Who would dare place a highly configured iPhone into the hands of a 5 year old? You're liable to come back and see half of your apps deleted.
But if you had Undeletable Apps -- A jailbreak tweak for the iPhone -- you'd be able to rest easy knowing that your apps were there to stay.
That's because Undeletable Apps prevents you from deleting your apps, even when in jiggle mode. How does it do this? Check inside for the full lowdown.
Here is an app that shouldn't even exist in the first place as Apple should have implemented it in iOS. ChatPic is a new jailbreak app that will show address book photos next to text messages in the SMS app.
For ChatPic to work, you obviously need to add a photo to your contacts, then whenever they text you, you will see their face next to the chat bubble...
"It's time to go vertical." No, believe it or not, that's not a one-liner from the latest Vin Diesel movie.
Page2D is a jailbreak tweak that removes the horizontal scrolling only limitations placed on the iPhone, and outright encourages vertical scrolling.
But is it any good? Take a look inside as we examine the latest iPhone tweak for the vertically challenged...
If you're serious about customizing your iPhone's sound, there's likely no better candidate to meet your needs than MyVolume.
This is a jailbreak tweak for serious customizers only; casuals need not apply.
That's because MyVolume allows you to modify nearly every function of your iPhone's volume controls, almost to a fanatic level...
Here comes another tweak! Although this tweak has been available for jailbroken iPhones for quite some time now, I seemed to stumble upon it earlier this week and found it pretty cool!
With this tweak you'll be able to use unicode symbols to spice up your social life. How does it work? Simply hold down the 1-5 number keys and you will have access to universally viewable symbols that can be added to your text messages, tweets, and more.
The best part is, unlike emoji which are only viewable on some devices, the unicode symbols in Vmoji will display correctly on any mobile device or computer. The tweak is also free of charge, so that's another thumbs up...
In itself, the iPhone's email works fairly well. It's simple, and reliable. In fact it's almost too simple, being devoid of many customization options that you think would be a no-brainer.
Mail Enhancer is a jailbreak tweak that aims to provide your iPhone's email with some much needed depth in the way of customization.
As you'll see inside, it more than lives up to its name...
Privacy on the iPhone has always been an interesting topic. Especially in the jailbreak scene, security precautions are taken very seriously.
Firewall iP recently received a major update in the Cydia store, and it boasts robust security options for your iPhone's network connections. While its features may seem daunting to those of us that aren't security aficionados, it's nice to see that there's a full-featured security suite for jailbreak users...
If you're not the type to stick around while Cydia updates, then we have a solution for you. A few new additions have appeared recently in Cydia that will allow you to update the cache that Cydia uses without actually running the app.
There are a couple of apps that perform this duty, and both of them run as SBSettings toggles. This makes it pretty easy to update Cydia while you check your email and then quickly load up Cydia to get your updates and new packages.
I have to be honest with you; I never thought I'd ever need a jailbreak tweak like Keep Text New.
SMS Messages aren't exactly like email, where you derive benefits from unread messages; or are they?
I guess there's only one way to find out. Against my better judgment, I went ahead and took the plunge and purchased Keep Text New...
Another day, another reason to jailbreak your iPhone if you haven't already. The latest tweak is called PhoneHint. PhoneHint lets you do a quick contact search right inside the iPhone dialer.
Here's how it works. Simply, swipe left to right over the dialer’s number display to select the right contact, then double tap to select the number. I can see this tweak saving me lots of time, especially when I'm rummaging through my Recent Calls list trying to find the right contact. PhoneHint does not add any new icons to your homescreen and can be configured from the Settings app.
I don't believe there's one feature on the iPhone that angers me as much as auto correct. It's always misinterpreting what I'm trying to type, usually with ridiculous results.
Auto correct on the iPhone will turn a phrase like "Let's go have lunch" into "Keep on step eagle." I know, that makes no sense whatsoever, and that's my point.
Fortunately for us, the jailbreak community has had enough of this utter nonsense as well, as evident by the release of ManualCorrect...
I've always believed that the iPhone's most frustrating issues surrounded around composing long messages or filling out exceptionally long forms. Not only is the auto correct particularly troublesome, but I find myself from time to time typing uppercase letters when I meant to type lowercase, and lowercase letters when I meant to type upper case.
It's a particularly frustrating affair culminated by the fact that Apple has decided to keep uppercase letters on their keyboard's keys regardless of your actual case. That's where a tweak like ShowCase comes in handy...
