• CENTER CLOCK

first open status_bar.xml using notepad++ and look for this line

delete the whole line

then find this line

 xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

then paste this line

link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/95707632/aw.txt

so it should look like this (the one with the red mark at top)

ss: http://prntscr.com/1fhj2f

to adjust the font size of the clock, edit the number in this line

android:textSize="15.5sp"

NOTE: After centering clock you need to change the background of the media scanning to avoid overlapping with the clock

 Open status_bar.xml and find the line zzz7

ss: http://prntscr.com/1f4mmj

edit android:background="blah blah" to android:background="#ff000000" this hex code will make the bg black or you can make your own bg by making it android:background="@drawable/name_of_png" then add the png in SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-ldpi

• LEFT CLOCK

download the link below then copy the line inside
