Changing theme is one of the nice features of growl on macs. After I tried it on the iphone, I agree that these growls are less obtrusive than the typical iphone notifications, but they are still more obtrusive than status bar notifications. So far, it hasn't really added too much to my iphone use. But still, it's nice to be able to run it.

EDIT: After a little use, I think a nice feature is the low memory growl. It's helpful. Before things get really sluggish, you get a little growl that tells you that you are low on memory, so that you can clean up or kill some processes

How can I install the .deb file if ssh terminal does not work? I've been getting an error since beta3 and coreutils is installed. Please help me as I really want this.
Could someone possibly host the file on a Cydia repo somewhere please?

I just can't get into the whole Growl thing. I've tried it a few times but it always just kind of annoyed me. Perhaps this will be different. I'll probably give it a shot though...

Isn't this something like the Push feature thats going to be available for apps on 3.0? We already have the audio, and i think in the conference videos they were showing how meebo will give you a Pop-Up saying that you have a new IM etc. Maybe Growl itself will be in the app store since Dev's are allowed to script Pop-up notifications.

WHat about Memmory Usage? IS this a Heavy App ? Cause its always ruuning in the background...With Winterboard already sometimes the phone is slow..also with some other Lockscreens als with changing backgrounds and with SB settings and iRealssms (also running in background) all that togher I`m running and have free of 30mb Memmory.


Sometimes the phone is slow and needs a restart.... Also I think that 2.2.1 is very bad firmware compare with previuos fimwares.

I haven't seen any noticeable increase in memory usage. BTW, a cool Growl feature is missing in Grip, that is, GrowlTunes. When I am listening to music and browsing the Web with MobileSafari or reading tweets on a tweeter app for iPhone (or whatever else I am doing) and the iPod app changes song, it's nice to get a little notification with the info on the new song played. But this feature is not currently available in Grip. It should not be too difficult to implement it.

Can anyone open up the email app when you click on the notification while on the LockScreen? Seems to work when in the springboard only.

the advantage of grip comes from the fact that current iphone type of notifications, like what we get for calendar/sms, SUCK...stupid popup in the middle of the screen!! imagine when we have all the new push notification apps??? nightmare

GriP can make thinks much less intrusive, and actually usefull


by the way, i have it running perfectly on 3.0 beta 4

How did you use Mobile Terminal with beta 4?

[ares07]

why would i use mobile terminal?

[shockre]

how to install this on 3.0 beta 4? you cant use cydia and you cant use MobileTerminal. and you cant add hackers.nl repo in Icy.. i have put the deb file via ssh on my phone,but i dunno how to install it.

[jabbawalkee]

Okay so I installed it all properly and it worked for about 2 minutes and I was able to preview the notification and what not. Then I switched the location and now am unable to preview it and when i click on "GriP Preferences," it says "Cannot parse a NULL or zero-length data"

Can anyone help me with this??? Thanks.

PS I'm good with the iPhone and understand how to do a lot, but I can't figure out what's wrong and how to get it to work. I have TLert installed as well, so I don't know if that's causing conflict or what.
