What to do after you jailbreak your ipod touch

When I first jailbroke my ipod touch I had no idea what to do. There is so much that you can get from cydia and installer it is overwhelming. What I started to do was download everything, even if I didn't know what it did. This made my ipod very slow, and deleting all the stuff was hard to do. So I ended up restoring my ipod and then jailbreaking it again. That mistake of downloading everything made me loose allot of time. I do not want you to make the same mistake so follow what is on the list.....
  1. Open up cydia, go to sections at the bottom, open Repositories, and add all the sources you want. I recommend not getting any language support packages, because it will give you things you cant read. What adding sources dose is let you get more apps from different places.
  2. One of the best things to down load is dtunes, it is the same as itunes but everything is free. Things that download with dtunes is Mobil terminal that lets you down load things off the Internet to your ipod. The way to use dtunes is downloading torrents. Torrents can be games, music, and videos. Once you click on the get torrent button open up Mobil terminal, and type .//gettorrent to start downloading.
  3. A must have app that is my favorite is MewSeek Pro. What it dose is let you search song titles, and down load the song to your ipod with one click. You do need to click on import to itunes button to have it with the rest of your music after you down load it. Still it is much faster than dtunes when it comes to music.
  4. By far the most popular app is WinterBoard. What this app dose is it lets you customize EVERYTHING. The way to use it is download themes for it in cydia, click on WinterBoard and put a cheek on what you want to display. It's that easy!!!
  5. A use full app is BossPrefs. The only thing I use on it is numeric battery, this lets you see % of battery left instead of battery icon.
  6. Five icon dock, lets you change the amount of apps you can fit on the bottom to 5 instead of 4, this comes in handy if you have a lot of apps.
  7. Mx tube, lets you download youtube videos right to ipod touch.
  8. Cateqories, lets you put apps in folders.
  9. xtra-sender, lets you send free text messages for free.
  10. MobileMusicPlayer Flip, lets you combine video and music into one.

Those are the best things to do after you jailbreak you ipod. That list did not include games and video sites, stay tuned for a cydia top 20.
