    Question More than one Internet

    I am wondering if it's possible to have more than just Safari on my iPhone. What I mean is having an Internet Explorer.app with the vista perfection theme safari as a seperate app from safari. I tried copy pasting mobilesafari and renaming it internet explorer, then changing the file pictures, but it didn't work. I just think it would be cool to have safari, internet explorer, and fire fox all on the iPhone.
    If you have a solution please comment.

    I get where you're coming from, but what for?

    Safari does the job perfectly.

    There really isn't a purpose other than wanting to choose the appearence.

    You can change one name from Safari to whatever by editing the LocalizedApplicationNames.string from /System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/English.proj/. I'm not sure how to have more than one "Internet" however. Try making webclips and naming them what you want?

    Could probably download that third party webbrowser called MyFox, or whatever it is. Then duplicate that.

    Exactly what I was thinking. Here's an example
    You place this in /var/mobile/library/WebClips
    The folder needs to have 755 permissions, and the two items inside need to have 644.

    Having 3 identical applications and renaming 2 of them IE and Firefox is an awesome idea!!

    Not everything is done for functionality. As an iphone user, you should be more than familiar with that concept.

    Quit your job. You could make more money auctioning dogs. You could make more money sitting outside a tube station with your hat on the ground if you were twice ad ugly as you are already, which is very ugly indeed!

    I can't seem to get it to work. I also don't really know what I'm doing...
