Haha... you guys come up with interesting ideas...

We actually do have ready the Lüm-Tec concept "Switching Daylight - MaxLume" watch, which has moon phase, day, date - but so far, no am/pm, nor a tourbillon. As I wrote in another thread, I strongly hesitate to make any skeleton watch due to legibility reasons (and, in this case, missing "templates", too - that would be massive work).

With so many functions, available space would become an issue, definitely. But still possible, I would think. Especially with s square dial, maybe...

That´s a nice one, too - I´ve seen Botta design watches before, but forgot about the Uno 24. To make the change of the date earlier than midnight, I think a script could make that happen, but I fear that this particular watch won´t find too many "customers"...

I was actually thinking about making a Breitling Cosmonaut, another nice 24-hour dial watch, made for usage in space (no joke)... :D

But whatever will be done, it will take time anyway. Please be patient.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stsalkit:
any idea as to when will you upload the Lum-Tec concept with changing night and day functions?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
I have to make the cab, once I am back on my PC, I can do it... as of now, I am enjoying the summer heat under a sun roof, cool drinks ready... :D

It definitely won´t take long anymore...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stsalkit:
...remember.... too much sun is not good for you... move on please
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mafesama1:
...this clock won't have many customers... ???

I happen to love celestial navigation.

Imagine a clock far from beauty..

Far from the Breitling Cosmonaut you have just talk about...

24 hour face. From 00 to 23...

12 position up or down depending on your preference, such as up

if I feel like looking toward the north, or down if facing south...or

may be it will be choosen depending on the hemisphere I happen to be, north or south.

A single hand to show the hour.

A little inner ring with minute dial.

A liitle inner rong with seconds dial.

A moon face indicator...

A tide indicator (Casio already have some with this)

Bright and shadow zones on the numbers, indicating sunrise an sunset times.

An inner area with a number indicating date and two little dials showing

the headings to the sun at sunrise and sunset.

An inner dial indicating equation of time, or time of sun meridian passing as well as angle of sun above horizon.

A sound system to emulate clocks such as the Big Ben....

I would willingly pay 1000 US dollars if you make that available for my HTC HD2 CHT equipped phone.

I know you are under the sun. Enjoy and take your time.

If needed, I can provide the maths requiered for all but tides.

I want to thank you again for you outstanding work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mafesama1:
Sorry....I missed a dial to show....

.....actual heading to sun.

Thanks !

A skeleton cage isn't important. Just thought it would be pure awesome. That watch I told you about before(the one I wear daily) is a skeleton cage watch and so I thought it would be pure awesome to see that on my HD2 as well.

As far as all the different complications are concerned, I think it could be done. The Tourbillon could be put in a lower corner or bottom center. The AM/PM could be just to the left of where the hands will be mounted. The Date could go to the right of where the hands are mounted. The moon phase could be placed directly above the hands.

The Lume-Tec transition would just be icing on the cake.

I really think that the square face should provide plenty of space. It would likely be the coolest watch face to date and would definitely look great on the phone itself. :D

Hi tictac0566, graphic editing, I can do, Mode9 file, I have some idea, but lua script, is way beyond me. I use m9editor to edit Mode9 file. But what do you use to edit lua script. Any simple layman instruction on how to do it. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
It definitely sounds more difficult than it is - if you just need to change some numbers (eg. angle of the date).

All you need is the "Manila Kitchen". Once you have decompiled an original lua script file, you can easily edit it with "Notepad2", and finally re-compile the file.

Inside the lua script file, you will find something like this for the angle of the date:

The value you need to change is "DayDate.Rotation.z" to fit your clock layout.

If the date sits between 4 and 5 o´clock (like the M24, as an example), the value is 315 (360 degrees minus the angle for 1 and a half hours = 360 minus 45, as each hour is 30 degrees). If it is exactly at 4 o´clock, you deduct only 1 hour (30 degrees) and put 330 as the value.

Finally, the position can be quite easily found with the coordinates in your picture editing software - and sometimes "trial and error" procedures...

tictac0566,

I tried to convert QT files from the cab but did not manage to extract minute and second hands from it, the QT to PNG converter I use always crashes.

If you can provide the name of the tool you use ton convert PNG to QT, I will try to do the reverse operation.

Thanks.

Hi there, I appreciate all your work greatly, I think it's really... unreal and it's indeed a wonder how much perspective the CHT has given to the mobile itself. So thanks are in order to the creator of the CHT!

