What the heck is this???
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HLKL4jVu6A
I mean, if springboard can do the real flipping action and look neat like
this one, why cant it be done decently on other Android devices?
Ive spent a few hours searching for a decent app... they all suck! Can anyone help me?? PLEASE??!??

Sense analog clock
About the closest I've found is "Sense Analog Clock" on the market.
I think the MIUI interface has one that is close also.

Thanks for your help!!! But I'm looking for the actual animation FLIP...
Thank you nonetheless though!!

have you tried "Animating Flip Clock Widget"?

Is there really a market for this? I've always used HTC so I've always had it, but I don't see why it would be difficult to write one from scratch. What's it worth? I might give it a shot.

Thank you for your response, and yes.. I have tried that app.. but it is not getting updates from the vendor at all.. It think it's just an anonymous data collector.... Can't resize, Cant do Weather... Yadda Yadda, Oh yeah, and it also get's clipped when you go landscape.
Geene Poole- I think there would be a market.. the issue is, I heard that it has been done in the past, and the dev's have gotten C&D letters from HTC for patent infringement... If I were a dev, I wouldn't give two squirts of piss about the C&D letter considering HTC is a China owned company, and we all know how much China respects other peoples patents and trademarks
If I were a Dev, I would have done this a long time ago... Can I assist with anything?

Huh? All HTC Android phones running Sense 2.0-3.5 have the flip clock. ( Those running Sense 1.9 like Desire has it too but it doesn't have the flipping animations though.) Which version of Sense are you running?

Read the permissions and how the dev never updates it.
I asked for the source code, but he wouldnt release it nor does he want any help with moving forward with development.

Wallpaper help request - Can anybody with skillz please help?

I have a wallpaper that I REALLY want to use on my Vibrant. I just can't get it to center the way it needs to be. I use the weather widget clock, (Sense looking clock widget), and would like the prism to fit under the clock.
This picture was taken at Primrose Hill in London.
Any help or advice would be VERY GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Mark
I'm no pro but I'll see what i can do...
Take a screen shot of it on your phone with all your widgets so i'll know how it has to be adjusted. Then post that here.
Ok. But, my phone is not rooted. Can I still take a screenshot?
I'm not sure... I use a program called shootme and with that you have to be rooted. Dont know if there's something else out there that'll work.
Why aren't you rooted? It's sooooo easy to do and does so much.
Btw, can't you just highlight the picture and choose the part you want so that it fits to your needs? Just resize when choosing the wallpaper...

I almost always root my phones. But, I haven't really had any need to with this one. Can't think of anything I want that it doesn't already do. (Except screenshots I guess...haha).
No, that actually stretches it out bad. And, it makes the pyramid huge. I tried resizing, and it puts the pyramid right behind the clock.
If you have ADB working, you could enable USB debugging and use DDMS to take a screenshot.
I'm not the greatest at Photoshop/GIMP, but here's my contribution:

I used the smudge tool, hopefully it's not visible. It's exactly 960x800, and I used Fancy Widget as a guide (the one you use is paid and goes with another widget, right?).
Yeah that pic is amazing

I REALLY appreciate the help! The smudge work is good. But, the light entering the prism on the left is off a good bit. A would also like the prism itself a good bit smaller. I am not criticizing at all. I am thankful you went thru the trouble. Just not quite what I was trying to get accomplished.

Also, it would be really cool, (although I don't know if it is even possible), to still have the people at the bottom remain in the picture. It looks like they are paying homage to Floyd. Haha.

[Q] Widget locker

Is the app worth buying, as it supports themes that look really cool But how long is the delay before it kicks in? because that is what would most annoy me
Thanks for any information.
Yes it is worth it, I get no delays, you will get delays on sense roms.
I brought it and its fine would you recommend any themes for out size display?

Thanks Kevin i found them My phone wouldn't look half as sexy without you, and your right there is no delay with CM i forgot my mate has it and he uses sense.
I was also wondering if anyone could resize this theme to fit QVGA for me? I would appreciate any help thankyou.

[Q] Sense 3 Weather Live Wallpaper Animations

Hello,
i have a simple question: does anybody know if the animations of the htc weather live wallpaper are getting looped?
and what about the animation when you open the weather app? do they stop after a time or are also looped?
thanks,
a user
I dont think they are looped anywhere

would be quite pointless for a live wallpaper. but no offense, but i do not ask for an opinion. i want to verify this. opinions i saw many about this topic.

HTC flip clock with animation?

Hello
This has problably been asked 100000000 times but what is the best widget that looks like the famous HTC flip clock BUT with (flipping) animations? I know Beautiful Widgets and I think another one has it but without the animation.

I currently have one without weather, but it does have a flipping animation. I am also currently working on a new widget that also contain weather, but this might take a little while to complete so you will have to wait for that.

Recommended WP8 Apps

Hi all. I just got my Lumia 920 today and am loving it so far (except for a yellow tint my hardware buttons have). I have never used any Windows phones before and had a couple of questions. Is there a decent app that will let me put a clock live tile on the homescreen? Also, does anyone know if you can put your own custom notification sounds on it? Thanks for any help anyone could offer.
You should be able to modify sounds in your Settings.
As for the LIVE Tile for a Clock? I would say, give it a Month and I am sure something will come out. Just recently we got the SDK (well, the general public). Also takes forever to get these App's accepted.

Plenty of Clock apps in the store. If they say "With a live tile" then they should have the ability to be pinned to start.
For anyone with the HTC, the HTC app may be pinned and will display a nice large digital time.
I just got my 920 Friday. I too want a live clock that has big numbers. But I tried every clock in the store and so far none have a 'live' tile. I'm assuming that some devs will make them soon now that they finally have the SDK. In fact the HTC clock states that 'due to limitations' it's not live so I expect it will probably be one of the first.
I'm hoping for the same with a calendar. The clock and the calendar are the two things I dislike about my phone. But give it a month or two.

I love this about my HTC 8X. I wish this app was available for other Windows Phones or something similar to it. Just like the other member pointed out, the SDK has only been out for a few weeks. Should start seeing some more apps popping up.

It's unfortunate that there have to be exclusive apps.
I mean, no one is going to buy an HTC phone just because it comes with a big clock live tile.
What's the benefit of exclusivity?
Why not help further the entire Windows Phone community?
I have the HTC 8X and I quite like the integrated clock / weather tile.
I would just just as happy with two, separate, tiles.

true, but its useless from my location... inaccurate weather forcast. :/
anyway, i ve just bought htc 8x and i didnt find any thread regarding this device.
back on topic;
to the autor of topic, i dont think you can add custom tones for the notifications... for ringtones yes

I was directed to http://www.wpcentral.com for an HTC 8X forum.
They seem to be a much better place to talk about Windows Phone.
I have also found that you can only add custom ringtones (not notifications).
