It has nothing to do with the movie.
Now that that's out of the way, let me tell you about Friday13, a recently released jailbreak tweak for the iPhone.
Friday13 is a way to alter the iCal icon on your iPhone's Home screen, nothing more, nothing less. You'll find various color combinations, custom date listings, etc.
If you're growing weary of that boring old red and white iCal icon on your Home screen, then the following video walkthrough is catered towards you...
Jailbreaking your iDevice has many benefits. One benefit is the ability to customize and make it your own by changing your lockscreen.
Jailbreak tweaks, such as Winterboard and Dreamboard, break free from these restrictions, and as such, these avenues of customization have spawned an underground community dedicated to providing beautiful, awe-inspiring themes and modifications for your iDevice.
One such example is Cardboard Cutout HD, created by tadad1. As the title of the theme suggests, the lockscreen is given a beautiful cardboard appearance...
Jailbreaking your iDevice gives you the ability to customize it from head to toe. You can change the complete look and feel of the device by editing icons and installing extensions. Another area you can personalize through jailbreaking is the boot screen.
The default boot logo is of course the infamous Apple logo, but with a little tweaking you can change it to virtually whatever you want. In some of the more recent jailbreaks though, the ability to customize the boot logo was compromised...
DreamBoard, the popular iPhone theme solution, has gone free on Cydia after previously selling for $2.99. Dreamboard is a popular Winterboard alternative that can mimic the looks of Android, Windows 7 etc.
Dreamboard works differently than Winterboard, because it doesn't require you to respring each time you switch themes, and it can achieve deep UI customizations without having to install other jailbreak applications...
In the shadow of intuitive notification systems from Palm and other competitors, the iOS push notification system is certainly lacking. Luckily there are some great utilities for us jailbroken folks to change the look and feel of your iOS notifications.
Although tweaks like MobileNotifier look promising, they don't seem quite reliable yet to handle the daily grind. But don't worry, there's still hope to bring a revamped notification system to your current device...
All this talk about the white iPhone 4 might have gotten you a little desensitized about it, no? Besides, why would you want a white iPhone 4 when you can have an even rarer deep blue iPhone 4?
As you probably have guessed by now, this is not an official color offered by Apple, but a conversion kit straight out of China. Not only this kit is original, I think it's gorgeous as well, but it obviously depends on your tastes...
The anticipated jailbreak tweak to rule them all, Springtomize, has gone live in Cydia and is now available for purchase. We showed you a detailed preview of this awesome tweak several days ago, and now you can install Springtomize and play with it yourself.
Most jailbreak tweaks focus on one specific aspect of iOS (whether it be the status bar, dock, icons, etc.). Springtomize aims at being the one-stop shop for your tweaking needs. As far as customization is concerned, Springtomize may very well be the king of jailbreak tweaks.
Okay Mr. Bigarella, you've outdone yourself this time. That's the only phrase that popped into my head upon installing Springtomize and discerning how gaudy his latest jailbreak tweak is.
There's simply no better description for Springtomize -- a jailbreak tweak that takes about 50 other jailbreak tweaks, and rolls them all into one.
In fact, there are so many options here, that it could prove to be a bit overwhelming for those just looking to add slight customizations to their iPhones.
But that's not who Springtomize is aimed at. It's aimed at those who want absolute 100% control over the look and feel of their iPhone; it does a pretty good job of doing so too...
When it was released a little over a week ago, the GreenPois0n jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 came with a nice surprise: animated boot logos. We already saw how to add an animated boot logo to your iPhone, and today, we're going to see how to remove this custom logo.
This is a fairly easy process which will require about a minute of your time, depending on how fast Cydia loads for you at the moment...
The latest release of the GreenPois0n jailbreak for iPhone 4.2.1 comes with a nice little surprise: you can now add animated boot logos to your iPhone. We already showed you how to do this manually, today we're going to show you how to do this directly from Cydia.
In order to do that, you'll obviously need a jailbroken iPhone on iOS 4.2.1, either using GreenPois0n (see our tutorial), or the tethered version of RedSn0w. You will not be able to install animated boot logos unless you are on 4.2.1 jailbroken iPhone with GreenPois0n or RedSn0w tethered...
Here is a jailbreak app that will sure make iPhone themers happy. Masks, a new application that lets you quickly and easily customize the look of your wallpaper and icons.
Up until now, the best way to customize your springboard was by using WinterBoard. While a great application, WinterBoard can be a bit cumbersome: you have to search for a theme, download it, activate it in WinterBoard, and respring. Masks takes all that away by bringing to the table a new way to tweak your iPhone springboard...
A few days ago, we reported about the "big surprise" that was going to be included in the latest release of GreenPois0n: custom animated boot logos. Now that GreenPois0n is out, you can fairly easily add a boot logo.
All you need is a jailbroken iPhone, basic SSH knowledge, and about 5 minutes of your time. Without further ado, here are instructions on how to add an animated boot logo to your iPhone...
