LiveClock

In LiveClock it says there is now Theme Support and Dark theme is included. What exactly does Theme Support do and is Dark Theme just literally another theme?
Only reason I don't feel like downloading this and deleting LiveTime is because I don't want to waste more memory on all these different things.

Dark them is a black clock with black face, if you dont have the theme enabled then the clock looks the same as stock, but is the actual time. i have it and love it. same with live weather icon. super cool.

If what you have now does this already and you dont care about a dark face, then dont download it i guess

Any thoughts on battery usage?

This is an awesome app! I had widgets for a month calendar and week weather previously installed on my home screen, but the two processes killed the iphone's responsiveness. I haven't noticed a hit to performance using LiveClock.

Just create a transparent icon and name it LiveClock.png and replace the one that is in your LiveClock theme. Should do the trick.

Here it is, badmannie...You cant see it, but if you right click the left of the Attached Images window and save it, youll have it. Good luck. Hope this is what you were looking for.

To make LiveClock look more like the stock Clock app icon, replace the contents of /System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/LiveClock.plist with the code below (make sure to backup it first!). If you are lazy, you may instead download the attached file and remove the .txt extension, then put it in place.

Code:

&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
&lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"&gt;
&lt;plist version="1.0"&gt;
&lt;dict&gt;
	&lt;key&gt;enabled&lt;/key&gt;
	&lt;true/&gt;
	&lt;key&gt;update-interval&lt;/key&gt;
	&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
	&lt;key&gt;layout&lt;/key&gt;
	&lt;array&gt;
		&lt;dict&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;type&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;hand&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;source&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;hour&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;color&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;origin&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;28.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;28.5&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;points&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-12&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;2.6&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;0&lt;/integer&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-2.6&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;0&lt;/integer&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
		&lt;/dict&gt;
		&lt;dict&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;type&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;hand&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;source&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;minute&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;color&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;origin&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;28.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;28.5&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;points&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-17&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;2.6&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;0&lt;/integer&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-2.6&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
		&lt;/dict&gt;
		&lt;dict&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;type&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;ellipse&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;color&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0.25&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0.25&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0.25&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;rect&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;25.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;25.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;6&lt;/integer&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;6&lt;/integer&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
		&lt;/dict&gt;
		&lt;dict&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;type&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;ellipse&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;color&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;1&lt;/integer&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;1&lt;/integer&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;1&lt;/integer&gt;
				&lt;integer&gt;1&lt;/integer&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;rect&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;26.38&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;26.38&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;4.25&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;4.25&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
		&lt;/dict&gt;
		&lt;dict&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;type&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;ellipse&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;color&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;rect&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;27.25&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;27.25&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;2.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;2.5&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
		&lt;/dict&gt;
		&lt;dict&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;type&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;hand&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;source&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;string&gt;second&lt;/string&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;color&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;1&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;origin&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;28.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;28.5&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
			&lt;key&gt;points&lt;/key&gt;
			&lt;array&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-0.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-22&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-22&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;-0.5&lt;/real&gt;
				&lt;real&gt;0&lt;/real&gt;
			&lt;/array&gt;
		&lt;/dict&gt;
	&lt;/array&gt;
&lt;/dict&gt;
&lt;/plist&gt;

This .plist makes the axes of the hour and minute hands hollow rings, and the second hand's axis rotates free inside. For reference, check the Clock icon here. I know this mod is not quite there yet, but I think I'm close.

What do you think?

(Please note that I can take no responsibility if your beloved iPhone/iPod doesn't like the mod; I can, however, assure it works for me.)
