    Default Cycorder application cant be renamed?

    So im a self confessed OCD - Anal freak about being neat, tidy, etc. This carries from my work life, home, and over onto my iPhone. I have renamed apps with silly names such as gpsphone and temper4iphone to things like GameboyAdvance and TurboGrafx16, I recently scooped up cycorder which rocks and is beyond useful especially in my line of work...
    however I cannot seem to rename it via the same method i have used for every other app I ahve ever renamed.

    Is this a bug, or something intentional? perhaps something ive overlooked?

    I have simply been using winSCP to navigate to the applications folder and rightclick-renaming it to whateveriwant.app the reloading springboard. However after doing so it still says cycorder so im unsure of what I'm doing wrong.

    I did have it work for me at one point, I renamed it to video, and ended up changing my theme as well, which coincidentally changed the icon, and renamed it to what I had it named (video). However upon updating it in cydia to the newest version, it reverted itself and now I cant get it to change no matter what I do. (uninstall,reinstall,rename,etc)

    any help? <3

    yea I realized that as an option, however being as I'm an OCD bastard... adding another app just to rename 1 app, when the rest are renamable in winscp seems un appealing.

    any other options or is that it? its somehow hardcoded to not be changeable for some unknown reason?
