Find a 2x2 clock that works on the build you want ... then grab the 3 appwidget images from the xtheme/xinvert clock ... now use 7z to open archive of the 2x2 AlarmClock.apk .. navigate to res/drawable .. now paste those 3 images in here .. now navigate back to the root of the apk and delete the META-INF folder .. then resign the apk and push back to phone
^^^ couldn't have put it better myself, lol. Follow those steps and your good-to-go.
I saw your post in the Enoch thread and was going to post a reply there, but xidominicanoix beat me to it here. xidominicanoix is VERY knowledgeable with the clocks. I've seen & used his work
So this thread will be great...I will tell you how to edit the the Sense 2.1 (2.5 coming soon!) clock files and we will make great clocks...I really want to do this because the process is fairly easy and I am quite sure you can do it better than me....if we get alot of users to contribute...we will all benefit!
Here is how you do it
Download and Extract Raw_Sense_2.1_Clock_Files.zip. In that file you will find 2 folders manila files & png files. The manila fies folder includes the raw manila files unedited for your use. The png files folder has the exact same files already converted into .png format.
Using the program of your choice edit/skin/theme those .png files!!! This is the fun part so.....be creative.
Save those files in .png format and make sure to save them all in the same folder.
Now we need to turn your awesome new clock (.png) files back into manila files. For this I use a tool called CFC GUI created by xda-member Chainfire. Big props to Chainfire for this tool! Below is a quick guide to accomplish this using CFC GUI...
Download and extract cfc-gui-only-0.60.35.zip
Run cfc_gui.exe (the program you just extracted)
When prompted select the folder you saved your .png files to.
From the CFC GUI menu select...Tools--->Import from PNGs
When prompted select a folder to save your manila files.
Zip up that folder and share it...includes pictures so I can update the 2nd post with all the files that have been created.
***Note you will probably need to uncheck "hide protected operating system files" from "folder options" on Vista (it will be similar on 7 or XP) to even be able to see manila files.
To the Contributers (aka Da' Clock Makers)
Let me be the first to thank you for your efforts...if you make a clock and post it in the thread I will put it here...and give you credit for contributing!!! My plan is to convert every clock into a cab file when time permits...

Copy the manila files to your phones \windows directory

Better transparency

Last nights test wasn't very transparent. Just B/W. Some might like that so I posted new one.
I don't know how to add pics to this message hope picasa link works

analog clock?
is it possible that we have analog clock for sense 2.1?
theboostman ever made analog clock for manila 2.1 though...
i turned tf3d 2.1 off, but still can't copy the files into windows directory.
access denied...
in the properties window, the files in /windows/ are marked read only, but the checkbox is greyed out, so i can't turn them back to writable.
i really want that transparent inverted clock.

Hi,
I have now Zeus 6 flashed and running fine.
1. I would have back the old LG Wallpaper (not animated).
2. I miss the old GPS icon in the notification bar too.
What do I have to download from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21587977&postcount=2
I tried the animated wallpaper pack but that is not what I searched.
Thank you.
for lg old wallpaper
- LG Home pack (original LG Launcher) (flash from CWM): From V20N version, it will work at both versions.
-- Install: f046d7f72d73a56a17a2e73a763e1541 - mirror

I tried this pack, but now the complete homescreen is as before :-(
I would like to see new (non animated) wallpapers with the Zeus homescreen.
Yes, I found out how to switch between the two homescreens.
u can simply extract the wallpaper from the lg home.apk( res> drawable hdpi) and save its to ur sd card....and then came back to ur favourite launcher...
for the icone of gps u have to change the icon of gps in framework-res.apk and systemui.apk

Thank you.
But I assume I have to "sign" framework-res.apk and systemui.apk after the change?

Hi,
I downloaded all, found a suitable one_click_signer, found the framework-res.apk but not the systemui.apk on my smartphone with Zeus6.
The old stock rom from LG had this file.
Thank you for your help.
Find it in /system/app.
there is systemui.apk

It is really there
I searched with RootExplorer several times all directories with no success, the other file framework-res.apk was found at once.
Thanks.

I think it's because you really have to write SystemUI.apk and not just systemui.apk... Dont know why, but sometimes that's already the reason
It's Linux

Hi,
I need another help with making flashable zips.
I read here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954281
and here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732957
and at some other places without really understand this.
I now have two changed .apk files and don´t know how to proceed.
You need to make folders first.
Call one "system" inside make a folder called "app" and one called "framework"
Insert SystemUI into the app folder and the framework-res into framework.
Then you need to make an updater-script, or you copy it from another flashable .zip, which also contains systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk.
Then make another folder called META, insides one called "com" inside "google" and "android" inside it. Insert the updater-script and update-binary into it, zip those two folders together in one .zip, sign it, and flash it
I De-compile the app and Extract the wallpapers.
Check Screenshot and download Zip for all wallpaper
P.s I have not resize wallpaper, please do it as per you use.
You could've open apk with winzip and extract them... ;d nice walls tho
