trichome – WinterBoard Theme

Available In: Cydia

Price: Free

trichome is a very nicely designed WinterBoard theme that contains 39 small icons (some are alternate icons), a wallpaper, dock, badges, pop-up mod, live clock mod and page indicators.

I really like the live clock mod implementation. You do not have to have the actual LiveClock app installed for the live clock to work with this theme… it is built into the theme. The theme also contains an icon mask which resizes all icons (besides web clip icons) so that they match the themed icons. It also contains a detailed .psd file allowing you to create your own icons for the theme. You can get trichrome via the modmyi source.

Volume Buttons Disable Hack

Available In: Cydia

Price: Free

Volume Buttons Disable is a hack that does exactly what the title says… disables your volume buttons. As soon as you install the hack, and your device resprings, the volume buttons on the side of your device will no longer work. I’m not exactly sure why you would want this but… there’s a hack for that!

If for some reason you do install this hack, you can always adjust your volume using the SBSettings Volume Slider Widget which allows you to quickly adjust your volume via a slider in SBSettings.
