Pastiebot: A Twitlonger Replacement for Tweetbot
Filipo Bigarella, the man behind tweaks like Springtomize, CleverPin & FBPhotoSave etc. has come up with yet another tweak for Tweetbot, everyones new favourite twitter client.
We loved the Twitlonger for when we needed to say more than 140 characters to express ourselves. But in an update to Twitter for iPhone last year, support for twitlonger was removed completely. Bigarella has been working on the same idea for the all new shiny & glossy Tweetbot client for iPhone & iPod touch. Pastie for tweetbot adds an extra button to the user-interface while you compose a tweet longer then 140 characters. If triggered, the tweet is sent to pastie and a link is posted with your partial tweet.
Here are some screenshots:
The tweak has been through all the development stages and the beta version is now in hands of the testers. You can download the beta version from Cydia via the iSpazio repo for free.

Greenpois0n Jailbreak Tool Release This Sunday 10/10/10
ModMyi has just informed us that the developers behind the newest jailbreak, greenpois0n, have informed the world of it’s estimated arrival date of October 10th, 2010.
Developer Joshua Hill, aka p0sixninja, recently tweeted “Things have progressed to the point where we don’t expect anymore roadblocks. ETA for greenpois0n is 10/10/10 at 10:10:10AM”.
Dev-Team SHAtters an iPod Touch 4G
The Dev-Team recently updated their blog saying that they have begun testing the exploit developed by @pod2g, into a beta version of PwnageTool to get a head start on things.
Those of you with Apple’s new iPod touch 4G, or those of you who bought another recent device after the jailbreakme.com exploit was closed, have probably heard about a brand new exploit called SHAtter. The exploit (and payload) was developed by @pod2g a few months after @p0sixninja of the Chronic Dev Team discovered the crash. That team is hard at work bringing you a brand new tool to make use of the exploit. It’s not the sort of thing that can be developed overnight so please be patient while waiting for any announcements from them.
In the meantime, we’ve put @pod2g’s exploit into a beta version of PwnageTool to test the waters. The SHAtter exploit was enough to convince the iPod touch 4G to restore to our custom IPSW. The successful result is shown below! It’s all working: customized Preferences to show battery percentage, Cydia, root shell…the works!

Read More3 Must Have Cydia Tweaks
1. qTweeter.
qTweeter will change the way you tweet. It connects not only with your twitter account but also with your FaceBook, making it easy to post an update from anywhere in iOS. Simply swipe down from the status bar to activate qTweeter. You are then given the option to post your update with music, video, pictures, links and so much more. After you use qTweeter you will not want to change to your previous twitter app. That being said it doesn’t allow you to view updates by people you are following but then again it was made to do what it does best, update your Twitter and FaceBook!
Price: $3.99

2. Grid lock
Grid lock is a very smart tweak that allows you to place icons anywhere on the springboard that you please, much like the Android OS. It does have some annoying glitches at times but if you can work through those then this is an amazing tweak. It helps to make themes that would other wise require iBlank or Iconoclasm a lot easier to put together and use.
Price: $.99

3. Quicklock 2
There isn’t much to say about Quicklock 2. It does exactly what it says, locks your iDevice quickly. After installing, an icon will be added to your springboard that locks your iDevice upon opening. And that’s pretty much it. One complaint that could easily be fixed by the user with basic knowledge of ssh, was the icon for Quicklock 2 displayed as a plain white block. This didn’t seem to happen with everyone but it can be a bit annoying. This tweak is especially useful if you have a defective sleep/wake button and Apple wont replace your iDevice.

Read MoreMyStrings 2.0 Coming Soon!
MyStrings was released a few months ago back in early June. There have been many features added since then including icon fonts, colors, and sizes. Toggles for battery percentage, and ability to edit the carrier. Also there have been some support updates, to allow it to work on every device!
2.0 has been being worked on for awhile, and is getting very close to release. There are just a couple more features going into this tweak, and some support issues being fixed and everyone will be able to get a hold of the new and improved MyStrings 2.0!
Some features that have been added into this release is FULL language support, a few more apps have been added to the “Applications” section, it has been completely remade so that it has device specific codes, so that devices like iPads, and iPod Touchs dont have the “iPhone Only” sections. There were also other specification codes added in so that if you dont have one of the apps in the “Applications” section it wont show up, which makes it run faster because it doesnt have to load up the extra, unneeded applications.
There is no set date for release, but follow the developers @MarksiPodTouch and @Nazaroth to keep updated with this tweak!
