I jailbroke my 3gs last night, have Cydia and it seems to be working properly but my question is what apps should I install or what are some cool things I can do now. I mention 2010 in the title because a lot of the guides I've found are a year or more old and deal with things like video, folders, multitasking, and landscape keyboard. These are all things I've been able to do with ios 4 and the 3gs without being jailbroken.

So, any good recommendations????????

Just found Notified Pro (it's $3 and still a work in progress), but coupled with Notifier.. it's a kick butt notification system and can only get better.

Backgrounder is always good for those apps that don't support multitasking yet and for any you just prefer to leave open (Beejive IM).

SBSettings is a must, there's multiple toggles available which let you control the wifi/3g/bluetooth/rotation/autolock etc.. almost everything you need to administer your phone from anywhere. I like SysInfoPlus for process killing / general stats such as memory used and free space etc. Winterboard for customization of the look of your phone, tons of different themes available.

Those are just a few general suggestions, if you can offer some more info about what you would like to do with your phone, I can offer more suggestions.

Which free tethering applications work well with iOS 4.0.1? I haven't found one yet that doesn't crash.

Any good emulator's anyone can suggest? Are there any free ones out there?


Emulator's was one feature that my palm 755 did have that my iPhone does not.

There are emulators available, but they are near useless due to the lack of tactile response. It's possible to play on the screen, but unenjoyable when you realize you have little control.
