After jail breaking my iPhone 5s a long time ago it seems now..

Then upgrading to the iPhone 6 plus I started looking at releasing my iPhone from Apples grip again.

After speaking to a very knowledgable member Applejuiced ~ a big thank you ~ I took the plunge this evening, and have reminded myself how restricted the iPhone is as stock (well for me anyway)

Now looking at what's new out their in regards to tweaks. #

So far I have BrowserChanger , CC Settings and BetterFiveIconDock

I personally choose not to theme out my iPhone but if any of you good people out there have a heads up on any new tweaks for a ring rusty jail breaker I'd appreciate it.
 
I too stick to tweaks and skip over theming.

Some tweaks I have would be:
Status Vol 2 - Puts the volume on the status bar.
SwipeSelection - Able to swipe on the keyboard to move cursor(?)/typing.
ReachApp - A multitasker, that allows you to use two apps at once instead of Reachability. (Using as I type this to see my tweaks in settings, haha)
HideMe8 ($) - Hide all the applications I don't use.
Activator - I use this so I don't have to press the home button, just tap it.

These are all pretty standard tweaks, but really make me enjoy using my iPhone!
 
flipcontrolcenter ( customize your control center)
Lockkeyboard (Passcode style keyboard everywhere)
Notate ( disables springboard rotation on 6+)
Mikoto ( costomize your apps and Ios)
Tinybar ( thins notification banners down to size )
VirtualHome 8 ( use touchid as home button)
 
Hi R-eu

The "ReachApp" you suggested is very useful.

Thank you. :)

Ah yes Thank you for reminding me of this one.

I've added Fascy too which I think is the replacement for Webscrollian ?

Congrats!
I too have just recently JBed after a long hiatus from JBing. (did it yesterday).

BUT after checking this forum and all the new (I haven't JB since iPhone 5) tweaks you can do, I had to do it. And now I'm loving the phone even more than before.

Here's my stuff so far (in order of importance):
