My iPhones

I started with a 3Gs at firmware 3.0 then moved to a 4G with the lowest firmware and now at firmware 5.01. I just bought the 4Gs with the 5.01. Waiting for the Jailbreak now for the 4s.

MiniBanners Pro (Preview)

Around a week or so ago, I showed you the cydia tweak ‘Minibanners‘. Which allows you to minimise the banners on your iPhone or iPod touch, to make them look - in my opinion, significantly better. The developer of the tweak didn’t stop there though, quickly working to produce a ‘Pro’ version of the tweak, which adds significant functionality to the already excellent MiniBanners. I took it for a spin in the video below, so be sure to check it out to see all of the new features:



As you can see, the most prominent new feature is the inclusion of some really cool animations, which adds some nice polish to the banners. You can also tweak the background colour, badge colour and text colour. One of the most annoying problems that Minibanners caused, was the fact that it took away the majority of any text on your notification. So you never knew what the notification included, or was for. With Minibanners pro - this has been changed. Holding on the banner will expand the notification, allowing to see the text which it includes, so you can see what the message, tweet or other such notification is for.

MiniBanners pro will be available in Cydia in the near future. You will be able to pick it up for $1.79 from the ModMyi repo - don’t forget though, if you don’t want to pay, there is already a free version out!
