How the hell did he do it? I thought animated Widgets with aosp wasn't possible. Really nice job, wish it had changeable font though to match my theme. Combine this with mnml text to get weather info and its awesome.

You could just get your font of choice, rename it to Storopia.ttf, put it in the assets/font folder in the app, and put the app in system/app :p

Yes, that's possible. But I am not sure if the size will be exactly right as the clock is currently tweaked to display right with Storopia.

But I think it would be a nice option to enable some advanced options where you can change font and some other tweaks on how the clock renders. Though is won't be on top of my priority list.

I think it looks awesome. I'd be using it if it would allow me to choose what it does when I press the widget, such as opening calendar.

Well, you are in luck. I already have this change ready and will send out an update very soon (as soon as I get that one nasty bug squatted).

I will take this into account. I think I will implement both, but as a different size widget. The idea I have is to have a 4x1 and a 4x2 widget, both where the date is optional. On the 4x1 it will sit on the side and on the 4x2 it will sit beneath.
The 4x1 widget with the calendar next to the the flip clock sounds sweet!!

Could it be that you have your home-screen locked?

Thanks, very nice widget :)

2 things:
- Is it not clickable? I'd like for it to bring me a news/weather app or whatever
- It looks very small on my Optimus One. Is this deliberate?

It works nicely on my Nexus One GRJ22 (stock). As all the guys said before me, it would be great to have the choice of having the date added to it, and the option to go to the alarm when you touch it. So keep on it, good job ;).

PS: when i put the widget away from my homescreen, it still remained on the background as a working process. I hope this will be useful for you ;)

installed this on miui, cant move the widget once placed and cant get rid of it! nice otherwise though.

There are other people out there with the same problem. They all seem to have MIUI rom. Not sure why as I don't have MIUI.

Is there anyone here that has heard of this before? Google won't give me the answer :(

Launcher: Launcher Pro

Thank you developer about this nice animated clock!

I agree that wish pressing hour open calendar and minute a clock or this are setable values on settings. Pressing this widget on your desktop can be done there from application menu to see version or other greetings.

Adding month name or days is not my favorite number one if they are in English format like June (current month) and days use 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, AM/PM etc. format. Very welcome if they are coming directly from your phone language and regional settings. Then my thumbs are up.

Talks "cannot see this app on Android Market" could be that current user is using leaked or custom ROM and it is not registered to Googles server, yet/ never will be. You need either Market Enabler or hack to your settings (just one simple ASCII file) or just clean your Market cache.

Here are some my screencaptures (potrait and landscape) from my Samsung Galaxy S with Laucher Pro interface, Widgetsoid, Beatiful Widgets and Scrollable News widgets. Launcher Pro give me a feature that I can resize my widgets size and my current number of colums is five (default is 4). Enjoy.

    Can we get jelly bean support please?

    JB support is coming. I've got a fix in place but still need to do a lot of testing (darn fragmentation).
