General What Cydia tweaks you'll keep/ditch after IOS7?

Keeping: Activator, AltKeyboard, DietBulletin, LockInfo (unless persistent lockscreen notifications happen), Messages+, OpenNotifier, OpenOther, StatusTweak, TetherMe, VideoPane, Zephyr
Ditching: Hopefully BTNotificationEnabler (depends how Pebble and the iOS 7 updates play out) FolderEnhancer, NCSettings, SwipeNav.

I'm staying with my iOS 6 jailbreak until the iOS 7 one comes out.
 
One more tweak I'll be looking to keep: Yahoo Is Better!

The app that makes the Yahoo weather app the default weather app in iOS.

If there was one for Google Maps, I'd get that as well, but that may be an even push; both are battery intensive, though Google Maps doesn't route you through toll roads, which is a plus.

You can use MapsOpener or Browser Changer to make google maps your default navigation app.
 
I am hoping for a iOS 7 jailbreak so that if and when i update to iOS 7 (currently on 5.1.1) i can theme it to get look of iOS 6/5 completely. Hope such a theme comes and i am sure it will since i believe many people do want iOS 5/6 look back.
iPhone 4S here.
 
What I want to keep:
Ask to call - This has saved me many times from mis-dialing someone when the phones in my pocket.
Ask to send - again, that second prompt when your about to fire off a text in a rage!:D or when you suddenly realise you forgot mention something in current text.
XBMC- Its awesome.
DisplayOut- So i can stream XBMC from my iPad to my TV at wide screen.
ProTube Extension- For downloading Youtube content.
SafariDownloader- On the tin.
Autoscroller- On the tin.

What I'll probably ditch:
NCsettings
Theming tweaks

TBH I don't know enough about iOS 7 features to say what I'll ditch or keep...right now all I know is there are a lot of JB tweaks that I'm realising I rely heavily on:eek:
 
I would be happy to ditch everything but BiteSMS....we have been asking for a quick reply for years...and yet apple have still decided not to offer it. This is typical of a company that doesn't listen to what it's customers want but instead decides to dictate to what it *thinks* we want

I own an iPad 3.

I find the quality is great mirrowing XBMC content to my current 24" LED TV using the 30pin to HDMI/charger. Im planning to buy my 42incher soon and can't imagine the quality will change that much.

The only thing is, I dont think the AV cables available supports or possibly its the iPad that doesnt support movie mirrowing higher than 720p, you may find some HD movies flicker and content from iTunes store is block to mirror out but there are ways around this via a quick google search and hunt on cydia. DisplayOut can help with this a little, plus its definitely needed to adjust the ipads screen size to the full width of your tv or you'll end up viewing content at the iPads standard resolution.
 
I've got a JB'kn 3GS, 4, 4S and iPad 2. All will remain on their respective JB OS versions. No real reason to update any of them to iOS7 (or even iOS6). My new 5C will have iOS7, of course, so I'm stuck with that until a JB becomes available.

I don't do a lot with jailbreaks other than SMS, themes, HTC time/weather on lock screen, remove running background apps, Barrel, Lockscreen Clock Hide, TeatherMe. Kind of a lot actually...

I can't recall ever ditching anything due to an OS upgrade's offerings.
 
I will JB for BiteSms, to remove the dock and infinidock. FWIW you cannot nest folders on 7.

I broke my 5 and had to replace it back around sept first so I lost my JB then. So I went ahead and upgraded to iOS 7
