[Q] Tileworldclock in 7.8 - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Before updating to 7.8 I used to use tile world clock for it's double wide tile, but that doesn't seem to work in 7.8. Does anyone know of any clock which mimics the renders of HTC's double tile clock or restores functionality to the homebrew app?

I'm using the analog clock on tilewoldclock and it seems to be working fine?

I meant the double wide tile. I thought the analog one was only one tile?

HTC Weather Widget - set update frequency to hourly?

Hello,
I am enjoying the Hero builds but I have a "request" at anybody who can help me/us:
I would like to use the HTC weather widget but it does not seem to update for about 4 hours or more.
It would be great when it would update hourly so I would not have to start the weather app which always delays the loading of the home screen so I have a lag about 10 or more second ...
Is it possible to change the update frequency somewhere in the app?
Do you know why there is always the com.htc.dcs.impl & com.htc.dcs.stock running when using the weather widget?
Would be really great if you could help me with this update thing, thank you.
Why dont you just update it manually? I think on the bottom of the weather widget if you click on the little bar it should update. I cant be 100% sure on this cause I'm on cyan 3.6.5. Please someone with hero correct me if im wrong.
neone notice tht the flip clock widget is only slow when weather is enabled..so when u install hero n u got no wifi its without weather so its fast....neone know how to make it flip clock w/o weather ?

Yes, you are right when you use the biggest widget which needs a full homescreen.
But when you use the two smaller widgets (I have it on to left at my main homescreen) there is no button for update - so the only possibility is to change the config somewhere I think?
Has really no one any idea?

I believe the only to have the flip clock with out weather is to not have the weather set up for your location. Correct me if I am wrong. I have seen the clock without weather after using the hero roms and was puzzled because I had no weather. I set it up and it appeared. The opposite thing should work for you.

i think the only way to get the flip clock without weather is to not have your clock set up
let me elaborate
when u select the clock app you have cities set up right?
like i have atlanta on there
and then u also have the timzone clock and the extra clock i always have that shows up which is gay but w/e back on topic
when u select the flip clock from htc widget screen it asks u to select a city
if u select current city (not an actual city name) the weather wont show up on the clock
thats the only way i can get the clock without weather
hope it helps :-D
JUST install the weather widget from the market it contains the clock from hero and the weather...works on the Cynaogen build...1.49 from market but works good...

I think when you press the current city it looks for your location

yes, but I know how the weather is at my current location - also it does not update automatically ...
if you want a flip clock without weather, try retro date (and clock) from market

Maybe it works like the flip clock/ weather widget. When I wanted to change the frequency (update interval) the only way I could find was to drag the widget to the trash bin and then re-launch it from the home screen (like most widgets) then it asks for location and update frequency like a fresh install.

hmm - the HTC Weather or flip clock widget does not ask for the frequency ... I think it must be in the file / apk - but where & how?
I'm looking for a flipclock without weather on it as well....
Solved the update frequency issue if you're still wondering about it.

5-in-1 settings widgets

I had a rom once, many moons ago, that had a 4x1 widget which combined wifi, bluetooth, gps, airplane mode and brightness toggle all in one. The widget was 4x1 in size and had 5 separate buttons within it. Does anyone know where i could find that widget or which rom includes it?
I don't know what specifically you're talking about but try an app called Dazzle which let's you customize a 1x1,2x1,3x1 or 4x1 widget with any of those controls as well as a few others
the power widget? its stock in 2.0 +

thats not exactly the power widget, the power widget has sync as opposed to airplane mode
Like previous guy said, just get SwitchPro Widget:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/alei.switchpro
You can choose from 4-7 widgets per widget.
Case closed.
great!
yeah, jep4444 was right.
i'll give dazzle and switch pro a try, thanks!

how to do weather on my desktop

How to stick the weather on my desktop
Download Weatherbug & pin it to homescreen you will then have a live tile.
I think about something similar to hd2
not the same icon to the weather
but the weather on top of menu

As yet Microsoft won't allow anything like that due to their strict UI guidelines. Live tiles are the best you're gonna get for now.

Install different lockscreens?

Hey Guys,
Looking for some new lockscreens. Would really like the froyo 2.2 lockscreen from the droid x or D2. I like the looks of those slider bars.
Does anyone know if this is available or ones like it?
I dont know if its possible to replace the actual system lockscreens ... I know that WidgetLocker has those Motorola Froyo Lockscreen Setups, but well, its a external solution, the internal Lockscreen will not be replaced at all ...
one is called Lockbot

Awesome this is exactly what I was looking for. It works great, thanks for the tip, loving my new lockscreen now.
batmania15: since the latest lockscreen gestures update (in CM 0.04-10.11.29) I'm not using the unlock bars at all. You should check it out...

I tried the lockscreen gestures but didnt like them. I had one set for S and one set for B and everytime I drew the B it launched the one for S.
The default sensitivity was set too low, you could simply fix it for you by setting it to 3 or higher.
In 0.04-10.11.29, the default is now 3.

i think widget locker is a perfect choice
i m using it since i got the phone
While Widget Locker is a nice feature to have I think the Milestone just can't handle it. 256mb and if you throw a few widgets on it or a few widgets in your Launcher Pro/ADw, your home screen will redraw 24/7. I noticed like a 2x redraw rate with WidgetLocker. It's nice, but our phones can't handle it.
Need 512mb ram damnit.
sorry to hi-jack, but aren't you the Batmania15 from the MOTO Milestone support forums?
Any word on official FroYo?
i have another sort of question about lockscreen.
is there a way to have a picture on lockscreen different to the background picture?
You can set an alternative wallpaper i widget locker for the lock screen

Nadlabak,
The gesture lockscreen is great! Thanks for this.
Is it possible to use your gestures lock instead of standard Android visible pattern functionality? I mean to secure lock screen via gesture only. I ask because if you turn it on, then you can use gesture OR standard swipe unlock (so it's not securing the phone).
Thanks in advance for any sugestions!
Yes, you can turn off standard unlock slider option in the cyanogen settings.

We have no Clock application. Where to get it?

Anyone know what we can do here? I don't have an Android 2.1 device to get the Clock application from but it would be really nice to have as an alarm clock, etc.
My other two android devices run Froyo, so I can't help with getting the Eclair clock app, but there are plenty of options if you search for "alarm clock" in the market. I tried a couple that look very similar to the stock android clock app (Better Alarm Clock and Alarm Clock PlusV2) and they did not display properly, as the bottom half or so of the button bar was cut off by the B&N modified status bar in both portrait and landscape, so the stock app may not work right even if you had it. Gentle Alarm, on the other hand, appears to work properly.
Can't beat beautiful Widgets. Cool stuff.
