by Jeff Benjamin on Nov 26, 2010

I think the majority of people are in agreement that one of the key features that the iPhone has lacked over the years, and continues to lack, is a competent notification system.

TinyUmbrella Updated for iOS 4.2.1 [Do it Now]

by Sebastien on Nov 26, 2010

TinyUmbrella has been updated to allow you to save your SHSH blobs on iOS 4.2.1 for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. If you are a jailbreaker and have 2 minutes to spare, I suggest you use it to save your SHSH blobs.

Without them, you couldn’t downgrade. While most people don’t care, it is especially helpful for jailbreakers… Read More
