If you're looking for a way to remove your app notification badges in one fell swoop, there are many options to do so. Just search for "badges" in Cydia, and you're bound to come up with a few options for suppressing those annoying badges.
And then there are tweaks like Springtomize 2, which removes badges, along with about a million other functions.
But if you just want a tweak that will silence your app badges, and nothing else, then there's a new option called BadgeRemover...

Plugication — the jailbreak tweak that automatically resumes music upon connecting your headphones to your device — has been officially released to the public.
Our preview covered Plugication's main feature, but a version is also in the works that will allow users to disable the "pause on disconnect" feature that happens when you remove headphones.
Plugication can be downloaded for free from Cydia's ModMyi repo. Be sure to share your thoughts after giving it a try.
"Good evening, Dave."
Yes, the inevitable has finally happened, we're just curious why it took so long.
Indeed, Siri has finally been laced with a classic HAL 9000 theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
It's all possible thanks to a WinterBoard theme, and a handful of UISounds that replace the stock Siri sounds. Check out our how-to video inside...
Isn't it weird that the stock Messages app doesn't automatically convert ASCII smiley faces into Emoji icons?
I never understood why Apple neglected to include this feature; I think they should have at least made it an option.
Thanks to the jailbreak community, now it is an option, and that option is called SMSmileys...

Lock screen app launcher, AppSlide, has made its way to the Cydia store this afternoon. As we previously discussed, AppSlider is a jailbreak tweak that allows you to customize your Lock screen with two shortcuts to your favorite apps.
You can launch your favorite apps directly from the Lock screen, and if you have a passcode enabled, AppSlider will respect the passcode before allowing you to launch the app.
You can download AppSlider for free on Cydia's BigBoss repo. Let us know what you think about it.
Tweaks like these are the reason why I love jailbreaking so much. Jailbreaking allows you to add obvious features to the iPhone that Apple may have looked over, or purposely omitted.
Plugication is the perfect example of what I'm talking about. It's a jailbreak tweak that forces your music to resume when you plug your headphones back into your device.
Check out our full video demonstration of Plugication inside...

This is a dream come true for sports fans, even if you don't like the NBA. The fact that someone has finally created an addon for AssistantExtensions to allow Siri to query sports scores is a win for sports fans of every type.
This means it's only a matter of time before you can search MLB, NFL, NCAA, and Premier League matches with Siri.
It's called SiriNBA, and it's the very first jailbreak tweak of its type. Check inside for our hands-on video...
When traveling abroad, there's just some things that you should do that are just no brainers. One of them is knowing the exchange rate between your native currency, and the currency of the country you're travelling to.
In the old days this used to take a little legwork, i.e. reading the newspaper, going to the post office, etc. With the smartphone boom, though, currency conversion is often right at your fingertips.
As is the case with this new jailbreak widget, entitled Currency Convertor. It's a widget that conveniently sits in iOS 5's Notification Center for easy access...
