Colorful iPhones could once again become the norm

It looks like iPhones are about to get more colorful, again. A new report says there could be five color choices for the upcoming 6.1-inch LCD iPhone X style device and three colors for the 6.5-inch OLED "iPhone X Plus."  This news comes from influential Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo and was first published by 9to5Mac. 

Electra Team: iOS 11.2-11.3.1 jailbreak tool “will be dropping within a few days”

Good news on Wednesday for those who’ve been eagerly awaiting a jailbreak for iOS 11.3.1: the Electra Team announced that their upcoming jailbreak tool would be released in coming days.

While the Electra Team works hard to produce a working jailbreak tool for iOS 11.3.1 amid unexpected delays, team member CoolStar took to Twitter on Monday to announce a rather attention-grabbing update.

As it would seem, Electra 11.3.1 will incorporate a feature called “Project Repo Unclutter” that automatically filters incompatible jailbreak tweaks from appearing in Cydia’s default repositories (BigBoss, ModMyi, and ZodTTD).

TintIconLabels lets you colorize your Home screen’s app icon labels

Apple designed the Home screen’s icon labels to be legible against most wallpapers out of the box, but some exceptions exist, especially when using third-party alternatives to the stock offerings. In other situations, users simply want something more expressive than just plain-Jane black or white.

Whatever the case may be, a new free jailbreak tweak called TintIconLabels by iOS developer CydiaGeek is here to help. Just as the name implies, TintIconLabels lets you adjust the appearance of your application icon labels.
