JB Apps eliminated by iOS 5

[bmwhd]

I'll shall continue to JB until an alternative to SBSchedule turns up.....unless It's already there and I've missed it

Amen. I counted today just for amusement. SBSchedule engaged 14 times so far

NOT eliminated by iOS 5:
Themes
Remove Background (apps) (force closes all running background apps)
Gridlock (lets you place your icons where you want them)
Lockscreen Clock Hide (so you can use HTC lockscreen theme)

I don't ask for much but Apple ain't givin' it to me.

agree with others there is no way notification center replaces lockinfo, no status bar icons is a horrible idea

not a big usuer of lockinfo, but I played around with it last night and it seemed much more 'capable' than what iOS 5 has so far. Wouldn't pay $8 for it though.

though some tweaks will become obsolete, they JB devs will only look at apples offerings and expand on them. im sure they will make the notification center even better, etc etc.

^^this is true. Expanding and developing on what's already there is what jailbreaking is all about.

Call Delete, CallClear, etc, is another JB app eliminated.

OS 5 introduces the ability to edit your recent call history making even more jailbreak tweaks obsolete.

A new Edit button at the top right of the Recents tab makes it easy to delete calls from your history list.

Yep. One idea just came into my mind. How about Sbsetting in Notification centre. Just like how weather is at the moment

And one which is needed i think, Clear ALL Notification. Why Do i have to go through every notification one by one. And even then I have to tap it Twice to remove it. Doesnt make sense. Notification Centre is Good but need work by Jailbreak community to make it Really useful.

I think the biggest app to continue to be used will be sbsettings. That is probably the most useful app invented. Being able to lock rotation, change brightness, ect at a moment notice amazing.
The other big thing will be themes. Most jailbreakers have some sort of theme applied. So Winterboard will be here to stay.

Also for me personally, my3g is crucial. And installous (got to test run apps before purchase)

If there is no QR I will still JB! I can live without QC but not QR. I hate having to leave what I am doing to send a reply text back.

Does calendar appointments show up on the lock screen with the new notification set up on iOS 5?

I fail to understand why there isn't a suitable non JB version, unless it's because it's not possible to do what SB Settings does without getting into the core of the OS

I think Lockinfo wasn't killed, but it'd be smart of the developer to re-write its app, in such a way that it uses and expands on Apple's solution, rather than completely replacing it.

It looks to me like almost all new ios features were already available in the app store and jailbreak community. I guess apple lost their innovative spirit. At best this should be called ios 4.3.4. I am personally disappointed.
