Open home - small analog clock skin

All,
First, I hope I'm posting in the correct forum here, if not please feel free to move where appropriate.
I'm running open home and have an issue with skins and the default analog clock widget. The problem is that once I switch to the open home big analog clock and switch back to the regular analog clock widget that it is no longer skinned with the currently enabled skin, it just has the default android skin and nothing I do will cause it to skin the regular clock widget with the currently enabled skin.
It seems that only after you install open home will it skin the regular analog clock widget but once you change it to big clock and back again it will never reskin it.
Any open home users know how to fix this?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I assume you have tried to reapply the skin? I haven't seen that happen. I test all my themes before I upload them on the market and I bounce between the 2 clocks I haven't had that happen. I have like 140+ themes that I've done it on.
Update: I just took screens of both clock on the screens at the same time

Launcher7 and widgets

Hello everybody,
I use Launcher7 on my SGS2. I know about most other launchers, and yes I know they support widgets way better, but I really like Launcher7's style. The only thing I am having a hard time with, is finding widgets that are compatible with this launcher / that fit in the tiles while still being readable.
Does anyone know some widgets that work well with this launcher? For now, I have found that (with a little bit of patience) the following widgets work great (next to the widgets provided within the launcher):
* Animated widget pro
* Advanced clock pro
* Google (play) music
I would love to hear from other Launcher7-users about other widgets that work for you! Please, do not post messages about other launchers, I am fully aware about their existence!
you need to experiment I have not a significant issue w/ widgets on L7.
Click on special tiles, select widget, the you get options menu:
1
2
full screen
Experiment! 1 w/ full screen
2 w/ full scree
2 alone
1 alone etc
this process gives you diff size tiles.
Some large clock widgets may be a little off I agree
good luck

Eliminating Lock Screen Clock Widget

Total wet behind the ears, noob first post.:silly:
I was unable to find the answer on the forums so I thought I would type one up. On my first gen Nexus 7, running a CM nightly it seems the user is unable to eliminate (only replace) the clock widget on the lock screen for a cleaner look. The way I found around this is to download the UCCW app by VasuDev, a free app that enables you to custom make widgets, then just create a completely transparent one (set the alpha setting to "0") and have that as the lock screen widget.
Hope this helps.

[Q] Clock doesnt refresh

Made the most simple Zooper widget you can imagine, the standard clock:
Code:
#DHH #:#Dmm#
. It's on my Nova home screen. The widget size is small. Phone is Galaxy Note 2.
The problem is that it doesn't refresh every minute. Never had that problem earlier.
Anyone knows what's wrong and what could be a possible solution?

resizing widget

Hoping someone can help me....
I am running ditto's latest RC2 with S5 Mod. I have also installed x2 fakejaps pullup as was posted on the ditto thread. This Mod changes the launcher to 5x6. I have also installed the 5x2 weather clock to match. The problem I am having is I usually use favourite contacts widget on one of my homescreens, but fav contacts widget is only 4x and when I drag it to homescreen it is out of line (sides of widget chopped off). I want to either change the fav contacts widget to 5x or get the 4x homescreens back but still keep the working x2 pullups.
Can anyone I ive me a guide on how I can do either of these options?
Thanks in advance
Scotty.
