How To Install Sauriks Cydialer Lockscreen Tweak


Saurik of the Dev team and creator of Cydia, has just developed a great lockscreen tweak called Cydialer. This is basically a cover flow system which displays all your favourite phone numbers and contact photos, these can be scrolled through just like your ipod album collection, but without needing to unlock your iphone. It looks and works great.






To operate ;
1. Press the home button to view lockscreen
2. Browse for desired contact
3. Select contact
4. Press slide to call
( Or cancel to choose another contact etc )

Remember though your lockscreen doesn't stay illuminated for long, so you might want to download 20 or 60 second lockscreen as well from Cydia to get the best from it, though whilst flicking through contacts it does stay lit up. If you want to give it a try follow these instructions ;

1. Open Cydia and select ;
Manage / Sources / Edit / Add / Type in and install ;
http://repo.beyouriphone.com/

2. Now select ;
Search / Type in ;
cydialer

3. Open then scroll down page until you see a link for Cyget, select and install this first, this is important

4. Device will respring

5. Open cydia and select ;
Search / Type in and install ;
cydialer

6. Your device will respring

7. Now select ;
Settings / Cyget / Lock cyget order / Check only Cydialer and Awayview (Uncheck anything else)

8. To add contacts to your lockscreen select ;
Contacts / Select contact / Scroll down and select make favourite
( Repeat this for all contacts you want to display on lockscreen )

Thats it, personally this is one of the best tweaks I have used, its great, big shout out to Saurik!

PLEASE REMEMBER TO PURCHASE IF YOUR KEEPING, THIS SHOWS SUPPORT TO DEVELOPERS AND KEEPS THEM PRODUCING "FINE" APPS AND TWEAKS LIKE THESE!
