Falling Snow Theme for your iPhone

Just in time for the holiday festivities, iOS developer Tristan Kennedy has created a snowy HTML widget for your jailbroken iPhone's home screen called SnowScreen. Simply apply the widget and you'll have a falling snow animation layered over whatever wallpaper you already have.




Without further adieu, let's show you how to apply this tweak.

Step 1: Add the Proper Source

As mentioned above, you will firstly need to jailbreak your device, if it's not already. Next, enter Cydia and select the "Sources" tab, tap "Edit," then "Add," and finally, enter "cydia.taskinoz.com" as the source.

Step 2: Install the Necessary Tweaks

With the source now added, you will be able to find the SnowScreen tweak through the search option in Cydia. Install it.
Now you'll need to install SBHTML, a tweak that'll allow you to apply falling snow to your home screen.

Step 3: Apply Falling-Snow Effects

Enter your Settings application and scroll down to the "GroovyBoard" (aka SBHTML) preferences. From here you'll enable the tweak and select SnowScreen as the theme.
When you select SnowScreen, you will have a couple of clock options as well as the ability to adjust the amount of snow "particles" showing—the more you apply, the slower they fall, so test out different values. Once your changes are saved, make sure to reboot or respring your iPhone to apply them.

Step 4: Let It Snow!

When your device is back up, you should have some beautiful snow falling over your wallpaper. Now all you have to do is find a winter wallpaper that'll bring the theme together.
[1] MaxParticles set at 200. [2] MaxParticles set at 500.
Get your device ready for the winter with SnowScreen, and let us know what you think below or on our FacebookGoogle+, and Twitter feeds.

iPhone 5 gets iOS 8.1.2 update

Ten days ago, Apple released a brand new iOS 8.1.2 update for iPhone, yet another bug fixer aimed at curtailing iOS 8 problems. Today, we want to take a look at what you need to know about the iPhone 5 iOS 8.1.2 update, a small but important update that’s currently available to those that own the aging former flagship.
Those who have owned the iPhone 5 since it came out back in 2012 have been through numerous software updates. Apple’s iPhone 5 arrived with iOS 6 on board but the device has since shifted to iOS 7 and now Apple’s iOS 8 update. iPhones typically are updated for three years before they’re kicked to the curb which means that the iPhone 5 may only have one update left in the tank.
For now, iPhone 5 users must contend with iOS 8, an update that delivered a number of new features to the iPhone 5 but one that also came with a host of new problems. iOS 8 problems emerged shortly after the iOS 8.0 release in September and iPhone 5 users in particular have been vocal about the problems plaguing their device on iOS 8.

Through a series of iOS 8 updates, Apple’s attempted to crush lingering iOS 8 problems. iOS 8.0.1 and iOS 8.0.2 eradicated a great number of issues, as did the iOS 8.1 update that emerged on October 20th. iOS 8.1.1 and more recently, iOS 8.1.2, both attempted to do the same. iOS 8.1.2, like the iOS 8.1.1 update before it, is a small bug fix update.
Apple’s iOS 8 track record has some people nervous about making the move to iOS 8.1.2. It doesn’t help that there are iPhone 5 users complaining about perceived iOS 8.1.2 problems. With all of that in mind, we want to take a final, detailed look at the iPhone 5 iOS 8.1.2 update as we head into the holidays and into the new year.
