Thanks for publishing this as a temporary solution. I missed this thread and didn’t know the patch wasn’t working until I updated my phone to v5 last month. I’m going to release my updated version on open repos with landscape support and an extra option to move the clock around.
This patch works well but conflicts with the launcher combined patch so that launcher no longer works. I tried deactivating and reactivating and when that didn’t work I just removed the calendar event patch. Maybe with some experimenting they could work together.
