iOS 7 Theme on iOS 6 and iOS 5

For a person using a jail-broken iPhone; iOS update is the worst thing to welcome. Because there exists a silent competition between jailbroken and non-jailbroken devices. We have already listed advantages and disadvantages of jailbreaking; and now you know that the choice could be either way. But one thing is sure that when there is a new iOS  update the non-jailbroken guys have the upper hand for some time. And same is the case with new iOS 7 update with coolest iOS 7 theme with it. Apple has brought a lot of changes and in fact some Cydia tweak adapted by Apple in iOS 7 made it really great looking iOS 7 theme.

And if you are on iOS 6 or lesser you might have to wait for Cydia update for iOS 7; or there is an alternate way. Which is getting all those cool iOS 7 features in your iOS 6 device by few tweaks and apps. So if you chose to go for plan B here is the list of tweaks you should get.

Things Needed To Have iOS 7 Theme:

1) iOS 7 Lock Screen:
Unlock7 is the name of the tweak which brings iOS 7 unlock interface on your iOS 6 and old devices. This tweak is free on BigBoss as well as ModiMyi repo. With this tweak you get liberty of swiping anywhere to unlock and have larger wallpaper size as well for the lock screen.

2) iOS 7 Theme:
This is useful to change the looks of your iPhone icons and folder. This can be done by installing a tweak called iOS 7 theme. Make sure you install one from pw5a29; as there are a couple of tweaks with the same name. This theme will take care of all the icon and glossy effect on the dashboards. This will also take care of settings menu changes for your device.

3) iOS 7 Font:
It is hard for a person using iOS 6 to tell difference between iOS 6 and iOS 7 fonts. But when you actually use it; you can make it out easily. After you install iOS 7 font tweak there will be an app icon on your device. Make sure iOS 7 is selected when you open that app.

4) iOS 7 Auxo Theme:
This is to have transparent app switcher effect on your jailbroken device. This is a must part of iOS theme and you should have this in your tweaks to have full iOS effects on your phone.

5) iOS 7 Calculator Theme:
This tweak is intended to have same calculating effect on your iOS 6; compared to iOS 7. Though there are a couple of minor changes in this tweak in comparison to original iOS 7 (i.e. addition of mc, m-, m+ and mr button which are missing in original iOS thing).

6) Live Wallpapers: 
For the purpose of having live wallpapers on your iPhone using iOS 6 and less you can go for vWallpaper. As iOS 7 theme is equipped with a live wallpaper setting better you have one in your basket too.

So you can have these Cydia tweaks which will give you iOS theme experience on your iOS 6 or lesser (not 100%, but satisfactory enough till you wait for iOS 7 jailbreaking).

Top Installous Alternatives

Until Hackoulous decided to shut down no one ever needed to look for installous alternatives; as that was the best cracked app resource for jailbroken iPhone. It was eldest platform for the same purpose and it served people well until it was sht down earlier this year. So now we need installous alternatives to download these iPhone apps. In fact there are plenty sources for the same purpose; we will only discuss sources whic are ranked high and appreciated well.

Best 7 Installous Alternatives

1)  Kuaiyong:
Kuaiyong is basically a chinese app which allows you to download the craked apps on your device. The best part with this app is the windows as well as the mac interface. It becomes easy for you to work on this app as you will simply connect your iPhone and get you apps via PC/Mac. The only downside is the windows version is not in English as such; but good this is the app site says they are working on it now and it will be out soon.

2) Zeousmos:
Zeousmous is also good installous alternative as the new apps are added here with the same speed as that of installous. The biggest advatnage with Zeousmus is it is extremely easy to use.

3) Pandaapp:
Pandaapp is also a great tool to have free iPhone apps. It works for iPhone as well as iPad users. This has gained very much popularity as unlike other apps which are in Chinese or the user interface is not very friendly. You can also buy paid apps for non jailbroken iPhone by Pandaapp; and for jailbroken users it will be free of cost.

4) AppCake:
AppCake is regarded among the best installous alternatives because it offers few features which are not available with other app. This app is there for more than 4 years and it is not present only for iOS devices but also for Android devices.

5) Vshare (AppVV):
This is one more gate to open the world of great iPhone and iPad apps on your jaiilbroken devices. Just like other tools to get craked iPhone apps this one works on same aim; but this one is one better as the download speed is much faster than others.

6) iFunBox:
iFunBox is highly recommended for those who want to use their iDevice and PC in synchronization. This app is supported on windows and mac platforms. You can look for the IPA file of the app you need to install and then simply send it to your device using the app in the PC/Mac.

7) HipStore:
Works just like iFunBox but the main advantage with this installous alternative is you can simply drag and drop the IPA files on your iOS device to get the apps.

So, that was pretty much about the alternate ways you can get free iPhone apps; and not by installaous.

Disclaimer: CydiaMasters does not endorse use of copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright holder. All these installous alterantives should just be used to try the apps before buying them and that is what the aim of this entire article.

Jailbreaking - Is it really worth it?

Shall I Go For Jailbreaking or not?

iPhone jailbreaking could be the biggest dilemma for any iPhone user; at least once in his iLife. And as there are so much advantages and disadvantages associated with jailbreaking this dilemma is ought to be there. But let's see it from the neutral eyes and evaluate is it good to have your iPhone jailbroken or not.

