My Rezound seems to offer no way to change the Home Clock. I can add clocks, but I can't change or delete this one clock that is set to Arizona. I turned off Location Settings, too, but I still have the one Arizona clock (presumably because that's where Verizon ships from).
I am also trying to show a summary of a few scheduled activites on my Home screen, to no avail. It seems useless to me to have a Calendar widget that only shows one activity, because I would think people would want to see at least a few so they know what their day might be like, without having to always click on something. I know I have the option to select different views; trouble is that the other views are too big to be allowed to fit on the Home screen.
Any help in these areas would be greatly appreciated.
FWIW, I don't know how Android got to be so popular. Although it LOOKS cool, it seems very clunky trying to find things (things are often not sensibly placed), and the stuff like changing a clock or displaying activities should be easier to do. Perhaps I am missing something? :crying:
That is a bug in the stock HTC CLOCK.
I live in upstate NY and my clock insists I am in new York city (if I use current location) and there is absolutely no way to delete that location.
I have tried deleting and reinstalling the clock etc and NYC just keep reappearing no matter what I do.
If I go to edit where it should be possible to delete NYC it isn't even listed.
This phone has been out for how long now? I run a software company myself, and there's no way we'd let a simple little bug like that ruin our reputation, never mind leaving our customers frustrated for this long. In fact, we'd have fixed something like that within days!
Thanks for letting me know that I spent nearly 20 hours on this phone, trying to figure it out. Do you happen to know if there is anything like a registry editor or something we can use to edit settings under the hood?
What about having an agenda listing on the Home screen, like Windows Mobile used to have? Know anything settings that might allow that? Or, am I wasting my time, there, too? I mean, first the clock, then I beat my head against the wall trying to get my Windows Media Player playlists to go across with HTC Sync, only to give up and manually copy them using "disk drive" mode. That's actually almost worse than the clock thing, in that HTC Sync offers the playlist option, but doesn't even see them on the PC!
For the calendar, which widget are you using. If you are using the one that is only 1 grid tall, that one is only made to show 1. If you need more than 1 event, just use the larger calendar widget.
Problem is that the other larger sized widgets aren't allowed to be place on the Home Screen, because a message says there is not enough room. SIGH

Tap the home button while on the Sense Rosie homescreen to bring the view out to display up to all 7 panels of the launcher. If you don't have all 7 active you have an option to add a panel. You may also delete an entire panel at once by tapping and holding the panel, then dragging to Delete. This allows you to add a fresh blank panel afterwards.
Alternatively, choose a panel to clear out manually. Tap and hold on icons and widgets until you enter an editing mode where you may reposition items or drag to the Delete icon.
It is simply wanting you to add a panel and/or clear out clutter manually first to ensure it doesn't delete your existing items.
Also note the Play Store has other launchers available you can try instead of HTC's Sense. Some allow more homescreens, but you will lose use of the widgets exclusive to the Sense interface. Some have comparable widgets integrated and there are apps with widgets in the Play Store too. It is suggested to get a feel for the stock Sense launcher a bit longer though.
Apologies for the double post, but wanted to address each topic seperate and Multi-Quote after the fact.

Take this with a grain of salt since I'm unfortunately running Sense 4 and not 3.5 or 3.6 right now. But I believe there should be a setting if you tap on the clock widget on your homescreen, go to the World Clock tab and hit the Menu button. If not there, then *somewhere* with the Menu for World Clock, perhaps when you select Edit if not the first option. If someone else could chime in on this.

A note to both of you: as far as this World Clock tab is concerned, this is precisely how a traditional traveler's clock works. It makes more sense when you realize the Home Clock is meant as the Home Time Zone. Just as when you set a time zone on a PC or forum, it usually just provides a list of major cities to choose from. I will say Sense 4 shows the current location in addition to this "Hometown" and unsure about older Sense but again, the primary function of World Clock is "nearby major city's timezone + time zones across other frequented or contacted locations."
Now jmoreton10, if the *weather* widget isn't showing your proper location, there is an issue with your Location settings. While the World Clock only can add and locate major cities, Weather should be able to tell where you are exactly by zip code. I may have had issues like that with both Verizon and Google location on; try using just Google location if you confirm Weather is not showing current location properly.

I don't think you understand what we're saying, or maybe we don't understand what you're saying. The Home clock does NOT display MY home. It displays someone else's home... in Arizona. I am in California. Moreover, the Home clock cannot be edited or deleted on the Home screen. However, if I add a traveler clock to ANOTHER panel/desktop/screen, I can choose what cities I want on it upon adding the widget, but once again, once the widget is added, if I click on the clock, I see the same Arizona Home clock in addition to the other cities I added. IIRC, Arizona does not change times when we "spring ahead" or "fall back" like we do here in CA. So, I think that kills your theory of a nearby major city in the same time zone, doesn't it? Same with those people seeing Detroit when they live in NY. Personally, I am really starting to hate Arizona!
New phone came in. Don't know if there's a difference, but it appears that there is a way to change the Home Clock. It's not very intuitive, but:
Click on the Clock Widget. On World Clock, choose the Menu button. Click Home Settings. Type your City, or SUPER HUGE MAJOR CITY nearby. Type VERY slow, because there is a very limited number of cities. If you type too fast for the app, it will give you a "not found" error. Dumb, I know, but at least we all now know WTH is wrong with this thing.
Hi, I'm using Knockout theme, and I have a bug that came up today. I think it might be because in my location we use Monday as first day of the week. Bug: the temperature values are on top of each other, and the indicator is on Wednesday instead of Sunday.

