BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING, MAKE SURE YOU'RE ON THE LATEST iOS VERSION AND YOU UPDATED VIA iTUNES AND NOT OVER THE AIR (OTA)
Cydia is still being updated (mobile substrate is good to go) at this time. As expected, there are numerous apps, tweaks, functions, etc. not working right now. It'll be a work in progress.

What is Jailbreaking?
quote:

Jailbreaking is basically adding software to your phone that opens up the operating system. By doing this it enables you to install "tweaks" or programs that will for example speed up animations like opening/closing folders, or a program that will open up hidden settings withing the control center that Apple used to test iOS7 with. *There are many many more tweaks and things out there so customization is almost endless

You can also install themes to further customize the layout of your homescreen and/or lockscreen.

Other people use jailbreaking a phone or ipad to do other things with such as getting around having to have tethering built into your phone plan, etc.

Take a little time and google some articles on the pros of jailbreaking and what it actually is.

Programs to access phone files(tweak Zeppelin logos, adjust weather zip codes for themes, etc.)

iFunBox (Windows)

iExplorer (Mac)

Zeppelin Instructions
Once you download that you will open it up and then you will connect your phone to your Mac or PC.

Once ifunbox recognizes and loads your phone you will look down at the bottom on the left hand side of the window and look for "Raw File System". Click on that.

Once you've done that on the right you will see a bunch of folders. Look for and double click on "Library". Then look for and double click on "Zeppelin".

Now you should be seeing folders with names like Nike, Apple, Android, and some others.

Open one of those up that you don't think you would use.

Get the images you want to use whether it's the eye of the tiger images or the LSU images and put them on your desktop. Make sure that they are named dark@2x and light@2x.

If using the LSU image the gold LSU should be named dark and the purple should be named light. The eye of the tiger doesn't matter as much.

So once that's done drag and drop them in the folder you have opened. Once they are in there, right click on logo@2x and black@2x and delete them. Otherwise you will get a black and white silhouette of the images or a black and white box.

Once you've done that go into settings on your phone and scroll down to zeppelin and tap on the folder that you dropped images in. This should then replace your carrier name with the image.

iOS 7 Jailbreak Released

If you have an Apple phone, do you have to jailbreak it every time you get an update?

I'd give it a bit to be honest. Cydia hasn't been upgraded so a lot of the stuff isn't working. I'm going to wait for a week or so. I just want Bite at this point.

Thanks Lew! I haven't seen anything on twitter or modmyi that they were even close to a release. I'll go ahead and JB though and be ready for everything to get rolled out.

Yeah me too. I'm hoping zeppelin gets updated quick. Ready to get rid of the AT&T carrier logo and replace it with a custom one. Also a new theme would be great along with BiteSMS
