Hey guys, just jailbroke for the first time! I think I have everything I want, the one thing I've been dissatisfied with is trying to add weather to my lock screen without it looking like poo poo. Are the only apps that intelliscreen and lockinfo? I think lockinfo looks really ugly and I would love just the notification center weather below the time, but I don't want the whole notification center there (which intelliscreen does).

Or is this something that winterboard can handle?

I just don't like the look of lockinfo, or is that something that can be changed?

Try Forecast in Cydia.

It's so close to what I want but I just find it ugly. I'm really being a picky bitch designer about this.

Typophone + Typophone Weather? Typophone is a divisive tweak in the community but may satisfy your needs?

Yeah hate the look of Typophone. I think what I would ultimately like is something just like Forecast but with a little bit of a better layout. I found a winterboard theme I really really like but I'd like it to just work with stock notifications and not theme them: http://www.ifans.com/forums/imgcache/13207.png

EDIT: gently caress it just going with forecast.

I went with NCSettings over SBSettings just because the default theme is so so much better. Thankfully I only use it for airplane mode toggle.

Does anyone here use test flight to test apps? I had to reinstall their profile since jail breaking and next thing I know all of these icons are on my springboard:

No there's a bug in the new chrome. If you can you can rush to the settings before it crashes, and turn off reporting back to google. That will fix it for the time being.

edit: actually, I just tried this on Win7 and it didn't work - is it just an OSX thing?

It depends on the program I think but yes it's pretty common. You don't think devs delete by character all the time do you?


EDIT: VVVVVVVVVV Ahhhhh, touche.

THE MOTHERFUCKER BACKED UP MY IPHONE WITHOUT ASKING AND I LOST EVERYTHING ON THE MANUAL BACKUP I MADE

Check the folder apple puts the backups in. There's a chance your manual backup is still there, sometimes it keeps 2 or 3 old backups. Though if it did I think you're supposed to be able to select them via a drop down.

The Dave

Are you on a Mac or PC?

My advice would be if there are no old backup folders in the file system to try out one of those programs that can scan your HD for files that were deleted but not removed from the HD.

I'm pretty sure you could just get the 6.1.2 ispw file and hit shift + click restore and choose that firmware specifically.

Wow, FlatIcons is an amazing theme. Even has Awful already themed!

Ummm can you screen that? Just curious. Sort of working on the future design direction of Awful right now and trying to be respectful to future styles.

I just don't find it visually pleasing. There's a lot of clutter / visual static.

- Not a fan of the background but that's not so important.
- Don't like the background behind the clock, or the spacing of the clock.
- The "Tap to close all Apps" is just awful. Hurts the flow of everything, should be an icon.
- Custom carrier signals just never look good or cool
- The 3d perspective on the flat circular icons in the dock looks really, really bad. The way it's done the icons don't have any depth, at all, and just look deformed. A similar experience with better results would be the side icons being smaller but straight on.

The one thing I'm worried about is bluetooth. I have a pebble and it's night and day with jailbroken / stock iOS. Stock iOS doesn't push out most of the alerts for 3rd party apps (might be all but I don't know).

The Dave
Sep 9, 2003

What happens when you go to the usage tab in settings? Are there a bunch of apps just using up temporary space?

The Dave
Sep 9, 2003

If you install BTNotificationEnabler then all your phone's notifications will be sent to the pebble. It's great.

No no you got it. Is that the one on ithemesky? I found one but it made my lockscreen black.

Thanks! I actually think it's the one I had installed before, I just didn't have the lockscreen working right before.

Seems like no matter what I do inside of winterboard, the large weather widget icon won't change. Oddly enough though if I open the weather app it is changed.

The Dave
Sep 9, 2003

Hahaha oh no they are!

Also looks like spongeworthy has the same problem with the weather widget.

The Dave
Sep 9, 2003

The weather image used in the large widget on the lockscreen didn't change to the simplistic style.

Opening the weather app shows the icon it should be using:

Sounds like a fix is in the works. I don't know if my phone made all the theme changes it was supposed to though. Like I think it didn't change the default UI elements in apps like settings.

Basically everything that has iOS7 in the name. Is the navbar for settings supposed to be grey now? Everything else is iOS7-ified.

Is there anything for saving a streaming video file to my camera roll? I have universal video downloader, but that only saves to its own folder and when I found the video in iFile it looked like it was chopped up into a bunch of smaller files.

Basically what happened is I wanted to stream an episode of Comedians in Cars getting Coffee to my tv, which is only available on their site. I have ZappoTV to send videos to my TV no problem, but stuck on the getting the video into my camera roll.
