No clock in status bar...

Would anyone happen to have an updated JS3_NO_clock.zip laying around to remove the clock from the status bar in Serendipity 6 with her new JS7 base? I keep hoping I'll find it in the 'Dipity Kitchen, but I guess I'm the only idiot who doesn't want a clock in the status bar?

The JS3 will work, that is, it will remove the clock from the status bar... of course, it also removes your modem, makes your media scanner read you the alphabet and want to format your sd card, and all kinds of other things that make it totally not work it :)

Any help would be appreciated, for reference, I've attached the JS3_NO_clock.zip..

Also, if anyone could help in updating the bootanimation I would also appreciate it. I seem to be having trouble locating the files in the rom, they don't appear to be in the usual places...

Samsung Captivate running Serendipity 6 with Paragon6 1200-100hz kernel

[Captivate Themes and Apps] osendott:
should've read my post below bro, would've saved you some time and trouble, I did the same thing earlier.. yeah, re-install serendipity 6 and you'll be fine... I'm currently looking for a way to remove the clock in 6, not having any luck right now.. I can't find anything for a js7 based rom

sorry misread that, I thought you flashed the no-clock as well.. if you're looking for transparent notifications, new battery icons, etc., you can goto the ultimate online theme kitchen and select which ones you want, upload the framework-res.apk from the rom and it'll spit out a .zip for you to flash in CWM that will work just fine... image attached shows edited icons/battery indicator in notification bar from UOTKitchen (link in xda forum)

to answer your question, what you did wrong, most likely the base of the rom's don't match, which is why it's best if you use your own framework-res.apk file. or make sure what you're flashing is compatible with your rom. the OP (original post) in the rom's thread usually lists what it's based off of. in my case, I tried to flash a JP3 base on a JS7 and i got the same problems as you described.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] monoxide.tryst:
Um......i didnt think i needed to mention because i posted in the online kitchen thread, but thats how i got all the issues. Mind you i was't on 6.0 anymore.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] osendott:
Ultimate Online Kitchen != Serendipity Online Kitchen, they're 2 different things... Serendipity Kitchen is just for Serenditpity, UOT is for any rom provided you upload your framework-res.apk. the 'dipity kitchen probably hasn't been updated for the new framework yet, which is why I suggested you go to the other one and upload your framework so it will work for you. or just wait on the 'dipity kitchen to get updated, probably won't be far behind, I prefer the other kitchen however, more is offered...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ChanceM:
its been updated minutes after the rom droped.

i installed it with the redrom theme but there are a few things missing like the call button sti'll green and the status line under each of the items in notification bar, also in calendar everything still green and calculator.:( i just installed the stand alone redrom zip and everything works ok and is red
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ChanceM:
Did you actually install the theme or just make a battery mod with the REDROM base. The theme is on a separate page.

ChanceM
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ATT Intruder:
Chance, Everything in the theme took until I applied the add-ons on top and now the drop down menu is green. I applied the theme and all was red. Then after cooking the add-ons and using the redrom selecton the pull downs are green. Also, the transparent drawer did not take.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ChanceM:
the redrom theme comes with a transparent drawer why would you flash the Serendipity transparent drawer?

ChanceM
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ATT Intruder:
Thanks for the info, I wasn't aware of that... none the less, the other issues still exist
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ChanceM:
whats that?

ChanceM
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ATT Intruder:
The drawer icon colors switched to green. I am rebuilding without the drawer mod to see if that fixes it. Might have ben the lack of attention to detail on my part rather than the kitchen.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ChanceM:
Just flash the theme again then remake your battery mod package.

ChanceM
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ATT Intruder:
yup, I did... still no transparent drawer... I'll install just that add on and see what happens.

EDIT - NM... the app drawer is transparent... just hard to notice with my background. Must have been a senior moment
[Captivate Themes and Apps] reinbeau:
Pretty please?

Any chance of getting just the clock removed from the status bar? Just the clock, everything else can stay - please? It's so redundant....

I just flashed and it looks great with everything on here. One suggestion i have though is possibly adding more fots as an add on? I only noticed 2 choices the default and the second one which i am using now.

I always like options when it comes to fonts to make it have a more customized feel.

Do a quick search here at XDA and you will find tons of them.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] ChanceM:
I don't want to put something in the kitchen that isn't supported by myself or Mikey as I don't know that it will work with different versions as changes are made. I would rather leave it to the users that have the knowledge and experience to mess with it.

Stock Music Player

I tried to install the zip file for the Stock Samsung Music player but it didn't work. I checked in root explorer and the apk is there, but it wont install. I tried removing the Serendipity version but that didn't work either. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

[Captivate Themes and Apps] SSCaptivateNB:
I guess this is a possibility, but I downloaded it shortly after I flashed 5.12 when it was first released. I mean I plan on updating as soon as I get home, but I thought if I run into the same issue are there other alternatives?

Is there a way to uninstall the Serendipity version and then install the stock?

Or, is there an issue with something else like the Framework? I'm no programmer so I'm just shooting off the cuff here.

Chance or Mikey:

I've been wondering. Why the removal of the option to send MMS voice clips and the Voice Recorder in Serendipity? I found both of these very useful. I know the Voice Recorder is in the kitchen but it doesn't replace the ability to record and send voice clips via MMS straight from the Messaging app. Would that feature be easy to reintegrate?

Also, I found the stock Clock app that is available in the kitchen far superior to the one included in Serendipity because of the included Stopwatch/Timer. Why the decision to remove it?

Thanks for maintaining the ROM and responding to all these questions.

I just installed 6.2 from 5.12 and everything looks great!

I've installed the Green H battery and colored settings screen and they also look awesome.

One thing I am finding myself missing from 5.12 is the android robot boot image. I really liked the look of that and would like to have that instead of the new serendipity text with the green loading bar. Is there any way to use the old one instead (with Kitchen or some other way)?

I apologize if this has been asked before. Search doesn't seem to be working right now and the pages I looked through on this and the dev thread didn't yield any answers.

Thanks for your hard work and for this great ROM! :D

I am running Serendipity 6.2 but running ZeuBug (confirmed JS7) Theme I do however prefer the setting screen from the kitchen. Whenever I flash it over the theme it messes parts of the theme up. Would this be right? If so, is there just a stright cwm flashable version of the settings screen?

I was a serendipity user a couple of months ago (before the official KB1 froyo release). Now, I am using cognition 4.2. The only reason that I moved to stock was the froyo TWZ launcher (pinch to preview of home screens and app drawer). I knitter it sounds
[Captivate Themes and Apps] antonyvijai:
I know it sounds crazy but I like it. Question is: if I get serendipity 6.2 then can I use SGS tools and go to upgraxe stock apps in the menu and choose the GTG 5 icons TWZ launcher? Or it is only for KB1 modems? Please let me know
[Captivate Themes and Apps] xdahgary:
Yes you can.

Delete kitchen add-ons

I read this whole thread and could not figure out how to delete an add-on that I no longer want. I am running 6.2 and made a custom add-on .zip from the seredipity kitchen website.
