Gratia - Flip numbers in clock - HTC Aria General

Hi
I have the HTC Gratia with Android 2.2.
Is it possible to put the HTC clock to flip the numbers down everytime I unlock the phone?
A friend of mine as the HTC HD mini with windows and the clock flips the numbers down. I like that animation, is it possible to install or modify my original HTC clock?
Thank you in advance.
Regards

You could try one of these: http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/free+flip+clock.
P.S -HTC Gratia is not the Aria but they are very, very close (Sort of the European version of the Aria).

Actually, Gratia and Aria are just different marketing names for the exact same device with the board name Liberty.

Hi
Thanks for your answer.
Is there any chance to modify the original one to do that? Or make any adaptation? I like that widget very much with the weather and all... It seems to me there´s no widget exactly like the HTC clock, is there?
Thank you.

No, making modifications to a widget is impossible without the source code.

I use fancy widgets pro. You can download a user uploaded skin in the app called ht7 that looks almost identical. I love the htc clock too.

The answer to your question is No. The flip animation would be a copyright infringment of HTC's ip, of the Sense clock, which is why you don't see it available anywhere. Closest we get is the skins for Fancy Widget and Weather & Toggle Widget, that very very closely resemble the HTC clock.

I agree so until Htc releases the Sense sdk its a no go for now.

No, the SDK won't help with anything. They are not releasing the HTC Sense source code. I don't know why people keep implying this.

HTC News Widget Missing?

One of the let downs is that the HTC News Widget that is present in the Desire rom is missing on our incredible. I've pulled it from the rom and attempted to install it but it simply will not work. Once we get root it should be as simple as pushing the app. Has anyone had any success getting it installed?
I have installed the News Genie widget that we used on the Moto Droid.
Here is the actual news widget taken from the Desire I believe.

Yeah I was able to pull it. Just no way to install it right now sadly.
I used that one we used on the Droid, like spotmark posted. It is the same thing, just not with the semi-transparent widget.
At least we have that until someone "makes" a themed one.
The one that I posted is the naked one. No framework.

Not sure what "naked" means, but that is the normal "unskinned" one (it isn't tranparent or translucent or anything).
I thought they wanted the themed one?

The Inc has this widget already. If you are looking to theme the widget (or theme in general), you can now root the Inc and do all that.
EDIT: sorry, you asked exactly that ... lol ... I misread your post. I cannot delete this post though, so I guess I'll leave it.

LOL! No worries! I was freaking out because before I posted in here I updated the HTC widget list on my device and still didnt have the HTC news widget and was kinda confused cuz I dont have it in my list of HTC widgets.
just tried and got the same result, has there been any luck yet? Cause i don't wanna have to change roms to get it
p.s. i have the stock rom with root
You can Get the news and weather widget here. It the same apk from the nexus one and has been tested and works with no flaws on the incredible.
http://www.wjddesigns.com/2010/05/15/htc-incredible-goes-retro-nexus-one-launcher-and-apps/
1)Scroll to the bottom of the page, and download "Genie Widget".
2) Place the downloaded file on your SD Card.
3)Use "Astro" file manager or another file explorer to find and install the app.
4) you can apply the widget by long pressing the home screen and selecting the "News and Weather widget"
5) Enjoy your new Widget!!!!
Any thanks would be much appreciated and PM me for any Questions!!!!!!

Sense widgets without using sense?

I love several of the sense widgets. Is it possible to get them working on launcherpro or adw? Just curious. Thanks for the help.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
As far as I know the widgets hook into the Sense UI, but if they don't it seems like it wouldn't be hard to hack them to work with something like LauncherPro.
I don't believe modifying the Sense widgets to work with another launcher is even a legal procedure.

Obvious sarcasm is obvious good sir, also it's obviously not an easy procedure otherwise it would already have been done considering all the devices running sense and all the devs working with these devices and not one of them has yet to accomplish this.

For starters this is not a Sense widget this is a widget skinned to look like the HTC Sense clock widget. Secondly Beautiful Widgets did this first and also got a cease and desist letter from HTC much like these guys did. This is not a HTC widget that has been ported for use on a different launcher like the guy in the previous post has asked. So your response to mine is null and void due to the fact that it has nothing to do with the topic at hand or my statement. I never said that someone couldn't design widgets to look like the HTC Sense widgets I said the widgets themselves apparently can't be ported for use on other launchers. Thank you and try again
all i want is the Music widget

pure music widget is a skin for our music player. I use it with launcher pro. That way when you play music it still will let you skip songs from the lock screen.

