Turn your Nspire into a real clock!

I really wish I had a nspire, all I have is a lousy 84+

How does this work? I take it this is not using the RTC, since boot1/boot2 always reset it as far as I know and Ndless cannot prevent that. 900Cxxxx timers + spare SRAM?

Two things :
- the RTC value is not reseted when the calc crashed (and still continue working even on the booting time). It resets only when you use the reset button.
- nClock just stores the last saved RTC value and ask if the time is correct on boot. But most of the time, since the RTC is not reseted, it is useless

Nice!
Does it work with classic Nspires?

At first, the hook worked only on CX's an I was sad enought to leave the project ...
But by reverse engineering the hook I found that classic Nspire and CX Nspire use differents Battery checkers and my hook as actually in the battery check branch of CX.
Now I use differents hooks for classics and cx Nspire. Since I don't have them with me, I can't test if it works, but they actually work on emulator so I guess so =)
