[APP] Night Stand Clock (626)
Hi,
I wanted to use my PB 626 with its long battery life and eink display as a simple night stand clock and didn't find anything usable. There is Clocky available from http://fedorchenko.net/pb.php and the PocketBook free project website. It displays pretty terribly on my 626 though - half cut off. I've based this on the clock sample code from the SDK 1.1, which did not start on my device due to missing resources in the current FW. I rewrote it to just use system fonts, display well and support all orientations. I intend to improve upon it and make it more modifiable and add an analog clock. (Currently it will probably work well only with XGA (1024x768) screen devices, others will I believe break the text. I'll make it adjust properly when I get the time.) So here it is, enjoy. Installation

Seems to work well. Quote:
BTW tried it out last night and about 8 hours of acting like a clock (no frontlight) took about 2-3% of the battery, which is quite nice. Last edited by MagNet; 05-20-2015 at 04:37 AM. |

I really like the clock, but unfortunately the screen orientation change via menu button does not work for me, it goes straight to the main menu. (Lux 3 FW 626.5.8.275)
Anyway, thanks a lot, I am really excited for the new version! |
