This is a Wikipedia definition

Winterboard is a software that is run on jailbroken iPhones and iPod Touches. It allows custom themes to be downloaded to the device from Cydia and then be applied to the SpringBoard to modify the appearance of the device.

Yes, there a app called MyPhoneDesktop it allows you to control your iPhone (somewhat) from a computer. But I have doubt on working.

Well, Cydia gives some paid apps for free. So it would be piracy. And piracy= illegal in this forum.

I have recently installed these which I think are good-

1) Rollercoaster- Its a Gravity sensor based game where you have to collect boosts etc

Its a free game. No paid version

2) Around ME- I have explained it a few posts above.

3) JellyCar- Very addictive and good game. Great timepass

4) Opera Mini- Same reason why we install in our phones.

5) Football Kicks- Good football game. You have to free kick, etc
It was free when I got it. Not sure now :(

6) Google Translate - Self Explanatory

7) Facebook- Great app for the worlds most famous social networking site :)

More good apps later :p

Ok vertical shooters - icarusx, mortal skies, superlaser, busterred and if you want just one, s.deadbeef is the best (erm horizontal shooter)
tower defence - stardefence, bugheroes (in depth rpg elements), and towermadness teh rest are not as good, although if you want pure strategy and zero graphics then Vector TD is the way to go
online multiplayer - charadium and stardunk gold eat up my time the most, not so much pocket heroes although some others may like it
apart from these rhythm spirit, dark nebula, I dig it, static storm and pro zombie soccer are all well made and strike a good balance between casual and intense games, you can play for short bursts but all are engaging as well
really casual titles that play well are candy train, germcraft, and astral - a personal fav which starts off with sitar music that turns into techno if you play well

Got an iPhone 4 today. The problem is the micro SIM card.
I have two options: Cut the SIM or get a new one (preferably with same number)

Has anyone tried cutting it and has used it successfully?

re: Official iPhone/iPod Touch owners thread

^hey the full version of gravity guy was free a couple of days ago, did you pick it up? If so, we can play multiplayer if you gimme ur game center (or add me: fulliautomatox)

Also > Buganoids, Super Soviet Missile Mastarr, Destructopus

GroundEffect is the best racer ive played, the others seem like sightseeing by comparison, especially some of the games by the bigger studios (Asphalt, Real Racing, NFS etc)

hyped games that are not as good and regret picking up - kometen, osmos, volcano escape, nfs shift, 1-bit ninja, Mass Effect Galaxy, Mortal Kombat
also any dual stick shooter does not play too well, as the controls are never precise enough - exceptions being astral, which is a single stick non-shooter where the single "stick" works very well, and bug heroes because of all the other things in the game
if you can handle the erratic controls then minigore and crazy jhon are good
