i know it's not appropriate to request such thing here, but i've been searching for something like this a while... a simple app showing the clock on the today screen without more crappy add-ons like HTC Home. Anyone... please?
Great idea
ill second this, wood be great to have it next to my bed as an alarm clock, a nice full screen simple digital clock
it wouldnt even need to worry about power usage because it would be on charge
i'm not referring to full screen. Just a Htc Home like clock but without tabs and fluffy useless content

Check out battery status. It is highly customizable. I am using pieces of the theme from the following link:

not analog but a big digital clock. I'm testing Battery Status right now and it looks awesome but i want to disable all the other functions. Thanks for the help offered
good luck finding this, i've searched high and low and there is no plug in with just a nice big clock. tried battery status yesterday but it also has a bunch of stuff that comes along.
give this a shot http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-dr-puttingham-samsung-time.html
my device is VGA and that plug-in is too small for me
you can use rltoday.. if u want just a digital or analog clock.. it doesnt come with all the battery status stuff..
you can create your own skin or you can go to their forum and search for the desired skin...

I'm of the same idea, I've made a simple skin that show a digital clock "identical" to the one of the HTC Home.
Sorry, but for now I can't post the code and a screenshot, you have to wait the next week...
Ah... I have a VGA screen, so my skin is perfect for you
i did the same thing with RLToday. I have the digital clock and the msg notifications, nothing else.
Anyone know if there is a font that looks like the Alien Round found in HTCHome Customizer?

The 3rd is Batterystatus.

The top bar consists of:

indibar 2.7.0 - for the RAM and Battery meters, as well as the cascading start menu.
The bottom bar consists of Saman's WM5NewMenu.
i think that about covers it.

i prefer this today screen than PointUI's
Here is my today
wanted it to be clean and nice.
Hey
Wondering if anyone out there is/would like to make a skin for S2U2 to make it match the Pointui interface.
At the moment i have Home running, then when a call comes through S2U2 pops up with slide to answer. Would be awesome to skin S2U2 to match the Pointui look, would look great, all matching and what not.
Also, anyone know of a PocketCM Pointui look-a-like skin? Again this would look great.
Thanks!
I'd like a PointUI skin to match S2U2.
PointUI is not skinnable as yet but here's hoping....
When you lock pointui it gives it's own unlocking slider screen
Well someone made a TSK to match the PointUI. All you would need to do is extract the JPG out of the TSK. I was gonna get around to it but haven't been back to the office yet. If anyone has some theme editing software they can get a jump start on it.
Attached is the PointUI today theme.

Yeah buts its real bad. s2u2 is much better and handles incoming calls etc. So untill the Pointui guys improve the locker, a s2u2 pointui theme would be great.
Here's the images I used in the TSK, they were extracted from PointUI:
S2U2 "Pointui wallpaper skin"
Copy these 2 wallpapers to S2U2/GFX.
Yeah we are heading in the right direction.
What about icons and such?
i'll see if i can knock together an S2U2 theme for you guys, but it won't really be top quality, since i need to get to sleep soon. just something to appease the people while someone else who has more time to focus on it can produce a better product.
There's a great tutorial for modifying S2U2 in this thread here.
I'll get to working on a PointUI theme for S2U2 as soon as I finish setting up my Telus branded HTC Touch (Vogue 100)(P3050) for the 5th time. (screwed up registry trying to make TouchPal the default SIP) (Used PIM Backup to overwrite the last good backup with a barebones PIM from the last HR)
here's a theme
Hey Azimuth
Thanks for the theme. Just a few notes as you mentioned its untested, iv tested it and..
- There seems to be a white bar next to the SMS icon
- The Clock font is real choppy
- The slide button has white areas in the top corners where i suppose this should be transparent
- Is it possible to have larger icons for SMS, Emails and Calls, like the Pointui ones.
critiques
will fix
Azimuth21
thanks for producing such a nice theme for s2u2. Everyone is good apart from the slide button, i think the corners should be smoother...lol...
anyways for sharing...
I just created the PointUI Slider, I hope you like it.
And here's how my S2U2 looks like.
PS: The icons dont work.
Here's is a coloured version.
Here's how my S2U2 screen looks like:
Firstly, we appreciate that you guys are impressed by Pointui Home, XDA has some hardcore PDA fans and we know you're a tough crowd. We also know what kind of stuff goes down here, hi to all the Chefs out there.
We know that Pointui Home is limited in areas and other software is needed, but come on guys, you have completely raped the logo. Its been designed so its square, it would fit in nicely. That looks like Xenu is about to land.
If you guys are serious then step up. Contact us and ask, let us know what kind of sh!t is going down here. Maybe we can at least meet you half way so the result is decent.
We'll try and get a setting in to have the lock look for an external app like we did with 1.01b and the Music icon, mail, etc.. in the next build.
As you can tell from our forum Joel and I are pretty busy and given we do this in our own time after work so we might not get back to you for a bit. Please have some patience.
Also, please if anyone in these forums works out how to get something to work and there are people in our forum with the same problem we'd appreciate you hook them up.
Thanks cstewart for the donation and Dorothy sends her regards
Cheers,
Shane...

