Yesterday I wrote about how J’echielue, my so called “friend”, wickedly convinced me to jailbreak my iPhone by using the dirtiest trick of showing off with some cool Cydia tweaks.

It has been around 33 hours since (not that I’m counting or something), and I’m still trying to figure out whether I did the right thing or not.

Meantime, J’echielue, continues his raging journey to tweak every piece of iOS functionality, and he came up with 10 must have Cydia apps that will tweak your iPhone and allow you to customize it end to end.

I must admit I already tried some of those tweaks – they are quite amazing.
