After being on CM for some time, the one thing I don't like is the stock AOSP clock app, I'm wondering if there is any way to port the stock Samsung ClockPackage.apk one over to CM/AOSP. I tried pasting the stock .apk into the system/data folder and setting permissions, but it still doesn't work, so I'm assuming it relies on TW framework. Nevertheless, would it be possible to port it over? It would be great. Thanks.

I have no way of confirming this to work as I have not tried it myself. However, you may be able to flash something like this in your recovery. (Click here)

It'd be advise to backup your ROM in case something goes bad. That would be my recommendation however.

This is a weather widget, I was actually referring to the clockpackage.apk found in the S3, as shown here



After some research however I'm led to believe it's not possible to use it on non-TW devices due to the necessities of the TW framework. Thanks anyway.

That's correct, sorry if there was confusion.
For some odd reason I thought you were referring to the TouchWiz weather widget. I don't know what I was thinking in all honesty. On the subject of a TouchWiz clock on AOSP, I don't think that'll be possible as the clock runs a TouchWiz framework. It's very difficult to get things working without that, and that being noted, you really cannot do much unless Samsung open sources it. I did find a S1/S2 TouchWiz clock working on JB, it may work on KK too. Click here for the thread.

Thanks, that's pretty close to what I was looking for, appreciate the effort.
