DreamJB Confirmed Fake [Unfortunately]
We posted earlier today about a skeptical but possible untethered jailbreak for all iOS 6 iDevices, including the iPhone 5, iPad Mini + others. The DreamJB team have uploaded a youtube video (shown below) which has been confirmed fake by many users within the Jailbreak community including MuscleNerd. The video is one of the most, if not THE most, well done fakes we have ever seen, but even the best fake still has some discrepancies. Now, other than the fact that the DreamJB “developer” has already admitted that this was nothing more than a “social experiment,” here are some …
iOS Application Camera Roll and Contact List Access
In the past weeks, Apple has been taking heat, from various online sources, after it was revealed that the Path application available in the iTunes store was able to collect the contents of your entire address book. Since then, Path CEO, Dave Morin, has issued an official apology and stated that they have deleted any contact list information that they had from their servers.

iUsers Brings Multiple User Accounts to Jailbroken iPads
*UPDATE* I contacted Pedro via Twitter and asked him if he planned on porting the tweak to iPhone/iPT and he replied that he will probably be releasing an update next week, stay tuned!
One nice feature about most operating systems is the ability to create multiple user accounts so that you can customize multiple desktops that are specific to each individual user and also to restrict certain settings to administrators only. Unfortunately, iOS is lacking this feature, until now! A developer by the name of Pedro Franceschi has created a new Cydia tweak called iUsers which allows you to …
