[Archtects]

D85* variants, works (to my knowledge) on all roms that support lg quick circle.
marshmellow QC Coming soon as soon as i can.

*Warning: Although this is working fine for me and others, i cant guarantee the safty of your device. This is a very simple Flash and complications are very very VERY rare. However i am not responsible for any damages done to your device please Always Backup With TWRP Before hand. This Only Works With TWRP. And (as far as i know) Only for D855-D852. Flash at your own risk if your using a different model number
​

I want to make more i have future ideas for a superman clock and a number of other clocks if you have any ideas im more than happy to try them out. Just Message me. I make clocks to work for Lollipop and Kitkat. If you Run lollipop on g3 and have a ROM and you chose Xposed over quick circle "DONT FLASH THESE"

Space Clock:

• Lollipop: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zoi9o79v4xk5f64/space%20Clock%20for%20lollipop.zip?dl=0
• Kitkat: https://www.dropbox.com/s/75lm8gelp2olcq8/space%20clock%20for%20kitkat.zip?dl=0

Update!!! Im working on bringing my space clock to marshmellow & working on a brand new clock called "around the world" which will have a number of moving objects a hot air balloon and clouds, a Plane and a number of monuments form countries around the world. While will also slowly rotate.

Contributors: Thanks to Lillo75 for zip And Ashrockr for assistance too.

I can't decompile it with apktool, so I can't help you.

 

[Ashrockr]

Inorder to decrypt the file you need decompile the apk.( There are some great tool for easy decopilation of apk).
I've already modified these clock for g2 running g3 rom which has a rectangular case.
Moreover to remove the date which appears behind your second's hand you need to edit the smali file which you'll get by decompiling the apk.
Hence you need to learn how to decompile and edit smali file.

Have you successed in decompiling android 5.0 system apks using apktool? it fails for me.

I too couldn't decompile the apk from 5.0 even though it has been updated to decompile 5.0 apps.

Mmm well im running kitkat atm. So i night try that then. Ive got rid of date i just want to customise it more to behonest lol. I like digital but i want spinny clock. Is apktool the best to use??

Green:- Hour
White:- Minute
Orange:- Second (All working good. Couldn't remove the date bg.)
I attached a zip file which will add digital clock to you analog clock (3rd clock), just flash using twrp.
It didn't add the files to change the clock face so that you can add your own style. Also it won't remove the date.
Flash at your risk. Also DO make a backup of LGAlarmClock.apk if you want to remove the mod.
Tested on cloudyG3 2.1 for G2 (G3A based rom).
Only for kitkat.

 

[bekham76]

Is it possible to make it work on aosp based ROMs??
Thx

okay i cant edit the XML at all its encrypted and ive tried loads to try edit it, and if you want to remove the date thing then you have to start coding from the WHITE analog Clock, but i cant edit the xml otherwise i might be able to stop the double bg, its only because "I imagine" the digital code is looking for a bg and because its been planted on top of the analog its using the same variable to call the same bg, there for reproducing it lol, but i cant do anything with the xml file i cant edit anything i cant view it at all lol, its encrypted.

and if i wanted to i cant seem to recompile the apk i edit wont do it so im still stuck at this lol

Okay! I think!! (This is me just assuming) Your xml works not by plonking all the digital code into the analoug code but your calling the digital code from the digial clock xml? So is it possible then to edit the digital.xml to remove it looking for a bg. And flash it? The same way you made itflash the clock? Sorry so many replies but i keep thinking of different things lol

Yes you are right!!
It is possible to edit the digital clack too. If you want to change the background of digital clock then edit the b2_quickcircle_digital_bg.png in raw-xxxhdpi folder.

Here's what i've edited in the analog_quick_circle_black.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout android:background="@android:color/black" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:custom="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

   </RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

May be i've edited this a bit from the last time.
But you can get the idea from it.


And if you want to create the zip file for it then put this xml file in your decompiled folder of lgalarmclock.apk/res/layout and compile it. Then open the compiled apk with winrar and extract this file(analog_quick_circle_black.xml) from there and place the file in zip(vrtheme/system/priv-app/lagalarm.apk/res/layout). Compress and flash it.


Also i've created a new for g2's window case:- View attachment 3075006
