    Default CLUELESS iPhoner! Please Help!

    So, here I am trying to be stealth and jail breaking my iPhone and now I'm totally lost. I am brand new at this and can barely understand the lingo ppl on this site are using...so I need somone who is patient and wants to help a beginner! THNKS in advance!

    1) I went to Jailbreakme.com, downloaded installer and then downloaded 'Customize.' Now I have 'demo app' and 'field test' icons displayed. I tried to unistall customize to get rid of them, but not so much luck. They are so ugly! HELP! Thanks again for everyone's patience with my obvious ignorance!!!

    2) In general, what are the "essential" applications I should download? I know its all custom and personalized, but what are some of the best and most popular ones?

    Great! Thanks so much...will start on this and get back to you!!!

    Hello!

    OK, I have all installed but Launcher and summerboard. I cannot find launcher, only 'ilauncher.' Is this the same? Should I install this? Thanks again for putting up with me. You are really helping me...

    Great. Well, when I run xlaunch...it shows me all my icons...when I click on "reset" on for example 'field test' it gives me options to 'launch app,' 'toggle visibility,' 'push onto button bar' and 'squeeze onto button bar.' Which one deletes it?

    I still dont know what all the things are that I downloaded or what their functions are. When you have a chance, would you mind explaining? Or is there like a "idiots forum for jailbreaking" I should sign on to? I feel so lost because I dont even know what the basic terminology is..like...button bar...or toggle...but I want to learn!!! You are the best!

    Ahhh...you gave up on me!! Anyone? I just want to know how to get this started!
