Analogue clocks yet ?

---

I know people are using clocks from the Diamond forum and Ive noticed some popular people from that forum also cooking ROM's but has anyone got an analogue clock to work or know how to create them ?

current TF3D on HD does not allow for analog clocks (not implemented). You can use analog clocks, but you will loose the calls list and upcoming appointments.

Thats one of the reasons I want an analogue clock. Ive tried various ones from the diamond forum but they all show a black bar at the bottom of the screen.
Is the implementation something that HTC have to do?

well here is one thing i figured out this morning. While installing a digital Christmas clock i found on the diamond forums, i screwed up my screen as you describe. i thought it wierd because usually you don't do that with the digital ones, they pretty much just swap out not problem. I noticed that an extra manila file was added to the clock archive I downloaded. that file being "1c684cd8_manila"

I placed the one that came with the HD back (attached below in this post in a zip) in the /windows folder and had my screen back and the clock works fine. Anyone interested in trying an analog clock and copying this file back to /windows to see if this makes the current analog clocks work? I am too tired ot mess whit it right now lol.

wouldnt go for a analog clock for exactly the same reason

As for implementing its up to HTC what to implement or not, dont think anyone can push them to make a feature happen. So we've to wait and see what the release in the future.

Meanwhile we can try to patch the current manilas a bit Many details are known, and many little improvements are already done. I guess there's much more possible with the current knowledge, i'm currently working on a few tools to dig a bit deeper inside. Not a major breakthough yet, but one step beyond.
