As I use iPhone daily, I noticed a few things that could be tweaked which I think could really make my life easier. So I didn't update to latest iOS on purpose, to keep possibility to jailbreak my iPhone 4S and add some tweaks to it. However, after researching a bit what stuff there is for jailbroken iPhones, I'm not sure that the things I want are really available. So I'm asking for your help, to guide me whether tweaks exist and what are best ones for the following things:

1. I want some reminders to stick constantly on lock screen until I manually dismiss them (i.e. go in app and press a button). They shouldn't disappear just because I unlocked the phone.

2. I want lock screen to display not only passed notifications, but also next few that are upcoming

3. I want to set up some reminders to act like the alarm clock currently acts in factory iOS - i.e. ignore silent switch and play sound continiously until I acknowledge it.

4. I want to have some frequently used actions right from notification center without going to separate app. Examples are: Google/Wikipedia search (that will turn notification panel into a Safari window), set up new reminder, add a new note.

Thanks for your help.
 
I think Lockinfo 5 could could do some of what you want. However, your 4th request I don't even think is possible due to the way iOS handles multitasking.
 
I'm on iOS 6.1.2
About 4th request, I've seen some apps that can open a little Safari window inside of them without multitasking, so I thought that maybe that was possible for notification center too. Essentially I want something like Velox tweak, but accessible inside notification center, not on home screen.
 
Lockinfo 5 should take care of 1 and 2 for you.

3) I don't really know... never had to try something like that.

4) There is a widget that I saw in the homescreen and lockinfo thread that should be what you're looking for. Don't know what it's called, but I am interested in it too. Just can be incorporated in lockinfo and notification centre. Of course this is only for the reminder and note. Haven't seen anything for google Wikipedia that would open within NC.

Here's how I have my LockInfo screen set up
