Last month we showed you a way to fix your iDevice's white app icons after jailbreaking, but did you know that you can perform a similar fix with Springtomize 2?
Since most jailbreakers probably already have Springtomize 2 running on their device's, this is a very convenient method for cleaning up those annoying white app icons that rear their ugly heads post jailbreak.
Check inside for the full how-to...

A few weeks ago we brought you info on how to get the iOS 86 WinterBoard theme for the iPhone.
I think it's safe to say that the reaction to the theme was mixed, but perhaps that may change once you see it in action.
iOS 86 brings you a cell shaded looking theme similar to the classic Dreamcast game Jet Set Radio. Be sure to check out our previous coverage on iOS 86 if you're interested in trying it yourself.
They say the simple things in life are some of the best things in life. They also say the best things in life are free.
IconRotator is both.
It's been a while since we've seen a simple tweak that was this cool, but then again it was created by developer extraordinaire Ryan Petrich — I guess we shouldn't be too surprised...

Did you know that Siri is a jailbreaking expert? It's true, just have a look at this video.
Okay, so obviously there's more than meets the eye here. Siri is using AssistantExtensions, a jailbreak tweak that allows you to input various bits of knowledge into her "brain". Think Neo's "I know kung fu" quote from the Matrix for an idea of what it's like.
If you haven't read our post on AssistantExtensions we urge you to do so. It, along with the Jailbreak FAQ Add-on can be downloaded for free from Cydia's BigBoss repo.
Earlier today we brought you a report on AssistantLove — the new jailbreak tweak that allows you to play Spotify songs via Siri.
The tweak also has the ability to search and get directions and routes for 3rd party GPS apps, but unfortunately I wasn't able to get that working in my initial demo.
Now, with the help of the excellent free GPS app Waze, I can demo the integrated GPS navigation using Siri. I'm happy to report that it performs just as expected...
If you're one of those people that knows what U+F8FF means, or what Option+Shift+K does, then this post is for you. For those of you who aren't aware, U+F8FF is the Unicode address for the Apple logo (on Apple devices) that you see on a lot of Twitter profiles, etc.
PictoKeyboard is a new tweak that allows you to have a Unicode keyboard on your iDevice, making it easy to access your favorite symbols on the small screen...
Do you rarely find yourself using iOS 5's Lock screen camera shortcut? If so, you may be interested in this handy tweak that maps the camera button on your Lock screen to Siri.
It's called LockAssistant, and instead of invoking your camera when tapping the shortcut on your Lock screen, your helpful assistant will be at your beck and call...
I can't be the only one that thinks it's weird that Apple's still using those focus stealing low battery alerts, can I? I mean, doesn't it seem like Apple would have preferred to use iOS 5's new banner notifications instead?
Well, apparently I'm not the only one who feels that way, because a new tweak has been released in Cydia named LowPowerBanner, and it does just that...
If you know me, you know I've been waiting on a way to integrate Spotify with Siri's voice search for a long time.
I'm happy to say that it's finally here. AssistantLove can launch your favorite songs on Spotify via Siri, theoretically giving you a seemingly infinite library of songs right at the command of your voice.
Not only that, but AssistantLove features GPS app integration with TomTom, Navigon, and other popular GPS apps, and that's not all...
Wouldn't that be great if you could be notified of jailbreak tweaks updates without having to launch Cydia and waiting forever for it to refresh sources and reload data? Your dream might soon come to reality with CydiaBulletin, an upcoming tweak by Ryan Petrich that we already previewed last month.
Petrich teases us once again today with a screenshot of CydiaBulletin for iPad...
If you're a big traveller, then would it not be convenient to have world clock access in Notification Center?
With a new jailbreak tweak aptly entitled WorldClockCenter, now you can.
WorldClockCenter takes all of the world clocks you have configured inside the stock Clock app, and places them in Notification Center, along with a few extra configurable options. Check out our brief video walkthrough inside...
Afraid a thief might try to snag your iPhone while out an about? Well, don't look for Anti-Theft to help you. By the time you hear the alarm sounded by this jailbreak tweak, any such thief will be long gone.
Anti-Theft can, however, assist you in a small classroom or work environment. Maybe. Okay who are we kidding? If you're relying on a tweak like this to keep your iPhone secure, it's probably already gone by now.
