htc flip clock

[702DROID]

now that we have root acces on the cdma hero is there a way we can get the flip clock with animation from the gsm hero onto our sprint heros

Should be pretty easy, provided the flip clock will work on 12 hour time as well as 24 hour. I'll start looking for a user that can dump the apk out so we can play.

Doesn't the sprint version already have a flip clock? I'm using it now on my unrooted sprint hero. It's the one that's in all the pics.

yes it has the flip clock but on the gsm version the clock really flips to the new number and time with our cdma(sprint version) we dont have or get that animation for the clock ....check youtube for videos of the gsm clock and compair it to the clock you have on your hero

any luck finding the apk? i asked on the xda forums to and so far nothing is turning up

 

[Jerry Hildenbrand]

None yet. Thought I had it, but what was sent to me was the CDMA version I already have . I'm thinking of just downloading a GSM Hero rom and pulling it myself when I get the time

this is from mcr2.9, rename to .apk. compliments of kendong2 on xda forums xda-developers


is this what we need to try this out ?????

 

[Jerry Hildenbrand]

That's it. I'll try when I have some time. If anyone else wants to try:
1. Nandroid backup
2. Copy backup somewhere safe
3. Rename and copy to sd card
4. Install through package installer
5. Reboot.

If it doesnt work it will need packaged as an update and resigned. A good place to find how thats done would be xda in the themes forums,

so do it just like if were adding a theme to the phone ???

recovery screen update zip?????

 

[Jerry Hildenbrand]

no. Just copy it to your sd card renamed. Use a file browser (I really like AndroZip) or the terminal to open it, you'll have the option to use the package installer, which will install it (likely over the default clock). Reboot and try the widget.

If that doesn't work and you have to package it and sign it, then you'll need to use the install update.zip from the RA.

do i extract it and put the renamed folder on the sd or rename the whole zip to apk i just go androzip and did the backup and downloaded the file to my comp

 

[Jerry Hildenbrand]

Do a nandroid backup from the RA.
Rename the file from HtcClockWidget.zip to HtcClockWidget.apk
Move it to your Sd card.
Open Androzip, find the HtcClockWidget.apk and click it. Use package installer to load it.
Reboot and try it. If it doesn't work, Load your nandroid backup from the RA image.

ok says cannot install on this phone that sucks

 

[Jerry Hildenbrand]

Better than not saying it a hosing it all up lol. Thanks for the test. Pass on the info to everyone that it will need to be put into it's own little ROM update. I'll bet lots of folks want this, and anyone working on ROMS will wanna put it in. If nothing else Saturdays are dead time and I have to monitor all damn day so I'll muck with it then.

Does bricking the phone and having to flash the Sprint RUU count as progress? lol. Thought I was going to have to "lose" it and get an insurance replacment for a bit. I'm back at it though.
