox, and pushed stock jellybean camera and gallery via .apk file. I'm also using chomp sms, gmail, stock dialer, chrome browser and apus booster.
Any suggestions or ideas? I'm loving the hardware but we seem to have a small following and very few developers behind us which means we're on our own.
launchers I have tried and had issues with-
1. Yahoo Aviate, crashes on launch.
2)ADW- worked well bot no widgets or wallpaper.
3)Nova-no wallpaper or widgets but stable.(beta has same issues)
4)Holo Launcher(regular and HD)- no widgets or wallpaper
5)DU Launcher- no wallpaper or widget
6)Themer- wallpaper support but random crashing after sleep
7)Smart Launcher 2-no wallpaper or widget
8.)Action Launcher 3- no wallpaper or widget
9)Everything Me Launcher- no wallpaper or widget, crashing
10) 2Tap Launcher- crashes quickly no wallpaper
11)CM Launcher- no wallpaper, crashing rarely but mentionable
Working launchers
1) Buzz Launcher fully functional except for widgets, my daily driver for now seems to be the most stable so far
2)Google Now- works very well but no wallpaper support but very stable
3)Go launcher- wallpaper works(i couldnt change it from the stock wallpaper but it was better than a black screen, ran well no crashes for two days)
* as of the update on 4/4/15 go launcher no longer has wallpaper at all
4)Lightning Launcher- works perfectly (only last because it is the only paid app I listed)
Useful Apps/Options
Stock JB Camera and Gallery(Will post .apk asap)
Google Play and GApps
Glovebox (sidebar/dock)
Chomp SMS(works well but must be kept running or will not notify)
*I've switched to hangouts for sms and it's working really well(hangouts dialer was less than perfect, but did function)
Also using Google play music and still searching for new options daily while waiting on fire os4
Workarounds
Configured gestures via buzz to launch google now from searchbar, doubletap screen for JB Camera, tied Chrome to as many apps as possible to mimic default browser.

Homee launcher works, widgets, wallpaper, etc. But most themes are a bit feminine for my tastes. Been using it for a week or two pretty neat overall.
A new launcher that supports some widgets and wallpapers
Dodol Launcher from the play store
To get wallpaper to show you must go into advanced settings and enable exclusive wallpaper. As far as widgets go it's pretty limited and seems to only support it's own built in one's

Launcher Lab
Launcher Lab works perfectly except for no widget support, you can however use its built in widgets. its fully customizable so getting a native look isn't hard.

FTL Launcher from PlayStore is running also well with all widgets
Lock Screen
Or update via Launcher Settings[/QUOTE]
Hydroman, this works perfect. Being a former Mi phone user, this is like going native. Only issue is lock screen not working. Still default fire lock screen takes effect. Any suggestions?

I am getting my notifications from Hangouts, Facebook,XDA App, and all my mail accounts. But I've been using NotifierPro Free since before 4.6.1 update. I'll uninstall it and let you know some time tonight or tomorrow morning if I'm still getting them.
On non rooted? My fav Holo Launcher Plus.. Notifications bubbles on Icons Are Working there.
On rooted with notification bubbles:
Nova with Missed It!
Google Now Launcher with Xposed Gel Settings and Missed It!

Ok i was still getting notifications after I uninstalled NotifierPro Free. I did notice on occasion that my phone would get a bunch of notifications all at once. I reinstalled Notifier i actually like how it works. FYI I am 4.6.1 rooted running the Google now Launcher.
So weird..i just cant handle not seeing the notification little numbers..lol..like if u dont hear the phone you wouldnt know u have a whatsapp as the little number isnt there..
Ive never rooted, shudnt matter shud it
My Setup
HoloLauncher 2.1.1, Weatherbug, Battery Widget, ACalendar+, Power Toggles.
I don't have my previous ROM name at hand, sadly, But I recently flashed SR Lollipop v6.
I use Nova Launcher and thought it had it's own Weather widget, so when I went to try and place a weather widget with a clock on it, I couldn't find one. Any app I download to use as a replacement, I can't get my LG Clock app to open when I tap the time. Is this an System App issue or a user issue?
In other words, before I flashed a new rom, when I tapped on the clock in my weather app, it opened my alarms. If I tapped the weather, it opened a weather app. HOWEVER, It was NOT the default weather app that comes with LG. It was a centered clock with weather underneath, similar to yahoo weather.
How do I fix this?
Please delete this thread, or close it. I have figured out my issue. It was an App called Chronus.
