“YES! It’s today. Gotta tell you Im so thankful for everyone to be so patient and understandable for this Release. The delay was necessary because I made everything for do not mess up your computer and despite Microsoft Windows7 64bit is very tough to accept an un-certificated DLL, I found a very good safe way to run the App without installation and no hassles. All on-the-fly and in one single click, 1SHOT Yeah!! and now it runs on fine over XP and Vista (i386 and x64). I hope all of you help me to keep this Project alive; I never ever thought that this could be this BIG as it is. Thanks everyone and God bless!”Sergio Mcfly

Your iPhone 3G/3GS running a little slow on iOS 4? You can fix this by installing a simple SBSettings controller, that will disable all backgrounding tasks, and hence make your phone faster. This will of course disable multitasking and fast app switching, but you will have faster phone.
To install this, simply open up Cydia on your jailbroken iPhone and search for Background Remover SBSetting and install it. After this you need to enable the ‘kill switch’ in SBSettings.
Frash was yesterday released as a downloadable .deb package, but it needed a few extra steps to install. Now, it has been added to a repository, for easier installation via Cydia. You simply need to add http://repo.benm.at to your sources list in Cydia, and after that you should be able to search and install Frash 0.02.
Pretty easy way to enable Flash on your iPhone 4, isn’t it?
