I’ve been developing a new tweak for iPads called Quasar. Quasar is a tweak that allows you to run your apps in windows in your iPad. Just like in a window-based operating system, you can resize, move, close or full-screen windows. Quasar is available in Cydia Store for US$9.99.

iMatte v5 HD will certainly be a theme remembered for a long time. There is 5 months in the making (full-time work, I’m dedicated 100% to this, that is making the theme and supporting it).
I first made a complete version, with ColorKeyboard, SBSettings, etc, was going to do all the extensions I support, then I realized it wasn’t up to my expectations.
I threw everything I had to the garbage bin, and restarted from scratch, and here is the result.
How can I describe iMatte without having you read this for half an hour? Impossible, so I’ll do my best!
If you enjoy and use iMatte, you can offer me a little coffee in order to keep me motivated to pursue my work! (If you don’t live in Sherbrooke, QC area, a little donation will do the same ;))

Nominate iMatte for Cydia featured themes
Technically, you can run iMatte v5 HD without any extra extension, that is beside Winterboard and it’s dependencies.
For optimal use, I highly suggest you install the following extensions:
There is so much more, Tweetbot, WhatsApp, Instagram and Foursquare are also themed.
Plus a bunch of cydia extensions like: AndroidLoader, AndroidLockXT, Anicons, BiteSMS, CallBar, ColorBanner, -Deck, Dock, Folder Enhancer, FolderIcons, Firewall IP, iPodControls, Move2Unlock, MusicBarExtended, PowerCenter Pro, QuickDo, Scrollingboard, SlideAway, SnowCover 4, Twitkafly, WeeToolBox, Zeppelin
Happy that you asked! Sure there is!
By now, you should already be downloading and installing iMatte!
And there is so much more to it…
*** TO ALL MODDERS, if you need anything that I didn’t included in the package to create a mod for iMatte, let me know. I will provide you with whatever you need to do your thing. Thank you much!
I’d like to thank @Zooropalg, this guy may have never released a theme of his own, but he certainly contributed to the success of many themes, iMatte included. If you would ever leave buddy, you would be dearly missed by many. I’m sure if you ever release a theme, it will be a monster success!
Hope you all enjoy iMatte as much as I enjoyed making it!

The file is /Applications/biteSMS.app/QR-theme.plist (this file is not there as we don’t want to overwrite it for each release).
You need to create it for your own purposes. However there is a QR-theme.example for reference purposes).

A new tweak is now available in the CydiaStore: RingerX VIP
RingerX VIP offers you many outstanding options to configure the ring and vibrate behaviour for calls and messages (SMS, MMS, iMessage).
It contains an Activator-enabled Temporary Mute feature which allows you to mute your iPhone for a defined period of time after which all tones are turned back on again. You’ll never forget to re-enable the ringer (switch on the left side of your iPhone) after a meeting or going to the movies because RingerX VIP automatically takes care of that.
RingerX VIP includes extremely useful features for individual contacts and groups and can seperately be set for calls and messages.
The following features can be assigned to individual Contacts or Groups
Automatically silent your iPhone when a certain contact calls. This is almost like blacklisting the contact/group but you’ll be able to see who calls/ed.
Set a custom volume for when the ringer is turned on. Make it ring at a low volume when an annyoing person calls.
Do you want to be reachable all the time by people such as your boss or girlfriend? Set RingerX VIP to ignore the ringer switch and always ring; you can even set a custom volume for each instance.
In addition, you can assign custom ring and textones to groups.
RingerX VIP fully integrates into iOS. The settings are located in the contact/group view of the Phone and Contacts application, so there’s no configuration needed from within Settings or through a SpringBoard application. Furthermore, icons in the rows with the contact names will indicate if you have important settings enabled.
Once installed, there will be a section in your Settings applications which allows to quickly disable RingerX VIP and offers additional information on usage.
A SBSettings Toggle is included.
For Groups
For Contacts and Groups
For users having no service after using sbsettings on your 5.x CDMA device, it is not caused by sbsettings but instead by the 3g toggle.
To fix it:
1) Disable the 3g toggle in the more app (don’t use it)
2) go to settings, general, reset, and reset your network settings.
3) Reboot.
I am pushing a new sbsettings with a 3g toggle that should detect and not run on CDMA. I don’t have a 4s on CDMA so I can only test my iphone 4 Verizon which it seems to work ok there.
Note: The greenpois0n website is too busy and down at the time of this writing. Wait and be patient.
Today, Chronic dev released Greenpois0n for your A5 devices (iPhone 4s and ipad 2). You can now do an untethered jailbreak on these devices assuming you are running either 5.0 or 5.0.1. If you are not running those FW versions, get onto one ASAP before Apple closes the update window and releases 5.1. As soon as Apple releases 5.1, you can expect that you cannot restore 5.0.1 again and unless you’re already on 5.0.1 you will be unable to jailbreak.
To jailbreak, just download the jailbreak app from greenpois0n web site (called “absinthe”), and run it. At the moment it is released only for OSX (Mac) but will soon have a windows version followed later today.
A short word on how the JB will work. You will attach your device to your mac, run the app, and wait. When it tells you to do something on your device, you can disconnect it and go run the web link “absinthe”. This will attempt to contact the greenpois0n web site and finish the jailbreak. The jailbreak will be completed when the device resprings and you find cydia. If the greenpois0n web site is down when you try to run the icon on the device, instead you can go to settings, vpn, and click “on”. The error “A configuration error occurred” should appear, shortly after the device should respring jailbroken.
Note: for those having problems, these steps worked for me on my “stubborn” device:
1) After the JB fails to do anything, reboot the iphone
2) Close absinthe on your mac
3) Rerun absinthe and it should detect the device and say that it noticed a jailbreak attempt failed and say it has “recovered”.
4) Reboot the device again, and close absinthe again
5) Rerun the jailbreak tool, it will rerun as it did in the first place.
6) After it’s done and says to tap the “jailbreak icon” do not do that! Instead go to your device, load settings, and click the “vpn” setting to “on”. Wait. The device should pop up and error and then respring about 30 seconds after the error.
7) If the device never resprings in step 6, repeat the steps above again until it works.

Apple is due to release 5.1 soon. When that happens, they will stop signing 5.0.1. This means you will only be able to restore to 5.1. 5.1 breaks the upcoming jailbreak. If you are currently a 4s owner or an ipad 2 owner, you will want to get your device to 5.0.1 ASAP. This way when the jailbreak is released, you will be able to use it. If you do not restore to 5.0.1 now, in a few days when 5.1 is out, you may never be able to get from 5.0 to 5.0.1 and only option will be to wait again.
Music Controls Pro just got another update, and with it, I’m pushing the reset buttons on the five-day trials! So come back and see what’s new!
So what is new?
