iPicMyContacts will extend Apples contacts/favorites list by adding the contact picture next to the contact name. because iPicMyContacts integrates with Apples inner contacts list, it will also work on every application that uses Apples default contacts lists.

I pushed libhide 2.0.8 to the beta repo. For those of you that have the beta repo installed and have experienced a bug where after installing apps from appstore or cydia, all icons that were hidden are unhidden until you respring next, well this *might* fix that. I say might, because I cannot reproduce this issue so cannot be sure it’s fixed.

Also, please do not post the beta repo link here. If someone needs it, please email me for it.

Finally, it has been brought to my attention that libhide no longer works on 2.x firmware. Unfortunately, I have no 2.x device to test on anymore. It’s probably just time for you 2.x users to update at least to 3.x. Anyone that has a valid reason why they cant update to 3.x or 4.x, please email that to me so I can understand.

AnyRing – The popular Mobile-Substrate extension has just being updated on Cydia Store. RockYourPhone store was not updated with this version, as it closes up in a few days. With AnyRing you can easily select any song on your iPhone (or Record you own voice) to play as a Ringtone or SMS Ring. AnyRing even [...]

Late Friday the news was made official and quite large news it was; Cydia owns Rock

This will mean different things for different people, but we feel it is a great move for the jailbreak community

Update: If you have Backgrounder installed and SBSchedule didn’t work for you, update version 1.2.2 should fix this issue !

SBSchedule has been updated and now offers iOS 4 support, and a well requested feature, control over your system and ringtone volume settings. Also quite a few minor requests and issues have been handled as well.

Apple released 4.1 today. It breaks your jailbreak. Avoid it until a jailbreak is released.  !function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?’http’:'https’;if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+’://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js’;fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, ‘script’, ‘twitter-wjs’);lang: en_US

I really get a lot of email on sbsettings toggles so I think I will try to clarify a few things:

1) SBSettings does not now nor has it ever had an airplane mode toggle. Instead, it has a phone toggle and a Wi-Fi toggle. To achieve something similar to airplane, simply turn off phone and turn off Wi-Fi. Whether or not you see the plane symbol in status bar is irrelevant. This was a side effect of how this worked in previous firmwares. In iOS4, you no longer see that symbol. Instead you see no service. What more would you expect when turning off phone? Other than the symbol not showing up, it’s the same as it was. The internal function call used is even the same. No, this should not cause additional battery drain.

2) Data toggles. There are 2 of them:

- EDGE toggle – this was the original version in 1.x (BossPrefs) and 2.x. As of 3.x, it worked for some people but not others.  This is now a separate installable package in Cydia for those that liked it for some reason. I removed it from the toggle pack because it was unreliable.

- Data toggle – in 3.x this killed data by setting the data IP to 127.0.0.1. In 4.0, this uses the native iOS method to disable data. This is the preferred way to disable data.

3) 3G toggle. This is like the 3g button in settings app. It switches between 3g on and off. If this is ON, you have 3g, if this is OFF you have EDGE. In order for 3g to work, data toggle must be enabled. If you turn off data toggle, 3g will be on but you will still have no internet.  The devices are smart in that if they can connect via 3g, they will so there’s no need to force 3g over EDGE.

4) Processes – This widget has a free memory button that has generated a lot of confusion. This button has a threshold and only frees memory when you have low enough memory for it to need to do so.  The free memory algorithm is not something you really want to run frequently, which is why there is such a threshold in place.

5) SSH – This toggle only works if open ssh is installed (correctly). It also forces itself to be on for reboot of device so that if you get into trouble you have an opportunity to fix the problem using SSH without a restore.

There are many other 3rd party toggles, most of which I did not write. Even location toggle, which is included in the core toggle pack, was written by someone other than me. If you have problems with a specific toggle, make sure you contact the toggle’s author.
