Apple's iOS 5 has only been out in the wild for two weeks, but clever hackers have already come up with some pretty amazing tweaks for it. You'll need to jailbreak your iPhone in order to access these tweaks, but unfortunately, there's no jailbreak available yet for the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. If you have an older iPhone, use these instructions to jailbreak it, a non-destructive process that can be undone at any point. Also, thanks to iDownloadBlog.com for scoping some of these out! BiteSMS brings awesome Quick Reply features to iOS 5. We love iOS 5's "swipe to unlock" feature for specific apps like Messages, but a jailbreak feature we miss is Quick Reply. The new version of BiteSMS includes some great QuickReply features that pop up a SMS response screen so you can reply to texts without interrupting what you're doing. Availability: still in beta, but you can try it out
AppCenter puts your favorite apps inside your Notification Center menu. Wish you could have easy access to five apps in your Notification Center? AppCenter is here for you. It's not out quite yet, but it will let users have a second "dock" where commonly used apps can hang out. Availability: in beta, but coming to Cydia soon.
NowPlaying pops up a banner when a new song comes on. This free download lets your Music app pop up a "Now Playing" banner whenever a new songs comes on. We love music widgets on our Mac, so this one's nice to have on our iPhone too. Availability: free from the BigBoss default repository in Cydia
