frumpsnake posted:SuaveHD isn't a bad theme, but once you theme your device you enter the world of hunting around for and/or making replacement icons for all your apps. Is anybody working on updating Winterboard? It's kind of absurd that themes are so universally loved among the JB community but the tool for doing it is now fully 2 OS point versions behind (unless I've missed an update).

BiteSMS is really winding me up now. A couple of days ago my free trial ran out so now it's running with ads. That's fair enough, but at pretty much the same time it now runs unbearably slow. From my Springboard if I tap on the icon to bring up the app and send a text, it will just show the message history screen for about 10 seconds before I can interact with the keyboard.

frumpsnake posted:(theme chat and pictures) That looks wonderful. What theme is that one? e: I've got an issue where when I use winterboard and apply a theme it overrules my springboard wallpaper. Happens whether or not I have the "User Wallpaper" option checked in the theme section. Anyone know a fix for this? I've been using the Suave HD theme.

Baram posted:That looks wonderful. What theme is that one? The theme itself is specifying a wallpaper (it has nothing to do with any other option selected). You will have to dig into the theme's files and remove the wallpaper part. I'm sure the dozens/hundreds/thousands of themes with Wallpapers on Cydia made sense on the original iPhone and iPhone 3G, but it's pretty stupid for those things to exist any more.

I understand some people want to have their phone look unique, but this is how I feel about themes: who do I want designing my phone's appearance, some of the best designers in the world who are being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by Apple or a 16-year-old on deviantArt making GBS threads out themes in a pirated version of Photoshop? There are really only two or three that are even passable, and sometimes I want to change that picture in the op so people don't just think jailbreaking = pretty themes, but I don't know what else to put there.

SBSettings? PerPageHTML? Maybe even something like a biteSMS notification. Just throwing some ideas at you. But yeah, some of the coolest things can't even be shown in a screenshot, like Zephyr, GV extensions or the no accessory splash mod.

One of the interesting things about UIs is that when something happens too fast, consumers don't appreciate it. For instance, when you load up a list on a webpage, if the page loads up too fast, customers don't believe the results listed are valuable. When there is some lag and "busy" signals associated, the results are considered more valuable. I suspect this is why the animation for iOS is the way it is - it provides people with that sense of movement within the interface.

The icon wiggling when you move something is pretty good too. Use it at a fast speed for a week, then move it back to normal. It's ridiculous how slow it seems.

TACD posted:Not suggesting you're lying but do you have a link to a study on this? I love this kind of thing and would love to read about some of the research. I don't have a study unfortunately, but its similar to what's being said here: http://www.useit.com/papers/responsetime.html I like to think about it like this: When I press a button in a game, if it doesn't display to me the button press (because its too fast), I don't feel like I'm manipulating the UI. When I press a button and it does display the button press, then I feel like I manipulated the environment. When I press a button and it takes forever to do anything, I get frustrated and throw away my Droid Eris. Its really more about compromise than anything. With the speedup application, I find that 1.6x is usable, but anything faster makes me frustrated and anything slower is just stupid.

Not sure if this is an iOS problem or a jailbreaking problem but sometime today, seemingly randomly, the little location services icon appeared in my status bar and hasn't left since. I've rebooted the phone, closed out all running processes, and even done a DFU reset and it's still there. Any idea why it's happening? Edit: Just realized that the "local weather" section of the weather app is missing. Strange. coldplay chiptunes fucked around with this message at 05:20 on Feb 9, 2012 |

I'm still working out the bugs of incorporating Lockinfo into iOS5 the way that I like it. As it is now, I'm using the default notifications, but keeping the stocks, calendar, and weather plugins on the lockscreen and shelving all the other notification plugins on the infoshade. This is working well for me. The only downside is that when I receive a new text/fb push/etc the sound is played twice, making me think two notifications were received. Can you guys think of any setting I can adjust to address this? Feels like it should be something simple, but I'm missing it.

Anyone ever experience issues updating App Store apps? I've had this issue for quite some time now, but have just ignored it. Unfortunately now there's some updates I want, but I can't update any of my apps. The update process begins, but never finishes. It's like iPhone blue balls. Initiating the app update process via the App Store or via iTunes makes no difference. The only way to get an update is to uninstall an app and re-install it.

furushotakeru posted:Infinity blade refuses to update on my iPad no matter how many times I tell it to. Haven't cared enough to worry about it, really. It's a bit of a piss off, because I have to lose my app data to update an app. Now sure, I can backup the data with DataDeposit, but who's to say that the saved data from the current version of the app is going to be 100% compatible with the new version? Sure, maybe it'll work the first time you load the app, but maybe that "bad" data is a ticking time-bomb that ends in misery.

Rick Rickshaw posted:Anyone ever experience issues updating App Store apps? I still have this problem, and the only way I've found to get App Store updates to finish is by respringing into Safe Mode before I initiate the process. Otherwise my phone never finishes installing the updates and resprings itself periodically for no discernible reason.

Drives me nuts because every time I look at her phone, I see 35 updates available. Of course it drives her more nuts because she can't update Diner Dash. Sometimes signing in and out of the AppStore works 24% of the time.

So here's a question. I just picked up a new iPhone 4S, and on my old 3GS I had some sort of tweak or app that made little symbols appear in the upper right hand corner near the battery if I had missed a text or an email. Even though apparently there's an in depth notification system in iOS 5, I can't seem to figure out how to make this work. I'm assuming I need to download something but I can't remember what it was. I looked through some of the notification style apps on Cydia, but nothing quite like what I had. I mean it's pretty simple and straightforward, but damned if I can't find it.

Bitesms will display a little indicator when you have an unread text, not sure about email.

OpenNotifier Last time I had it installed on 5.0.1, it caused crashes to Springboard. YMMV.

Meant to check back to see if there was a fix for it, since I didn't want to buy it yet, incase the behavior to stays the same. But forgot all about it till you mentioned it.