This is a legitimate concern, it's your trademark and I would be peeved as well. However go easy on mushipkw, I'm sure his including your logo was out of admiration and not with the intent to desecrate it
You should include trademark usage guidelines on your website or completely forbid it.

Exactly. I didnt want to desecrate it, If u say I'll remove it.
I've started developing a theme for ThrottleLauncher, and I would like to know your opinion.
As a small explanation of the theme I could say it has 3 main rows + footer.
- In the first row you find a simple clock plus info on your next appointment in your agenda.
- On the second you get the contacts that you assign to the favorites category.
- The third row provides 7 shortcuts that you can personalize with your own apps + 1 for all of them.
- The footer brings up the following pages:
Contacts;
Weather;
Calendar;
Settings.
Not all of it finished so, one of this days I will post a cab to install it in your device.
Hope to ear from you...
Thats a very nice theme. I suggest you wait a bit before developing it all, because APBilbo said he would release v0.9.2 soon this week or the next. IMHO, I would say it's nice except the background doesn't really go well with the icons and some of the icons are pixelated. Besides that, it is a very good theme.
Kraize
The graphics? Yeah... Ok.

Humm, I wasn't aware that the new version was coming out, but I agree with you. I'll wait a bit.
About the graphics, I also agree with you and as you were the first (and only) so far to refer that, what do you suggest? The icons on the apps are the ones from the .exe plus a background that I found out in some other theme (sorry to the author, but don't remember who you are ). The photos on the contacts row are from the phone's outlook.
Would you like to manage the graphics? I feel much better with the code lines...
Okay. v0.9.2 just got released today. I see a black line below the start button. I think you should place the clock a little lower. The icons are nice, but they don't really match the feel of it. I suggest you either change the background or change the icons to something like the iPhone icons, unless you don't like the iPhone icons, I mean totally your choice.

1bbfdc9b_manila and 4e670504_manila would be the clock files. Copy them to your Windows directory and note they work best against a darker background.

