Jay Freeman aka saurik aka the guy behind Cydia recently gave a rather interesting TED talk at TEDxAmericanRiviera where he talked about Apple’s “closed” App Store vs. the relatively open Cydia store.
While we recently covered a jailbreak app called Private Area that did the same thing, it simply pales in comparison to the one this post is about: iDiscrete.
Although iOS alerts you when the device’s battery drops below 20%, you might want to change that to something higher or lower depending on your preference and you can do that with PowerAlerter.
Probably the most easiest way to install Android on an iPhone 2G/3G is via iPhoDroid, which we did cover previously. But the problem with it is; you should have a computer to run the whole process of installing Android on your iPhone 2G/3G. But thanks to Bootlace 2.1, you can now install Android 2.2.1 Froyo on your jailbroken iPhone without needing to connect it to any PC or Mac!
Have you ever wanted Android-like panoramic wallpaper scrolling when you switch homescreens on your iPhone or iPod touch? Well, now you can with a tweak for jailbroken iPhones / iPod touches called Parallax.
Remember the HTC myTouch 3G with the near-perfect Chinese iOS 4 clone that we posted back in mid-September? That thing has a brother now: and it’s a Samsung Galaxy S-“branded” smartphone that seems to be running on the same software.
Users of one brand of smartphone form a distinct camp with respect to their ideologies, beliefs, user habits and of course, how they perceive people from other such smartphone camps.
There is a new jailbreak tweak available on Cydia which allows you to enable or disable iOS 4.x features without having to go though the pain of SSH’ing your device.
Just a few days ago, we posted a detailed step-by-step guide on how to enable HD video recording on iPhone 3GS. The entire process was - let’s just say - rather tedious. And I say tedious only because enabling HD video on 3GS now is as simple as installing a tweak.
Google Instant - the real-time search engine that gives you results before you even complete typing - is rolling out to iOS devices.
