First post!
I'm fresh in from webOS, may it rest in peace. Got a 4S on Sprint and jailbroke on day 3 or 4.
Activator is awesome and while I'm only 3 or 4 days into jailbreak, so far I've got it configures thusly:
-Triple tap home unlocks or if phone is already unlocked activates M+ courtesy of IntelliscreenX.
-Double click 'on/off' turns flashlight on/off
-Double tap home activates multiflow (which I have configured to expose, not cardview, despite coming from webOS! Ha!)
-Single tap home also launches multiflow when at the home screen.
-Swipe in from left launches camera
-Swipe in from right activates last app
-Short hold volume up activates music controls. This behaves really interestingly. If I do NOT have music already playing or paused, it launches the music app. If I DO have music playing or paused it brings up the little controls at the bottom of the screen (forgive me, don't know my iPhone terminology yet). Anyway. I like the way this behaves.
-I left the default swipe the status bar to activate sbsettings, but that's subject to change as I more often access settings from the Intelliscreen top drawer.
Anyway. Diggin' it. And I'll withhold my big webOS vs. iOS tirade for now. I do have some ideas for Activator though. It (kinda) reminds me of Mode Switcher from the webOS homebrew scene, which in my opinion is an equally remarkable piece of programming (but much more difficult to use than activator). Let's see, I'm new so I'm guessing it won't let me post links right? Here goes: http:/ /ww w.webos-internals.o rg/wiki/Application:ModeSwitcher
Anyway. I think it could be said that Activator, much like Mode Switcher, works with triggers and effects. Triple tapping home triggers M+. The things is, with Activator all the triggers are manual, physical input: "tap that to do action x" "swipe this to do action y". I wonder if the dev has considered triggers that DON'T involve physical input, such as "When phone becomes connected to wifi SSID A, perform action B" or "At so-and-so o'clock perform action C". Just a thought. Is there anything like that that already exists for iOS?
Anyway some more... Didn't set out for my first post to be a novel. I expect a few TL;DR responses, heh. But it's safe to say I'm enjoying my sexy new iPhone and that I'm glad this community exists, because I've already learned a lot from it even before my first post.
Thanks all!
