My favorite JB-apps (iOS 4 & iPhone 4):

- Firewall iP (monitoring and control of outgoing connections, a musthave!)
- Infinidock (enables scrolling of the dock and manages the icons, replaces Five Icon Dock)

- Insomnia Toggle for SBSettings
- Remove Background SBSettings Toggle (removes/kills all apps)

- iLock (replaces code-input in the lockscreen with the android-like unlock method)

DAY-UMMMMM :eek:

How much money have you spent on these apps so far?
 
Remove Background SBSettings Toggle

Thanks for this!

Perfect for hitting the toggle before stuffing the phone in my pocket.
 
Figured I'd throw in some that I don't think anyone has mentioned:

Quick Dismiss- dismisses any alert on lockscreen or unlocked.

Shrink- settings to size icons, docked and undocked

Simple Background- android style (i think?) background pages. Better integrated and free unlike panorama.

User Agent Faker- Tricks websites into giving you the full version instead of a dumbed down mobile version...when switched on. Its a standalone app I use to replace the sbsettings toggle, since I don't use it anymore.

Volume Media Settings- possibly my favorite (next to quick reply). Let's you skip tracks or pandora songs with the volume buttons.

Thanks dawg. Gonna try this out. Just made a post about this yesterday, was wondering what to use to do it =)
 
How do you adjust the volume with this active?

S-

When nothing is playing, volume buttons function like normal. When iPod or other music app is playing, volume is adjusted from within the app. I usually leave the level the same anyway so it's not confusing. It's perfect for the car where it's much easier and safer to click a button than look down at the screen.

What is you setup the volume controls to start music when none is playing? Then you are stuck without volume controls, right?

^^^^ doesn't seem to work on 4.0.1 Iphone 4....

Only volume up (forward) works. Volume down (previous track) doesn't seem to work. Only tested with MOG app...
 
is there a good app for streaming music from your itunes to your iphone 4 wireless? simplify is obsolete now and orb works okay but it buffers way too much.

All of these iphone 4 compatible?
 
Yes all work on my ip4 with 4.0.1.

Works fine for me on iPod. Don't know what MOG is.

S-

In-call volume always adjusts the volume. I don't think I would want to set it so it starts playing music, then if you bump the button in your pocket it will start playing.

I'm going to have to withdraw my recomendation for Simple Background after some major problems this morning. Every time I would open an app, the entire screen would shrink to the top left hand corner. Springboard was fine but every app I opened was unusable when it shrunk. Very weird. I finally got it to go into safe mode after several restarts. Once in safe mode I went to cydia and deleted Simple Background since it was the only app I recently downloaded. Everything else I've been running for months. I can't be sure it was the culprit, but the phone is running fine now.
 
I'd like to add

Infiniboard
GridLock

Unfortunately, these two don't play well together so you have to choose one or the other. Hopefully with some updates, these two can coexist :eek:
 
BiteSMS or iRealSMS?

Oh, and anything like StatusNotifier that has retina support? I just want the icons for like SMS etc to be on status bar, nothing else.

Nothing yet. Notifier has it but the icons are not Retina.. and will never be.

There is Notified Pro, but that hasnt released its statusbar icon plugin. but has other notification plugins.