As for a small technicality I'd like to point out is how important it is that a small piece of information is clearly stated on the first page of this thread, and not so much further ahead: that you HAVE TO install the .cab on your DEVICE's memory and NOT the Storage Card's! Initially, I thought I had done everything right (had installed the right version of CHT and CHTEditor for the app to run and was tapping for a good amount of time on the "Menu" --> "Edit Home Layout" options), but the clock I had installed kept refusing to show up! I was close to giving up and uninstalling the cab altogether until I read your reply to another xda forum member. Maybe I should have thought to install the app on the device, but... I didn't (does that make me stupid enough :) ?) and maybe it is the case for other members too. Anyway, thanks for taking my point into consideration and for all the valuable time you put in the project for the entire community. Congratulations from the bottom of my heart
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
I am using m9editor, it´s part of the "Manila Kitchen".

If it won´t work, you can PM me an e-mail address, I can send you the files.

Thanks mate for the comment.

Indeed it might be too "self-understading" for me that system relevant items need to be installed onto the device.

Either I will add a hint in post #1 (maybe at all places where any cabs are mentioned), or I will have this thread closed - I am planning to make a new one, mainly because this one has become a monster. The new one will have some more structure, some re-worked stuff, and maybe some new models in the future... but not now, I prefer to enjoy some summer time as long as it lasts...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kangmas:
hi tictac0566, just to let you know your effort are not wasted. I have finally managed to edit lua script, with lots of trial and error. Cant do it without you. Thanks buddy. here screenshot of my android transition analog with reposition date.

Help Needed

Hi Guys

Sorry to ask but I have been reading millions of threads and can't find the answer. I have installed the clock cabs to my device, have the necessary apps installed to my device but cant get the clocks to show.

Would someone take the time and do a step by step reply and teach me. 3 hours of me trying to do this is killing me.

Sorry about this.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stsalkit:
I assume you have Cookies 1.8.5. Then:

1. go to home screen

2. press "menu" - bottom right hand side of your screen

3. choose "edit home layout- level 1 -main home

4. (step 3 enters you into editing mode) - press and hold on the current clock

5. in the pop-up menu choose next

6. if needed choose next again

7. after your clock shows you can either press "done" bottom left, or "advanced" for more options
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rsole:
Thanks so much for the quick response. I managed to do what you said but only have the standard clock options, not the new ones that i have downloaded.

What I did was install the cab files of the new clocks to my device, but cant seem to choose them and apply them...any idea? Thanks for your help...your a star ;-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mafesama1:
I had the same bug until I understood....

...that I have to configure the clock to, say, only digital.

Then I install the new analog clock, restart sense, acces to the configuration menu on CHT and change the previous digital clock

to the new one, or a mixture of digital and analog...

Hope it helps you...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] spursfan1966:
I thought that I was finally getting smarter...I was downloading stuff and getting it to work...then I find these totally cool clocks...but I am to stupid to figure out how to make them work for me....I have the latest version of cookies home editor...but I can't make your sweet clocks work! What am I doing wrong???? Please help me somebody...I'm begging
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stsalkit:
In order to be helped you need to provide some information. Rom, CHT version etc. In the meantime, check that the clocks you are downloading are compatible with the version of cookies you have in your HD2 e.g. if you have 1.7.1 or older you cannot use latest clocks. Also, maybe a good idea is to completly unistall CHT, clocks etc. do a soft reset, make sure that your manilla returned to its "previous" state, and start over again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] davemazo:
Can I suggest that the uninstall procedure is highlighted in large red capitals or something similar to ensure that people don`t have to do a hard reset when things go wrong, like I`ve just had to.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
Even though it´s written quite a few times in posting #1, I think I might add it in a special section. But, to be honest, I think there won´t be any "executive proof" solution.

As an example, I just quote one of those notes:

The special mod clock sets do come with the "Original Clock Cab", in some cases even with a readme file. This should be a hint, too.

Anyway - whatever I do, there will always be some issues, too many people don´t read anything.

However, a hard reset is not necessary either - re-installing CHT if anything went wrong with any clock is a nicely working remedy, too. This very problem has been discussed in several clock threads, including this one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] davemazo:
Sorry if it it came across a bit stroppy, it wasn`t meant to be.

