- handheldchimp, on 09/08/2008, -2/+26They seem to be forgetting Netshare...
I just got an iPhone 3G today, and jailbroke is mainly for Netshare...and the I Am Rich app :p - totorototoro, on 09/08/2008, -2/+21Come on, there have to be better programs out there for Jailbroken iPhones than those unexciting apps listed. Only Qik sounds remotely more unique and innovative than anything on the App Store.
- Aurarch, on 09/08/2008, -2/+20What about Intelliscreen?
http://modmyifone.com/forums/native-iphone-ipod-to ... - cerealjynx, on 09/07/2008, -2/+12Snapture quickly released the default camera app on my iphone.
Sucks you have to pay for the full version of a jailbroke app though. - aclements, on 09/08/2008, -0/+10The list is missing terminal + SSH + SSHD. I do all my work and web design remotely through a SSH session, and SSHD allows for easy tethering.
Then again, ssh with a thumbpad would suck... - deadnoob, on 09/08/2008, -0/+9I don't understand why its so great that Last.fm scobbles in the background. When I plug in my iPhone (or iPod) it does that automatically on my computer.
- cerealjynx, on 09/07/2008, -1/+9*replaced. d'oh.
- fr34k5h0w, on 09/08/2008, -0/+7Installer.app is horrible. Cydia has been improving immensely and doesn't reinvent the wheel since it uses the standard Debian package system. If you want Installer.app, it's available as a beta when you use PwnageTool or QuickPwn.

- China08, on 09/08/2008, -6/+11Cracked IPAs.
- Lewiji, on 09/08/2008, -0/+5No, it works with iPhone too. Unless last.fm just pops up a dialog box asking me if I want to scrobble to then do nothing.

OpenTTD
Gameboy Colour/GBA/SNES/some other emulators - chroko, on 09/08/2008, -2/+6I would just settle for software that doesn't take 40 minutes to back up my phone - and then crashes and I have to reboot for it to correctly recognize the phone again.
iTunes - I'm looking at you, you miserable piece of bloatware. - kylef, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4Cycorder is perfect. An update just came out allowing the video to be recorded with sound and there is no post encoding like other video recording apps in Cydia. Its a shame apple has yet to release a native video recorder.
- paloooz, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4I think Scrobbled > Scrobble
Scrobbled is just the scrobbler portion of the previous last.fm jailbreak app. It puts the last.fm scrobbler setting into your Settings menu and works great. You know it's running because there's a little icon in the status bar when it's scrobbling.
Scrobble is a seperate program with a seperate icon.
They both provide the same functionality - scrobble to Last.fm, but I think Scrobbled does it more elegantly. - jobobshishkabob, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4It's called "Illuminous". Winterboard makes editing themes so easy.
- chazburgr, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4SwirlyMMS. How the hell could you not include giving your iPhone MMS capabilities an App worth getting?
- lazeedigger, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4Paid for the full version. It's the best $7.99 I've ever spent on a piece of software.
Once you buy the premium features, it's eaaaasily 3-4X faster than the default iPhone camera. And oh, the ability to delete the crap pictures right on the screen, that's a winner for me. I was hesistating at first because I was already getting a ton of options, but boy was I glad that I got the full version, the difference is night and day.
I wouldn't be surprised if we see Apple or Nokia acquire these SnaptureLabs guys sometimes soon. It'd be a shame if we don't see these great new features on all high end smart phones soon.
AGain, cerealjynx, trust me, if you're going to spend any money on iphone apps, this is the one to get. - removesstains, on 09/08/2008, -1/+4These are barely worth bragging about.

- Xonay, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3So, still no reason to jailbreak....

- antidense, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Where is Nemussync?
http://www.nemustech.com/iPhone/NemusSync.html
It syncs your google calendar to your iphone one. - runeasgar, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2None of these are worth jailbreaking my phone.
- mrBitch, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2the iPhone / Touch backup issue is due to USB hub problems :
" ... with my iPhone 3G, syncing with iTunes has typically taken an hour or more. Scott Paterson directed me to this write-up of his, describing how his hours-long syncs were reduced to 5 minutes after switching from plugging his iPod into a USB hub to a direct connection on his Mac.
I use a USB hub, too. I tried the direct connection, and damn if it didn’t complete a full sync in five minutes. "
http://ukmac.net/2008/09/04/ipod-touch-and-iphone- ... - chroko, on 09/09/2008, -0/+2Hm. I am using a 7-port D-Link powered hub - so I had to see if that was the problem.
I unplugged every USB device I have (except the mouse, keyboard and monitor) - and tried plugging my iPhone into every USB port. It makes no difference. Backing up is still slow as hell.
System Profiler also shows the iPhone connected at 480Mbps. - digjam, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Apple needs to stop becoming an ***** and make the device more customizable and friendly. There is no reason why iphone cannot has a crappy camera, no bluetooth file exchange service, no customizable home screen and pay 200 for having a ipod in it...which is nothing but any other mp3 player.
Jobs is a control freak and wants everyone to pay for every small thing, thats why i ve tried to be away from apple products for a very long until ofcourse recently, when I finally gave in. - Echomote, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2No ScummVM on the list? Fail.
- daroots, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2ScummVM 4 Iphone is available on cydia through urbanfanatics
- cerealjynx, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Don't you mean ducking awesome?
- escapedspecimen, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2When U say restore, does that mean you can return the iphone 3g to its original factory state with no trace of jailbreaking?
Some of those apps are cool, but I don't know about being worth it...Also, can you still buy itunes app store apps while jailbroke? - Phisolo, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Qik is why I JB my iPhone. Since the App Store, I did not see much need for it, until I read about qik. 10 minutes later, I was jailbroken and uploading videos. I especially like that qik will post to my twitter and facebook status.
- xsecretfiles, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1winterboard is like summer board, but way better
Two different apps - championchap, on 09/09/2008, -0/+1Why? That's the Linux motto is it not?
- likwidfuzion, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2Cracked AppStore Apps.
- LarryLacuna, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1The only two I was interested in were intelliscreen and listen. It doesn't seem worth the effort to jailbreak my iphone just for those two.
Listen apparently identifies songs. - ohplease, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2
Why would I have to fight with Apple just to use my phone they I want to?
No thanks. Iphone users are suckers. - ButlerMonkey, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1Did my comment sound like a joke? No, I'm not kidding. If you look at the screen shot of the iPhone springboard you can see that Scrabble and GTSWR are cracked apps. In any case, I wasn't commenting at the quality of the app but I'll raise you - Asphalt 4 also sucks. In fact, I'd bet I'll never play a great racing game on the iPhone using tilt or touch controls. That also wasn't a joke in case you can't tell.
- cerealjynx, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1how do I get winterboard to see these?
- likwidfuzion, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1Yes, you simply hit the Restore button in iTunes to put your iPhone/iPod Touch to its factory state.
- docbaily, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1The I Am Rich app is actually called Am I Rich. I didn't notice it right away.
- mrBitch, on 09/12/2008, -0/+1dug you up for reporting back your results.
- sarchosis, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1I was hoping to see a tethering app on the list since we probably won't see one with att's contract as it is.
- broeks, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2How about an app that brings up my contact list in less than 4 seconds, and an sms keypad that can keep up with my thumbs?
I should have listened to my girlfriend and got a blackberry....

..................................., - ProjectGSX, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2You dont "have" to pay for the full version. Still, its important to support useful software, so if the proggy is that good then lay down the cash for it.
- HillerMylife, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2I don't think it's worth it to jailbreak my iphone for those apps.
