When you install the WeatherIcon app in Cydia (be sure you install version 1.1.1 or newer), it adds an option to your WinterBoard titled Weather Icon. When you select the Weather Icon option in WinterBoard, it will activate the application. When the app is activated, it changes your stock weather icon to a blank weather icon and then puts the new temp and weather image on top of the blank weather icon.












1. Find the file Library/Themes/WeatherIcon.theme/Bundles/com.apple.springboard/com.ashman. WeatherIcon.plist on your iPhone or iPod Touch.

2. Open the com.ashman.WeatherIcon.plist file. Below is what it will look like.

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Celsius</key>
<false/>
<key>Location</key>
<string>20852</string>
</dict>
</plist>

3. Change the number 20852 to whatever your current zip code is. Below is an example of what it would look like changed.

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Celsius</key>
<false/>
<key>Location</key>
<string>50023</string>
</dict>
</plist>

4. Close the file…it should ask you if you would like to save the change…yes, you want to save the changes.

5. Respring your springboard and you will have the current temp for your zip code on your weather icon.

WeatherIcon is available for free on Cydia.
