Looking to make Siri more responsive on older devices like the iPhone 4? Then you may want to give this free jailbreak tweak a go.
QuickSiri allows you to outright bypass Siri opening in the small 1/4 window mode in favor of full screen mode. The developer of the tweak claims that this can make Siri more responsive on older devices.
But does it actually work?
There are already multiple ways to enable iOS 5's Notification Center on your iOS device's Lock screen; IntelliScreenX and Bulletin come to mind.
But what if you wanted a free way to enable Lock screen Notification Center? Then you'd want to try Notiflock...
Whenever I hear of a jailbreak app that somehow alters the iTunes syncing experience, a red flag goes up. I guess it was one bad experience I had when I was new to jailbreaking a few years ago that keeps me on guard whenever anything wants to touch my music.
Needless to say, I downloaded MultiTunes and decided to give it a try anyway. What I found was an awesome tweak that works just as advertised. With MultiTunes, you can sync multiple iTunes libraries on your iPhone with ease...
It's sure to be a battery drainer, but for those looking for sound effects while swiping between screens, Screen Swipe Sounds is an interesting solution.
For $0.99, the developer has provided over a dozen sounds and the ability to enable vibration when swiping between pages on your iDevice.
The only downside (besides the obvious battery issue) is that the sound selection is quite abysmal. Listen in on our hands-on video inside...
The oddly named OpenURL NCWidget is yet another way to go about performing Google searches from Notification Center.
As you may already be aware of, there are already a couple of tweaks in the Cydia store to make searching from Notification Center a reality, but this one adds a few new features not found elsewhere...
Since just about everything else can be launched or accessed from Notification Center, wouldn't it be nice if you could invoke Siri directly from there as well?
With the help of a jailbreak tweak entitled SiriLaunch, now that's possible. SiriLaunch places a little Siri icon shortcut in the bottom left-hand corner of your Notification Center panel for easy access to your personal assistant...
Everyone seems to love my SBSettings theme, hence I get around the neighborhood of 100 inquiries per day asking how to acquire it.
The only problem is, it's not an SBSettings theme at all, it's IntelliScreenX.
WeeRoll is an unreleased jailbreak tweak that lends the ability to add over a dozen animations to iOS 5's Notification Center.
It's very similar to the Flowtation tweak we covered a while back, except that there's a lot more animation options bundled with WeeRoll.
I asked the developer why his tweak had so many animations, and he replied: "That's just how WeeRoll". Okay, I admit that was bad, really bad.
To make up for it, enjoy this special video preview of WeeRoll in action...
Ladies and gentlemen, this is by far the easiest way to get Siri running on your older devices like the iPhone 4, or iPod touch G4, and it requires no proxy server or meticulous setup.
As long as you have a generous friend that's willing to send you a file from their jailbroken iPhone 4S, you can have Siri running on an older device in just a few minutes.
Inside, we'll walk you through how to use AssistantConnect and AssistantConnect4S on video. It's extremely simple, just follow this brief tutorial...
Don't you hate it when it's late at night, and you forget to turn on silent mode before plugging your iPhone in to charge? The audible alert that results seems loud enough to wake up the whole residence!
Sadly there's no native way to totally disable the charging alerts, but don't fret, the jailbreak community has your back.
PowerSoundDisabler is a jailbreak tweak that disables the charging sound and vibration notification whenever you plug your iPhone or other iOS device into a power source.
SpotTweet is a promising tweak that has one small problem, it doesn't actually work at the moment (at least it hasn't for me).
SpotTweet is supposed to allow you to send tweets directly from the Spotlight search input box, and everything seems okay until you tap the send button.
Check inside for our analysis of the flawed, but ultimately cool concept...
Yesterday we showed you how to manually replace the carrier logo in your status bar with the iDB logo. Today, iDB fanatic reader iPhoneiHelper decided to create his own set of iDB logos and put them on Cydia.
If you have Zepellin installed on your iPhone, go to Cydia and download the iDownloadBlog Logos for Zeppelin pack...
