Phone just downloaded 7.0 15 this morning. Looks like a lot of things changed for no reason at all.

Clock on the lock screen is now that insipid hours over minutes that Apple has been using for some time. This is extremely annoying.

How do I change to the old HH:MM display? All the help files I can find have incorrect information!

Thanks for any help.

thank you.  why is the hours over minutes the default clock ? bad.  also why is the screen lock timer set for 30 seconds in default ? it makes setting up a new android the first time a real headache, in addition to the normal headache of all the long list of stuff to do.  after 15 years of i-phones, it is bad.  now i will go learn how to get my voice messages i guess.  THANK YOU. THIS WORKS.
