Recommended Posts

I'm hearing may people say "oh I'm gonna jail break 3.0 when it comes out!!!" First off why? No one knows the entire feature list of 3.0. We only got a preview, theres more to come. There might not be a reason to jail break this time around, other then themes, and even the themes arnt thaty great,

I'm hearing may people say "oh I'm gonna jail break 3.0 when it comes out!!!" First off why? No one knows the entire feature list of 3.0. We only got a preview, theres more to come. There might not be a reason to jail break this time around, other then themes, and even the themes arnt thaty great,

My Jail break reason = Freedom.

^ OMG, Very VERY NICE. Now thats my reason. And Chris I understand exactly what you mean, but im pretty sure most can tell you, Apple is not ready to allow graphical customization. Thats why I would Jailbreak, also benefits like apps that you cant find on the app store. Theres a few I breifly saw on a friends phone that the app store doesnt have. Like a app that made it so his DVR was connected to his phone thru IP. Now, he could view any timers and create new ones and etc. I found that cool becuase I have a DVR in my room and would love to record stuff on the fly that I forget about.

Also, the above post makes me want to jailbreak for sure no questions asked.

So, Ji@nBing if you are kind enough to let me know theme, dock, etc. Whatever was used to create your iPhone layout like that, I will be greateful. I just want to adopt that workspace, ill probably end up finding another theme if its possible but those icons and the mac like desktop on the right side, perfect. Something I love about macs and on the iPhone that would be awesome. And press the Apps icon to get all your icons is a plus. Im also guessing the Apps screen looks nice.

Hey. Most of the icons I used are from the Oxygen icon theme. Just google "oxygen refit" and you'll find them. The folder icons are Maji SE. You can have everything moved over to the right like that by using the app "iblank" available on Cydia. You can make folders using "categories", also available on Cydia. I don't remember where I got the dock from, I think it was some Leopard theme.

Hope that helps.

Of course they won't work yet. A BETA is known to be unstable and its code could be changed in the future. Saurik would be stupid updating Cydia now as changes in the code could disable the application. Those applications ( Cydia, OpenSSH, ... ) will work once the software/firmware is released.

yeh i didnt complain at all just wanted to share what i learned :) i do understand concept of beta ;)

ps: oh and i meant that i went back to 2.2.1 ofc.

I hope they allow the changing of the sms sounds without having Jailbreaking being the only option to be able to do this.

Agreed. I've never seen a phone limit what sounds you can have for text messages, yet many of the useless ringtones would go good for sms alerts.

The only one that's decent is "electronic", and thats because its the only one I can hear when I'm out.

    • I don’t get why if I bought the game on the last get I needed to pay $40 to upgrade to the new version in the first place and people who love the game and play a lot would have upgraded already so this is just PR and a chance to grab new players who forgot the game long time ago I think
    • The term "use" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. "Use" can mean opening ChatGPT occasionally to ask for the definition of a word or information about a specific topic. If you frame the question around how many people use it as a daily driver in their work or personal lives, that number is a lot smaller. Those are the people who pay for AI. Nearly everyone else is happy to use it for free, but doesn't see enough value in it to pay for it.
    • No support for Windows Hello!
    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
