Help needed for app mod - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys - I am not sure this is the right place - if not can Mods kindly point me a correct thread or something. :angel:
So - found a nice little clock widget (free) but I kind a need it black text version - it only displays white text.
Did try to connect original dev but after like 6 months (I can be patient You know) waiting and after several unanswered emails (via G.Store link) and dev-s homepage I am kind a desperate.
Is there someone kind enough to take a look and maybe tinker with it so there will be black text version?
Thanks people for help in advance

Little "push-up" - maybe someone, somewhere

Hope still lives...

Little help, Please!!

I am either not using the right search terms, or searching in the wrong area...
please forgive me!
What I am looking for has got to have been done before, because I see it in themes and ROM's. I have been running "Da Mad Scientists" Onyx theme, but am looking for something more simple.
All I really want is:
1) Clear flip clock
2) Background on all tabs
3) Annoying Sprint logo gone from the top right of the screen
4) All the ugly yellow gone -please.... please.... please.
There is more, but I have been able to find CAB's to address everything else. I have found some CAB's that attempted to clear one of these 4 items off the list, but they did not work.
The main reason I want to simplify is because I did not realize how slow my phone was operating until I broke it and got a replacement. With the stock phone, I have little to no hesitation after finger taps. When I had it "tricked out", I had to wait... sometimes up to 2-3 seconds between taps. (not long, but it seems like forever when you are in a hurry)
I am running a 100% stock Sprint Touch Pro with a 16G storage card if that helps.
Thanks for your time!

Is it possible to move the date information from below the clock to above the clock in place of the annoying Sprint icon?
If not, how about removing the alarm on/off notification?
Thanks again!

I take no credit for any of the following cabs. I have attached a .rar file which has:
The clear flip clock (you have to install sprint2flip clock first) and also a clock without the background flaps.
Mun's BG for all Tabs with Analog clock (if you dont like the clock, install one of the other cabs to replace it)
And the manila file that overwrites the "sprint" logo (I believe)
You have to forgive me because I no longer use the stock rom on my TP, I use WM6.5 so I cannot provide screen shots of these items, also, I want to emphasize that these are not mine, they are from when I had the stock rom and wanted to do thesame. ALL CREDIT GOES TO THE ACTUAL MAKERS OF THE CABS, NOT ME!!!
Thank you so much!!
I have saved the .zip, will test & trial soon and let you know!
Thanks to those that created the CAB's!

With the Manilla:
I am sure that I am doing it wrong; I have never delt with file replacements before. This is a shortend version of the error I am receiving...
Cannot copy... ...Access denied
Be certain that there is enough storage memory, that the destination is not write protected and that the file is not currently in use.
With the mUn Back4AllPages_AnalogClock CAB:
The clock quits working, it displays "Orange" instead of "Sprint" in the upper right corner, and the slider icons on the bottom are off center.
It does, however display the background on all tabs...
All the other CAB's work flawlessly, and I am really appreciative of your help putting these together in a ZIP for me… and thanks to all the people for their hard work putting together the CAB’s.
Just a note: 1-Sprint2FlipClock CAB also changes the top bar… it displays the date and reduces the Sprint logo to just “Sprint” text.
A little help with the Manilla would be great!
Thanks again!

Manila file
you need to use Resco Explorer or another variation of such, like total commander, this is because the regular file explorer will not allow you to overwrite the files that are in the "ROM" portion of the phone.
You can find TOTAL COMMANDER here: http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
PS. Total Commander is also attached to this comment. Hope this helps.
Thanks so much!!
With your help, I have this phone ready to rock-n-roll!!
I hope I do not have as many issues this time as I did last time... boy it was slow!!
Thanks again!

[Q] Theme Advice

Hi all,
So I downloaded the background graphics as recommended on a nother website, here as a matter of fact.
http://customandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/original.jpg
Now I wasn't sure where to find the clock at the top right hand corner, this is what my homescreen currently looks like, any help is appreciated, or any advice as to what to add would be helpful please.

Kind regards.
it looks like you only got the background piture. You'll need widgets and icons to make it work. However I'm very new at this so I can't help you

Maybe I may make it

[Q] What's the name of this ROM?

Aparently I cannot post this question elsewhere so I ask you all here.
I saw once a custom ROM that i liked very (very!) much. The idea behind it and the general looks of it. But i don't remember how it was called.
Maybe you could help me a little. I'll try to describe it:
-it has a clean interface like a list on the homescreen (not like classic android homescreen more like windows phone 7/8 homescreen)
-every message or email it is shown in this windowish homescreen
-every item on the homescreen has on the left side color stripes depending of what kind of item it is (email/message/notification etc)
-the central item on the homescreen menu is somehow a little highlighted
That is all i remember from the screenshot i saw. For my device (S5660), the ROM developement i remember it was interrupted or stopped but i really want to find it...maybe someone ported it...
I also remember the developers built a website especially for the ROM and it was mainly for high-end devices. I found the ROM very original and practical and i truly want to find it.
So... anyone knows the name of the ROM?
Thank you so much in advance.
I don't know but your device developement has no where ner stopped, it has android 4.0. Here is a link to all the roms for it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1407
thanks but...
Thanks for the quick response but i didn't say that the entire android developement for my device has been stopped no no...you get me wrong. I said that i remember clearly that the developement on the ROM i'm searching for had been stopped for gio.. Thanks for the link anyway... I've tried to find it but nothing so far. I still hope that someone with a high end device knows what i'm looking for.

is this what you are talking bout? http://spiritdsgn.deviantart.com/art/Windows-Phone-Style-for-Android-355556107
unfortunetly it is not
It is a nice finding so thanks man...but apparently it isn't what i'm seeking. The main screen It is more like a list of notifications in real time wich have on their left side tiny colored stripes depending of their nature. But again thanks for the answer.

[Q] Simple Glass icon help?

Hi all,
So I'm using the theme simple glass.and I want to make a few changes to the original icon set on the home screen. Since these are shortcuts, they point to an icon image but I am having a terrible time finding where they are stored. So if you can help with that that would be great. The follow up question would be: do most designers include a broader icon set or just the ones they used? Which would then lead me to ask where to find the rest.
I know these are basic questions but I am just starting down this particular road and need to get some beginner crap out of the way. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for your enthusiasm, and glad to have you on board. Themer's icons aren't really stored, they are built into the app. Frustrating but this is to prevent users stealing the icons that are from other designers.
For the icons, unfortunately the designer who created the icons has now removed them. After much searching, the only result we could find was this one here. The only problem is that it's a paid icon pack, and we can't guarantee that the pack will look the same.
Sorry about that!
- Marco
Thanks Marco. I think I have it figured out. I am hunting through some icon sets for Everything Widget. Just need to find one I like. Great app!