I did read the whole thread, missed the bit about the uninstall routine, but read other posts where people had the same problem as me. The difference with my problem was that I couldn`t get into windows to reinstall CHT, all I could do was go online which didn`t help so I could do nothing to fix the problem other than hard reset, losing emails, texts everything.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] davemazo:
Another question while I`m here. I`ve reinstalled CHT 1.85 and CHT Editor, then installed M24 Maxlume clock but it doesn`t seem to work. I`ve followed the procedure in CHT, changed to analog clock but I still get the CHT clock. I`m obviously doing something wrong but don`t know what.

Doesn`t matter, I`ve managed to sort it but I didn`t end up with the clock I was expecting, I thought I was getting the one with moon phases etc but got a different one. Never mind i`m still very happy with your excellent work, many thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stsalkit:
Dear, when will we see the Lüm-Tec HD2 Concept clock with changing night and day versions? A few posts back was awaiting just for the .cab. Did I miss it?

Thank you in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
As I was busy with other stuff and too lazy, enjoying the summer time, I didn´t make this cab...

However, rat_2665, the creator of the scripts for all the special mod clocks, made it happen today... please check his thread, I´ll add this later here once I use my PC again...

Btw, rat´s thread is a great source for clock mods, many in-depth descriptions and how-to´s, including templates. Definitely great stuff, and it´s worth a read.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stsalkit:
Thank you both - this is really excellent work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fuuunkdat:
thanks tictac0566

:eek: Ive only jsut seen these clocks and must say they are my favourites of all the many clocks available for cht. Went straight for the final package and installed the concept lume tec. Wow love it :D Thanks again tictac thinks this one is a keeper for me :cool: Keep up the good work! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] futureshock:
hey there...

is it possible to get a white B7 Clock for use with GTX Theme ?!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
For now, with the final package, I stopped making clocks for CHT.

I´ll re-start doing some more stuff maybe in August/September time frame.

A B7 GTX might be something like this:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] futureshock:
ok thx anyway...

i've done a quick (and dirty) GTX B7 on my own now...

looks very nice
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
Hey, that looks nice!

I´ll do "my" version a bit later, as stated above, together with some more

new stuff, most of it coming thanks to ideas and requests.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mafesama1:
I love the Lumtec Moonlight concept...

Thank you very much.

The mixed version is outstanding but the visibility of the Daylight

sphere is second to the Moonlight so I stick to that.

Any plans for anticlockwise clocks after your summer rest ?

Look....

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] F.Happel:
This would be very very nice. I still have your ROM OneStepFurther working on my device. And it works perfectly.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Will101:
TicTac, thanks for your work on the Lum-Tech watches.

I've only just installed Co0kies Home Tab on my HD2 and it's already given it a complete new look, feel and functionality!

When I saw the fantastic day/night luminescence switching clocks you and Rat had made I had to have them! (In fact that was the main reason I installed CHT ;))

The M24 is my favourite design but I wasn't so keen on the chrome/black bezel combination in Rat's latest switching version so after a bit of fiddling I managed to take the 20F62884_manila file (normal clock background) from your M24_Daylight_Black clock, install Rat's M24 switching and then overwrite the silver bezelled 20F62884_manila with your black version. Voila!

Sure, a bit of a faff but now I have a black bezelled M24 that glows in the dark :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ole316i:
I need some help please, i can´t find this background, an how can i make the "Weather Background" transparent like this...?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jps101:
Hello tictac just got my first windows phone the HD2 had a sony ericsson P910 so very new to themes etc installed one of your clocks and wallpaper looks fantastic thanks very much.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
Mate, you´ve got amazing ideas... let´s see what´s possible after the summer break... ;) (oh, and btw, I never get tired to mention that all the amazing mods are created by rat_2665, I am using his templates, and I am very thankful to him for this great work!)

Man, I cannot agree more, even if I am now on another ROM...

Great to know that people get creative! Thanks for the comment!

The wallpaper itself is in the package in the first posting. Is there anything else I can help you with?

Glad you like those!

Firstly thanks for your clocks they are georgeous. Your analog clocks can be returned to normal cht using the file provided in your zip, how do you return back to the original cht digital flip clock from the lumed versions?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
Here you go... (originally provided by smaberg)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mafesama1:
Mate, you´ve got amazing ideas... let´s see what´s possible after the summer break...

Thanks so much...

Please bear in mind that when I said "a little dial that shows..." it very well could mean "a little dot that shows...or points towards..."

In so doing, sunrise and sunset as well as bearings turn out to be nothing

but a smart and well placed set of dots any analog clock bezel will sustain, willingly.

