Edit System Strings For 3.0 No Computer Required

July 23, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

Ever since the first jailbreak back in the 1.1.1 days, customizing our iphones have been one of the main reasons to jailbreak. The main things most people want after they jailbreak are custom icons, custom background wallpapers, and custom sounds but there is still one very cool thing you can do to make your custom theme even better. You can change the system strings to whatever you like, I know your probably thinking what is that. The system strings are the words that are on your iphone which say “slide to unlock”  before you unlock your phone or “slide to power off” right before you turn it off. It has always been kinda tricky and time comsuming to change the system strings, as one bad edit of the .strings file can mess up your phone. It is now very simple, easy, and not that time consuming to do this. Check out the video below compliments of Jima6636 to learn how to do all of this using winterboard and ifile:
