Pinkbot is a WinterBoard theme (we know, bleh) that allows you to alter Tweetbot with various pink UI elements.
If the Pink Panther ever decided to use an iPhone, this would be his Twitter client of choice...
We've seen something like this before, but you can never have too much of a good thing, right?
UsefulIcons is an upcoming jailbreak tweak that promises to add convenient shortcuts to your Home screen.
The various shortcuts cover everything from Voice Control/Siri, to respring and flashlight functionality. It's safe to say that this tweak will yield a varied amount of shortcuts, and you'll find at least some of them to be, well, useful...
Sometimes original ideas are hard to come by, whether you're a jailbreak developer, or an App Store developer.
For that reason I see tons of duplicate apps and tweaks that essentially replicate what has already been available.
With that in mind, even if I don't totally understand the purpose of a specific tweak, I still appreciate one that tries to do something different and original.
This is exactly how I feel about ClipboardEdit. It's a tweak that's certainly original, but I'm not exactly sure how I would use it, or why it would be even be needed...
One of the biggest features of iOS 5.1 is the new Lock screen camera functionality. In fact, we dedicated a post and video exclusively to the new Lock screen camera.
The problem is this; if you're one of the many that wishes to maintain an untethered jailbreak, you can't enjoy the fruits of Apple's labor. This is because the 5.1 update kills your untethered jailbreak.
That's where Camera Grabber for iOS 5 comes into play. This is a jailbreak tweak that allows pre-5.1 devices to enjoy the same Lock screen camera functionality as iOS 5.1 users.

First there was CydiaBulletin, and then there was the dead on arrival Aptdate. These jailbreak tweaks were conceptualized and/or created to provide notifications whenever an app or tweak had a pending updated waiting in Cydia.
Due to traffic concerns, it's unlikely that either of these tweaks will ever see the light of day. That's unfortunate, but it's the reality of the situation unless the developers can come up with a way that won't put too much stress on the repo servers.
But what about the App Store? This sort of functionality would be useful for pending App Store updates as well, would it not? Thankfully, someone was listening.
Check out our video walkthrough of AppUpdateNotifier, a jailbreak tweak that provides banner notifications when updates are waiting in the App Store...

Has your iPhone's signal strength indicator ever lied to you? Perhaps it showed that you had poor cell phone reception, but you were still able to make perfectly clear phone calls. Or vice versa?
Well, if you're losing faith in the 5 little bars that sit in the top left hand corner of your handset, you may want to check out Bars. The new jailbreak tweak promises to give you a more accurate reading of your iPhone's cell service...
I'm absolutely sure that I'm in the minority on my thoughts about iOS' Spotlight feature. I actually find it useful and helpful for launching apps, finding emails, contacts, etc.
Many of you, however, loathe Apple's inclusion of Spotlight; deeming it absolutely worthless, useless, and a waste of time and energy.
For those who fall into the latter category, then maybe this jailbreak tweak will make you happy. It's called WebSpot, and it allows you to completely replace Spotlight with a customizable web interface...
Command+Tab is one of the most useful keyboard shortcuts known to Mac users. It allows you to quickly switch between applications using nothing more than a couple of keys on the keyboard.
CmdTab for the iPhone is a jailbreak tweak that is loosely based on what Mac users have been enjoying forever.
I say loosely based, because it doesn't actually allow you to select your running apps like on the Mac; instead, the developer decided to include a few predefined shortcuts that are accessible via an Activator action.
How does it perform? Take a look inside for the full details on video...
The original TouchPosé tweak left a little to be desired as far as options go, but TouchPosé+ seeks to change that.
TouchPosé+ is essentially the same finger tracking jailbreak tweak with a few more obvious options thrown into the ring. You'll find new features like custom image support, along with the ability to customize the circle's size and color attributes...
