Honestly, these functionalities are so good, you don't even realize it's from a Jailbreak. If you're not Jailbroken, these are the top things that every iPhone needs to have, not just Jailbroken ones.
#1 - Full screen Safari
If you don't have this, you are missing out. The iPhone's screen isn't nearly as small when you have this. And it's only once you've downloaded it you realize just how much of the screen Safari takes up- and it's unneccesary. The good thing about this functionality is this: shake to brig up the status bar or double tap and hold to bring up a menu. With a screen like mine, it's almost like I already have an iPhone 5.
* Add to this a Jailbreak that makes that annoying Safari Bookmark popup vanish.
#2 - Music Notifications
Simply this, when a new song begins to play, the notification badge will show you what's playing. Why didn't Apple think of this?
#3 - SBSettings
A simple swipe of the statis bar brings up everything you need. Enable 4G? Done. Change the brightness? Already done. Enable Wi-Fi? What's next?
After you been Jailbroken, it's hard to go back. I know people frown upon Jailbroken devices, but it's gotten so sophisticated now, that you don't even know the phone is Jailbroken and you simply have-
A better phone.
The iPhone itself, with it's pick-an-app interface is fine as is, but that includes limitations. A sacrifice of speed, which is probably in the fine print, but we'll save that topic for another day.
Please share your additional functions with the community! I'd love to make my iPhone even better!
*Cydia applications mentioned include: Awesome Music Controller, FullScreen for Safari, No Bookmarks, and SBSettings.
