It’s quite possibly because of the jailbreak, but this is a pretty funny fail. That’s a long time!

A very simple and sleek iPad home screen setup

What you’re looking at is a screenshot of my iPad with its new home screen setup. Of course, I’m jailbroken, so I get a lot of cool extra goodies. Full information after the break.

Animate Your SpringBoard With Barrel

Barrel is a really neat jailbroken mod that I recently found out about.  It’s $2.99 in Cydia, and allows you to add cool little transitions when you flip through your SpringBoard pages.  Read on to see if it’s worth the money.

RetinaPad for iPad – 2x the way it’s meant to be

The first that came to mind? “WOW”. Ryan Petrich’s latest hack for jailbroken iPads is “RetinaPad”. It’s $2.99 in Cydia, and it basically allows you to run apps in pixel-doubled mode the way they’re meant to be. If an app contains retina-display graphics, then RetinaPad will allow you to use those graphics instead of the [...]

Apple, for whatever reason, decided that the iPod Touch and iPad shouldn’t get the Usage menu in Settings>General.

This post will easily explain what these three things mean and how they may be important to you.

App Locket: Keep Your iOS Apps Secure

AppLocket is a jailbroken mod available in Cydia that adds a configurable passcode to certain applications on your iDevice. It’s $1.99 and installs as a little pane in the Settings application, as is the trend these days (very few Cydia packages actually install as apps anymore.) I’d say $1.99 is a fair price for what [...]

Froyo on your iPhone without a computer

While some Android devices are still waiting to get their dedicated version of Froyo, it looks like the original iPhone and iPhone 3G have received theirs. With the help of Bootlace you can install Android 2.2.1 on the iPhone without the need to even use a computer. While you could install Android before, Bootlace just made it that much easier for us.
