Good App for Newly-Jailbroken Novices

[Napoleon_PhoneApart]

I found this app on Cydia this morning. Called "Whats Next" (sic), this app discusses the pros and cons of jailbreaking. It also has a list and descriptons of many of the most popular and useful Cydia apps. Check it out.

I am sitting here now thinking should I, yes-no? Never been so wishy washy over something. But if I do take the plunge, looks like this will be very useful for a JB newbie. Will need all the help I can get. lol

Which iPhone do you have?

[dturner]

3Gs--3.1.2

[Napoleon_PhoneApart]

I asked because the 3GS handles jailbreaking very well with its increased memory and speed.

Just watched the video you posted on mQuickDo. That is sick. How does that differ form Backgrounder?

[dturner]

Which method would you recommend I use. This (http://www.everythingicafe.com/forum/iphone-modifications/tutorial-blackra1n-jailbreak-fix-56149.html) one or this (http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=5566) one?

Wait... what? There's an app to help you decide whether or not to jailbreak available from Cydia? Isn't it a little ex post facto by then?

mQuickDo works with backgrounder.

It allows you to perform hand gestures, which in turn allow you to do preset things.

It's well worth paying for. There is a free version on cydia, but it doesn't scratch the surface when put against mQuickDo.

All you need to do is a few swipes with ya' finger and you can swap between apps and re-launch 'backgrounded' apps. It's amazing.

This is great. I was looking for something like this on the forum. Now I have it as an App. Thanks

I also find mQuickDo hugely useful without any need for Backgrounder, which I fear may have more of an impact on battery life (though I haven't really tested).

I've found that just using mQuickDo for pure app-switching is the best thing about being jailbroken. The fact that I let it launch my five favorite apps from a 'standing start' rather than from a backgrounded state has little to no bearing on their speed of launch.

Dturner...just do it already! lol...geeewhizz. mQuickdo and SBsettings and Categories are my fav apps. Love the quick launch and not having to swipe through all the app pages.

Same here these apps work hand in hand. :ok:ok

I think I'm going to buy mQuickdo today.
