Greetings,

I apologize in advance if this has been answered/asked

I'm still on 4.2 but now that the untethered JB is out for the Iphone4 my question is...


how do i keep/save all of my apps/tweaks that i'm currently using on my JB Iphone so that i can continue to use them on 5.0 (5.01)?

Thanks in advance

You can use aptbackup, however this only backs up a list. There are also paid alternatives in cydia that can do more for you.
 
Pkgbackup is the most popular, paid however.

Or..you can do it the old fashioned way (which I think actually works best eventhough I own pkgbackup) of just taking screenshots of your packages and sources, and reinstalling them like that.