First of all let us see what jailbreak means. It means your phone is allowing access to outside apps to access your iPhone root level files. And these files could be serving various functions viz. looks of iPhone, security of iPhone etc. Now if your iPhone is jailbroken; in a way those apps can edit/add/delete files at the root level. And this is the reason why Apple does not support jailbreaking. Because as the root level access is there; iPhone functionality and security could be compromised. (and if Apple allowed jailbreaks then possibly their stores will be full with people who have broke something with some Cydia app). Apple's app store is something else where all the apps are evaluate on single app basis for security and functioning. That does not mean that all the Cydia apps are harmful; these only contribute to less than 5% of huge list of Cydia apps on the CydiaStore. Jailbreaking is legal in US and other countries; though Apple would ask you to fix something if that was caused after you jailbroke :(

Cydia apps on the other hand; have proved to given wings to iPhone. If you list top 10 utilities of iPhone more than 5 should be in a way related to Cydia. And you will be surprised to know that Apple adapted Cydia tweaks for iOS 7 to improve performance. There are some other cool Cydia apps and tweaks like iBlacklist, Springtomize 2, Zephyr. Apple did the right thing by adapting some of the all time great Cydia apps to make iOS much better. But still there are things to change and we hope they are taken into consideration by Apple.

Advantages of iPhone Jailbreaking:

1) Freedom with huge list of apps:

Cydia store is having at least one app for virtually any function you could think of on iPhone. So user gets a huge freedom to select the apps from these lists. You can get app for call recording, themes, ringtones, Wi-Fi and you tell what.

2) Free Wi-Fi Tethering:

This is one more advantage of iPhone jailbreaking if you are currently charged to use in-built tethering facility on your non jail-broken phone. Apps like MyWi allow you to have free tethering with your iPhone.

3) Fully iPhone Customization:

This is the reason why people want to go for jailbreak. Apple shackles don't allow you to customize your iPhone in any other way apart from Apple standards. So you can't have your name logo instead of carrier network, or you can't customize iPhone lock screen. Cydia tweaks and apps allow you to have full control of your iPhone. And this is the biggest advantage of iPhone jailbreaking.

4) Bridge to iOS system:

You can open the iOS system files if you ever feel the need; i.e. when you want to remove some corrupted game/app or to get apps which are not available on App Store.

Disadvantages of Jailbroken iPhones:

1) No Warranty:

As we discussed earlier Apple does not support jailbreaking your iPhone; so no warranty is applicable once you go for the jailbreaking.

Though jailbreaks are reversible and you can get back to normal iOS environment; but Apple still won't cover you under warranty once any jailbreaking was done on the device.

2) Easy Prey for Malwares:

Jailbroken phones are the easiest prey for malware and other threats. This is because proper app screening is not done in the Cydia store; like App store does it. This can be avoided though (see last paragraph).

3) You don't know how secure you are:

You really don't know how secure you are after you went in for jailbreaking. If you are picky in selecting Cydia sources and apps; you might know you are more secure than those who pick with blind eyes but you can't say you are 100% secure. And not much anti-virus support is available for iOS which adds up to the misery.

4) Software update and oh it's gone:

As Apple does not support jailbreaking; once you update iOS all your jailbreaking personalization and Cydia apps are gone. So if you are on iOS 6 now and want to upgrade to iOS 7 then you need to jailbreak again for iOS 7. There are tools available to backup your Cydia apps; but going for jailbreaking everytime you update an iOS can be headache at times.

Conclusion:

Jailbreaking is a great way to customize your iPhone but you should be careful from where you should jailbreak your iPhone and what source you should go for the Cydia apps and tweaks. There are some good source available on Cydia store which have good reviews and they have been providing with great apps and tweaks. 

As far as the jailbreaking is concerned you can get it done through free sites which have least reliability and support. So I would rather advice you to go for experienced jailbreaking providers like this; so you have peace of mind when you jailbreak your phone. Sometimes the iPhone hang and jailbreaking is not complete and Apple can't help you either. 

iPhone Live Wallpaper by Cydia Tweak

Do you want to have iPhone live wallpaper or video background iPhone which looks really great. Well this Cydia tweak is not new but it has not lost its charm either.

Which means you can set racing cars or burning flames as your iPhone wallpaper. Probably this is how your friend did it on his iPhone and you liked it :)

Vwallpaper: Cydia Tweak for iPhone Live Wallpaper

This has been possible now because the tweak is paused when you enter in other app or game.

Best Cydia Source for AirBlue Sharing

The Worst Feature in iPhone is Bluetooth:

No doubt about it whatsoever; the worst thing in any iPhone was Bluetooth connectivity. I don't why they lacked it; may be Apple did not want you to transfer songs and images so easily. I remember few of my friend literally crying as they lacked the Bluetooth connectivity. And even if Apple brought it; it was just limited to iDevice to iDevice. So many geniuses tried to come out with Cydia apps to compensate this loss and not a single Cydia source was effective and 100% satisfactory. Then AirBlue sharing came in the existence; and people appreciated it really well. This opened a new door of connectivity of iDevices. And the main advantage with AirBlue Sharing was; it was allowing to transfer data from and to other non iOS devices too.

Best Cydia Source for AirBlue Sharing:

But soon people started complaining about the Cydia source from where they got this Cydia tweak. The springboard asked for restart once you initiate Bluetooth transfer was the major issue faced with the primary Cydia source of this app. Some people also complained about other Cydia Store Popup issues with this source. And this made deletion and un-installation of this great app from so many jail-broken devices.

So why not try this Cydia source for cracked AirBlue Sharing. Please note if you have already installed versions of AirBlue sharing or AirBlue Stack please remove them before installing this:

- Add this Cydia source: http://repo.insanelyi.com on your device.

- In this source search for AirBlue Sharing V0.9.60-1 and install it.

- After the installation is finished; reboot your device.

- Now from this link get AirBlue stack 1.3.22.deb and use iFunbox or iFile to install Debian package on your iDevice. (if you are unfamiliar with this step you can Google it; it is easy step)

- Reboot your device again. Go to setting and activate AirBlue sharing now. 

- You should be able to use the app from this Cydia source without any hassle. Best of luck and happy sharing. If any issue are still observed with
