I've tried out a lot of the apps/tweaks/packages listed here (turns out I'm treating Cydia just like the official App Store … candy land!
). I wanted to list some of my favorite apps that aren't listed in this post already. They work great on my iPad:
Browser Changer: Set your default browser (instead of Safari). Also can get an SBSettings toggle to [quickly] turn the default back to Safari … and then back to yours … then back to Safari …
BytaFont: Can change the system's fonts - includes inside Settings, Notes, etc
FolderEnhancer: Very fast-opening folders with multiple scrollable pages (fit up to 300+ apps in one folder). In addition, can change color of folder background and title.
Inspell: ABC checker. Highlights errors but does not autocorrect! You go back and fix…
Locktopus: Lock any/all apps with one password
MultiFlow: Quickly tab between multitasked apps. Shows actual app, not an icon
OpenNotifier: Put icons in your status bar for things like mail, Facebook notifications, texts, calendar notifications and phone calls. Never dismiss a pop-up and forget to go back to look at the app. If the app gets a badge - you can add it to OpenNotifier
OverBoard: Press one icon, see all your springboard pages in one glance. No scrolling through multiple pages looking for that one app…
QuickLock 2: Press the icon, put the iPad to sleep
Serious SBSettings HD: Gorgeous theme for SBSettings. Very professional-looking with a large icon set
SmartScreen for iPad iOS: Add time, calendar, email, contacts, search, quick launch bar, etc to your lockscreen (and then move them around into one or two pages)
Springtomize: Lots of tweaks available with this new app. I use it to put 6 icons per row (works well with Infiniboard)
5-Row Keyboard: Finally have numbers permanently showing on a 5th row of your stock keyboard (can customize it to show symbols instead of numbers)
Bigger Text: This was mine … I figured out how to make/load my own Winterboard theme so I could make the text on the springboards and dock larger (it'll also change the font color to any color you wish - but I like the white with my current background). I'm old, you know, and need larger print. Interested? Let me know, I'll send you the plist …

P.S. And I can so identify with Davebarrie here: Cydia tweaks [
DO] get me excited in an inappropriate way...
