Just want to let you know that Saurik and Chronic-Dev team have pushed update to Corona untether for iOS 5.0.1 this morning, dubbed Corona 1.0-5, frankly this one the second update of the previous 1.0-4.

The reason for the second update was due to some users didn’t notice they need to reboot their device once they installed the 1.0-4 for the untether to takes effect.

As the result many users reported they failed in the updating process. Seeing the situation Saurik took an initiative act to bring minor feature in 1.0-5 which is to force reboot after upgraded.

The major updates for Corona today was to fix the iBooks crash and to stabilizes errors found in several Cydia applications and Tweaks. These are updates included in 1.0-4 and automatically put in the 1.0-5 too.

Anyway if this is your first time hearing Corona — albeit I very much doubt it — Corona is untethered jailbreak utility released last year by Chronic-Dev team based on Pod2G’s exploit along with the release of Redsn0w 0.9.10b1.

Both Corona and Redsn0w bring the same utility, the blatant different between these two is to use Corona your iPhone must already jailbroke, whether using Redsn0w or PwnageTool.

Thus these two jailbreak utilities are supporting each other. In otherwise, you can regard Redsn0w is the starting point to further jailbreak your iOS 5.0.1 using Corona.

Anyway if you want to install or upgrade to Corona 1.0-5, you can do so by launching Cydia store and then refresh your source or if this your first time to install Corona package, search for Corona and then install its package and then follow the further steps.

Hope you enjoyed reading this post and see you again!

Don’t send an SMS to the wrong person, or else the sky might fall on your head. This was probably the line who inspired this Cydia tweak developer to create confirmSMS to avoid such situation happens.

It would be huge awkward if your romantic SMS was sent to your lover’s mother, just because you are too excited to let her know your feelings via words. But it was her mother phone number that got the honor to receive your suit words.

confirmSMS will ask a confirmation whether: “Are you sure want to send this?” This will give us a second chance, to recheck that everything is okey and if it is, simply hit on GO! So your SMS is safely sent to the correct person — not to her mother.

Anyway we are human, made mistake is our unavoidable destiny, but at least we can prevent to create a BIGGER one.

You can get confirmSMS for free in Cydia under BigBoss repository. But firstly your iPhone must already jailbroke, read the tutorial to jailbreak iPhone 4 with Redsn0w 0.9.10b here.

And see you again !

There is a Cydia tweak, named StyleUnlock, that will allow you to unlock your iPhone with various gestures. You can perform number of gestures you chose like slide it, pinch it, swipe it (down, up, right, left) or even double tap it! This will give you plenty of options to unlock your device, albeit the current slide to unlock is sufficient already.

But in regard to be stylish, you can perform those various styles before your friends that your beloved jailbroke iPhone can respond of unlocking styles that theirs can not do. One more thing the StyleUnlock can not be stopped albeit you have set passcode to your phone.

You will be given 13 options for unlocking gestures and can be arranged in the Settings app underlock StyleUnlock tab. And there won’t icon placed in your homescreen.

The problem is how if you forget which the gesture you have chosen. Could be a minor trouble, right? Anyway you can grab this tweak for free under BigBoss repository.

Today I would like to introduce a Cydia Tweak, the developer of it named it, AppLocker 2.  A little brother of the famous Applocker, developed by Ori Kadosh one of iPhone respective developers. What AppLocker 2 will do to you is securing your iPhone from the outsiders whether they are tinkerers or intruders from intruders.

AppLocker 2 is focusing to secure your applications, folders and others content within your device. And you can lock certain of apps or folders anytime you like with password, or unlock the certain apps you think they are ok to be unguarded and it can also be set in setting.

How about in Wi-Fi network? This smart app will amaze you I guess. I will smartly detect where you are, let’s say you are at home with your Wi-Fi activated, it knows and it will be disabled. But if you are outside or in public, it will enable itself.

AppLocker 2 is free if you previously purchased it first generation, but for fresh buyer, you are charged with a full price it’s anpit 1$. The developer promises that the update it’s not simply iOS 5 compatible, but features you would like.

