mobilenotifier beta 4 for iPhone is coming… [Jailbreak]

Posted on 03 Apr 2011 by Thomas

Mobilenotifier, Peter Hajas’ alternative notification system for iOS, has gotten quite a bit of attention these last few weeks (more than Notified Pro did, despite its earlier release). I gave beta 3 a shot a few nights after it first came out, but it had a few problems with LockInfo …

Multifl0w makes my iPhone 3GS feel so much snappier! [Jailbreak]

Posted on 26 Mar 2011 by Thomas

  Aaron Ash’s Multifl0w ($4.99) is proving to be one of the best Cydia Store purchases I have ever made. It regularly outpaces Apple’s native iOS multitasking bar on my iPhone 3GS and makes it a lot easier for me to quickly manage memory by closing multiple apps in Exposé mode. …

NotificationGriP 3.0.1 is a great reason to buy Notified Pro [Jailbreak]

Posted on 08 Mar 2011 by Thomas

I know, I know. I just posted on Notified Pro a moment ago but, trust me, this is worth it and it deserves its own spot in the bloglight. NotificationGriP by Samball, one of the third-party extensions for Notified Pro, has received a number of awesome little updates since I …

Notified 2 Beta is out for iPhone [Jailbreak]

Posted on by Thomas

  This is just a heads-up to notify any eager fellow jailbreakers about the newly released Notified 2 beta available (Cydia source: http://beta.notifiedapp.com/). I’ve written a number of posts on iSource about Notified Pro if you’re curious about what it does, but the most useful one for people might be this …

Twizzler, the Jailbreak Answer to your Twitter QuickBar Blues

Posted on 05 Mar 2011 by Renkman

In case you haven’t yet heard, the official Twitter app for the iPhone was updated to version 3.3 yesterday.  That’s the good news.  The bad news–no one seems to like the main attraction, QuickBar.  I haven’t found one person yet who has commented favorably on how “trends” are now plastered …

Notified Beta 2 for iPhone is coming soon [Jailbreak]

Posted on 03 Mar 2011 by Thomas

  Funny. I had just finished complaining about a lack of updates to Notified Pro (back in my MobileNotifier post) when I got wind of a blog post on  developer Emilio Pelaez’ blog discussing — surprise, surprise — a new beta for Notified Pro. It’s not out just yet and I …

MobileNotifier beta 3: an interesting new iPhone notification extension [Jailbreak]

Posted on 28 Feb 2011 by Thomas

If you’re not satisfied with Notified Pro (which hasn’t seen an update in a while) or LockInfo for your alternative push notification needs, you might want to check out MobileNotifier after beta 3 runs its course. I read about the jailbreak extension on iClarified for the first time last night, …

Sort your iPhone e-mails automatically with Mail Rules [Jailbreak]

Posted on 21 Feb 2011 by Thomas

Mail Rules ($1.99) is a fantastic jailbreak extension that allows you to set mailbox rules just like you would on a desktop e-mail client. Once you’ve got Mail Rules configured correctly, you’ll have fewer junk messages lingering in your inbox and more time to work on your Angry Birds high …

Avoid Auto Correction ambushes with ManualCorrect for iPhone [Jailbreak]

Posted on 14 Feb 2011 by Thomas

Yikes. This is the second keyboard tweak I’ve posted in the last few days, although unlike ShowCase, ManualCorrect from Aaron Lindsay could have a major impact on how you type on your iPhone. The default auto correction system works well 90% of the time for me, but there are also …

ShowCase for iPhone: case-sensitive keyboard keys [Jailbreak]

Posted on 12 Feb 2011 by Thomas

ShowCase is a new tweak from ashikase (creator of Backgrounder, among many other things) that displays the current letter case right on the iPhone’s keyboard. It sounds like a relatively small change, but in the few minutes I’ve been using it, it has made typing feel a little more dynamic …
