CallTell App Tells Who Is Calling You On iPhone is a post from: Technology News

There is a new and good app in Cydia named CallTell. With CallTell, knowing who’s calling you before even look at your phone is its idea!

And if the one is calling you are in your contacts list, then this app will be saying his name or through text messages. And this app is designed only for iPhone 3Gs and iPhone 4 and unfortunately it’s not a free app, you need to spend $1.99, but considering it’s functionality, the price is cheap!

You are also able to disable or enable this app via CallTell Page on the Setting.app. To acquire this app you need to visit Cydia and your iPhone have already been jailbroken, then touch on Search and type CallTell, it’s in BigBoss repository!

Remove All The Apps In Multitasking On iPhone iOS 4 With Remove Background Toggle is a post from: Technology News

Remove Background Toggle. If having a one tap mod to remove all the apps running on background on your iDevice running iOS 4.x have been in your dream, then try Remove Background toggle for SBSettings to realize your dream. This mod will save your time because with it you don’t need to kill all the apps manually, just one tap those apps will be killed and also will save your ram for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G users and it can be your battery lifesaver too.

I know people love multitasking yet having too many apps on background will consume too many memory and slow down your system. You can get “Remove Background” for free in Cydia, but make sure you already have SBSettings installed from Cydia before start to install this toggle to your beloved jailbroken iPhone and iPod Touch. One more thing this toggle is in BigBoss’s cabinet if you’re going to search it in Cydia!

Apple released iOS 4.0.2 is a post from: Technology News

Apple released iOS 4.0.2 to closes a PDF exploit that brings hole of potentially malicious attack to your restricted data but unfortunately the same exploit can be used for the magnificent jailbreak app JailbreakMe. So the fix to the said problem is to upgrade your current iOS 4.0.1 to the latest, which is iOS 4.0.2

The bitter consequence is you no longer be able to jailbreak your iPhone, at least, wait till iPhone Dev comes up with a new exploit. And if you have your iPhone jailbroken, you will be losing your jailbreak ability in your iphone 4, 3GS and iPod touch 3G or 2G, because the updated iOS will break JailbreakMe.

For those who you don’t want to lose jailbreak, don’t upgrade to the latest iOS, but you can at least secure your iPhone and keep your Jailbreak, by installing PDF Loading Warner app to make your browser safe against possibly malicious PDF download.

Install Ultrasn0w 1.1-1 To Improve Battery Life is a post from: Technology News

Install Ultrasn0w 1.1-1 To Improve Battery Life. This Ultrasn0w 1.1-1 is an updated release which is designed to unclock iPhone 4, 3G and 3GS and Dev Team has included the cure to betters or improve standby battery life. To install this unlocking tool, you need to go to Cydia using iPhone 3GS, 3G and iPhone 4 in order to unlock iOS 4.0.1 and iOS 4 or earlier.

The steps to Install UltraSn0w 1.1-1:

Head to Cydia
Drop this repo666.ultrasn0w.com to Cydia. Remember to use 0 (Zero) for ultrasn0w don’t use O for letter
Now it’s time to search ultrasn0w in Cydia then install it. The result your iPhone will be unlocked
Note: if you are using T-MObile USA it’s recommended to disabling your 3G first before start using Ultrasn0w.

The above are the steps if you have not installed Ultrasn0w, so if you have then what you need just updated the version.

Frankly this unclocking tool can be used if your iOS is 4.0.2, because there is no a baseband update within. But it’s pointless since no workaround yet to jailbreak both iPhone 4 or iPhone 3GS.