For those that don't want Sense

So the best android build so far is defintely is the Stone series w/ Sense IMO. But if you don't want the Sense home screen just install Launcher Pro from the market. Then disable Sense, click the menu (windows) button, choose Applications, choose manage application, find Sense and clear defaults. Click the home button and you will be prompted to choose a launcher, select Launcher Pro. Done.
You still have the HTC keyboard and dialer, which is what I prefer, you cannot use HTC widgets, but lose the HTC Launcher. Best of both worlds for myself.
yeah...

I'm sure "Most people" don't know about Android after just coming over from WinMo. Just sharing what I just figured out and there is no faster/ stable build to choose from.
is there a way to install a sense build and change the apps loader to something like launcher pro and at the same time use the widgets such as friendstream and news fro htc sense?
i would like that to very much happen but was unable to do so when i tried it on a sense build..
is there a way to change the people app to the default froyo contacts?
^what he said!
is there a way to have everything be stock froyo?

[Q] Does your HTC Flipclock actually flips?

I've read some about it and that's way i've taken interest in it and found out that my rooted wildfire stocked 2.1 flipclock doesn't actually flip. But to others they say it flips.
What about your wildfire?
Mine doesn't flip. ):
This is because wildfire don't support animation..
Great
And no lwp too

Actually Wildfire supports animation....go to menu/settings/sounds & notifications/animation and there you can choose the various settings.....none, limited or full

Still the clock doesn't flip though?
I'd say it has to dow ith the ROM itself. When I first got my Wildfire, it was running the Vodafone 1.25.something. When I started mucking with it and flashed to the stock 1.37.405, the clock no longer flipped.
Clock doesn't flip because htc does not allow in sense ui 2,0 but new htc sense ui (Desire HD) support it again...I hope you undersud me..sorry about my bad english.
Just checked FW 1.37
Animations enabled but it just changes the number, no flipping at all.
Been wondering about this as well, nice with some clarification.
would be nice to see, if someone could make it, port it or however that works.
My desire or wildfires 'flip clocks' don't flip either
Are there any work-around to make it flip?
tried messing around with the zip file from thatdudebutch who ported the htc flipclock from desireHD, and flashed it on my wildfire. The clock actually flipped, but since it's a different resolution, therefore it's too big and messed up. Dunno how to convert it into a lower resolution, anyone interested in porting it into our wildfire?
would love to ... but I cant code!

[Q] Stock Android News/Weather widget/app on Sense?

Is there any way to get the stock news/weather app/widget on the MT4G's stock sense? You know, the stock android one that has top stories and weather? I can't use the cute flip clock widget for weather anymore - it looks cool, but I like to have a more detailed weather report than just high/low temp. The stock weather has more info and a great UI, plus I'd like to save screen space and use it for my news also.
Anyway, any way to get it?

Those widgets are built on the sense framework. You must be using a ROM that is Sense based to get it.

I'm running a ROM with stock Sense, but I can't figure out which widget you're missing.
I believe you are talking about the genie widget, its the google news/weather app. I have it on my stock t-mo rom, pulled it from cm6 and just installed it like any other app.

Lol, hilarity ensues. Do you just like start a new account every few days? Thanks for the helpful post.
Er... The OP asked if it is possible to get stock Android widgets on a phone using Sense ROM. Most answers seem to focus on the completely opposite issue: "You can't run Sense widgets under stock Android ROM". Why? Does anyone actually read the questions these days?

Yes we read. even someone with a Sense ROM said "I don't know what widget you are talking about".... so it must be something different that what Sense has....
i wish we were all perfect like you.
And yes you can run AOSP .apk's on Sense's framework.
To the OP here it is; if you are talking about the one in my attached picture....you can download it from here.

Just download the apk, install it and pick the widget

I have Fancy Widget version 1.3 that I believe they pulled because it looked too much like HTC sense flip clock and weather widget...it's flippin' identical (pun intended). Look for Fancy Widget version 1.3 apk and that will get your clock and weather widget...when you click on the weather it brings up a 4 day forecast and gives you the option to bring your browser to your favorite weather website...wouldn't leave home without it!
