Some people are complaining that iOS 5 is bringing laggy cover flow in their music library when the iDevice is titled in a landscape position causing the albums to lag when going through them swiftly, this is especially annoying if you like surfing for your favorite albums in the landscape position and hate the lag, there is a simple tweak in Cydia which helps rectify this issue and its very simple to install and requires no configuration afterwards.
Smooth Cover Flow is a great tweak which helps resolve an issue with the lag in navigating through album arts while the iDevice is in portrait mode so you can find your favorite albums in the most awesome way possible but in iOS 5 it caused a small issue which caused the album art to stutter when going through them swiftly.
A handy tweak from Cydia will help rectify this issue and of course can only be used on Jailbroken iDevices and greater than iOS 5 (since the issue is non existent on iOS4)
Step 1.
Go to Cydia and navigate to “Search” and search for the below term without the quotation marks ( ” ” )
“me.devbug.smoothcoverflow”
and click on the single result bearing the icon of a power drill
Step 2.
On the top right of the screen choose “Install” and followed by “Confirm” which will again be on the top right of the next screen and wait for Cydia to download and install the tweak. Once installed it will prompt you to “Restart Springboard” and you are done. Your device will do a soft reset and take you back to your lockscreen and now all you have to do is unlock your screen and go to your Music and tilt your iDevice in landscape to see the smooth cover flow.
I hope you found this tweak helpful and I hope you can leave a comment on whether this tweak was helpful to you or not.
