HTC Hero original animation?

Hello Everyone,
How come the developers are making roms with the animation like the flipping clock widget and all that. I want a rom with all the original cool animation. Can someone get me one? Please let me know.
Thank You

the roms without the flipping clocks "flipping" are roms based off the new hero update. the new update increases speed.
one tweak to get more speed was to turn off the flip in the flip clock..
the next best hero rom that still flips is jacs 1.6r2a

Hello All,
I noticed this post and joined. I too would really like the clock/weather widget from the original ROM.
I understand it was taken out to reduce lag, but I don't have many apps or widgets running, and if I could have the original animation it would be really great. I upgraded to the latest ROM and was really disappointed that the clock no longer "flipped". It's that kind of feature that makes the HTC Hero aesthetically better than an iPhone.
Is there a way to have the old widget on the new ROM?
Many thanks if anyone has any ideas!

Sexy Widgets for the Hero

So after a couple of months using the Hero I wanted to share the Widgets I still use. My sense UI now has allot of app icons but I still find most of these Widget useful. Please add any suggestions and I will post them up on page. Lets create a resource to make the iphone peeps jealous
3RD PARTY WIDGETS:
BBC News (8/10) two widgets on my home page one for most popular and another for tech or sport
News Buzz (7/10) Still good but have stopped using it
Weather Bug (small) (5/10) Removed it
S2 CalenderWidget (9/10) for me by far the best calendar widget (two types to choose from)
Andriod and Me (small)(3/10) If nothing else to do a nice for android information
Twidriod Pro (8/10) simple but works well
Google scoreboard (9/10) I like this allot good for all sports updates
Facebook (don’t have an account I‘m a twitter man)
HTC WIDGETS:
HTC calendar (small) (8/10) Removed
HTC Settings GPS/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Mobile (8/10) Good functions I now only have gps as ModaCo's roms have a wifi off app already installed
HTC Weather/Clock (9/10) Still nice looking but have gone for 2X2 icon without clock
HTC bookmarks (8/10) still use them
HTC footprints (Large) (8/10) Was fun at first but now removed
HTC Album (4/10) Removed
HTC Picture frame( 4/10) still use it
Contacts (8/10) nice but don’t use

Other than the stock HTC widgets - small music player, messaging and the ones you listed, I also use Google's Scoreboard. If you're into sports, its pretty good.
Oh and I have the Facebook widget too.
Someone should write one for xda-devs, it could show you PMs and when people reply to your threads/posts.... Or maybe I'm just beginning to rely on the Hero just a little too much these days.

I agree Floridak xda dev should be more mobile friendly. It would be nice to get updates via a widget. It would also be nice yo have a mobile edition web page that you can post on.

+1
totaly agree with the XDA-widget!

yep xda mobile support would be great

what's different than getting to mob portal from web portal home page? (other than saving a click)

lets get back on topic. Any new Widgets out there?

try feedr. It's $0.99 but you can create an rss feed of xda forums and then place as many widgets on your desktops as you like..I like it a lot.

i use the normal xda website all the time from my hero, i find it great and if you zoom in the auto format setting kicks in to save you the hassle

Did anyone hear of widget that would show/hide my number when calling with one press on a home screen ? That would save a lot of effort

I found interesting the Volume Widget Pro.
It's pretty nice and really useful to change music and alarm volume level from the home screen. And it has lot's of options to configure the colors of the widget.

What I'm using.
Twidgit, nice little widget shows the latest tweet.
BBC news, small widget that shows the latest headline.
Did have 'android and me' but it wasn't much of interest on it.
Ditto engaget.

I posted about this issue a while back when i first got my Hero. I was told it was not possible then. I`m hoping someone can remedy this issue as i hate having to scroll through 30-40 apps to find what i`m looking for. Even WM 6.1 has this facility!

it is included in mcr2.9 as it is part of htc sense. probably won't work in other roms.

Oh, I thought, that is the Widget of the first HTC ROM with flipping times.
Sorry.

I still cant figure out how to get it to work on my phone.. I just said forget it

It won't work without Rosie installed (and running). It's an HTC widget, not a regular Android widget... it only hooks into SenseUI.
Also, if your question is why doesn't it actually flip, that's a limitation of the US version I know for sure... the animation was taken out by HTC because of the drain on system resources. The animation may or may not be functioning in the widget released in Europe.

I did pull this from the original rom so it should flip but when i posted it i thought id like to give it a try and i couldnt get it work either so I gues htc must have changed something else in the ROM that it relies on maybe... Im far from being an expert though so don't know if it should be able to work or not
Sorry

Not working on my Samsung Epic 4G. Is there a similar widget that works WITH the flip clock animation intact for non-HTC phones?

Lacks the animation, but it's the closest you will get. Remember that it's removed due to a C&D, so you can't get it or post it on xda.

I have my own black version of the HTC flipclock that i rebuilt/themed and the animation flips/works perfectly, i've uploaded it for you (install through recovery as update.zip and make sure it does not go on sdcard, has to be on phone storage)!
It would be great if a Dev could make this work with non-sense roms
Enjoy.

wont install on my optimus one

the thing is the flip clock needs the sense framework.....if you want something similar to it...download applanet and install fancy widgets pro and theme the home widget i paid for the app but if u need it for testing i suggest this. the clock its identical to the sense ui analog flip clock

i wanna a htc flip clock for cm7

OUPS I didn't see the 2nd page....

htc sense is not compatible for gingerbread , if it was someone would have cooked it in a rom by now, and no you won't find an apk for it. your best bet is to use something like launcher pro.

[Q] Tasks, Notes widgets missing?

As I am comming from an One X, I really miss the function of tasks and notes widgets. Is it only me or have those widgets really been removed?

There are a lot of widgets missing unfortunately...I was so looking forward to them HTC widgets...I hope most will come with an update.

Missing those great widgets

I am fan of HTC mainly for their rich interface and beautiful widgets... I also switched from onex to ONE... I am very disappointed to see that notes, tasks and some other beautiful widgets are missing.
When I contacted HTC customer care, they are saying that widgets are available on ONE also. I dont understand.. any one knows more detail about this... Please tell me if there is any way to get those widgets on HTC ONe...
Thanks in advance
