**Note: “SB” settings stand for SpringBoard settings.

To access your SBSettings home, simply swipe your finger at least 50 pixels across the status bar.What will come down is this:

Here you can right away see 4 main options, Brightness, Processes, SSH and Wi-Fi.

The brightness tab is pretty straight forward, simply press the button and adjust your brightness on the fly, without have to exit whatever you are doing, go to the settings application, waiting for it to load… etc.

The processes tab allows you to view all applications running in the background, so if you find that your device is running a lot slower than it should be, try ending a few useless processes this should make a lot more memory available and allow you to continue using your iPod Touch/iPhone nice and smoothly. There is also a “Free Up Memory” button, will free up any available memory to make your device faster.

The SSH button lets you toggle your SSH connection. If you have no idea what SSH is, or how to use it, go to this tutorial. Disabling this feature can help save battery power, which is great when you are already running low.

And finally, Wi-Fi. Same as the SSH button, you will toggle your connection to the internet, which will save more battery than just by disabling SSH.

Now, for the smaller icons, there is: More, Refresh, Dock, Respring and Power.

By clicking on “More”, you will close the SBSettings drop down menu and open the actual application. you can now adjust a lot more that just brightness.

Firstly, is the themes pages. Yes, you can apply themes to your SBSettings menu, there are 4 main ones already given, however Cydia offers a wide array of themes created by other people.

Then there is the “Set Toggles” tab. The name of the tab is pretty self-explanatory. You can add to the 4 main toggles. A very useful one to have is “Fast Notes”, for when how have to take something down real fast, but don’t have a pen or a piece of paper and loading the notes app would just be too long.

Next on the list is “Dock Applications”. As I mentioned before, on your SBSettings drop down menu there is a Dock button, here is where you select the applications you wish to be placed there. Let’s say you have an application that you don’t use, but still sometimes need to access and find it a waste of space on your home screen, you can select that application so that it goes to your SBSetting dock. By doing so, it is out of sight, but can still easily be accessed.

The “Hide Icons” tab lets you select apps that you don’t want one your home screen but then cannot be accessed through any means, except by “unhiding” them.

The next tab, “Mobile Substrate Add-ons” is used to toggle faulty add-ons so that they can then be removed through Cydia.

Extras are little options like memory in status bar, numeric battery and much more.

And finally the last page, “App Folders” simply gives you the directory in which a chosen app is found. The point? We haven’t really figured that out yet really, seeing that all AppStore apps are in the same directory and Cydia in one own.

So that’s it for the “More” button on the drop down menu, so lets get back to that.

The refresh button will refresh your IP info, available storage and available memory.

The dock button, as I said previously, allows you to quickly access apps pre-selected in the “More” page.

The “Repsring” button will simply respring your device. This comes in handy when, for example, you are transferring files through SSH and need to update your device.

And last but not least, the “Power” button. When pressed, you are given 4 power options. Reboot (useful if your lock button is broken), Power Off (also very useful if lock doesn’t work), Lock and Safe Mode, this is especially useful if you have just installed a cracked application and it keeps crashing, put your device in safe mode and it might run perfectly, if not, the .ipa is invalid.

Here is a list of what will be released very soon.

WinterBoard is an application, which can be found on Cydia, that allows you to apply different themes to your iPod or Iphone.

It is a small and very simple application that lets you choose which themes are being applied.

Simply downloading a theme from Cydia will not do anything to your device, here is what you’ll need to do:

1. Open Cydia.
   
2. Wait for the sources to load.
3. Go to the search tab
   
4. In the search bar, enter “WinterBoard”.
   
5. There will probably be many themes that appear in the results, simply scroll down to “W”.
   
6. Click on the one named “WinterBoard”.
   
7. The next page gives a brief description of what the application does and a couple screenshots.
8. On the top right corner of the page is an “Install” button, press it.
   
9. Wait for the next page to load, and then press confirm.
   
10. Once the installation is completed, click the “Reboot Device”.
    
11. WARNING! Your screen will now turn black and your device will restart. DO NOT PANIC! It will return to normal in a few seconds.
12. If you like, you can go onto WinterBoard and try one of the demo themes that is provided.
13. Find the icon for “WinterBoard”.
    
14. You may click on any of the themes, for this demo, we chose the one named “Saurik”(creator of Cydia and WinterBoard)
    
15. Now press the home button, and wait for your device to respring
16. This theme, as we can see applies a different font and has 2 different background images that interchange every so often.
    
17. If ever you get tired of this theme or you don’t like it at all, and want to choose a “better one”
18. Go to Cydia, choose the theme you like best and download it, the three following pictures will show you how to do that
    
19. Then to apply the theme repeat steps 13 through 15 as shown below with your new theme
    

**WinterBoard works on hierarchy, this means that the first item checked will be applied first, then the icons that have nothing applied will be filled in by the second item, and so on and so forth**

And there you have it, you now have a shiny new theme.

Enjoy!

Note: Before you start this tutorial, in iTunes, make sure the “Sync games” checkbox, under the Games Tab, is not checked or your games will be deleted when iTunes opens.

I am not responsible for anything that happens to your ipod. Do it at own risk

First you need to know whether you have a 5G iPod, or a 5.5G iPod.

To know if you have a 5G or a 5.5g just go to music and scroll down. If you see the Search option, you have a 5.5G if not then its a 5G

IF YOU LOAD THE WRONG FIRMWARE YOU MAY RUIN YOUR iPod but it can easily be fixed by applying the CORRECT firmware a few times.

Now the steps:

1. Plug your iPod to the computer and access it, enable hidden folders and go to: /ipod_control. Create a folder called Games_RO.
2. Open each game ZIP. Drag the numbered folder to Games_RO.
2. Download iPodWizard 1.3 at the bottom. Start it up. You may need to right click>run as administrator to get it to work.
3. Change the edit mode to “Firmware File”.
4. Download the proper firmware for your 5G or your 5.5G iPod at the right. Extract it, then load it in iPW.
5. Click “Write to iPod”.

6.Eject/Unplug your iPod and your have all 20 games!

NOTE: If you have a theme on your iPod, or extra screens, or anything else, you may want to save it with iPodWizard first, and then once you write your firmware you can change everything back.
