Jailbreak

‘Twas the night before Christmas… Just like when I was a child waiting on Santa Claus, tonight I want to stay up all night in hopes that the talented evad3rs team will release the highly anticipated iOS 6.x Jailbreak sooner rather than later. There is more progress to report–as of …

The evad3rs already claim to have a working unteatherd Jailbreak for iOS 6.x–this much we know.  As of last night, we now have a little more information about the official evasi0n.com website link posted by pod2g.  Further investigation reveals there are a few tasty tidbits of facts already made public on …

Today Apple released iOS 6.1, their latest software update.  With it came the predictable and exciting “improvements” and “bug fixes”.  In addition, there is now expanded LTE for supported carriers, and the added ability to purchase movie tickets through Siri in the US. Furthermore, if you are an iTunes Match …

I’m no longer jailbroken and I don’t plan to be any time soon, but it’s still fun to see how some of the top tier jailbreak plugins are still evolving. LockInfo has been reviewed a number of times here on iSource, and although I find the new version just a …

I'm now back to stock iOS 5.1.1 on both my iPhone and iPad. Using Absinthe to jailbreak was very easy, but I don't think I'll be missing anything from the jailbroken side of the fence. I liked having AppSliders and Zephyr on my iPhone, but none of the other tweaks …

According to this tweet from Ron Melkhior, AppSliders was updated last night, and it has almost-instantly become one of my favourite iPhone jailbreak tweaks. But this post is less about the actual update, and more about how you'll definitely want to check AppSliders out on Cydia. AppSliders lets you place …

Jailbreaking and theming my 3GS was still a laggy experience on my 3GS, so I was curious to see how my iPhone 4S would handle being skinned. I’m aware that skinning isn’t an incredibly laborious process as far as the CPU is concerned, but I distinctly remember two states on …

FullScreen for Safari is one of Cydia’s most prominent tweaks, and for about $1.50, it will add gestures and fullscreen capabilities to Mobile Safari on your iPhone and iPad. I decided to give this tweak a try in the hopes that it would lend a cleaner look to my mobile …

UniBar is one of those jailbreak tweaks that I’m really hoping will be officially implemented in iOS 6. UniBar takes the address bar and the search bar within Mobile Safari and combines them into one super bar. It’s actually very similar to what my eyebrows keep threatening to do. I …

I’ve written briefly about the concept behind SwipeSelection, but it wasn’t until I decided to jailbreak with Absinthe 2 last week that I was able to really give it a try on my iPhone and iPad. SwipeSelection improves text selection on a touchscreen by adding an extra set of controls …

Zephyr is a $5 jailbreak tweak from Cydia that adapts multitasking gestures for the iPhone. With Zephyr installed, horizontal swipes along the edge of the screen will slide you between apps, and upward swipes along the bottom of the screen will exit your current app (or bring up the multitasking …
