If you’ve been involved in the jailbreak scene for any period of time and happen to be a fan of old school video gaming, then you might’ve heard of gpSPhone Game Boy Emulator for iPhone. The package is something that has been worked on extensively over the last few years, with the hard work being put into the project by ZodTTD and his team continuing to amaze us. The gpSPhone freight train doesn't show any signs of slowing down at the moment, with the app recently being updated to v8.0.1, and is now available to download and try directly from the ZodTTD custom repository.
One of the latest tweaks to land on the ModMyi repo is the FBPrivacy package, which, as the name suggests, is one developer's attempt to bring additional privacy measures to those jailbroken users who regularly make use of the Facebook or Facebook Messenger apps. The tweak won’t bring the stealth-like experience to Facebook that a lot of users genuinely want, but it does bring some nice little touches to the official apps that may just serve to improve things a little.
Rumors pertaining to the fifth-gen iPad have begun heating up over the past few weeks, and the consensus seems to be that the device will take on a similar form factor to that of the iPad mini. Today, a photo purported to illustrate the interior of the rear shell of the "iPad 5" has been released by Tactus, the same company that offered the world a glimpse into the shell of the supposed low-cost iPhone. From the image, it would appear as though the various contours and grooves tie in with earlier such leaks, and although we're reserving full judgment until we encounter some more substantial evidence, it's looking very much like we should begin bracing ourselves for a "large iPad mini." Apart from the alleged iPad 5 exterior shell, a SIM tray has also popped up which is claimed to be of the next-gen iPhone, dubbed the iPhone 5S. More details right after the jump.
The FakeMyi package is one of the most comprehensive jailbreak tweaks we’ve seen, and allows users to fake, change and add new information to specific aspects of the device. We've seen tweaks in the past that allow call logs to be altered or certain information to be changed at the user's will, but FakeMyi takes things a little further by integrating itself into the Messages, Phone and GPS functionality of the installed device.
Google has proven in the past that the search giant is not shy about releasing its apps on iOS. The company fought long and hard to get some of its apps onto its perceived competitor's devices, but with Google's business model relying on everyone using the internet as much as possible, it's little wonder that it simply wants to make that as easy, and as enjoyable as possible.
As if the iPhone wasn't already an expensive enough gadget to behold, one luxury goods company has decided to take things to the next level by customizing the handset with a multitude of gems and diamonds. In doing so, the Liverpool, England-based company Stuart Hughes has increased the value astronomically, creating a very uniquely crafted iPhone worth an eye-watering $15 million.
Instagram is without a doubt something of a runaway success, and it managed that even before the famous buyout by social network, Facebook. A combination of smart filters and a social aspect, Instagram had us all taking arty photos of our food, cats and just about anything else. We love Instagram, and judging by our feeds, you probably do too.
The introduction of Siri along with the iPhone 4S caused a few people to think that voice based commands were going to become the next accepted method of interaction with our mobile devices. Conversely, a number of users simply couldn't see the merit or value in having to ask questions to find out things like the local weather or what the time is in other countries. Regardless of personal opinion, it looks like Siri is definitely with us in the long-run with iOS, which is why it's great to see tweaks like Ask Assistant landing on the Cydia store that make using Siri that little bit easier.
If you've always liked the idea of creating your own melodic mixes but haven't had the time, means, inclination or skill to do so, you may wish to check out a great little app for iOS by the name of Crossfader.
