Isn’t it funny that Cydia rarely stumbles into the conversation when someone asks what your favorite jailbreak app is?

Saurik graciously included a nice resume feature in his previous update, but that still isn’t the same as having true multitasking. Thankfully, enabling multitasking is about as easy as it gets.

Just a word of warning, this method isn’t endorsed by anyone as far as I know, and in fact, in a previous written tutorial on the subject, it was stated that it could induce problems. With that in mind, proceed at your own risk, and be sure to backup anything of importance before proceeding.
