1. Puchr
There just aren’t enough dedicated Flickr apps in the iTunes App Store. Pushr allows you to select a photo and edit a lot of the standard Flickr options. Users can edit the name, description, tags, and privacy options before uploading it their Flickr account. Pushr also allows you to upload multiple photos at a time, which beats emailing each photo individually. If you want to delete a photo from the list, simply swipe your finger from right to left. THe only quirk with Pushr is that you can’t specify a set for images to go to. Otherwise, Pushr is the ultimate Flickr uploading tool for your iPhone.
2. Qik
Qik is one of the best livestreaming services available on the web. The service has recently expand its offerings of compatible handsets. Lucky for jailbreakers, Qik has recently become available on jailbroken iPhones. Since its initial release the Qik app has upgraded tremendously. You can now:

- Allow Qik to see your current location
It’s still recommended to livestream with Qik over Wifi or 3G connections. Though, that’s hardly something to complain about.
3. Flixwagon
If you’re not into Qik, you may like its competitor, Flixwagon. Most of what applies to the Qik app also applies to the Flixwagon application. If you’re on Flixwagon instead of Qik, you won’t be left out in the cold. If only these apps were available in the App Store…
4. Winterboard
If you’re a customization junkie then you were probably disappointed in the fact that there’s very little you can do in terms of customizing the iPhone. The only customization option is the changing of the lock-screen wallpaper. Winterboard is the ultimate solution for meeting your customization needs on your iPhone. There are thousands of compatible themes floating around for customizing the “real” background on your iPhone, icons, bars, keyboards, alert buttons, battery images, and tons more. The possibilities are endless with Winterboard. Quite frankly it’s one of the main apps that most people do jailbreak their iPhones for.

5. MxTube

With MxTube can stream Youtube videos just like you do with the standard Youtube app. MxTube also allows you to download and save these videos to your iPhone. The process is simple and entirely dependent upon your internet connection. Simply download the video you’d like to view later and that’s it. You can watch all your videos directly from the MxTube app. No conversion necessary.

So if you’re in the mood for some old school games like Monopoly, a game that isn’t available in the App Store, then the NES emulator might be worth considering jailbreaking your iPhone for.
7. GSphone
If you were a bigger fan of the Gameboy system, then developers have you covered with the GSphone emulator. Like the NES emulator, GSphone allows you to run ROMs for the Gameboy gaming system. All you old school Pokemon fanatics will love this one! Too bad you have to jailbreak your iPhone for it.
