Review: QuickReply for iPhone (jailbreak only)

March 16, 2010

[v1.5 -- Jailbreak only]
QuickReply from Ghaurav Khanna is just that: a quick and simple solution for those times that you receive an important text in the middle of something equally important (say, a round of Tilt to Live).

Seven jailbreak methods for organizing your iPhone apps

March 13, 2010

One of the best reasons to jailbreak has to be because the default Springboard just sucks at organizing hundreds of applications. I’d say there are seven major ways to organize your home screens using 3rd party applications: some can require extensive set-up, but some are as easy as installing and playing.

BigBoss helps jailbreakers pretend to upgrade to iPhone 3.1.3

March 10, 2010

[Update: Reader Quycky asked about settings and syncing issues, and although I can still sync and am still functioning at full speed on the 3GS, I am unable to sync 3.1.3 apps to iTunes. I can install them through the iPhone App Store, but they simply won't sync to iTunes on my Mac. I see [...]

February 8, 2010

Patrick recently wrote a piece on how slow and painful using Cydia can be, so I thought I’d offer a little bit of information on the other major jailbreak app portal, Rock Your Phone. In my experience Cydia is still the top dog in terms of new app releases and popularity, but Rock has been [...]

Activator: a free and extremely powerful jailbreak app launcher for iPhone [Jailbreak Apps]

February 1, 2010

The power of Ryan Petrich’s Activator (free on Cydia) dawned on me only this weekend. Activator is used in the excellent Overboard and ProSwitcher apps to launch them with gestures, status bar taps, and hardware button presses. I had heard that these options should soon be applicable to BigBoss’s SBSettings panel, but that hasn’t happened [...]

February 1, 2010

It’s a little early for spring cleaning but, hey, I was running out of space. I did a hard reset over the weekend and completely wiped out all of my previous settings and all of the local data because I was convinced that something had gone wrong during on of my iTunes syncs. The “other” [...]

January 25, 2010

Pro Switcher 1.1 is now available for download on Cydia and Rock, and the change log says something about numerous bug fixes, returning options, and some other good stuff. Truth be told, I haven’t experienced any Pro Switcher bugs, and I use the app every single day. I haven’t noticed any updated or improved settings [...]

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) [...]
