Native Cydia Multitasking!!!!

[Amandeepsinghz]

This is just what the title says it is. I found a way to natively multitask Cydia!! To do this, you must have the latest version of iFile installed since it is the easiest way to do it. First go to

/var/stash/Applications.xxxxx/Cydia.app

Then go to the Info.plist file. Open it in the Property List viewer. At the very bottom, you should see "UIExitsOnSuspend" Now turn that off, respring and you're done!! I suggest you do this only on newer gen models since it can eat up a lot of RAM. Thank or rep me!

Can anyone else confirm this? If so, im opening cyberduck immediately

It works but there are reasons why it is disabled by default.

[Amandeepsinghz]

It works but like I said in OP lots of RAM eaten

[A3gOwner]

That's not the issues I'm talking about. You can cause some serious issues if something happens while it's backgrounded. Saurik commented on this and chpwn has as well.

Nice find, BUT don't Fix it if it Ain't broke.

[Amandeepsinghz]

Never said it's a fix. Never said Cydia is broken. This is just a "tweak" that is for people like me that browse Cydia a lot and hate the time it takes to load after I close it for 2 seconds. Thank you for your constructive criticism (no sarcasm meant).

Considering the risks saurik has mentioned, it's not worth it... I'll wait the extra 15 seconds for Cydia to load

lol. you have a fricking 512(?) mb processor and i only have a 128 of which only 50 is avalible. that makes my load time well over a minute. what are the risks? i dont know of any.
