Matte Nano combines the simplicity of small-icons with bright colors to create a theme that proves to be a stunning combination. Along with its matte finish and extensive icon collection, this theme is a sure classic.

The Matte Nano theme contains over 3000 icons for App Store and jailbroken applications. The theme also contains extra matte UI changes, a wallpaper, and that were not included in the original release of Matte Nano. The theme also has icon overlays that will theme any App Store icons that were not changed by the theme.

How to Install this Theme

  1. Make sure you are jailbroken. (How do I do that?) And that you are on or at an above firmware of 3.0. (How do I check?)
  2. Make sure you have downloaded Winterboard from Cydia.
  3. Download the package by clicking this.

Okay, we have a plot line: Our Mars colony is toast and the aliens who destroyed it are headed for the Home World. You are captain of a drop ship that has been armed with some advanced weaponry to fend off the enemy hoards. What's a drop ship? Apparently, a ship that has been dropped on a beach and probably without a parachute because it can't fly. At least, I haven't been able to get it to lift off and I'm a pretty damn good Captain.

Overclocking is defined by Wikipedia as

the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for or was specified by the manufacturer, usually practiced by enthusiasts seeking an increase in the performance of their computers.
Now this same concept can be applied to your jailbroken iPod touch or iPhone. This process will allow you to increase the amount of free ram your device has by using the flash memory that is intended for music, video, and apps and turning it into extra virtual memory.

This virtual memory can be used by your device to perform normal functions while you play games and listen to music and have a movie downloading in the background with extra memory to spare. So lets get started!

1. Make sure you are jailbroken. (How do I do that?) And that you are on or at an above firmware of 3.0. (How do I check?)

2. Open Cydia then, in the bottom right corner tap on the Manage tab.



3. Tap on Sources then in the top right corner tap on Edit, then Add.

4. Type in http://repo.beyouriphone.com and press Add Source.



5. Once it's done, in the bottom right corner, tap on the Search tab.

6. Type in iPhoneVM 2 (OS 3.X) and tap on it.

7. Install iPhoneVM 2 (OS 3.X) to your device.



There you have it, once you restart your device, you will have much more RAM to use for more functions.

Please note that over-usage of this feature (running more than 7-8 memory intensive apps at once) may reduce the performance of your device over a period of time (a few years).

If you liked Asteroids, you will love Meteor Blitz. If you didn’t, maybe not so much. Meteor Blitz is Asteroids for Century 21. Instead of white line drawings against the blank cathode ray background of deep space, we get gorgeous, crystal clear million-color graphics and seamlessly smooth animation. It’s a space shooter game, the objective of which is to blow stuff up before you collide with it or get blown up by hostile ships. Two ghostly joysticks direct the action. The right stick controls speed, boost, and vector; the left controls weaponry and offers a choice of fire, ice or the green stuff that the aliens shot at Will Smith in Independence Day. If you want to play your own audio, go for it. I chose New Morning by Placebo because its ominous, repetitive drone seemed perfect for the visual environment. The rules are simple: if it moves, shoot it, smash it into chunks, then blow up the chunks. Those of you working your way up in a bank or a tech firm will catch on right away. And to complete that analogy, whatever you destroy leaves a corpse in the form of a bright yellow ring that can be used to buy ship and weapon upgrades or to unlock other world environments. At the end of each phase The Boss shows up, and yes, The Boss too must die.



Everything about Meteor Blitz is superb, from the graphics and audio to the BMW I-Drive style control sticks. The problem is, for me anyway, there is no payoff. Destroying stuff just brings more and bigger stuff to destroy. Cool stuff, like space snakes and pointy spacecraft, but after a while I want to land. The default planet is a green, Earth-like place with lots of oceans and continents. I should be able to destroy some enemy ships, pulverize a few meteors, then head for a spaceport bar where I can pound a pint or two of Rigellian Wormhole Ale and maybe start a fight with some of the locals. Bustin’ space rocks constantly just starts to seem like prison. Also, just like Asteroids, the ship remains stationary and the background moves. This almost gives the illusion of flight, but mostly it feels like I’m glued to a point trying to dodge stuff that is coming at me.



Still, Meteor Blitz easily scores 5 out of 5. It’s a brilliant space shooter game and it’s well worth a buck ninety-nine.

Dolphin experience is a strange app. It’s not a bad app, it’s just that there’s not much to do. Basically Dolphin experience is like having a couple of pet dolphins. You feed them, play with them, interact with them, and that’s pretty much it. They never die or get sick, so there is no goal that you are trying to reach. There are a lot of pros to this app, but more cons. I’ll start with the cons.




First off, most apps like this are a lot more fun. The main problem with this app is that it’s too boring. The only things you can do are watch the dolphins, feed them, have them play with a ball, and jump through hoops. Trust me, it gets pretty boring after a while. Another big problem with the app is that there are no directions. You are left to figure out how to do everything by your self. All though there’s not that much to learn, it would still be helpful. For example, the app summary on the app store says that you can perform 18 different tricks with the dolphins, but I only see two tricks that you can do.

Overall, the app lacks involvement. There’s not much you can do but feed, play and interact with them. Now to the pros. One thing I immediately noticed about the app was the great graphics. The graphics are some of the best I’ve seen on the iPod touch. You can also choose from 3 environments to play with the dolphins. And at each environment you can choose from 4 different times of the day to play with them. So really you are getting 12 environments, because each environment is different, at different times of the day. The sounds are great to, mimicking real dolphin cries and water sounds.



