Infinidock seems to work just fine on my 5s 7.04. I installed it and then immediately it upgraded to another version and I have my 5 icon dock.

Woo-hoo, one more of my most missed tweaks to cross off the list. It even put my icons back in the order I wanted.

Lot's of stuff seem to be getting 64bit support pretty quickly.

So far I'm rocking:

CCToggles (Might try a different variation out)
Dockshift (To make the dock more transparent)
F.lux
HiddenSettings7 (just to make the animations swifter)
Slide2Kill 7 (swipe down in task switcher to kill all apps)
SwipeSelection
Virtual Home (loving amazing on a 5s. A quick tap on the finger sensor and it acts as a home press, long hold goes to app switcher).
Zeppelin (removes carrier text).


Not bad for substrate just being updated.

Virtual Home is pretty nice. I already had Activator set to lock my screen when I double tapped the home button so now a cool side effect of having those two tweaks together is that I can lock/unlock using just the touch thing.

Has anyone with a 5 who has jailbroken recently had any speed issues? I re-jailbroke this weekend and suddenly I'm getting loving awful speeds, even while connected to LTE.

Tried using the speedtest app on my wife's 5S and it is speedy as hell while mine barely registers .5mb/s

Were you tethering or anything else bandwidth intensive? If you've got a grandfathered unlimited plan on AT&T and you hit some amount (forget what it is) of data usage they'll throttle your speeds down until the next billing cycle.

Hah, didn't think I came anywhere near it but apparently I hit 6.5gb of data, thankfully things roll over this weekend so I guess I'll deal with it.

Yeah I've never felt so lukewarm about a jailbreak. All I really care about any more is the tethering and I use that so infrequently I still haven't bothered to jb my 5S.

Probably won't bother at all with my iPad.

I just want biteSMS but I honestly don't even think it's worth all the hassle. With the few dot released for 7 it's been so nice to just hit update and not have to worry about anything.

It's really not all that exciting compared to when I jailbroke my old rear end iPod Touch. The only thing I actually really want improved upon is app sharing like Android or at least to change default apps like google maps and f.lux which I could never get on my Android phone. With all the good things I've been hearing about 7.1 I'll most likely upgrade to it even if the JB doesn't work for it. It's not worth the quirkiness of some of JB issues. For instance right now my Weather app now reports my zipcode as a city 30 minutes away from me, even if I manually enter in my zipcode.

It's not allowed. The option is in Settings, but trying to toggle it produces a "Contact your carrier" message.

Does anyone know of a guide on what the various settings do on hidden springboard settings? I'd like to know how to increase animation speed or increase the parallax effect but I don't know how all the options work together.

Easiest way to change animation speed is to go down to Animation Overrides, turn on Slow Animations, and change the Slow Factor to something less than 1. I like mine at 0.8.

Parallax effect looks to be separated, for example to change it on the homescreen, do Parallax > Homescreen wallpaper > "Distance from screen" and make that number more negative. (Default is -100, try -1000).

I haven't seen any guide, this is just from my own tinkering. Just be careful because I've read that there are options that will put you in a boot loop so you'd have to restore.

Thanks for that, I don't really like parallax that much, even increasing the effect doesn't really do it for me but the animation speed thing works great.

There's one on the opening page of Cydia in the featured apps list. Pending update so I can't see the price, but it gets you $2 off iFile, which will be necessary to do much with the downloaded files.

You're talking about Safari Download Manager, right? It's $5.00 according to Cydia. I was looking for a free tweak but all the one's I've found don't seem to work very well.

You could use one of those "downloader" apps in the App Store and just set a bookmark to its data location in iFile…

A little clunky but it's what I'm doing until Safari Download Manager is updated.

So, after that 6.1.4 JB I have one crazy annoying behavior with all cellular data settings being reset to nothing every time the phone registers on the network. So now I can't drive through a tunnel or use an elevator without having manually enter APN, login and password afterwards. What the hell and what can I do to fix this?

Still having this problem? Any more information on phone and carrier?

Resolved it by installing p0sixspwn 1.3-2 from Cydia. The phone is a 5 on Russian MTS. By the way, noticed another unexpected thing with most of purchased music in the library being either unplayable or missing. Deleting and redownloading works, though, so not a big problem here. Oh, and also seems that the phone is doing it's FaceTime activation thing on every bootup now, but I can live with that too.

DockShift is another option which in addition to removing the background gives alternate effects options. I emailed him and asked if he could make the tweak do the same thing to folders and he said he's going to take a crack at it.

I have an iPhone 4S 64GB which was jailbroken on 6.1.2. I tried to update to 7.0.4 via iTunes and it failed, so I did a new install to 7.0.4, restored the backup, then jailbroke.

My problem now is that in iTunes it's showing 17GB of space on the phone taken up by 'other' and it won't let me sync my music because of it. When I go on the phone itself under Settings > General > Usage, it says 49.4GB used and 7.8GB available.

Does anyone know why it's showing 17GB of 'other' storage used and how I can remove it?

Edit: I ssh'ed into my phone and did the following:

AnjowPhone:/ root# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/disk0s1s1 1.9G 1.1G 784M 59% /
devfs 27K 27K 0 100% /dev
/dev/disk0s1s2 58G 50G 8.0G 87% /private/var

So it looks like it may be iTunes that is wrong about the usage...

I don't have it enabled and to enable it I apparently have to pay £21.99...

When I plug the phone in it initially shows there being 7GB free (before it has categorised the storage usage), but once it's finished loading it now shows 29GB over capacity (it was 10GB 30 minutes ago!).

Other usage fuckery

FWIW, I experienced some pretty odd behavior with 'Other' when restoring/sync data to my newly jailbroke iPhone. For instance, the entire data on the phone would turn to 'Other' and I wouldn't be able to sync any Apps because iTunes claimed my phone had no free space. The iPhone said it had 25GB+ free. I unplugged, closed iTunes, replugged, opened iTunes and I think it worked normally after that. Not sure if that's what you're experiencing but thought I'd share this in case it helps.

iTunes could be misreporting space taken.

edit: I also remembering mashing the transfer purchases and the sync button a couple times to get it work as well. But like I said, it wouldnt sync until I unplugged and replugged the phone in cause it thought the data was full. This was latest iTunes on latest OSX.
