I miss my JB and since my iPhone is no longer under warranty, I would like to go back until iOS 5 is out and a new JB is ready at that point.

Looking for suggestions on the best and most reliable method, also are there any other tools or apps that I need besides Cydia and Terminal?

Thanks
 
I went there and installed Cydia, then what, and do I still need Mobile Terminal to change the root password, also is everyone still using Winterboard?



What Apps need to be installed for a complete JB?

Thanks

On cydia, there is info on how to change the root password.
If you look through this forum, you'll find plenty of posts on essential jb programs (paid and free).

I prefer Redsn0w but JBme is okay. Mobile Terminal to change your root pass, and yes people still use Winterboard! :)

I'm not really sure what you mean by 'complete jb' but I personally have Redsn0w and SBSettings installed and I feel that's all I need. However, if you're someone that likes to have their iPhone themed out the yin yang and running all sorts of widgets then go for it!
