How To: Jailbreak iOS 4.3.4 On iPhone 4 / 3GS, iPod Touch & iPad [Redsn0w 0.9.8b3]

<Category: Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, iTunes> Only 1 comment

iOS 4.3.4 is out and has been jailbroken already using the latest Redsn0w 0.9.8b3 release by Dev Team. Unlike the previous jailbreaks for iPhone 4 / 3GS, iPod Touch & iPad on iOS 4.3.x, this one is a tethered jailbreak since the existing untethered venerability discovered by @i0n1c has been patched by Apple in iOS 4.3.4 along with the PDF vulnerability found in iOS 4.3 to 4.3.3 used in JailbreakMe 3.0 by @comex. Nonetheless, Limera1n exploit still works on iOS 4.3.4 for all devices except the iPad 2 which can be applied to jailbreak your device using the latest Redsn0w.

<Category: Apple, iPhone, iPod> No comment

A new springboard enhancement tweak has just hit the Cydia store and is called SBFader. The tweak is developed by Alexandros Melakis and once installed, adds a simple “fade in” effect to the application icons when swiping across the springboard pages. You can also switch off the SBFader from Settings app and also adjust the opacity to which icons fade during the transition. There is also an option to adjust the duration (in seconds) of the fade effect.

[How To] Fix UISettings On iOS 5 Beta 2

<Category: Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod> 3 Comments

For those who haven’t yet had the privilege to test iOS 5 developers beta on their iPhone, iPod touch or iPad and then jailbreak it, UISettings is among the first jailbreak tweaks developed exclusively for iOS 5. It is integrated inside the Notification Center as a widget and does what SBSettings does for iOS 4 and below. However, with iOS 5 beta 2 update, the tweak seems to have stopped working and it just won’t show up after installation from Cydia. The developer appers to have ignored the fact and hasn’t yet released an update to fix the issue. However, it seems you can easily get it working on beta 2 nonetheless.

iOS 5 Downgrade With SHSH Blobs Blocked By Apple!

<Category: Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, iTunes> No comment

With Apple releasing iOS 5 into the hands of developers, all hackers and jailbreakers immediately started digging into the new iOS which brought tons of new features and enhancements. It rose the investable question, does the jailbreak work on iOS 5? and we found the answer to that pretty soon when MuscleNerd and company updated redsn0w to support iOS 5 jailbreak, though efforts of getting it untethered are currently under way. Unfortunately, a recent post from Dev-Team on their official blog has brought our attention to a rather troubling matter.

Download WiFi Booster & Enhance iPhone WiFi Signal Strenght [Cydia]

<Category: Apple, iPhone> No comment

A brand new jailbreak tweak knows as WiFi Booster, has just hit the Cydia store which virtually boosts your iPhone’s WiFi signal. Well, to be more precise, the tweak actually makes a few changes to the Settings app allowing it to show all WiFi networks in range even those with the poorest signal. This is achieved by reducing the signal threshold at which WiFi hotspots are shown as “available” in the iOS Settings. WiFi Booster removes this threshold and thus shows us even the most far away WiFI networks, which frankly speaking, isn’t of much use.

<Category: Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, iTunes, Twitter> No comment

Apple introduced iOS 5 less than 2 weeks back and released the first beta to developers with over 200 new features. Not long after that, Dev Team managed to jailbreak iOS 5 beta 1 with the same Limera1n exploit used for iOS 4.x which allowed Cydia developers to start developing tweaks for the new iOS. Without a doubt, iOS 5 Notification Center has caught the foremost attention of these developers with back to back widgets and customization releases in the last couple of days.