Get AppLocker 2 from Cydia under BigBoss Repo.

Install Corona from Cydia. We have it finally, the iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak for A4 devices (iPhone, iPod touch and iPad), the tool is called Corona and it is available in Cydia. Corona is based on Pod2G works and developed by Chronic Dev team for jailbreaking your A4 devices only.

You can install Corona through your device home screen, by launching Cydia and then search for Corona, once it appears then tap Install.

If you prefer Redsn0w, then visit: How To Untether Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 On A4 Devices With Redsn0w 0.9.10b1.

I would like to introduce to those who never heard before, a Cydia app namely Untrackerd, for protecting your activity on the iPhone or other devices from being secretly tracking.

Perhaps you’ve never heard before, somehow on the iOS 4 or higher Apple placed a hidden file that can track user location and then store the data on your device that is replicated to the computer once it’s synchronized with the device.

No evidences found by the security researches that data sent to Apple or any third party organisation. However, the tracking could be simply to store your cell towers’s travelling locations for the speed connections purpose.

And the said situation was the original idea why the Untrackerd created by Ryan Petrich, a jaibreak app dev who once reported to tested Siri on the iPhone 3GS. This handy utility operates in the background and actively cleans stored location history data.

You can get this app under BigBoss repo, in Cydia. But keep in mind your devices must firstly been jailbreak.

Another great Tweak from Cydia, namely SiriOus voice dictation, this app will bring the Siri-Like functionality to jailbroken iPhone 3GS, 4 and then all iOS devices running on iOS 5, and after installed it, you will find that it’s almost similar using the Siri.

However few days ago the app was taken down from Cydia and removed from the dev’s repo due to Nuance — the company who makes the voice recognition technology used by SiriOus.

Now it’s back and can be grabbed in Cydia, simply open the unapproved store, then head to manage tab to press Source, edit it and place the apt.if0rce.com (it is a Zero not O) as the URL source.

You can learn more about SiriOus via the developer official site here.

Do you want to have a very big size phone? Then turn your iPad into mobile phone! Well the line is neither a question nor invitation, it’s real thing! Have you ever heard about a jailbreak tweak namely Phoneit-iPad? It is a Cydia tweak that will add fully functional phone to your iPad running on iOS 5 in 3G connectivity.

Ah I forgot to mention the name who get the cellular calling and texting to our jailbroken iPad 3G, they are named themselves iPhoneIslam team. Anyway it is the same name who previously brought FaceTime functionality over the iPhone 3GS.

To get this app installed to your slate, simply visit Cydia and browse the repo url: http://apps.iphoneislam.com. Wait up, it’s not a free app! It costs $19.99, such price will not be an obstacle considering what this app offers.

After it’s installed in your iPad and the activation takes online process by filling your your iPad’s serial number online. However, there is no option to change the serial number in order to use this app to another device. Once it’s activated the app will record your serial number and lock it.

Remember the PhoneIt-iPad only works for the older iPad on 3G connectivity and your iPad must already been jailbreak. How about iPad 2 on iOs 5? You need to wait for the said device is able to be jailbreaken.

So have a nice call using iPad! Like the one in this funny video:

Get this CleverPin Cydia’s tweak to juggle the iOS-based device passlock requests into a better activity. Let’s say when you are in the safe and known Wf-fi area of which you don’t feel needed to be requested for passcode, thus enabling the passcode functionality is not necessary.

But how if the passcode is still be asked in that known network? The solution to solve such problem could be CleverPin, albeit it’s not really perfect as it’s advertised but the purpose is to save your time from repetitively disable passcode while you are in the known zone.

Somehow some people complain this app is not working as it’s expected, while some users other say that this app work for sometimes, yet not every time.

However you are free to try for $1.99, and CleverPin is offering to smartly disabling passcode which it will identify which is known or unknown Wi-Fi network area, charging battery and listening music and save your time from the annoying passcode requests.
