Cydia’s latest update shows this app supreme preferences. Excited to try out; I see that this is a cool addon. The app didnt disappoint. Supreme preferences has to be installed via cydia and to activate/use it you will need winterboard. Now the app basically contains quite a few handy settings for the iPhone. Its similat to extended preferences also available on Cydia.
Most of the new settings options are located in the Supreme Preferences options (just after the Photos tab). However, it does add a few in your usual Settings options as well. In the General settings, you will now see an option for Auto-Dim as well as Touch Sensitivity. The Auto-Dim feature allows you to choose the time you would like your screen to stay on before it dims. It ranges from never to 10 mins. The Touch Sensitivity option allows you to change how sensitivity your iPhone or iPod Touch’s touch screen is. This ranges from 0.0 to 16.0 (dont keep to 16 or you would find it very difficult to open any app). The app also adds an iTunes option on your main settings menu. When selected, you will have the option to turn on/off Save AppStore Password.
The rest of the settings are located in the Supreme Preferences tab. When selected, you will get a page that includes all the addition settings that Supreme Preferences offers. The first is On-The-Go and Genius for your iPod. You can also choose if you would like it to shuffle by Songs or by Albums. The next options are Calendar Tweaks. Here you are able to choose what time you would like your calendar to start and end the day. However all these preferences didnt seem to work even after rebooting my iPhone. The Show Internal Apps, Show YouTube and App Reveal Mode also did not work. (Ps: I am using V2.1; will check on 2.2 soon)
The next set of tabs were the Status Bar settings. Here you can turn on/off Fake Signal Bars (for iPod Touch users), Fake Time which allows you to change the time to what ever you enter into the Fake Time String section or, you can choose from a few prefabbed phrases using the Fake Time Shortcuts option. You can also change your Carrier using the Fake Carrier option. You can choose from a from a few prefabbed phrases (the same ones as the Fake Time) using the Fake Carrier Shortcuts option. The Fake Time setting worked great for me. The Fake Carrier option worked pretty well, but if you already have a fake carrier set using any other application (MakeItMine), when you delete it using Supreme Preferences, it does not put your stock carrier logo back. Which isnt that big a deal.
The last settings options are the Numeric Battery and Numeric Wi-Fi which are a must have. They allow you to tap on either your battery and/or Wi-Fi to see the exact percentage (in numbers). Both of these options work great for me.
Overall, this application actually runs smoothly and installs nicely and doesn’t delete your previous preferences however, there are quite a few things that didnt work. Maybe and update might solve these issues.
