Thanks. I’ve been watching some vids on youtube and there are some really sick tweaks.

Here is another question, What is the best gps app? Google maps is pretty shitty.
I love my jailbreak. I have 5 icons across in each page so they are smaller and 5 in the bottom dock. Allows me to keep all my useful ones on one page. Also, some theme tweaks and little annoyances like keeping recent apps out of the multitask bar so it only shows stuff that is running. Some other ones are Copic which allows you to show contact photos in the messages list and in your contact list. Springtomize does the icon tweaks and also allows you to hide certain status bar icons you dont like.
The themes and other stuff can make your phone unstable but its up to you to determine how much you want to mess with and how stable you want your phone.
Having a hard time figuring this out, my friend recently got an Iphone 3gs on iOS 5.0.1 and wanted me to jailbreak it so he can use his T-mobile sim.
Phone has the 05.16.05 baseband and is also has a post xx135 build date so I can’t switch to the ipad BB. I downgraded to iOS 4.1 but the phone still retains the 05.16.05 BB.
AFAIK, there isn’t any other way to unlock this phone?
Thanks.
I downloaded Tom Tom and used ssh to move it to the phone. There is a tweak which displays speed on google maps which is cool.
+1 on tomtom. Except I just downloaded the IPA and drag/dropped it into itunes and let it sync the app. Works as long as you have appsync installed, which is put down as part of installous automatically.
I’ve never played with the appsync… I probably should.
Picked up the Blaze theme, aptbackup, MIM(Make It Mine) which allows me to change the name of the carrier. Also ICaughtU which is a nifty app that takes he picture of anyone trying to unlock my phone and doesnt know the code. It also emails me their location and time and doesn’t allow them to turn the phone off from the lock screen. Makes find my iPhone an even more useful app if my phone gets stolen.
Last apps from cydia are SBsettings and bitesms. So far my phone is pretty stable. The springboard cashed after I uninstalled intelliscreenX. That app chewed through my battery. no other problems.

I’m fairly certain bitesms is my biggest problem right now, I respring daily because I have to.
I have never had to respring because of bitesms, ever. I have been using it for months upon months with no issues. 90% of the time you have to respring because of an unstable tweak, afaik.
It makes restoring all your jailbroken apps so much easier. Restore in itunes, re-jailbreak, install installous, go back to itunes and hit sync. All your legit apps and all your cracked apps get put back on, organized how you had them in itunes, with just one click.
Lockinfo is the one cydia app I can’t stand not having. I tried intelliscreenx and it’s geared more toward the twitter/facebook crowd. To me neither of those are “notification/lock screen” worthy so I really prefer the layout and customization of lockinfo. 3g unrestrictor is nice, as well as tetherme for very occasional tethering. Mostly though I’ve gone to purchasing my apps legit and only use installous for a couple apps I think are grossly overpriced (tomtom, jaadu rdp).
bitesms was the only jailbroken app at the time and I immediately had problems.
Now I have a theme or 2 running and there is change in stability.
Finally got around to installing the glow mod on my iPhone. Looks sick as hell.
Not my pic but you get the idea.
:tup: to Jeff for hooking me up with my new Iphone. He got me a good deal, even from his death bed! I kiiiiid. Thanks man!
NP, Enjoy the free data plan!
lol
Just got one a few weeks ago. So much > android
Plus it’s nice to not carry 2 devices around, I always had my iPod touch with me. I tried to replace the iPod touch with my Evo, and I couldn’t do it.
Very happy with my purchase
pod2g close to releasing is jailbreak for 5.1.1
Source http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=1173647 They assembled a list of some decent apps too that I didn’t know about. I have been jailbreak free for a long time, think I might take the plunge again.
Is there a way to block numbers on the Iphone? The g.f keeps getting calls and text from someone and its annoying as shit.
she is on GayT&T
^ You’d have to jailbreak it. Lots of number blocking apps in the Cydia store.
Or just be an adult, call the number and explain it’s harassment and will be reported to the authorities if it continues. As long as you’re calm and serious 99% of people are going to knock it off because they’ll know you’ll follow up with the authorities.
ATT should allow you to block a couple numbers, I know VZW does through the website.
