Few weeks ago we reported about a new tweak available in Cydia called Parallax that allows you to use Android style panoramic widescreen wallpapers on your iPhone / iPod touch which scroll horizontally as you move along icon pages. But with a new app called 360 Panorama available on the App Store, you can now take your very own panoramic pictures which can also be used as iPhone wallpapers.
With a new tweak available in Cydia called Fake Operator, you can now rename your operator / carrier and put it as whatever you desire. Similar to the MakeitMine application that was released after the first-ever jailbreak, but with this new tweak you can do so without a dedicated app, oh and it is fully support on the latest iOS 4.2.1 firmware.
ChatPic is a new jailbreak tweak that puts a little photo of your contact beside each incoming chat bubble, a simple mod that gives the Messaging app a little more personality. It takes the photo stored in the Contacts application, and is compatible with Facebook photo sync, which is a utility in the Facebook app itself that downloads your friends photos and matches them to the contacts on your iPhone.
If you own an iPod touch 4G, you would already know that the camera cannot take widescreen 720p photos. With a tweak called HD Photographer available in Cydia, you can now enable widescreen photos using the built-in camera app on the iPod touch 4G. This adds more pixels to the photos you take but at the price of losing the default 4:3 aspect ratio. Technically, this tweak increases the iPod touch 4G’s rear camera from 0.7 megapixels (960×720) to 1.0 megapixels (1280×720).
It was only a few days ago when a proof of concept hack for streaming videos via AirPlay using third party apps was shown on video. This was based on Erica Sadun’s discovery, details on which can be found here.

Barrel is a new tweak available in Cydia, developed by Aaron Ash which adds a 3D “cube” effect to your iPhone’s springboard.

Please note that this works for all devices running iOS 4.x + apart from the iPad or those with SBRotator installed.
Arriving today was the eagerly anticipated iOS 4.2.1 update, along with previously-paid Apple's device tracking, locking, and wiping tool called Find My iPhone.
Device Speed Test is a new app available in Cydia which lets you test the speed and efficiency of your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, whilst also recommending what you should do to improve performance in simple ways.
Thanks to a new tweak available in Cydia, iPhone brightness can now be adjusted from the multitasking tray, found just under the music controls with App Switcher Brightness.
