Ever since I got my Apple device, it took no more nor less than two years. During this time, changed many versions of firmware, many new applications have been added in the AppStore, and is much less of it is removed. But practically it remained unchanged - it is a usable iPhone. This high-tech device helped and is still helping to solve everyday problems easily swipe, making life easier in some respects, you could say.
Everything was fine and I was happy with, until I saw the video of "100 reasons for the jailbreak." So I set about trying to do the same jailbreak. It's time, and in May 2012 released an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1 (which I have, and stood at the time of the decision to jailbreak). I did jailbreak and was blown open to new possibilities! I will not list here all his experience with unlocked iPhones, but I can only say that with all these cool features poyavyatsya and some system instability, especially in the case of a man like me, who tries to on the tooth is more or less interesting tweaks. In a nutshell, a couple of times I hung the phone tightly, had to reflash. The last time hovered yesterday Tethered jailbreak iOS 6.0, then the only option for me left - to flash on iOS 6.0.1. Jailbreak it does not have, and you have to remember the old days and comfortable tweaks.
In this regard, I want to introduce you my personal top 10 most useful tweaks from Cydia (just say: these tweaks raise the usability of the device; of whistles and sopelkah as the changes and I will not mention the appearance springborda). In parentheses indicate the price at the moment in Cydia, and my assessment of the likelihood of the addition in iOS in (not) back in the future.
1. NCSettings(Free, 50/50)
This amazing in its simplicity (and, incidentally, beauty) utility notification center (MC) allows you to instant access to many important switches: Mode on the plane, VPN, AutoCorrect, WiFi, etc. Really miss this functional!
2. SwipeSelection(Free, 65%)
Unreal handy thing to get used to that from the first second! When typing text, you can slide your finger across the virtual keyboard and move the cursor left and right, up and down! Positioning accuracy - incredible! Still I am trying to slide your finger back to a typo, but it is impossible to nerazblokirovannom device ...
3. Jukebox(0,99$, 75%)
A small utility that adds CO audio player management tools. Managed swipe left or right to rewind between songs, there is also a hidden menu with "push-button" controls information about the rating, the possibility of opening the player, tweet.
4. iFile ($ 4, NI-COG-YES)
A full file manager, which allows access to all sections of the system with the ability to edit. He knows a large number of extensions. Without it - as without hands!
5. DataDeposit (Free, 0%)
A very useful tool, especially for Gamer. You can use it in your Dropbox zabekapit your progress in the passing game on one device, then transfer to another device and continue playing. You can also make a backup of the data from the folder Library and Documents for any application.
6. iCleaner (Free, 0%)
A handy utility for cleaning various types of debris from * well, quite unnecessary user iPhone4 * PNG file format for iPad and iPhone5 to various crash logs, and even system languages. On my device cleared over 600 megabytes after use.
7. Zephyr ($ 2.99, part of the functions may be displayed)
A handy tweak, from functional which I really like the ability to open the multitasking menu using the swipe on the bottom of the screen upwards. It allows you to extend the lifetime of the key "Home" for very long! Additionally, you can configure the application to switch between running programs using a swipe from left to right and disable functionality in certain applications. At this point in iOS 6.0 for the iPad is an analogue: it is necessary to bring together the four fingers on the screen and pull up - open the multitasking menu.
8. Dater (0.99$, 60%)
A small utility that allows direct access to the important information about the photo, as the date of creation.
9. Nickname (0,99$, 75%)
Utility for Contacts / Messages and all other applications that work with the contact list. It allows you to display information from the field Nickname instead of the name-surname.
10. Deck (1.99$, 30%)
A very useful tool, giving access to the side panel with the basic settings and selected applications and 7 (screenshot 6 as was done in earlier applications). Activation options are configurable via Activator application, but Apple could introduce a sidebar fixed option activation, for example, by means of swipe on the taskbar.
Many of these applications are in no way violate the policy ENCLOSED Apple system, so I dare to hope that even a few years, but some of the tweaks will share the fate of PlayAwake - the possibility of playing music as an alarm - which still appeared in iOS 6.0!
