Note: The following tweaks, FlashLock and QuickGoogle, will only work if you jailbreak your iPhone.

FlashLock

There are a lot of flashlight apps available in AppStore or in Cydia but this particular new jailbreak tweak catches up my attention because of its simplicity and convenience to use. Developed by Filippo Bigarella, FashLock is a shortcut to your iPhone 4 cameras to be used as a flashlight by just tapping an icon in the lockscreen after it has been installed.

To install FlashLock, launch Cydia and navigate to Sources and add Filippo’s repo: http://filippobiga.me/repo. After adding the repo, search for “FlashLock” and install then the springboard will restart. Double tap your Home button to add FlashLock icon near the slide of lockscreen. Tap to activate the flashlight.

This is a simple tweak but can be very useful at certain situations. Thanks to this tweak.

QuickGoogle

Here is a very nice tweak to use when you want to search on something in google. QuickGoogle is designed to launch almost anywhere in your iPhone. This is useful when making a quicksearch on google. Just search for “QuickGoogle” in Cydia, install and you’re good to go after restarting your springboard. Use Activator to assign the activator button for launching QuickGoogle. Future updates to this tweak may include news search or image search. Let’s just hope this will continue to provide better search app for google.

Adobe is saying that it is ready to enable Flash in the iPhone’s browser, but so far, they have not received required cooperation from Apple’s side.
