I've been having some issues with Serendipity---mostly loving it, but getting some really weird side effects with googlevoice, among other things.
Anyway, the reason I've stuck with Serendipity so far is that the clock app is AMAZING. I fabricated a sexy little wooden dock for my phone, and every night I plug in, turn that app on, tilt landscape and let it be my alarm clock.
I'm sure it's possible to extract that app, but it seems like it's sorta integral to the ROM--if that's possible. I'd like to do something crazy like try firefly + that clock app...
So the short version:
Can that clock app be downloaded somewhere else?

Should be. It's AOSP clock.
Thanks for the fast reply. I can find AOSP Clock mentioned all over the place, but no actual place to get the app. Suggestions, anyone?
Go grab it off the serendipity kitchen as an add-on. I like the alarm clock too, which seems to take precedence, so I flashed both at the same time in a cwm update. Now I have the "dock clock" that we both like, and the countdown timer/stopwatch/alarm clock that I use extensively too. Both are called "Clock" in the app drawer, with only a subtle icon difference.
The clock in the Serendipity kitchen is not the AOSP one it's the Samsung clock.
You might be able to download the AOSP here (didn't try it myself since I'm using the Samsung one)

Guys, I'm sorry I'm dense. The clock in serendipity that goes nicely to landscape and then dims to green while plugged in...that's....AOSP or Samsung?
<<Edit>> Ok, so maybe I'm super dumb here. I just bothered to look inside the serendipity rom zip and there's "DeskClockGoogle.apk" sitting right there. I'm assuming that's what I need, gonna flash and find out.
And Edit 2:
Yes, that worked. You can't install it---I copied it to SD card using SwiFTP and then used root explorer to move it to /system/apps/ and that auto installed it. Horray.

UPDATED for the latest cog 2.3b3-its the last attachment(marked as 23b3) make sure you download the version that you are running or it will cause problems. Changed the circle batt in this version to the normal smooth green circle instead of the one shown. i think it matches a little better
Updated to work with Cog-2.3B-make sure you download the right one. The second attachment with 23b2 at the end is (obviously) for Cognition 2.3B2
The first attachment with no version at the end of the file name is for those who havent upgraded and are still on the older cog B9.
Im using a custom boot animation that matches this theme pretty well. It is the first one in this thread-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696193
Just got done making this theme for the captivate. This is a pretty full theme, also includes evo black bar, circle batt, and a nice notification pull down.
Its compatible with any cognition with the extended power options but the most recent 9.1.3 was the framework that was modified.
This took forever to finally finish.
Just put this on your internal SD and flash with clockwork. Will not wipe anything.
*Just fixed the icons in the power menu(airplane & silent)*
credit to DG for the rom this goes to
credit to fightspit for the circle battery
credit goes to faster3200 for a lot of the original images.
Looks nice! I'd love to try it out but I'm firmly of the belief that if it ain't broke don't fix it. I won't be messing with my phone again til something serious happens.
looks good. gonna backup and test it out
Love this man, get it working for DocRambone's v7 JPO rom too if it's possible
I like the looks of this better then any other theme so far.
Nicely done just did it to try it out worked perfectly

However, the icons on my lower bar didn't change. How do I get them to look like yours? e.g. mail, browser, apps...

did you try rebooting or anything. its really just modifying the images in framework file, all the other files(even the xml's) in the framework folder are exactly the same.
the only reason i say that is because i have 2 captivates, and every once in a while its like there stuck. sometimes its when going from wifi to 3g and sometimes its just
random and cycling airplane mode will fix it if not then a reboot does.
hey guys this is my very first time posting on this forum i have a captivate rooted and running cog 9.1.3 and just tried your theme and everything started to force close on me any idea what might have went wrong, thanks

never mind reinstalled and all is well good work.
Love the theme, one little problem, I can't see the clock, it's the same black as the status bar? Any thoughts? Should I just try reflashing?

Flashed a different theme then came back to this one, everything works great now.
works with the newest v2.3b cognition. no problems so far.
On reboot after install, phone seems to be stuck on the cognition splash screen, vibrating like something is force closing every 5 seconds or so. Any ideas? I am on cog 2.3b.
Hi all. I'm looking for someone that might have found a way to remove the clock from the status bar. I've found different ROMs and update packages meant for other phones that are supposed to remove it, but I would rather try to find a tried and true method for the captivate. If one exists anyway, the last time I searched for this I read it wasn't possible with our phones.
So has anyone been able to accomplish this on their captivate?
Oh, I'm also running perception build 7.
Just gonna bump once
I tried to replace the services.jar file with one that was meant to remove the clock, but that rendered the phone unbootable :/ Which is what I assumed would happen.
Any ideas?
Looking for the same thing. I run beautiful widgets and have no need for clock in the notification bar.
Running Assonance 3.1
Likewise! I also run Beautiful Widgets and don't really see the need for this clock ....
I use zeam as my launcher and hide the status bar in prefs. To make notifications easily accessible, I set then to swipe down gesture.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to know if you guys would mind sharing your settings on ADW? I just got my Gtab a few days ago and I'm running Calkulin's G-Tab v1.1, love the rom. Thanks ahead of time
Settings? Like visual preferences or functional stuff?

Both I would say...
Well I'm a fan of the minimal home screen. I only have one, and it has a few icons, a search bar, and the GV widget. So, I chose to go with only one icon on the dock bar and that is just for the app drawer. I switch back and forth between screen transition effects, but right now I'm using effect number 6: rolling slide. My app tray is semi-transparent and I have my desktop bounce set to 49. Fancy backgrounds are enabled and I've chosen a semi-transparent gray. Oh, and before I changed all of that stuff, I installed the ADW Honeycomb theme and I use theme icons.
Now that I think about it, there is a lot to customize with ADW. I have a few more changes but I can't think of them off the top o' my noggin.

I have a similar settings but I use 3 icon dock and I have it set to random screen effects. What do you have your Desktop Columns/Desktop Rows size set to?
Desktop layout is eight columns, seven rows. And I turned off the horrible indicators and the trash can. But in my drawer I have six by six in landscape and four by ten in portrait. What about you?

I had mines on default which I didn't like at all, so I'm trying your setting... Thanks
You're welcome. ADW EX is great and super versatile. Happy customizing!
I have my settings set based on performance. Not many animations going on and things like swipe speed are set very low. I'm on my phone right now but maybe I can upload my personal setting (not homescreen layout though --that wont do u much good) . I definitely have spent a lot of time customizing adw ex.
Hopefully ill remember to upload the settings XML tomorrow, I guess it can't hurt for u to try that way.

That would be great, thanks either way...
These settings are a bit outdated from what I'm running right now. But, my GTab just went haywire on me (forcecloses everywhere, can't run a thing -- good excuse to switch to the Vegan 7 experimental, though).
ONE IMPORTANT NOTE: You will need to change the extension to XML - I cannot upload XML files. It should read "adw_ex_settings.xml"
Just drop this in the root of your GTab and "Restore settings" in ADW. I'd suggest copying your current settings to another folder in case you don't like mine.
Thank a lot man, side question... Do any of you guys had a issue with no audio on Calkulin's G-Tab v1.1 using Clemsyn's latest kernel? I ask on the rom thread but haven't gotten a response.
I've had an audio problem with. VEGAN 5 but haven't tried another rom recently enough to tell if its the rom or my hardware.
my audio cuts out a couple of minutes into YouTube videos, or any other media for that matter. Do u get no sound at all or does yours cut out like mine?
I just flashed vegan 7 so ill be able to tell if its something to do with my model if my sound problem persists

It would work than just cut out and I have no way of getting it back besides re-flashing the ROM again, I have even tired different kernels and no luck.
Thats a lot worse than I have it. I'm able to just reboot and I can get my sound back, albeit only for a little while. Ill let you know how vegan 7 treats my speakers.

I plug in a headphone worked but I have to keep doing it as my sound keeps going out :-(, sucks but will have to do for now..
I choose other wallpaper but it seems wallpaper being zoom in and upper notification block won't be covered by wallpaper. anybody knows how to adjust wallpaper fit the screen?
I've searched high and low, but can't seem to find an answer to this question.
I'd like to take the stock time/date from the lockscreen on my Thunderbolt and place it onto my homescreen.
I'm running Das BAMF Remix 1.7 which has the "Verizon Wireless" nuked from the lockscreen. I think this time/date is so simple and it'd look perfect on my homescreen, but I have no idea how to put it there.
Try simple clock widget from market. Not exactly what your looking for I know, but fairly similar.
Sent from my Motorola 8500
I don't mean to sound ungrateful. I do appreciate the quick response.
I've tried both simple clock and digital clock, and while both are pretty damn close, they're not quite right. I'm too particular I suppose.
I'm hoping someone knows how I can extract the time/date from the lockscreen (perhaps as an apk?) and then I can just flash it like any other mod.
Can you post a screenshot? I looked through the Roms thread for pictures, im just being curious (nosy)
Make Your Clock Widget or .. Make Your Clock Widget (Pro)
mClock or Minimalistic Text
Give those a try. - Also, I think "OMC" One more Clock has what you're looking for as a default skin.
i suppose i was just being lazy. after a bit of patience, i was able to use minimalistic text to mimic the stock lockscreen date/time perfectly. the only extremely minor glitch i can't quite fix now is the positioning. when i unlock my phone if you look carefully you can see the time/date jump just a few pixels. i don't think this is something i can fix though, as it probably has something to do with the different ways in which widgetlocker and launcher pro plus draw their grids between the lockscreen and the homescreen.
Hi,
for some reason my stock Sammy clock does not look right... Ever since loading ICS mine has a black background, the font looks different (fatter) and the day/month/date is displayed at the bottom right instead of the bottom left.
Can anyone post their std clock apk?
Also, the original picture frame widget in HC was much nicer. It used tobe rectangular with a "play" button in the bottom right. Now it is either square or displays multiple images and has a "settings" type gear cog in the bottom right. Is this an irreversible change with ICS or would the old one still work and can anyone post that too?
Cheers.
Arghhhhh!!!! Now I have completely lost the widget! I have it in system/app/ but it doesn't appear in the list of widgets when I try to add it to a screen.
I don't think it it is the correct apk.
Could someone with the official ICS upload theirs?
Here's the stock clock widget that i have. http://db.tt/FAV0kukY

Cheers! At least I have the clock back now, although it still doesn't look the same as previously...
Normal
Mine
Anyone got any ideas?
I'm also having this problem... the honeycomb clock looks nice, while the ICS one is horrendous. It shows up looking correctly in the widget picker, but its appearance gets ugly as soon as its on the home screen, without any options to tweak it.
Can anyone post a fixed version of this widget? I'd be willing to root my device just to get it back.
Clock Widget
Same problem here,the name of the day does not show there is only number instead.
I tried to swap the clock widget but it wont allow me to do so and I cant delete it either.
Iam new to this android stuff, does the tab need to be rooted and what program is best
to change sytem files ?

I know this is dragging somthing back form the dark ages but does anyone who has(d) this issue know of a way of resolvinf this?
My screen just doesn't look the same anymore at... I used to be able to line up the clock and the weather app (stock) exactly under each other. Not possible anymore, there's a gap between the two.
Or is it just the way ICS is (if you use TW Launcher)?
