  • How To: Exit All Apps on iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad

    With iOS4 Apple introduced its revolutionary new take at multitasking. The multitasking on the iPhone 4 is a pleasure to use but the problem is that over time a lot of apps become clustered up in the background. The only way to close them was to select each single app and exit it from the multitasking menu. However, as it turns out there is a MUCH easier way to close all of the back ground apps with one single click.

    The following is a guide on how to exit all apps on an iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch or an iPad.

    Step One

    Open up Cydia from the springboard

    Step Two

    Navigate to the search tab and search for Remove Background.

    Step Three

    Tap on the Remove Background package and install it.

    Step Four

    Remove Backgound will now appear on your springboard.

    Step Five

    Now, there are two possible ways to use Remove Background to exit all apps on the iPhone.

    Activator

    1. Launch the RemoveBG app and go to the activator menu.

    2.  Select the activation method from the many available to activate RemoveBG and exit all your background apps. For this example I’m going to use the volume keys.

    SBsettings

    This method is more convenient and recommended by us.

    1. Add the Repo http://repo.hackyouriphone.org to Cydia.

    2. Install the package Remove Background SBsettings.

    3. Now you can simply swipe on the status bar, and all your toggles will accessible from anywhere on the phone. To exit all apps you simply have to press the RemoveBG button and all the open apps will be exited.

  • How To: Jailbreak iPhone 3GS And iPhone 4 on iOS 4.3.3 Using Redsn0w (Windows)

    The following are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPhone 3GS or 4 on iOS4.3.3 with Redsn0w on Windows.

    The complete guide after the break.

    Before updating your phone to 4.3.3, you need to keep in mind that an unlock is not yet available for the baseband on 4.3.3. To unlock a phone on 4.3.3 you will either have to update using a custom firmware which doesn’t update your baseband or you will have to update to the 06.15 iPad baseband if on the 3GS. While 06.15 may render the phone unlockable, updating to it comes with its fair share of problems such as:

    1. There is no way to come back down from 06.15, and there’s no hiding the baseband version from Apple. You’ll be voiding your warranty in a very obvious way.
    2. If some future baseband comes out with a critical fix, you won’t be able to update to it if it remains down in the 05.xx sequence (then again, you wouldn’t update to it if you wanted to keep your unlock anyway).
    3. Starting with FW 4.2.1 if you have 06.15 on your iPhone you won’t ever be able to restore to stock firmware (it will fail). You’ll need to only restore to custom IPSWs (then again, if you’re an unlocker you should already be doing that).
    4. There are reports that 06.15 may disable your GPS. The iPhone Dev-Team is currently working on a fix.

    Tools You’ll Need:

    iPhone 3GS 4.3.3 Official IPSW. Click Here.

    iPhone 4 4.3.3 Official IPSW, Click Here.

    Redsn0w 0.9.6rc16. Click Here.
