I've been using the HTC stock alarm, but I've noticed the only way I can access it to edit the alarm times and such is by touching on the clock widget that I put on my home screen.
Is there a way I can access the alarm without needing to have the widget up?

Hi,
I have a question about the clock. When I press the htc clock widget it first opens world clock. Then you have to tap the alarm tab on the bottom to go to the alarm. Is there an option when pressing the clockwidget to open the alarm first?
Thanks in advance..
Would like to know this to... Really miss patches from webos....

Lol so i'm not the only one.
Btw I allready tried to rearrange the tabs but this had no effect. When putting the alarm on the first place it still opens worldclock.
+1. Would love this too but sure there isn't a way to do it. No you're not the only one.

Strangest thing, the alarm function is missing from the HTC clock/weather widget. The other functions remain; timer, stopwatch, deskclock and world clock. However the alarm is still on in the task bar. Any ideas on how to get it back? I tried installing a new widget but the same condition still exists. Very odd!

Did you by any chance freeze world clock?
Did you accidentally remove the tab? If you tap and hold the tabs you can re-arrange them or drag them up to hide them. My guess is it accidentally got hidden.

Alright, let's see what everyone is sporting for their home screens!
Here is mine:
I like a clean look. I don't like having contacts scattered all over the screen hence the invisible folder under the contacts widget. I find organizing everything into folders where each screen is its own sort of "hub" keeps away from the traditional scattered grid-icon approach and allows one to better enjoy the wallpaper.
For the Lock Screen I am using:
Widget Locker https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS50ZXNsYWNvaWxzdy53aWRnZXRsb2NrZXIiXQ..
The clock widget is from Ultimate Custom Widget https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.vineetsirohi.customwidget&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImluLnZpbmVldHNpcm9oaS5jdXN0b213aWRnZXQiXQ..
Using the Dark MotoBlur UCCW skin https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=darkmotoblur.uccwskin.dsaif&feature=search_result
Notifications are from Missed It! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.igecelabs.android.MissedIt&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm5ldC5pZ2VjZWxhYnMuYW5kcm9pZC5NaXNzZWRJdCJd
The red unlock slider is the "RedLineMod" available through the Widget Locker app.
The "LED On/Off" button is a custom made Minimalistic Text https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.devmil.minimaltext&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImRlLmRldm1pbC5taW5pbWFsdGV4dCJd widget, and activates the LED through TeslaLED
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50ZXNsYWNvaWxzdy5mbGFzaGxpZ2h0Il0.
Everything else on the lock screen is a widget made through Minimalistic Text.
Home Screen:
I am using NovaLauncher in place of the stock launcher https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50ZXNsYWNvaWxzdy5sYXVuY2hlciJd
The main home screen with the clock, CPU usage, battery etc... is all made through Minimalistic Text. The phone / messaging etc.. icon is from the Minimal Text Theme icon pack https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=minimaltext.kyledesignedme.adwtheme&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm1pbmltYWx0ZXh0Lmt5bGVkZXNpZ25lZG1lLmFkd3RoZW1lIl0.
For the other screens I am stacking the Games, Contacts, Apps, and Media widgets made in Minimalistic Text on top of a black bar from Minimalistic Text (allow overlapping widgets in NovaLauncher settings)
The folder icons are replaced with custom made icons from Simple Text-Text Icon Creator https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.redphx.simpletext&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5yZWRwaHguc2ltcGxldGV4dCJd
Lastly, the invisible folder under the contacts widget is just a blank Simple Text icon.
The wallpaper I got from Zedge and modified, you can get it here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8864209/2012-12-02%2023.01.27.jpg

Obviously, I like a lot of customization. Here's what I'm using, in order from left to right, top to bottom:
Launcher: beanstown106's 5x4 custom stock launcher: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2026233
SystemPanel end all tasks widget
AudioManager small widget (minimal transparent white skin)
Temp+CPU V2 widget
Extended Controls widget
Beautiful Widgets smaller home widget (curved-blue-contrast clock skin + SkullGray weather skin)
- I chose that skin because of the font it uses, transparency is at full so none of the blue shows up.
Pure Calendar widget (transparent skin, all text colors set to white)
Launch-X Pro (Minimalist white icon pack, manual icon selections for apps with no matching icon)
Desktop Visualizer (Used to create the shortcuts with custom icons and text for the phone/gmail/sms/browser buttons in the stock launcher, also using the Minimalist white skin)
Not visible but I'm also using Home2 Shortcut to restore double pressing home to open an app (I use it to open gmail)
my lame home screen lol

I'll edit my original post with everything I'm using. Takes 5 minutes between posting/editing and I need time to write it all down, haha.
Here's my setup:

It's called One More Clock in the Play Store. Comes with a few other options as well.

How's the battery drain while using it? A lot of people are reporting noticeable battery drain.

I haven't actually noticed any. I'm still getting about 4-5 hours screen-on time with awesome performance.

Thx. I usually take those comments with a grain of salt anyways. People tend to install "cool new apps" and then tend to play with them a lot and wonder why their battery life isn't the same

Hello. I am running the stock T-mobile 4.3 Rom and I am wanting to be able to see the time that my alarm is set for to show up on my lock screen. Is there any way to add this feature? Thanks.

Mine does that. I think it only shows if your phone is locked with some sort of security. I have the pattern lock enabled on mine and it shows that as well as the battery percentage as it's charging.

Do you mean alarms, or the upcoming appointments from the calendar? The appointments will show up if the "Productivity" lock screen is selected. I personally never use the alarm function - I set all my alarms via reminders in the calendar.
Yea I mean the alarm. I have some daily alarms set and it would be nice to see the next alarm time on the lockscreen.

I have upgraded from a Nexus 4 to a S5.My home screen has the default weather app, which takes up half the screen almost!
Do you keep the default weather app that comes with the S5 or do you recommend something else?
Also, any recommendations on what to use for an alarm clock? I used the default alarm clock on my Nexus 4 before.
Thanks,
Jon

The original weather widget can be made transparent at 100%. I'm using the default alarm clock and I'm completely satisfied with.

Check out this thread for the mod weather: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2766014
I always debate this myself. You can make the widget transparent is settings, but I also like the background changing with the weather.
I'm currently using Nova launcher so I have no choice, but Beautiful Widgets has excellent options. I'll go back to TouchWiz launcher eventually, just feels like Nova is missing something that stock offers. Can't put a finger on it tho
