If you're a jailbreaker, then you realize how important OpenSSH is to the jailbreak community and you likely use it often.
But if you're new to the world of jailbreaking, you might not see the benefit right off hand.
This video tutorial not only shows you how to install OpenSSH onto your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but why it's beneficial as well...
IntelliScreenX, the highly anticipated iOS 5 jailbreak app, is coming right along in its development, and the latest build features some exciting new features.
To capitalize on Apple's lack of any sort of quick reply or quick compose for messages, Intelliborn has baked their Messages+ app in directly with IntelliScreenX for a very robust messaging solution.
Now you can quick reply, and/or quick compose from Notification Center, the Lock screen, and from banner message notifications. Check out the full video demonstration inside...
Not five minutes after we posted the plist hack method for enabling panorama mode in iOS 5, the promised jailbreak tweak that does the same thing hit Cydia.
The tweak is titled 'Firebreak' in reference to the plist value, and it's much simpler to use than editing a plist value via iFile.
If you want to use iOS 5's hidden panoramic camera, then this is the definitive way to enable it...
We've created an easy-to-follow video tutorial that shows you how to add the hidden panorama mode to iOS 5's Camera app.
You will need a jailbroken iOS 5 device in order to do it, and you will also need iFile if you want to follow this specific tutorial.
If you meet those prerequisites, step inside to see how to enable panorama mode on iOS 5...
In theory, a jailbreak tweak like TweetBoard sounds great. Viewing all of your Twitter information from the comforts of your Lock screen is one of the reasons that IntelliScreen X is so highly anticipated.
But the problem with TweetBoard is that it's half-baked. As it turns out, you can't actually view your timeline from your Lock screen at all, only your particular tweets.
Inside we take a look at this promising, but ultimately disappointing jailbreak tweak for iOS 5...
AndroidLock XT has been out for a very long time, but for some strange reason I never got around to trying it. Recently, an Ice Cream Sandwich aka Android 4.0 theme was released for AndroidLock XT, so I was compelled to give it a go.
Check inside for a hands-on demonstration of AndroidLock XT, along with the new theme that makes your iPhone's Lock screen look and feel like Ice Cream Sandwich...
Once iOS 5 was officially released to the public, it was like a flood of Notification Center jailbreak tweaks hit Cydia all at once. It was so much at one time that it was hard to wade through it all.
Now that the flood has finally turned into a manageable stream, we figured it was the appropriate time to highlight some of our favorite Notification Center jailbreak widgets yet...
WebOffline is a jailbreak tweak that allows you to save entire web pages for offline viewing in Safari. It's tightly integrated with Apple's stock iPhone browser, and makes offline reading fairly effortless.
While there are other 3rd-party offline browsing solutions available, if you're looking for the most native implementation you can come by, WebOffline may be worth a look...
It's no secret that I'm pretty pumped about Amazon's Kindle Fire. While I know that may seem disgraceful to say on iDownloadBlog, I have to admit that the Fire looks sort of compelling.
The Kindle Fire is obviously no match for the iPad, but it isn't trying to compete with the iPad — that's why I think it'll succeed. Now that the formalities are out of the way, let's talk about Kindle Fire for iPhone — a DreamBoard theme that make your iPhone look similar to Amazon's upcoming foray into the world of tablets...
Wouldn't it be awesome if you could forward all of your iPhone's push notifications to your Mac or PC? Well now you can, if your iDevice is jailbroken.

Wouldn't it be cool if you could invoke Siri without pressing and holding your Home button?
I've always thought that Apple should include such an option for when we're on the road and want to control our devices with Siri.
That's the concept behind a new jailbreak tweak entitled Hands-Free Control. Once the iPhone 4S jailbreak is made public, it will allow you to invoke Siri by voice alone.
In the meantime, though, you can invoke Voice Control on pre-iPhone 4S devices...
A little over a month ago, Amazon jumped head-first into the tablet market with its 7-inch Kindle Fire. The $199 slate runs a low-level version of Android, but you'd never know that from its well thought-out user interface.
In fact, Amazon's tablet has already received a fair amount of praise. It's sharp, eye-popping, and gives users quick access to media content. And even better, it's coming to the iPhone with this jailbreak theme...