The app also loads really fast, which is a surprise because the graphics are so good. Overall though, I think the cons outweigh the pros. There just isn’t a lot to do in this app. You watch them, feed them, and play with them in two different ways. Maybe if you really like dolphins you’ll like this app, but otherwise, I think you’re better off keeping your $1.99.

If you've been looking to tether your iPhone to your laptop or even a desktop computer since the old tethering trick stopped working, you are in luck! A new jailbroken app will now enable tethering on any iPhone (iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3G[S]) on firmware on any 3.1.x firmware.

1. Make sure you've jailbroken. (How do I do that?)

2. Open Cydia, tap on the Search tab at the bottom and type MyWi and tap on MyWi.



3. At the top right corner, tap Install then Confirm. When it's done you'll need to tap on Reload Springboard.



4. Once it's done installing, go to your home screen and find a new application called RockApp. Open it.

5. At the bottom, tap Manage, then tap Rock ID, then Create New RockID.



6. Create a new account.

7. In the What's New tab you should now see an update for MyWi. After you install the update, you will need to do a Soft Restart.



8. Open up MyWi and at the bottom turn on USB and Bluetooth Tethering. Then restart your iPhone.



9. Now open your Settings application. Go to General, Network, and Internet Tethering.

10. Turn on Internet Tethering.



There you go! Now all you need to do is plug your iPhone into your computer and select your iPhone from your list of networks and you should have an internet connection from your wireless data provider.

Please contact your wireless data provider to see if your phone plan covers data charges. Some providers charge substantial charges for this and they may incur while using the guide above.

ColorSplash is one of two simple and powerful photo editing apps from Pocket Pixels, Inc. Like its companion, Juxtaposer, it’s a one-trick pony. ColorSplash converts any graphic to a gray scale overlay that can be swiped away to selectively paint your photo with color. Although it comes with four detailed tutorial movies, using it is nearly intuitive. Choose a color photograph from your library. The photograph is imported into the app, where a grayscale copy is made and overlaid on the original. Then you get to the fun part: pick an area to colorize, tap it, and the gray vanishes to let the true color come shining through. ColorSplash seems to read your mind, stopping the color at the edges of the selection. For details, spread your fingers to enlarge your work and pinch them to contract. An infinite undo tool erases mistakes. Use the accelerometer to instantly change the view to portrait or landscape. Controls at the bottom edge make it easy to switch from colorizing to graying with a tap. A zoom-pan tool turns off the editing functions, but once you get the hang of working in the app it’s easier to just use the two-finger move to pan, and spread or pinch movements to zoom. Both color and grayscale functions can use fader brushes that allow just a touch of color to show through. For areas that show very little contrast with the background layer, tap the red dot and your colorizing brush spreads a red fog that helps you define boundaries. The fog is gone when the finished work is saved. Sessions can be saved to continue later, and finished work can be posted to Flickr, Facebook or Twitter.

Want to graft a baboon head with rattlesnake eyes and tongue onto your ex-girlfriend’s body? There’s an app for that and it’s called Juxtaposer. Load two photos into Juxtaposer and you have your own pocket Island Of Dr. Moreau. The first photo loads full-size to form the base for your evil work. Choose a second photo, and it loads in thumbnail size, ready to be shaped, re-sized, and moved into position on the base. The final result can be saved and used as a base for a second round of pixel mutation.

The fight between who is going to be able to jailbreak all iPod touch's and iPhone's for both Mac and PC first has been getting very aggressive in the past week.

If you've ever been to Amazon.com and looked for some cheap cases, you've probably seen the cases that are $0.01 to 1.00. Most people are very skeptical when it comes to these types of cases because they might be rip-off scams that won't deliver what they promise in the description. So we decided to risk $0.01 for the case and $ 2.99 for shipping and handling to put this case to the test.

What we found was that these cases are pretty legitimate! The one's we ordered, were comparable to the durability of those cases made my Griffin and Speck which are usually at a much higher price of around $25.

I dropped the case a few times with an iPod touch 2nd Generation inside and I was surprised to find that the case broke open and absorbed the impact of the fall like it is supposed to. (Similar to how a motorcycle helmet with a crack in it is a good sign.)

My iPod has not since yet incurred any severe dents or dings, and it only cost me $3.00. I am very pleased with this case.

Today at Adobe's MAX 2009 conference in Los Angeles, Adobe unveiled that, from our knowledge, is unknown by Apple. Developers will now be able to create iPhone apps in Flash CS5 and export the app in .ipa file format. If you didn't already know, .ipa format this the file style that apps for the App Store are created in.

A member of the Adobe Flash team was quoted saying:

"We've done a lot of work to make sure that applications are quick and interactive, and give you the kind of experience that you would expect from Flash, as well as the kind of experience that you've come to expect on your iPhone.
The apps that are created in CS5 are 100% compliant with Apple's app store regulations. This means that it has now become much easier for anyone to create iPhone apps. For a few examples check out Chroma Circuit, and Fickleblox which are currently on the App Store and have been created using Adobe Flash CS5. This also means that it is possible that iPhone apps can be created on a machine running Windows OS.

Here is a video demonstrating CS5 Applications on iPhone.



Adobe Flash CS5 is not expected to be released until after the end of 2009.

Today Adobe also confirmed that a native flash player for the iPhone or iPod touch will not be coming out any time soon because of Apple's restrictions on apps that can be admitted into the App Store. Hopefully Apple will wise up and give an exception to Adobe.
