Jailbreak Only: LiveClock - A Great Tweak For Your iPhone!

The iPhone Clock app is great: it comes with an alarm feature, a timer feature, and can display various times around the world. I love it, and use it every day.
However, one aspect of Apple's Clock app which isn't perfect, is the icon itself. Sure, it looks nice, but have you ever noticed the time it displays never changes? Wouldn't it be great if the Clock app's icon actually displayed the real time? Thanks to the jailbreak community, there's a tweak for that, and it's called LiveClock.
LiveClock is a free tweak which is available in Cydia. Once installed, this clever tweak will animate your iPhone's Clock app icon, so it displays the correct time. As TIPB notes, implementing the tweak doesn't result in a decrease in battery life. In fact, there seems to be no downside to LiveClock.
LiveClock was recently updated to include support for iOS 4.x-running devices. Like I said: it's free. So, if you have a jailbroken iPhone, be sure to check it out! And, if you do, let us know how LiveClock works for you in the comments below.
