Change System Strings on 3.0

By KC 3.0 Firmware, Cydia, Hack, Hidden, How to, iPhone, iPod Touch, Jailbreaking, Mobile Config File, Tutorial, Winterboard 8 Comments »

So, this morning I planned on giving a great detailed article over how to change system strings with pictures and everything but unfortunately, my iphone froze and I’m in the process of completely rebooting.  However, I can still take you through the steps just without pictures. Sorry guys! This is the EASY WAY WITHOUT A COMPUTER!!!!

The system strings are the “Slide to Unlock” , “Slide to Cancel”, “Slide to do whatever else.” With the help of iFile (click to see info) and a Cydia app, you can now change the strings to say whatever you want i.e. “Welcome KC!”

Things you will need:

Cydia, iFile, Slide to Unlock Killer, Winterboard

  1. First what you want to do is go into cydia and install iFile.
  2. After installing that, add new source (http://cydia.touch-mania.com)
  3. Then search for “Slide to Unlock Killer” and install that
  4. Next, go back to your homescreen and click on iFile. Go into settings and turn on Hidden Files. Next to the very beginning of the folders and follow this: Var/Stash/Themes/EntriegelKiller
  5. Once you’ve done this, choose your language (Most of you will click on “En”) Follow this after EntriegelKiller: Folders/Springboard/En.lproj/Springboard Strings
  6. Once the page with text shows up this is where you will change your strings. You can kind of read through them to understand which ones are which. I do remember that the second one about user_lock or something is the “Slide to Unlock”
  7. To edit these, click on edit in the top left and put your cursor in between the ” ” to the right of the strings you want to change.
  8. After typing your text, delelte any spaces between the ” ” i.e “Welcome KC!       “<<<–you would make it look like “Welcome KC!”
  9. After you’ve changed all the strings that you want, click save.
  10. Go into winterboard and turn on Entriegel Killer and let it refresh and now your system strings should be changed.

Any questions or comments, leave in the comments section!

Rocketdock: Make your PC look like a Mac!

By KC How to, Mac, News, Vista, Windows 4 Comments »

A little off the subject of an iphone but I thought this would make for a great article.

After my conversion from a blackberry curve to an iphone 3g, I have become a HUGE fan of apple. Unfortunately, I’m a broke college student and can’t afford a brand new mac at the moment so I did the next best thing….I made my PC look like a mac!

How did I do this you may ask? Well after playing around with a few sites and several downloads I discovered a way to make it look as close to a mac as possible. This will work for Windows XP as well as Vista. Follow the simple steps below to make your PC look like a mac.

  1. Go here and download the latest version. Unzip it and then install and run it. I’d recommend creating a desktop shortcut for easy access.
  2. After downloading it, the default places it at the top of the screen. If you right click and go to “screen position” you can place it on the bottom.
  3. Next, go here and download the Leopard OSX wallpaper.
  4. After step 3, right click on your taskbar and unlock it. Move the taskbar to the top of your screen and lock it back by repeating the right-click. Again, right-click and choose properties and make sure you check the box next to “Auto Hide.”
  5. On your desktop, right-click on your original wallpaper and go into Properties>Desktop Tab and then click on browse and find the Leopard OSX wallpaper you just downloaded and make it your new wallpaper.
  6. Return to your desktop and right-click once more and go to “Arrange Icons By” and click on “Hide Desktop Icons.” Your desktop should now look similar to this:

    My desktop

    My desktop

  7. Next what you’re going to want to do is customize your dock. Right-click inside the dock and go to “Add item” and then choose file. You will take this step to add every item you want in your dock.
  8. To choose what your icons look like, I recommend going to rocketdock.com and downloading one of the icon bundles.
  9. You may also want to get some widgets for your desktop so go here and download Yahoo! widgets. Now you can choose which widgets you’d like to see on your desktop.

It’s as simple as that guys! If you have any questions, leave it in the comments and I’ll be sure to get back with you as soon as I can. Have fun customizing your new Mac/PC!
