LiveClock, a tweak by Ryan Petrich that modifies the iOS clock icon to display the current time, has been updated to work with iOS 5.x.

Spent an hour dusting off LiveClock to work on iOS5.1 -- it's up at the usual repo.

You can download LiveClock free from the http://rpetri.ch/repo Cydia Repository but first check it out in the JailbreakNation video posted below...

It is a very old one, i used to have it on my first iPhone before the 3G. It used to be a very good tweak and with no effect on the battery (not to be mentioned.) Why bringing it up now? Because of the 5.0 support?

I always thought of this, but this doesn't even work on my iPhone 4 (keeps crashing) then tried it on my iPad, I figured out there was no point of it cuz iPad's don't have a clock app LoL

If Live Clock is crashing springboard then you downloaded the old app from Cydia. You must get this beta app from the repository per the instructions. Real value? maybe not. Fun to show your jailed friends? Absolutely!

This tweak made my iphone go to safe mode, I had to remove it to re-establish normal mode. Plus like Ben said, moving hands will consume battery, no doubt about it. Who cares about animated hands?

I wonder how this effects your battery on the iPhone?
