:-) Suffice to say, it makes your phone do wicked-awesome stuff :-)

Now I can't imagine having a non-jailbroken version of my iPhone 4. From Lockscreen cydgets to BiteSMS, tethering, SBSettings, Installous, Winterboard etc etc etc. I literally couldn't imagine my iPhone without them.
And i absolutely loved the day or so i had it jailbroken for, and considering everything i've read says there is little to no risk of bricking your phone, it seems like the "right" thing to do. The problem i had was that i had installed backgrounder, and some stop multitasking app that i forget the name of, that along with something else. I was trying to make it so that i could all together kill apps but keep them in the background if i wanted. Everytime i would go into sbsettings, ipod would be running even if i hadn't used it. If i killed the process, it would just be there a few seconds later again! This frustrated me and so i restored my phone. Now i'm thinking of jailbreaking but taking it slow and not going app-install-crazy. I don't know :-)

Do it! Just in moderation that's all. This way you can try to pinpoint what app gives you issues, if any.

Wait.... you had backgrounder running along side a stop multi-tasker at the same time? Wouldn't those two have problems running concurrently as one is always trying to do the opposite of the other?

Yeah maybe start out with the essential apps and then roll from there. Gizmodo put out something on a new multi-task managing app. I'll look it up and get back to you ;tu

I used Greenpois0n for my iPhone as well as Echo's. I JB a friends iPhone for them using Limera1n just because I wanted to see if there were any inherent differences.

I could see how that app would cause trouble with Backgrounder. They would just keep trying to cancel each other out.

i suppose that makes sense, i guess i didn't fully understand what i was doing, i just downloaded them based on suggestions from a friend; maybe he didn't know what he was doing either.

Was there any difference in greepois0n vs limera1n, any reason to use one over another, or even alternative options? I'm going to light a nice cigar and get crackin on this soon :-)

btw - is there an alternative chat anywhere that people are still using?

just did a jb, love limera1n, takes like 2 seconds. Installed openssh, changed root and mobile passwords and turned sshd off. Installed winterboard, five icon dock, iFile, sbsettings so far thats it. Any suggestions? :-)

Install activator through cydia, it allows you to set things to button presses ie. Short hold on home button to activate camera.. Whatever you want, it's pretty sweet... Insomnia is another good one.. Forces your iPhone to stay on wifi when it's available.. Facebreak is cool, it allows you to use FaceTime over 3G... 3G unrestrictor is awesome if you wanna use apps that require wifi over 3G... There's tons of great stuff.. I know a thing or two about jailbreaking lol ;-)

Good job bro :-)

If you tether, I recommend MyWi (no rock version)
I also recommend BiteSMS for a much better SMS interface (think txting without leaving an app/game/etc)
Installous obviously :-)
Infiniboard or Infinidock
Intelliscreen
Activator

Those are my basics

Thanks for the suggestions gents. I don't see Installous when searching cydia, is it from an alternate source?

I have used Tethering with the unjailbreaked version of my phone, and i have 6gb per month data with my provider, what would MyWi do for me?
[Reply]
Nefari0us 10:27 PM 10-20-2010
Yeah, MyWi is great, but DONT try to install the cracked version of mywi... That locked up my phone and caused me to lose my original jailbreak

Add source hackulo.us
[Reply]
Nefari0us 10:29 PM 10-20-2010
Add hackulo.us and download installous from there

Sorry for just jumping in the middle of your conversation... Didn't mean to be rude... I'm just incredibly bored

goalie204 10:34 PM 10-20-2010
it's all good man, its a thread not a pm :-) see my previous editted post for another question. Got activator (must have come with something i already installed), and installous now from cydia.hackulo.us
[Reply]
Nefari0us 10:36 PM 10-20-2010
Another source I like to add is sinfuliphonerepo.com
I used to add tons of sources but I'm able to find most of what I need on those
[Reply]
goalie204 10:37 PM 10-20-2010
got installous, searched bitesms on it and couldnt find it, so got it from cydia lol
[Reply]
Nefari0us 10:41 PM 10-20-2010
Installous Wouldn't have bitesms, isn't that a cydia app?
