you’re most welcome. i’m your big fan 😉
These instructions don’t seem to work for me. I’ve added the repository, I installed ProSwitcher, and I’ve set it to activate when I double-tap the home button. But when I do that the default action for the home button triggers instead of ProSwitcher. Is there something I’m missing?
ProSwitcher is out of beta now..
try the v1.0:
http://www.iphoneheat.com/2009/12/download-proswitcher-1-0-out-of-beta-now/
Go to Settings > ProSwitcher and set the Activation Method first
Do you mean with backgrounder app just the normal winterboard or something else?
