Why Does Using Cydia Have To Suck So Much?

February 7, 2010

As I’ve mentioned before, I have great respect for Saurik, who runs Cydia, for his huge and positive contributions to the iPhone jailbreak community.  I’m sure running Cydia is no easy task, but on days like today I really just wonder does using Cydia really have to suck so much.
Cydia is, rightly, considered to [...]

Cydia Wish List: Consistent App Detail Pages

January 7, 2010

    
I always feel more than a little bad about making criticisms of Cydia – because I recognize that Saurik (its creator) is one of the giants of the jailbreak arena, a guy who’s done as much for the jailbreak community as just about anyone.
And Cydia is very much the leading jailbreak app store, [...]

QuickLook: LockInfo for iPhone (Cydia – Jailbreak)

December 29, 2009

Some time ago LockInfo went out of beta  and now it’s been released in Cydia as a stable app. I tried it early this year and was amused by the power of the app, so I decided to give this release a try to see how it works now.

Overboard for iPhone updated to 1.1.2 – can now become your home screen!

December 26, 2009

Ryan Petrich has been pretty busy. No, I haven’t been stalking him — Cydia told me.
I was checking for updates on Christmas day and saw not one, but two great updates. The first one was the Pro Switcher 1.0 release, which Patrick detailed HERE. The other one was an update to Overboard (basically iPhone Exposé) [...]

Jailbreak App Adds Support for Bluetooth Keyboards for iPhones

December 22, 2009

 
iPhone OS 3.0 is supposed to open up an exciting new level of integration between iPhone software and hardware accessories – but so far I don’t recall seeing that many thrilling examples of this.  As is so often the case though, we can count on a jailbreak app to establish another first – in [...]

Quick Look and How To: Cydget, jailbreak widgets on your iPhone lockscreen

December 10, 2009

I’m actually not sure when Cydget was released, but most reports I’ve seen online are from about two weeks ago. The free framework was developed by Saurik, the guy behind that jailbreak App Store you might have heard of (Cydia, I think it’s called). There aren’t all that many cydgets as of yet, but the [...]

December 2, 2009

I’ve spent a fair amount of my free time customizing my iPhone, and even though I’ll feature a theme every now and then, I thought it might be fun to gather and show all of my mods in one particular place. This isn’t a tutorial about how to achieve this look (although I’ve got a [...]

Quick vid look at MusicInfo – displays song info right over the iPhone status bar

November 30, 2009

Here’s another little jailbreak toy I’ve been playing with over the past few days: it shows your music’s artist/album/title info right along the status bar every time a tune plays. I haven’t seen any adverse effects on battery life, but I haven’t been playing with it for that long. I do wish it was a [...]

Why I Don’t Have More Jailbreak Apps

November 16, 2009

One thing that has struck me ever since rejoining the jailbreak ranks is how few apps seem to be coming out in any given day or week, basically how slow the trickle of apps is for the jailbreak arena. 
This has been especially noticeable to me over the last couple of weeks, when I’ve [...]

New iPhone Ringtone – Final Out Call of Yankees World Series Win

November 6, 2009

Brilliant.  I grew up a Yankees fan (an hour away from the stadium) and still am one – and my new ringtone for the iPhone is the final out call for the New York Yankees World Series win two nights ago.
