I though Id start a thread to increase interest in a replacement clock app.

We have a replacement clock app with portrait support, thanks to CepiPerez& ade.

Its still a work in progress, but is almost complete (IMHO).


DOWNLOAD
(version 31/10/11)

TO INSTALL/UPDATE:
1 - Rename /usr/bin/worldclock to /usr/bin/worldclock.bak (if you wish to backup)
2 - Copy new "worldclock" file to /usr/bin/
3 - Reboot




NEW

where exactly is the problem?
the new clock can't be started directly, you have to copy it to "/usr/bin/worldclock" AFTER renaming the old!
The original clock is a link to maemo-invoker.

Here it works quiet good, the inactive alarms were previously not displayed correctly (instead of the time only a long number was displayed...) also the days when the alarms should occurs weren't displayed only a number was shown here...
But the replacement clock now is showing the alarms correctly! Thx for that cepiperez!

You need to chmod it and set dbus service to use it

1. Rename the orginal name to others.
2. Place worldclock to /usr/bin/
3. Xterminal:
root
cd /usr/bin/
chmod +x worldclock
worldclock

by the way, the alarm is not work for me, date and time not match at show after set alarm, and no icon show at status menu, but bitrocky mentioned his alarm is correctly
