The new Apple TV device which was landed on the store few days back seems to be a hit among the the customers. The Apple’s latest attempt to crack the set-top-box market sees a few reviews that was erupted.
According to store representatives, the $99 device was sold out by early afternoon in Seattle. University Village had “a few” in the morning and Bellevue Square had “a limited” number that was gone quickly.
Apple TV is fundamentally a wireless adapter that connects a TV set to computers and devices running Apple software for playing and renting movies and TV shows. It also streams photos and music from a computer.
Engadget attacked on one for a review that concluded Apple TV isn’t a solution for replacing cable-TV service. It said content available on the device is limited. However, “If you just want a dead simple movie rental box and you’re not that picky about content, the Apple TV is a no-brainer. If, like us, you’re looking for options good enough to make you can the cable, Apple’s new box still feels a lot like a hobby.”
Anyway still the Apple TV is standing and more customers like it and that’s put all the symptoms away.

I know, I know iPhone can get boring. Every time you see the same springboard, every time you see the same wallpaper when somebody is calling you. Yeah , you can install themes, and that can inject some rainbows and butterflies on your iphone, but how cool would it be if you would have a video background on your springboard? And how would you like to have a video ringtone?
That would be badass huh? Well, in a few painless steps, you can have all of that. Check this :
- open cydia
- search for vWallpaper
- install vWallpaper ( now, before you tap confirm make sure it will install vWallpaper and SkrewCommon. By default it does, but, if you wont get a 8-9 megs download and a new icon on your springboard make sure u install SkrewCommon as well ) ( how can u make sure that by installing vWallpaper you install both : well on the confirm screen check what message you get under Modifications – Installing )
That’s it , congrats. Videos are available for download from within the application, along with video ringtones. Also, you may use videos downloaded from MxTube. You can manually upload videos that you want to use via SSH. Just upload any .mp4 file onto
/private/var/mobile/media/Skrew/vRingtones
or
/private/var/mobile/media/Skrew/VWBackground
Just to make sure :
upload .mp4 videos for ringtones in /private/var/mobile/media/Skrew/vRingtones
upload .mp4 videos for background in /private/var/mobile/media/Skrew/VWBackground
NOTE :
- You must disable User Wallpaper in Winterboard for it to display
- If you got a theme, you must :
- ssh onto iphone and delete or rename that theme’s wallpaper
- use Mobile Finder, and rename the file
