Sad us 3G owners didnt get video along with the 3.0 update? Follow this video to learn how to get nice video recording for your iPhone 3G! Works on iPhone 2G as well!
Have an iPhone 3G/2G? Sad we don't have the hardware for the new 3GS-exclusive Compass app? Well with this it will make you 50% happier =D It's a spoof app but makes it look like you have the app on your device
planetbeing from the dev-team did a live showing of ultrasn0w on the 3GS, showing you that Cydia works perfectly and that the unlock is succesful. Great news for me as I have T-Mobile. Now I just need to get my hands on a 3GS!
We all saw last week's terrible news and as we lost the King Of Pop. Very sad story, I couldn't believe it myself. YouTube spotlight was on MJ, as well as all the trending topics on twitter, 80% of them were about MJ. R.I.P Michael Jackson, you'll be missed.
Now if you were a big fan, and have a jailbroken iPod/iPhone. Here's a nice theme I found in Cydia for all of you.
To find it easily just search in Cydia, Michael Jackson and should be the first theme that comes up, just to make sure it's the right one, use this screenshot to match it up
I'm sure you all remember George Hotz, aka GeoHot, the one who first unlocked the iPhone(the original one). Well he did it again by unlocking the iPhone 3GS.
Now he did however use redsn0ws code and only changed around 10 lines of it. But still he has created the first jailbreak. So why isn't it released yet? Well I don't want to break anyones heart, but the dev-team is holding off on that. Here the blog post to see for yourself.
So GeoHot has the luxury of having the only jailbroken phone unless planetbeing does too as he just got a nice new 3GS as well, courtesy of all the followers.
This video is to show you how to get the Battery Percentage feature that's only supposed to be in the iPhone "3GS". Why Apple didnt give it to 3G users is beyond me but if your jailbroken this is a nice feature to use.

So I was looking through cydia last night and noticed that you had to pay for a few themes that were in changes...future of themes for cydia? hope not.
This application review is on a Cydia App called Supreme Preferences. If you just read the first sentence and have no clue what cydia is, you my friend are missing out. You need to jailbreak your iPhone/iPod Touch. Now instead of making the 234,453,455,534 post on how to jailbreak I’ll just put a link on the video how-to, its simple don’t be scared.
Supreme Preferences gives you about twice the power of settings on your device, from your phone to your calculator application. It gives more options to change the stock applications as well as some cydia ones. You can change your safari settings, mail, iPod, everything.
Let’s start off by saying the app and the changes your allowed to make to them.
Well Supreme Preferences, when installed, gives you your own section in the stock settings applications. It also changes the icon to a more noticeable settings icon. Supreme preferences allows the Push option to give you anywhere from 1 minutes to 30 minutes, then hourly, 3 hours, 6 hours, every 12, daily, and the stock manually one. From there, there are no changes in anything else. The rest of the settings are in supreme preferences.
When you click on supreme preferences, you are giving the following options to change:
Applications
Home
iPod
Mobile Substrate
Status Bar
System
And About
When you click on applications, you are given options for
Mail, Calendars
Phone + SMS
Photos
Safari
App Store
+ More
In the mail setting, not much is added but disabling the background mail process that is automatically set, Phone and Mail are the only ones that are constantly running on the iPhone. Signature is there as well as allowing customization of how many messages you want, you click and the keyboard comes up to allow the user to enter in whatever number he/she pleases. And Calendars are just there for options for when the user’s day is to begin and end.
Phone + SMS pane allows EDGE editing and international assist. International assist automatically adds the correct prefix to the US numbers when dialing from abroad. Dim in call, which should be set, and Lock after call which is pretty nice. For SMS, options for compose new Message, Show the SMS preview, and a SMS alert, not too much here. Photos is the same as the stock settings that are given because not much can be changed. In Safari“Find in Page” is an option that adds a bookmark to work as the “find” you would on your mac or PC. Animated Images are also a switch as well as shrink images to fit, and display images. For the App Store settings all that’s there is to save the password for either App Store or the iTunes store so you don’t have to enter it everytime. This is great, but also bad if you have the friends that don’t know what they’re doing and while you were playing rockband they charge up to 30 bucks in apps installing and buying. So think about it before you hit that “On” switch.
In More you are allowed to switch Calculator settings, restore, and for Maps you can have Live Search and Show Traffic On/Off. In stocks you can show percentages and YouTube just shows what you last searched for.
In Home settings you are allowed to change the Home Button to any application you choose, maybe you text a lot so have the Home Button set to texts, Maybe you take pictures a lot so set it to Camera, have Cydia? Any Cydia apps and app store apps are available as well as your own custom ones. You can also disable the Apple Boot Logo. I’ll have a tutorial on how to change your boot logo coming up soon. You can also hide the battery on charge and choose to reflect the dock icons.
iPod is basic, it’s most of the same settings that you get in the stock settings.
In Mobile Substrate you get Hide Icon Labels and Prevent App Deletion which is great if you sometimes have lag on the home screen and you start tapping every and you hit the X button.
In Status Bar you get to change your carrier name, change the color wheel (loading) have fake time shortcuts, change the time to say something else and also a big thing is to have you Wi-Fi, Signal, and battery percentage in NUMBER format instead of pictures.
System, our last and final pane comes with options to control brightness which was just updated, auto dim, auto lock, custom dim and lock, and whether to disable it or not. You can also have it disable respring so that no apps such as winterboard resprings and so the user manually does it. It then gives you options for keyboard which is stock as well. And then gives you Logs for power, disk space and cannot open apps.
There’s also a touch pane but I refuse to test, as it says messing with it could result in restoring your device, and I don’t have time for the risk, the about tab just gives info on the Application
