I would like to preserve the stock look of my iphone, but still have ssh and installer installed in case i need them. Whats the best way to hide all the 3rd party icons. I know it possible to do it with customize and a xlauncher etc, but then you are left with those icons.
Is there a command or something that i can run from my computer to hide/unhide icons??

I'm glad you asked!

TUAW's very own Erica Sadun has posted on how to do this just today. The comments are helpful too: http://www.tuaw.com/2007/11/29/enabl...n-your-iphone/



Alternatively, I think summerboard (get it via installer) lets you hide apps.

I'm not sure how i would get that solution to work, I'm not that technically adept with my iphone.
Do you have any idea?
And if i were to use Summerboard, wouldn't the summerboard icon still show up afterwards?

I looked that TUAW article over this morning. And would not recomend as nice as it sounds something isnt quiet on the mark there.

There should have been a warning like with a few of Erica Sudan things. Which do work but only for very technical adept folks.