Everything the very best.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] SocalLX:
Great looking clocks, I tried to load some on my phone (HD2) and when I try to extract them from my sd card it prompts "file can not be opened because it may in the wrong format, or corrupted". Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Lüm-Tec als Hintergrund trotz abgeschalteter Anzeige

Hallo zusammen,

könnte mir einer in deutsch erklären kann, wie diese echt starken beleuchteten Uhren leuchten, auch wenn das Telefon im Standby den Bildschirm abschaltet und die Diplaysperre aktiviert ist.

Besten Dank im voraus!

Grüße, Steffen H.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
Most of the clocks are packed into zip files. If there is no decompression software on your HD2, you´ll get the message you describe. Try to decompress the downloaded zip file on your PC, and copy the extracted files to your SD card. Once done, double tap the cab of the clock you like and install it onto the device, not the card.

Sorry, the language of this forum is English - please stick to this rule.

Clocks are not displayed in standby mode. The device turns off the whole display. On the other hand, you can use clocks with some lockscreen solutions.

In German:

Bitte in englischer Sprache - das ist hier bei den xda devs Forenregel. Danke!

Die Uhren werden im Standby Modus nicht angezeigt - das Gerät regelt zuerst die Beleuchtung herunter, dann wird der Bildschirm vollständig abgestellt (hängt alles von den persönlichen Einstellungen ab). Andererseits gibt es Lockscreen Lösungen, in welche analoge Uhren integriert werden können.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rogerperk:
OK, I give up! I've been screwing around all night trying to find these clocks on my phone or how to switch between them in my home screen and found nada. I'm at work now and my boss is wondering what I'm doing! HOW do you switch between clocks!! I love the look in the pic but just can't get it. Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rogerperk:
Yeah, I did. I had to download them from the imbeded link on the first email to my phone to get them to work but they will extract. What I can't do now is find them on my HD2. Working on that...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Symondo:
i spent a while last night installing this too..

however after installing 4 clocks i then carried on reading to discover i had to only install 1.

the links from the main page worked fine for me.

I installed the M24, daytime/lume clock as i think that looks awesome - and felt quite please with myself when i had it working. Once you have installed the cab - i wondered why it wasnt working but required a soft reset to apply the changes.

I think this is 1 of those mods that so subtle yet extremely slick - adds a touch of class to an already brilliant phone - definately a 1 up to the apple brigade
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rogerperk:
I agree, now that mine are working. I just wish there was a way to know how and when the daytime/nighttime clock worked. I adjust the setting but I really don't see a difference.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
I´m really sorry, guys, I´m still in "holiday" mode...

I think that I will have to include some "beginners" Q&A in a reworked thread for the clocks, the first posting has become too long and messy through the time. I actually never planned to make so many clocks...

It is true that you can only install 1 clock at a time, if you want to change.

It is recommended you first use the "original CHT clock" cab (which replaces

the clock files inside the Windows folder of your device),

In a second step, you can use the cab for the new clock you would like to use, now as a last step, soft reset your phone (or restart Sense, another simple option offered by CHT itself).

The switching clock is the one exception, it changes its design at 8am in the morning to the daylight look, at 8pm to the nighttime look. As there is a script behind, you cannot just change this. Maybe in a future release...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rogerperk:
I've been talking backchannel to Rat over the weekend and I actually have everything working now. Much better! I love the clocks and all the instruction I got in this. I understand this alot better now. You guys are very helpful and I appreciate it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] juggs:
I'm wondering how to make the background around the clock and weather transparent. I'm still searching. Thank you for these, tictac0566, these clocks are tight!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Symondo:
had a bit of an issue with this mod in the end :(

It appears this mod has crashed manila causing me to perform a hard reset on 3 occaisions which is dissapointing as i really really liked this mod. ive had to install each modification at a time before locating the offender and unfortunately the M24 - daylight/Maxlume.cab was my issue.

Unsure why - but the versions i have are :

ROM 1.66.405.2 WWE

Manila: 2.5.19211619
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rat_2665:
Sorry for that. But I saw at the issues in your last posts that you were heavy modding. The analog clock files are distinct from other manila mods since the 1.8.5 version of CHT. Either you installed a clock not for this version of CHT then Manila crashes at restart or it is another mod. If the screen is freezing after some time then it is another mod. Taskbars for instance are a sensible thing.

You have to take the M24_Daylight_MaxLume_for_CHT_1.8.5.CAB, no other version of M24.
