Don't Often Check Cydia? Here's What You've Been Missing....


Submitted by Kevmau5; May 17, 2012


If you don't refresh your Cydia updates as much as you should....You've missed some nice updates.  Let's take a look at what you've missed...

   DoNotDisturb
This is a FREE tweak by developer Rudolph lichtner and does exactly as the title says. After installing, you will have a switch on your notification center dropdown enabling you to turn off any sounds for notifications you may recieve during the night whilst you are asleep. Flipping the switch again returns the notifications to normal for everyday use.

    Autoprotect 
Another Free tweak for your phone. This time, it makes it easier to access your phone if you have passcode protection. When you install the tweak, go to settings and find autoprotect. From here you can insert the name and address of a WiFi network, and once connected to it, you'll never need to type in the passcode again.


For example: Say you put in your Home WiFi address, so the family can access the device. Well, when the device connects to the network it will not ask for a password to get into the device. Whereas if you are not connected to your home network, it WILL ask for a passcode. So really it stops any unwanted people from accessing it.

   Rainboard
A fun little tweak that doesn't do much except put icons on your screen with rain in them. Change the size of the icons and the length of time they stay for in the stock settings app. You can also make the rain go up??

  Volumecolor
Another fun but not so useful tweak that, again, does as the name suggests. There are many different colours to choose from and you can increase or decrease the opacity (transparency) of the volume popup.

  Chip
If you are looking to customize your notification centre in any way then here is one of the 'must have' tweaks I would recommend! I won't go into too much detail, but here's a little insight of what it has (possibly more with future updates):
Change the banner color. Change it from one solid color to another OR have a gradient color (Blue fades to yellow or whatever you choose). Change the text color in the banner also.

Animation entrance and exit: Change how the notification enters the screen and exits with some pre-set preferences EG. Fading in  /  Enter from left to right  /  Bounce....and more!

Sounds. You can customize the sound of a notification with some of the stock ringtone sounds (possibly a custom one you have made....but i don't have any of them to test).

This one costs $1.99 but is worth it, with the continued support for it throughout the IOS upgrades.

Chip is MY top tweak this time round. Any I missed that people should know about?

Yeah, I like that one. I'm always forgetting to turn my pass code on when I go out. And my friends are bastards for 'fraping' and whatnot.
