The update to version 1.46 of SkrewCommon affects quite a few application in the Skrew source. The update to Skrew Common fixes iToday so that if you have not entered a location into a Calendar event, it will not display the @ sign (see screenshot below). It adds an autolock feature into vWallpaper that allows your iPhone to autolock when you have a video wallpaper. The autolock feature seemed to work fine for me. Doug has been waiting for this feature in vWallpaper for a long time! And finally, the update to SkrewCommon attempts to fix the issue with the reboot feature in iFastSwitch. The update to iFastSwitch also adds an SSH option. You can get all these applications and SkrewCommon via the Skrew source.

Full Change Log for version 1.46 of SkrewCommon:
SkrewCommon for vWallpaper:
    • Autolock implantation.
SkrewCommon for iToday:
    • Don’t display “@” if there are not location defined.
SkrewCommon for iFastSwitch :
    • Problem for halt / reboot : please test if it’s ok for you now.
    • SSH : Implementation of 4 ssh server version. As i can’t test all
versions, please report if it’s ok for you. If not, post on forum with
maximum details about your configuration.

The update to Skrew Common and iFastSwitch allow iFastSwitch to have some cool new features. Instead of swiping your finger from the upper right corner to the middle of the SpringBoard to activate iFastSwitch, you now swipe your finger across the statusbar at the top of the screen. You are also now able to activate iFastSwitch in others applications and not just when on the SpringBoard, as long as the status bar is visible. The ability to toggle SSH via iFastSwitch is also available in this update. And finally, the airplane mode icon turns red when it is toggled off. You can get iFastSwitch and Skrew Common through the Skrew source.

The update to SkrewCommon and iFastSwitch add an SSH toggle options to iFashSwitch however, it is not active. The developer says that it will be active in the next version of the application.

SkrewCommmon and iFastSwitch are available through the Skrew source.

iFastSwitch is an application that allows you to toggle your WiFi, Bluetooth and Airplane Mode as well as giving you the option to Respring, Reboot and Shutdown your iPhone. It also displays some system information about your iPhone including; the WiFi you are connected to, the IP address you are connected to, the battery percentage and system/media space information. In order to use the application, you have to donate (or have donated in the past). You can install the application without having donated however, you can not enable it.

When you open the application, you will get a main menu with the options; Settings, Visit Application Page and Donate. In the Setting you can enable iFastSwitch, Register and Restart your SpringBoard. What is cool about this application is that once it is enable, you activate it by swiping from the top right corner of your SpringBoard to the middle of the SpringBoard. The application will then pop-up on top of your SpringBoard. When you toggle WiFi, Bluetooth and Airplane Mode, you will know that are on when they are green. If they are toggled off, they will display red. To use the Respring, Reboot and Shutdown features, just double-tap them. If you would like to exit the application, just double tap on an empty spot on the SpringBoard. iFastSwitch is available through the Skrew source.

Note: SkrewCommon was updated to version 1.40 to support iFastSwitch. You will want to update SkrewCommon before installing iFastSwitch.