Here is the sting for the weather icons and min/max.
$#Df#=1?[ox]-120[/ox]$
$#Df#=2?[ox]-80[/ox]$
$#Df#=3?[ox]-40[/ox]$
$#Df#=4?[ox]0[/ox]$
$#Df#=5?[ox]40[/ox]$
$#Df#=6?[ox]80[/ox]$
$#Df#=7?[ox]120[/ox]$
Each weather icon, and min/max text layer has this value in it, but its numbers shift around. The one listed above is for the Current Weather icon, so the tomorrows weather would look as follows;
$#Df#=1?[ox]-80[/ox]$
$#Df#=2?[ox]-40[/ox]$
$#Df#=3?[ox]0[/ox]$
$#Df#=4?[ox]40[/ox]$
$#Df#=5?[ox]80[/ox]$
$#Df#=6?[ox]120[/ox]$
$#Df#=7?[ox]-120[/ox]$
Each icon sifts the x coordinate up one space so by day three the x value of 0 would be at the top, and by day 4 it could be the bottom.
I can fix this but its going to make the sting more complicated, and I will need to rebuild them on each device.
I Should be able to make it dynamicly change based on regional date formats by using $#DE#=Sun || #Df#=1?$ as an if this then that statement, but I will need to rethink how to write out the strings above. If Zooper renders more than one [ox][/ox] then it ignores all of them.
I cant tell you why its rendering all in the same spot, but if you want to fix the issue yourself, for our region you would change the string to the following in the TODAY layer for weather icons, min/max layers and the day indicator layer.
$#DE#=Mon?[ox]-120[/ox]$
$#DE#=Tues?[ox]-80[/ox]$
$#DE#=Wed?[ox]-40[/ox]$
$#DE#=Thu?[ox]0[/ox]$
$#DE#=Fri?[ox]40[/ox]$
$#DE#=Sat?[ox]80[/ox]$
$#DE#=Sun?[ox]120[/ox]$
You would put the 0 x coordinate for the today layer on what ever day today is when you make the changes. Then shift the numbers up by one line for each consecutive day.
I will rethink how to write this out to try and make it dynamic to the region and reupload the theme, but it wont be by today.
Feel free to hit me up on Hangout if you have a question.

Just wanted to congratulate you guys on a great app.
I have a Galaxy Mega 6.3 i9205 which has a resolution of 1280x720 but unfortunately a default 240 dpi.
Most parts of various themes working correctly, its just a few items are not correctly aligned.
From experience, the 240 dpi causes problems with other launchers and changing to 320 dpi fixes those launchers but makes the rest of the interface far too big and breaks some of the menus.
I was wondering if there was a way to adjust some of the themes manually or anything else I could do?
Much appreciated.

Hi, it's hard to say as Themer is designed to look what phone it's on, in this case the Mega isn't fully supported. The advice we could give would to to maybe try changing the resolution as well, but we can't guarantee this will work and that you should try it at your own risk.

This is why I created a similar thread a few days ago. Themer does not play well with non-stock DPI. If widgets and other graphics could be placed relative to the display margins/center (instead of absolute pixels), they should render correctly regardless of DPI.

Zooper already does render things like this. Try out something like Simple Sea or Pro UI. I rebuild these themes so that the anchor points for objects are relative to the side of the screen they are on. IE Top Center, Top Left, Top Right, Center, Center Left, Center Right, Bottom Center, Bottom Left, Bottom Right.
The only things that you will likely have issue with are when Zooper adds spacing, so layers such as Regular Text thats curved, Series based layers, and Progress bars that have spacing splits. Also Regular and Rich Text, that is set to an anchor of left or right, but also has a text alignment of Center, will be off by a bit. These are all as you are saying based on absolute pixel. Everything else in Zooper is based off of DIP (device independent pixels, http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html#density-independence)
There is NO WAY to fix these issues without breaking every Zooper widget, be it stand alone or in Themer, that was produced before your suggested change.
We do not support non-stock DPI. So if you want to use non-stock then you are going to have to do a little leg work on your own to fix the themes on your device.

In my original thread, I mentioned the fact that graphic elements were still irregular when DPI was changed to stock. This persisted after multiple uninstalls/reinstalls, cache & dalvik wipes. But thanks for the feedback.

