The only reason I jailbreak is for backgrounder and 3g unrestrictor. I have themes and some other apps as well but those two are my favorites.

iBlacklist and Reminder (called Notifier in Cydia).

Then backgrounder.

These three apps are the only reason I jailbreak.

Custom theme(s) ala Winterboard are nice, but the above three are necessity for me.

a very small app but the auto-rotation toggle for sbsettings is easily the only reason i can even stand to use the iphone. its completely ridiculous that theres no way to natively turn off auto-rotating.

If I had to choose 3.

3G Unrestrictor
SBSettings
iRealSMS

Things I use on a daily basis.

Backgrounder would come fourth but realistically, I rarely need to multi task or have something running in the background.

And your other two? :confused:...

I used to have Backgrounder but took it off. I feel bad for my battery :p

  1. LockInfo
  2. SBSettings
  3. iFile/MobileTerminal
  4. StacksV3 and Categories

*I added one more, just for kicks. :D

It's hard to pick just 3 but I'd have to say my top 3 are:

  1. SBSettings
  2. Five Icon Dock
  3. Netatalk

Honorable mention goes to LockInfo.

I can't stop at three, sorry!

Backgrounder
Kirikae
SBSettings
FiveIconDock
iFile
Cyntact
SafariDownloadManager
iPodPop
CyDelete
PkgBackup
SysInfoPlus

I have to say, I've spent more money on Cydia apps than app store apps.

you dont need to pay for 3GUnrestrictor to get the same thing....just get Voipover3g....and then change the .plist to which ever apps you need to be used over 3g...viola
