Stupid question but I installed SBSettings...now how do I use it? How to I access the app? And how do I relaunch the Springboard like people are saying to do so it doesn't look like an iPhone UI?

swipe your finger along the top of the screen.
 
LOL... once again Mac users have no problems, while Windows users get errors.

I guess you didn't read the whole thread....there are people here running OS X that had problems. And the Windows "error" only requires a simple workaround. It took me less than 2 minutes to jailbreak mine on Windows 7.
 
Im on OSX and it wiped out all my pictures on both my 3GS and iPad?

Any help on how to access SBSettings once its installed?
 
jailbroken iPad WiFi 16GB. Only qualm is ProSwitcher doesn't work yet, seems to crash, but also seems to have a new interface from what I can tell. i hope it's updated soon, cause this will turn the iPad into something even more awesome :)
 
Windows 7 64Bit here...

All of my photos stayed there, Jailbreak worked like a charm :)

Aha! Thank you. I read online how to do it but it said to swipe from the top and then downward and that wasn't working.

HOLY CRAP IS THIS EVER AWESOME!

This is the first time Ive jailbroken my iPhone (JB'ed my wifes to get MyWi on there but didn't install anything else). The SBSettings is too good to be true...that easy access to turning off Wifi and 3G and the brightness? I always HATED the stupid steps of going through the Settings menu. This is truely awesome. Time to donate some money to Comex. :D
 
thats weird. I used windows 7 x64 and it wiped out my pics.

Something I just noticed... All of the pictures I transferred from iTunes (The only ones I really cared about) Are still there, but anything I downloaded from the web is gone...
 
Just JB my iPad but can't install Backgrounder.

I go to 'Features Packages,' but when I click 'Backgrounder,' I get a message that says 'Note: Cannot Locate Package. ... I recommend installing more sources.'

Any ideas??

EDIT: Nevermind, had to go to 'Changes' and then click 'Refresh.' Then it downloaded some stuff and when I went back to Backgrounder, I was able to download...

Thanks for the update... that is totally unintuitive - and it doesn't work for me unfortunately. every time I click Refresh under changes I get error: refreshing data failed to fetch etc etc

Get outta here with his. Have both, had no issues doing this from my WinPC.

As for the photos, I had one photo in my Camera Roll and it is gone. All my copied photos remained.

well the only pics I had were downloaded from the web so maybe that explains it!
 
Yeah my camera roll got emptied on jailbreak - how odd. Not too bad though since it was only four images or so.
 
Any sites that show what the must have apps are from Cydia and howto guides? I just got Backgrounder but have no idea how to use it.
 
sigh... still unable to install backgrounder. can someone please post the steps involved? i don't get an install button. tried refresh under changes, and it does some stuff, but then I still have no install option for backgrounder...
 
anybody know know yet, why backgrounder won't download, it just goes to a cancel/Queue selection?
