I know many of you want to try the controversial and radical iOS 7, but you don't want to lose iOS 6.X untethered jailbreak, and I am the one of you, I want to stay jailbroken iOS 6.1.2, and I want o try these new features very much, and now here is the right place to let you get these iOS 7 new features but without update and lose your jailbreak, thanks to cydia tweaks make iOS 7 features and UI additions can be achieved through jailbreak tweaks and themes.
Meanwhile, redmondpie made the video below would walk you through everything included to transform iPhone 5 running jailbroken iOS 6, into an iOS 7 competitor.
Due to the nature of iOS 7, it’s pretty feature rich. A full list of Cydia packages, along with their prices and repos can be found below:
iOS 7 Theme for iPhone: is the icon set that I used for this video, it does a great job in incorporating iOS 7 icons in replacement for the boring iOS 6 stock app icons. It can be found on the MacCiti repo for free.
iOS 7 Bars And Battery: produces an identical status bar to iOS 7, including the new flatter battery icon, and dots in replacement for signal bars. It can also be found on the MacCiti repo for free.
BlurriedNCBackground: provided the functionality required to have a Gaussian blur effect in replacement for the linen Notification Center background we’re all so accustomed to. This tweak is available for free on the BigBoss repo.
CardSwitcher: is the tweak used to replicate the iOS 7 App Switcher. This is almost identical to the multitasking functionality found in iOS 7, and will set you back $1.99 from the BigBoss repo.
Thin Lockscreen: is the lock screen theme that I used in this video. It provides a very minimalist approach to the lock screen, and looks incredibly similar to the iOS 7 LS. It is hosted on the Patrick Muff repo for free, so you’ll need to add this source (patrickmuff.ch/repo) to your Cydia sources in order to access the download. The lock screen wallpaper can be found here:goo.gl/SkxzY
FolderEnhancer: was used in this video, to emulate the functionality and appearance of iOS 7 folders. It does a great job, as I’m sure you noticed from the video above. It’s available for $2.49 from the BigBoss repository.
Auxo: is the tweak chosen to replicate the functionality of Control Center within iOS 7. Whilst it doesn’t look very similar, the functionality it provides is almost identical and even could be considered better with the addition of app switching. This tweak will set you back $1.99 from the BigBoss repo.
DeepEnd: produces a parallax effect, by moving your home screen wallpaper depending on the accelerometer motion detection from your device. This provides a very cool 3D effect to your springboard, and can be found for free on Ryan Petrich’s beta repo (rpetri.ch/repo).
BytaFont + Roboto Light: were used in this tutorial in order to provide a font that looks incredibly similar to the default font found within iOS 7. Both are available for free within Cydia.
(Optional): Here’s how you can set Yahoo weather app as default on iPhone home screen.
