Hey, everyone. Rorypiper, again. Got a great tutorial this week, that will show you how to change the names of your SMS tones.
Typically, when you download new SMS tones from Cydia, and apply them in Winterboard, you still have the same stock names of the tones, when you go into Settings -> Sounds -> New Text Messages. With this hack, you will be able to have those names, reflect the … Read More
Since the announcement of Apple’s iPad, there have been a few new themes pop up in Cydia, emulating the look of the iPad’s UI. This isn’t much of a stretch, as the iPad UI is very similar to that of the iPhone and iPod Touch. With some subtle changes to the wallpaper, lockscreen, and dock, you’ve got a mini iPad in your hands.
This should go without saying, but in order … Read More

Every time I take a screenshot to review an iPhone App or to broadcast my iPhone’s homescreen on the blog, I always get questions about the little icons I have in my iPhone’s status bar.
You might have seen them too, and been wondering where they are from. The tweak is called Notifier and it’s available via Cydia (requires a jailbroken iPhone). Notifier will put tiny icons into the iPhone’s status … Read More
When I got my iPhone 3G back in July 2008, the first thing I did was jailbreak it. I did this because of all of the awesome stuff you could do which I had learned from jailbreaking/unlocking my iPhone 2G. When the iPhone 3GS came out, I chose not to jailbreak simply because most of the reasons that I did jailbreak before were now standard features on the iPhone 3GS…all … Read More

Now, before you get freaked out, you don’t have much to worry about if your iPhone is NOT jailbroken. This exploit only applies to people who…

Hello. RoryPiper here again. This week I’ve got a “how-to” Winterboard theme, that will allow you to set anything you want as your 3G logo.
This will work on Mac or Windows. All you really need is some kind of image editing software, that will allow you to create and export a PNG file, with a transparent background. I’ll be using Adobe Photoshop CS4.
The image we are going to create is … Read More
One of the main reasons people jailbreak their iPhones, is to get the ability to customize the iPhone OS with different themes that can be downloaded from Cydia or, if you have the capability, create yourself.