Themer for Xperia U
I have an Xperia U ST25i and i have trying to install themer on it....while i can install it. I cannot access the themes.
I know that you currently do not support Xperia U for this app.. but i just wanted to know if there is a work around to this by changing the Dpi of my screen and if so, could you point me in a direction where i can get further information. Thanks
This would be a great addition for those roms who change the default dpi. In my installation of slimkat most themes are simply unusable,

Full Xperia U support is on its way. You can try modifying the DPI and resolution, but we'd recommend just waiting a few more weeks, it will be worth the wait

Hello, newb here to XDA, Themer, and Android in general. Hopefully someone will be so kind as to be able to help with my issue. I've searched the forums to no avail.
So I'm trying to build a theme within Themer and, for the most part, all is going well. But I just cannot figure out how to get the dock to accept icons/shortcuts/Themer actions so I can put the phone, internet, app drawer, sms, and camera icons there. 'Show Dock' is checked in the Advanced Settings, but I'm unable to actually get anything to stick in the dock area... any icons dragged to that area just bounce out. I attached a screen shot illustrating the problem.
Am I missing something obvious? Or maybe the Themer Beta app hasn't had this functionality implemented yet? I've seen working docks in Themer themes ('Twilight' for example), but maybe those designers used other tools to build the dock and then imported it into Themer?
I'm using a Moto G with Android 4.4.2 and Themer 1.47. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi defektiv1, welcome to the community.
How did you create this theme? Was it created from an earlier theme? If so, which one? There might be a widget blocking the apps.
If you use the Twilight theme, then remove the icons, are you then able to insert your own?
As long as the "Show Dock" option is enabled, a dock should be present and allow you to place icons within it.

I believe it was the 'Rainy Day' theme I started with as a base. I think there were only two widgets in that one and I deleted them both, and then turned on 'Show Dock' in the settings as that particular theme doesn't use one.
Experimenting with the 'Twilight' theme, I tried moving the icons off the dock into the main area and then back to the dock. The icons for some reason ended up smaller than they were in the default setup, and also aligned a bit higher, but they did still function as they should, staying in the dock area while swiping through the pages. Attached an image showing the smaller icons. I also tried replacing the icons that came with the theme with a random app from the app drawer, and it worked fine, except again the odd sizing and alignment issue.
The dock area is definitely there in my theme; when the 'Show Dock' option is unchecked, that area is just part of the normal desktop area of each page, and moving things there is no problem, but of course things don't stay there when moving between pages. When 'Show Dock' is enabled, it won't allow me to drop anything there... any icons dragged there from any of the main screen areas just automatically bounce back to where they were before the attempted move.
Went ahead and attached a copy of the zip in case it might be helpful.
Thanks a lot for the help, this could be really fun if I can just get this issue sorted.

More experimenting: When I first started building this theme, I had set the desktop grid size to 8x16 on the recommendation of the article "How to correctly lay out and anchor your themes" on the themerapp.com site. Thinking that might be related to this issue, I tried setting the grid to 5x8, what I assume is the default for my phone, and now the dock area is working as it should. So it seems changing the grid size has something to do with this issue. The smaller size and higher positioning of icons only happens when initially dragging them onto the dock from the main screen area. Once I selected a new Themer action to put on a home screen, the icons on the dock correctly re-sized and re-positioned automatically. Attached an image sequence to illustrate. Hope this helps find the bugs so I can use other grid sizes with the dock.
thank you: Good:

Hi All,
I set up Yahoo weather to be showing current conditions as wallpaper on lockscreen and it worked for a week or so. Since yesterday I only get a random Flickr photo instead of live conditions. I have reset touchwiz settings and Weather settings with no result.
Has anyone had such a problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?
TIA,

I have the same setup apart from location being on. When I set the Live Weather wallpaper for lockscreen, the first time I unlock it, the animation shows up briefly and then disappears.
I have found the Live Weather app and cleared its cache and data,, rebooted and still no luck.
It's a location issue, that is for sure.
Does Live Weather not show images from your current location that match current weather conditions? That's what mine seems to do anyway and I think it works well

Are you saying that the app BY DEFAULT is going t oshow Flickr and only when no imagery is available Live Weather? Is the app not called Live Weather and should it not show Live Weather and not imagery from Flickr? I think you misunderstood the name of the app?
I know and fully understand the name of the app, live weather doesn't necessarily mean pretty drops of water or sun flares, live weather could also mean images of your location with current weather conditions

Meteo lockscreen

To clarify: the app for lockscreen is Yahoo Meteo Live and it automatically show a photo from flickr that match the current meteo condition of the city that you set up in the Samsung clock/meteo widget (or from the current location if you have this active). In case the city is too small or unknown (or the data connection is poor) the app display fixed images matching meteo conditions. In both case it shows animation for rain, hot, fog, etc. I love this feature and I set a lot of cities (my preffered and last visited) watching beatiful pictures of them switching one by one every time I want. The strange issue is that in the last days the photos are loaded only for some city (thing never happened before!). Now I can see the pictures only for the current location and the city of New York! I think Yahoo has changed something... Clear the cache and reboot are useless for me.
Did this ever get resolved? I have the same problem. I used to get local images on my lock screen matching the time of day and weather conditions. Now I only get the weather - clouds and sun with no info on where I am.
I installed the yahoo weather app from the market and it this is what I used to get from the live wall paper (I recognise some of the photos), but if I load the weather widget that powers the live wallpaper it seems to be powered from accuweather? I'm a bit confused as I haven't changed anything.
