Cydia Tweaks

100 applications Cydia pour vous convaincre de jailbreaker votre idevice

Si vous avez un iPhone non jailbreaké, le site jailbreakmatrix.com partenaire du WWJC (des conférences sur le jailbreak qui se tiendront le 12 septembre 2012 à San Franscisco) a réalisé une vidéo pour vous convaincre de le faire en montrant 100 applications différentes disponibles sur Cydia. Toutes ces applications vous permettront d’ajouter des applications, des fonctionnalités à votre iPhone, iPad ou même iPod Touch qui ne sont pas proposées par Apple ou sur l’App Store.

Je vous rapelle que vous pouvez retrouver nos présentations et tests de tweak Cydia dans la catégorie “Application Cydia“.

La vidéo conclut ainsi : le jailbreak c’est 100% fiable, 100% légal (du moins aux USA suite à une décision de justice) et 100% gratuit.

Qu’en pensez-vous ? Avez-vous jailbreaké votre iPhone ? Êtes-vous satisfait ?

Use SiriHeights To Easily Adjust The Height Of Siri’s Pop-up Window

Having a custom Siri theme can be a cool addition to your iPhone interface, but what good would it do if it gets buried underneath the overlay when you press the home button to pop up your Siri interface. Siriheights lets you get rid of that limitation by letting you determine the height of the pop-up Siri window.

Siriheights has been in development for some time and it has now been released to the general public. If you found the lack of limitation of customizing aspects of the Siri popup window, then Siriheights jailbreak tweak would come handy to you.

Siriheights jailbreak tweak is pretty simple and easy to use. You get your standard settings menu to tinker with the customizable settings. There is a button to enable or disable Siriheights and a slider that does the actual work of adjusting the height of Siri’s window. You can use this slider to either raise the height of siri’s window or lower it if you like it better that way.

If you are one of those people who are into hardcore customization and customize every aspect of your iPhone, then Siriheights would really help you to fine-tune your adjustments so that all your custom themes and tweaks gel together as a whole and look good, rather than just looking as if meshed together chunkily.

iWhiteBoard For iPhone Lets You Doodle / Draw On Top Of Any Running App

The official App Store is full of doodling and drawing apps, but in some circumstances, having the ability to draw on a blank canvas just isn’t enough. Imagine a world where you can download any app, open up any photograph or even launch the Maps apps and add your own artistic flair to it using a bunch of built-in colors and options. I am about to introduce you to that very world.

The iWhiteBoard tweak is the one that has been living within the realms of Cydia for quite some time but has gone relatively unnoticed for one reason or another. The package installs as a MobileSubstrate tweak and is invoked through a default Activator method of shaking the device. Because iWhiteBoard integrates the Activator header files, the method of activation can be changed by the user to any other supported gesture. The essential core functionality of the tweak is that it allows users to doodle, draw and scribble over the top of any app, which can be useful in a number of situations.

Once activated, iWhiteBoard presents a handy little overlay on the screen with a few simple instructions telling users that a double or triple tap action can be used to bring up additional options, such as changing the default drawing color, as well as being able to save the created image to the device’s Camera Roll. On the face of things, iWhiteBoard may appear to be a simple tweak that allows views to be defaced, but it could actually serve as quite a powerful little tool to annotate screenshots or similar.

iWhiteBoard is available as a free of charge download from the BigBoss repository.

Of course, you will need to jailbreak your device to install this tweak. For jailbreaking the latest iOS 5.1 (tethered), follow the instructions posted here to jailbreak using Redsn0w, or here for Sn0wbreeze.
