Are there any icons or anything we can DL for it to show us when it's enabled/disabled (FW 3.0)? I've searched all through Cydia and found nothing. It's very frustrating to exit an app when you think backgrounder is on, only to have it not be, and the only way to "check" is hold the home button and see what the message says, except if you already had it enabled it disables it and exits the app. I can't believe there is no SBSetting toggle for it, Then you could just swipe open SBSettings and see if Backgrounder was on or off, that would be the most useful toggle by far.
 
There used to be an option in Backgrounder where it added a little badge to the icons of the apps that were running. I don't see that option anymore though so it's probably a limitation under 3.0. Hopefully they'll update the program because it's a very useful app.
 
I have an SBsettings toggle for it. It's called "Processes" and it lists everything running, lets you end any process you want, and has a "Free up Memory" button. I thought it was a standard option in SBsettings, I don't remember downloading it as an extra option or anything.
