Nairaland Forum

I feel it's time to stop bombarding the "iphone killer apps section" with killer tweaks from cydia( which is d third party Appstore). Let us share the tweaks( which are ios extensions) that makes a jailbroken apple device unique. Apps from d Apple AppStore shd go the d killer apps section.

The first I will like to post is WINTERBOARD. It's d tweak that allows u to theme ur iPhone. It will completely change d look of ur icons.After installing winterboard, u can now start to download themes from cydia.

Winterboard in action. This is suave hd theme.

BARREL is a tweak dat makes d icons move in different 3D motion when scrolling from one page to another.

Vwallpaper.
Lets you use a video as a wallpaper.
SPRINGTOMIZE2(my favorite)
Well, this tweak is simply awsome. I cant explain all it does.
ZEPHYR
This makes multitaking really cool. You dont need the home button. Just swich apps with a swipe forward and backwards like pics
Here is a list of some more
Gridtab
Firebreak
Nowlistening
Ncquickdismiss
Color keyboard
Ikeywi
Sleepfx.

Ever gotten annoyed with being unable to select more than one photo to email and having to send each in a separate email? Install Mail More Photos to attach as many as you like. I also really love PasswordPilot which saves your apple id password securely and you never have to it enter again in appstore. I have a 17-character long password so It's a relief!

I was actually looking for a way to write about one tweak per post but since they are too much,dats out of it.
Ifile- used to browse thru ur data just like a file manager.
Safari upload manager- I ise it to attach pictures to my post on Nairaland directly from safari.
Anyattach- used to attach docs or files to my mails
Quickdo- very powerful tool dat makes u do so many actions without touching  d home/power button. It also allows u to av app shortcuts on d lockscreen.

Okay for tonite. They are all in cydia

Activator, the best of them all, it makes you set shortcut for just anything on your phone.
Callbar, disables incoming calls from interrupting what your doing on your phone,
Scrolling Board

lmao.
The share ur internet with ur pc and to use it as a wifi router, install mywi4 from cydia, its will solve ur problem there
To get paid apps for free, install installous from cydia. U will get almost all paid apps for free.

UnlockFX- get nice effects when unlocking(just like sleepFX)
fakeoperator-change d carrier name to anything u want(can also be done thru springtomize)
iconoclasm-change d layout of ur icons from the default 4*4
backboard-used to change from different springboard settings to another. U can save as many springboard settings as possible
IntelliscreenX- used on ios5 to get ur notification center on the lockscreen. u can also tweet,comment on facebook,and sent sms/imessage directly from the lockscreen without launching the apps(and so much more)
photoalbums+- lets u create new albums in d photo app,also move(not just copy) the pictures from one album to another, very nice.
my3G/3G unrestrictor-makes u do all those things Apple dont want u to do on 3G, like downloading apps above 20mb in appstore, using facetime with ur 3G, etc


okay for now.

For Ipad owner.

RetinaPad: Makes Iphone application to appear in full screen but clearer
Fullforce: Makes the same thing but i prefer RetinaPad for IOS 5
CyDelate: Makes you to delete cydia application without opening cydia

bytafont- used to change the font of the iphone. very nice.
motion- makes ur icons float when on standby as if they are in space, nice effect
ToneFX-allows u to shuffle ur ringtones with as many ringtones as possible(not yet compatible with ios5). everytime u get a call, a different ringtone plays

phoneitipad-for ipad1 only- allows u to make/receive call or sms on d ipad 3G model just like the iphone, no internet required, just ur normal credit.

_{Make I dey learn small small}

Hello,

Just occurred to me that it would be okay to specify if they are IOS 5+ compatible to avoid issues. Just a thought. Thanks!

My tweak for today is xCon that allows you run apps that are blocked if your device is jailbroken like Skype

have u used it with the drifta? is it working?i have it too on my iphone4,jailbroken, it lauches but does not connect, but it connects on d non jailbroken iphone on ios5. I think its d only appstore app i will say cant be used on a jailbroken iphone. Its really annoying(considering d fact that its free), but they will av their reason, unfortunately, the app is not realy used in places like US, where d hackers reside, so no one is really working on d crack. If u want to watch dstv(only 14 channels) on ur apple device, dont jailbreak.

Best Jailbreak iOS 5 Tweaks for iPhone 4S http://shar.es/f1tGq

SBSETTINGS is infact the first tweak any jailbreaker should install from cydia. It's so basic dat many people buy a new iPhone from me and complain that there's no sbsettings, thinking it comes by default.
Sbsettings gives u access to toggle ON/OFF ur 3G,cellular data,airplane,Bluetooth,wifi etc by just swiping ur finger on d status bar.

Try to install half of d tweaks in this link
