Default Intelliscreen or Lockscreen Info

Which and Why?

I liked L.I. but Intelliscreen is pretty sweet with the alerts and status bar stuff.

Agreed!!

There are more features in Intelliscreen that sold me. Like being able to swipe across an email and viewing it on the lockscreen. Alerts with the calendar. Some might not like the fact that it's $9.99. (I paid $19.99 when it was released early on. it came with Intellidial then)

Don't get me wrong. Lockscreen Info is nice too. But I've had Intelliscreen since shortly after it was released. I can't imagine not having it. A Majority of my interactions on the phone come from the lockscreen. I have Intellidial too. I never have to open the phone to call someone. Both apps have improved over the last few months. I know many complain about bugs and such. the only bug i really had with Intelliscreen was quickview for mail when it was first introduced. That was about the only real problem i had so far.


As for Lockscreen Info. There were some major crash issues associated with it when i played around with it. There were constant updates from the developer because it kept crashing into safe mode. I pretty much gave up on it because I had a iNav theme. I would have to use Springback because the crash would screw up my icon placements. It could have been fixed now. But i didn't want to mess with it anymore.

Doesn't Lockscreen info require you to SSH into the phone to set it up?

I was looking on cydia and did not see lockscreen info....If its the same program noted in this thread:

http://www.everythingicafe.com/forum...nfo-56141.html

Then the tutorial noted that you had to install several packages and SSH into the phone to set it up.....

Unless I just read it wrong.....

Yeah if you want really advanced themes, you need to ssh. But you should be able to just install Lockscreen Info from either the saurik source, or david.ashman.com/beta source.

Also there's plugins for weather, twitter, etc, that you can install.

The config is under the settings app.

Right now I'm leaning toward Intelliscreen, since I bought it a long while ago. I like the alerts and the status bar stuff, and the lockscreen is quite configurable.
