[BigBoss]

This native iPhone app is an offshoot of "Services" by Chris Hoffman. The app expands on services by adding some more options and focusing on being a complete preferences replacement. After installing BossPrefs? you should be able to remove Customize, SMBPrefs, and Settings icons from your desktop.

Install by adding my installer repository here: http://sleepers.net/~iphone/repo.xml

Here is the google code page for it:

I just insalle it today. It seems to be working a little quirky with customize. Some options go to a blank screen?? I have FW 1.1.2

Are you Boss? I like this app, I'd like to be able to turn off afpd too!

running 1.1.2 (locked)

I got the update on installer and now my BossPrefs has two SMB icons at the bottom instead of Settings and SMB. One of them actually is Settings, the icon is just wrong.

Yea sorry about that. Should be fixed now. I'll up the rev so it shows up as an update.

It just runs whatever customize you have installed. Did you update it to 1.19?

Yes I am. I'll make a note of that as a future feature.

I love it! its awesome :]
I think, IMO, that it could be cooler and more formal if instead of the customize/ smb/ and settings icons, u could have tabs... thats could be cool

[soda97]

is it good to put installer in this too?
i just wanna free more icon space =)

I moved everything off of the markmon source (my home pc) and onto the sleeper's server. So you can add both without conflict, but the sleepers source is the primary source. I may occasionally put some temporary experimental stuff on the markmon source. There's also a chance I move my apps to STE's repository if mine doesnt become more wide spread.

Hi all,

I updated the tool and added some things / fixed some bugs. Remember I moved my repository to http://sleepers.net/iphonerepo (make sure autocorrect doesnt change iphone to iPhone when you enter it. Here is a changelog from my googlecode page (http://code.google.com/p/bossprefs/):

1.25 -

* Added a config screen allowing to enable/disable various features.
* Added ability to have SSH come on or not after reboot (by request).
* Added enumeration of email accounts to enable/disable them.
* Reworked IP address on display to be inline on smaller font.
* Fixed problem on 1.0.2 summerboard launches. It was not launching on 1.0.2 phones but now it does.

1.1 -

* Fixed SMBPrefs launch for 1.0.2 iPhones with older summerboard.

1.0 - Initial version Changes from Services:

* Add icons to launch apps
* Add enumeration for email accounts
* GUI update
* Reworked SSH enable/disable to immediately kill SSH server (services leaves it running if you have a connection). Also SSH will reload on next reboot as a safety precaution. If you mess up your phone and SSH does not load you have no option but restore. With this change you can SSH in and "fix" the problem. You need to remember to disable SSH in the app after every reboot.
* Added display of IP address for WiFi? and EDGE.

Not sure if this is a bug, but when you have SSH on reboot turned off you cannot turn SSH on.

My understanding would be that when you reboot it would do what ever you have set, but you should still be able to turn it on and off manually.

[stlcaddie]

do you think your add more choices to toggle so i can get rid of NETSERVICES.....I LIKE BOSS BETTER BUT IT DONT DO ALL I NEED

[rperalta]

Hi markmon,

How do I replace SMBPrefs with Installer. I'm on 1.1.2 firmware and don't have a use for it. Thanks!

[canadoc]

Can you add Rogers phone settings fro EDGE as an option?
There is alarge canadian contingent using the iphone unlocked. Your program is great, but for the moment netservices app crator actually added in the settings those for rogers. It saves me the trouble to have to maually type back in the apn settings.

Any way you can add that to your app?