The large icons are slightly blurry, and therefore not any larger than this. I think they're almost at their max currently, so much larger wouldn't have been possible anyway. You won't notice the blur in action, though, due to the beautiful sharp screen of the Diamond.
hi tha_rami
it's nice! what's wrong with the clock btw?
The transparency on the clock gives a bit of an odd effect when the numbers change. Sadly, I've found no way to change that animation and thus had no choice but to either leave it at that or make some lame background for the clock (an idea I detested), so this is the best possible given the possibilities available to me.
Let's conclude that I'm happy with how it turned out and searching for inspiration for another new, unique theme.
Thank you very much
hi
very beautiful! posoono not only have the files without all the theme?
I thought maybe someone might be interested in HTC Diamond theme for S2U2 so I made my own. It's not perfect and the clock is not mine, but I've made there a couple of changes - used original TouchFLO 3D icons, used original WM 6.1 icons for statusbar, made all new slider (matching the HTC Touch style), fixed and cleaned the background (found here on XDA). All info is in enclosed ZIP file.
Enjoy.
EDIT (March, 1st): Screenshots slightly out of date.
LATEST VERSION 1.5x: Initial release (March, 1st)
LATEST VERSION 1.4x: V04 (February, 8th)
Version history 1.5x:
Initial release
All files updated in order to comply with 1.50 version
Included original S2U2 1.50 Diamond style as well as my Diamond Glass style
Version history 1.4x:
V04
Updated "redcircle.png" by original TouchFLO 3D images
Updated "system.png" by original HTC and Windows Mobile icons (alarm icon from TouchFLO 3D, WiFi nad BT icon from HTC WM)
Removed black background from "system.png" in order to make it compatible with light wallpapers = no more black rectangles
Added landscape "manila" wallpaper
V03
Corrected some "manila" clock files
Deleted screenshots from the pack
Added two new wallpapers
Added "glass" version of wallpaper and clock
Updated "readme.txt" in both Czech and English
V02
Cleaned the wallpaperb.jpg
Intial release
Known limitations of the skin/S2U2:
(red = 1.4x, blue = 1.5x, black = both)
I haven't designed the skin for neither S2P nor call answering. The skin was designed to look exactly like on the pictures I've enclosed.
The clock format must be set to "HH:MM" (01:30 format), otherwise the clock will be bad-positioned.
You can't use the "show large battery" function because it would mean there are no flips under the clock (the flips are parts of the wallpaper - just have look at the templates).
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND TO UPDATE TO THE LATEST 1.5X VERSION SERIES.
Very nice work, i know some released a similar version earlier but this looks like it fits in with TF3D alot more. Thanks!
Nice work, thanx

Great job. If I may make a small request though as to change the white flip clock to the glass flip clock? I would really appreciate it. I use the glassclock on tf3d so it would just match better thanks in advace

Even though I said there would be no updates or whatsoever, I think that shouldn't be a big problem for me. If you were able to get me a screenshot or point me, where to get the source files, I can give it a try.

Nice work! Just a little note - why do you have the "flips" moved slightly to the right? Is it on purpose? Anyway - I've made another version if anyone found it useful.

Done and included in both pack (since V03) and templates.
Farkin Sweet! Thanks a ton for creating this, I REALLY appreciate it. Especially the templates! (Once I realized that it wasn't actually a real flip clock and half of it was part of the background.)
Great to hear that - anyway - just a little note - I haven't received any answer from the glass clock author, so I had to "rip" the source files from manila themes using the Manila Editor. The numbers are made by myself (actually edited), but I hope it looks pretty much like the original you wanted.
Wow, good job on that. I opened your glassclock template in Photoshop, inserted my own wallpaper, and sharpened it. Here's how it came out. (the only glitch i have found so far is that when the clock goes from 12:59-1:00 that the numbers slide over and no longer match up with flip clock outline.) Because of this, I'm not sure if my wallpaper for landscape will match (I have a TP). But I made one anyway. I also added a little more dimension to the slider and posted it.
:Edit: I got the glass to look a little more glassy/transparent. Now if only I could get the one in tf3d to be the same lol
The thing is that the clock format must be set to "HH:MM" (01:00) instead of "H:MM" (1:00) - there's unfortunately no other way. But I think I've mentioned it in the readme file. And what more - that's true that I haven't made the landscape wallpapers either.
EDIT: I've added the ZIP file containing the landscape templates. Thanks for your great idea!
Thanks for another template. Glad I could give you the idea. I took your advice about the clock and other than the a big "0", it's balanced. so I can deal. I also got bored and remade the slider icons again, and again, and again check 'em out! tell me what you think.
I think they're pretty good!
Great stuff. Thanks for your help.
Is there anyway to make the flip clock flip? Mine does not flip.
As far as I can tell - it's impossible.
That is what I figured. thanks.
