Pandora updated their iPhone app to finally support running in the background. It’s using Apple’s new APIs to keep the audio streaming in the background but close down the rest of the app to save battery life. It worked well on my iPhone 3GS and the new iPod controls in the dock now support Pandora when it’s open.
Backgrounding this app only works on iOS 4 which means it doesn’t background on the iPad. Below is what it looks like.

Backgrounder, a hack that allows applications to run in the background, has been updated to version svn.r432 (and svn.r436). The new version actually makes a decent amount of changes to the hack (full change log below).
The overall settings of the app have changed… including more description about each setting… which is nice.
In the Global option of the settings, you will find quite a few more features including the ability to choose the type of Backgrounding Method (Off, Native and Backgrounder), choose the Backgrounding State (Enable at Launch or Stay Enabled – previously Backgrounding Persists), the ability to turn on a Status Bar Icon and the options to Fallback to Native and Minimize on Toggle.

Endless Walls is a pretty cool wallpaper application. When you first open the application, it does require you to create an account (or log in if you already have an account) though the process is quick and easy.
Once signed in, the app will automatically begin displaying wallpapers. You can pause the automatic slide-show of wallpapers by tapping the pause button on the lower menu bar. If you do find a wallpaper you would like to save, you can quickly save it to your Camera Roll using the save button all the way to the right on the lower menu bar. [Read more…]

In the last two days, MacCiti has released 6 Christmas Wallpaper Packs. Instead of doing them each individually I thought I would put them all in one post so that you can compare. Most of the packs contain ten wallpapers all of which are totally random (and vary in quality) but will definitely put you in the Christmas spirit!
Remember, when you install this wallpaper pack, the wallpapers are added to your stock Settings application under Wallpapers. You can get Christmas Walls via the MacCiti source.

Live Strong is a simple yellow and black WinterBoard theme that contains 85 icons, a dock and a wallpaper. This theme does not contain any bells and whistles… it’s just the basics but, sometimes less is more! The only thing I would have like to have seen is a matching badge. Other than that… not too bad. You can get Live Strong via the modmyi source. [Read more…]

When I saw an update to Backgrounder, a mod that allows apps to run in the background, I was like…YES! I thought we were going to get some of the old features back but, the update just fixes a bug in which some apps were not restoring properly. I know, I was totally bummed too. I could really use the SpringBoard badge that indicates when an app is running…I have a feeling I have left a few running on accident! You can get Backgrounder via the BigBoss source. [Read more…]
