Hi there,
since all the great tweakers seem to take shelter in this forum, I'd like to post my concern right here.
Actually I come from a german Leo-Forum, but there are so many links to the xda-guys, that I'm sure I'm better off here.
It's about the clock of the native homescreen. I'd like it to be darker, meaning that the sheets should be of a very dark grey for instance. Would it be possible to make a cab, that changes only the clock, leaving everything else as it is? I'm not much of an it-expert, so please excuse me, if this question is kinda silly.
Thanks so far!
I second this. Would like to add other clock options (analogue/digital/formfactor)

Don't we all?
I hate the standard HTC flip-style clock and I found nice ones for my HTC Touch HD, but not for the HTC HD2 (Leo).
So, I support this too!

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 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...
edit: found these two skins

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?

Tried this? Much lighter than RLToday. You can customize size, font, style, alignment...

another CLOCK ....
SpoonWatch1.1
^^**^^**^^**^^
The SpoonWatch will present the date and time on your mobile device with big fonts,
easily readable during the night and all with zero clicks.
Features:
² Big and Clear fonts— for night use.
² Automatic popup after turning on the device (can be turned off)
This version will work on Windows Mobile 5 or 6 only.
enjoy .....
the best solution i found is AlDate. Extremely low memory footprint, totally customizable (font, size, date, time, sec...) It is posted in this thread
My first theme, a science fiction theme based on the X3 interface and some simple sci-fi elements. The images say it all, so, screenshots attached. Used background attached as well. Install using Diamond TF3D Config 0.6.7 or higher.
It's not perfect yet, the clock needs some work for now.
Very Nice Job!!!!
I'm always looking for new Themes........
Thanks
Mike
Thats awesome. Keep em coming
Can you please post the manilla file with the clock ? or tell me wich one in the .zip file is... thank you.

Wow!
Keep up the good work!
Don't really like the clock, but I love the program-tab!
How's the image-quality, because the screenshot are a bit blurry?!
Maybe an idea to make the big-icons (center of screen while selecting a tab) a little bigger?!
Would be great!

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?
Hey, I've been using 6.5 for some time now and I think it looks real nice and sleek, but one thing keep annoying the hell out of me; the clock icon. It's just really ugly and sets down the overall impression of the today screen.
So my question is, is it able to be changed to a better looking clock icon?
Thanks in advance

The icons for the panels are in bronzeres.dll, I use PE Explorer to change the images, go to view -> resources
Well does anyone have any nice looking images that they have used to replace it with?
yeah, could someone post a dll file with a better looking clock?
hi,
I have a HTC Diamond 2, and I would like to change the position of the clock, the calendar and the call history on the today-screen. (I have a person as wallpaper and now the clock and the other stuff is at the same level as the face of the person. Therefore i can't see the face neither the clock ect. So I would like to move everything down a bit.)
Is it possible to do this and how?
I hope, that there aren't a lot of post to this topic, which I didn't found.
oh yes. I have found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=496072
that would be more or likely what I search, but the clock should be right above the call history and whithout that nice lady.
btw. the Diamond TF3D Config 0.6.7 doesn't work on my HTC D2.
thx a lot for your help!
