Activator It is an application that if you have jailbroken your iPhone you will surely have it installed, since most mods make use of it, it allows you assign gestures to perform actions, so you can do certain things that you do very often in a much faster way.
As many people are unaware of the possibilities of this application, you can configure a multitude of gestures that can make the use of your iPhone much more comfortable for yourself, in the video I show you how I use it, surely others will get even more out of it than me, but Surely many of you discover a multitude of possibilities that you did not know.
Just yesterday it was updated with new gestures and less memory consumption. If you don't have it installed on your jailbroken iPhone, don't wait any longer.
At the beginning of the video you make a mistake ... The gesture of swiping down from the status bar does not replace the gesture for the notification center. That gesture by default cannot be supplanted, that is, for many actions that you put in Activator, the gesture of sliding down from the status bar will always activate the notification center, in addition to the action that you have put in Activator.
I have never tried to change that gesture, the truth is, it seems to me the most comfortable, I understood that in the latest versions it could be supplanted by changing the gesture of the notification center in the activator options, but I suppose it will not be like that.
Indeed, many MANY things can be done; along with SBSettings is my musthave and they are the main reasons why I personally have the jb. Thanks Gnzl for the post, because everyone has apps on their terminal and they don't know what they can be used for. And the power of Activator is brutal!
a greeting
Thanks a lot. I have it but I don't take out even 1 percent of what it can do, simply out of ignorance.
good, how did you set up swipe up multitasking?
Well, in the application settings there are 3 options to swipe up, from the center, right and left, I have set all 3 as multitasking
Ok thank you !!!
They will excuse me but it is 3:21 am, I have pain in my mouth from a tailpiece extraction that does not let me sleep I decided to snoop and I found that botton home can be replaced with a gesture if I have JB and Activator installed, now the problem I don't know how the hell to use it or configure it, I want to stop using home .. Thanks for the post.
Once the JB is done (because if not, forget about Activator) and having installed the Activator from Cydia you have to click on the Activator icon that will be on the Springboard (or go to Settings -> Activator if it is not on the Springboard) and select where you want to assign a role and an action.
In this case, you should choose ANYWHERE because you want Activator to work on any screen, be it Springboard or an app. Then you must choose the place where the function will be performed and the action that you like the most to finish by selecting said action from the list of available actions. You can also configure Activator to launch an application with some gesture. Already, to the taste of the consumer.
As an example, I have configured: ANYWHERE -> STATUS BAR -> SWIPE LEFT -> START BUTTON.
in Activator "\ Anywhere \ From below \ Multitask"
Other tricks that I use are:
In Activator "\ On the home screen \ Shake device \ Lock device" so if I put it in my pocket without locking it, it locks only when walking.
in Activator "\ Anywhere \ Swipe down \ SBSettings" to show the SBSettings
and you?
I have the sbsettings integrated in the notification center, I do not configure the shaking thing because when I leave the job there are some stairs and as I look at the mobile the action is executed!
lol
to see if they take out the Untethered and I am encouraged with the iOS 5 ...
Gonzalo could you link the dock you have from dealextreme !! is that I have 3 docks to see if they are compatible with the bumper and not one… I have realized that yours is compatible with a cover. Thanks
It is compatible with a case but not with a bumper, it hooks but does not load:

The truth is that I use the Activator a lot:
- status bar swipe right: SBSettings
- Status bar slide left: action of pressing HOME button
- status bar slide down: run the Notified app
- double tap status bar: Multitask
Everything aimed at reducing the use of the HOME button of the iPhone 4 to the maximum
In which repo can I download activator? Thanks
My options
Swipe Right: SBSettings
Swipe left: biteSMS
Slide down: Notification Center
Long press status bar: Lock / Unlock rotation
Double Click status bar: Music Control Pro to show player (I don't have it now)
Press and hold volume +: next song
Press and hold volume -: previous song
Press both: Play / Pause
Press and hold HOME button: «Exit application by closing it» (Multiclear)
Swipe from the bottom: Multitask (but I find it most useful on the ipad with all 4 fingers)
Shake device: «close all applications» but in the end it was activated accidentally
Pinch icons: I have it on the ipad to exit the application and block, but I hardly use it
Gonzalo! thanks for the tutorial! One question, I really liked this transparent cover! Could you tell me where I can get it? I've been looking for a long time and this one looks sturdy and covers the entire rear
Thanks a lot!
It's from incase, I ordered it instead of the bumper a year ago
He asks, does the letter "s" not exist in Spain or do you just never pronounce it?
In Spain it does not exist. cuts due to the crisis.
That's why I can only have one iPhone 4! I don't know how to ask for the other one!
I liked the answer hah
Very good video, I have copied from some ... a question, what is the option to activate the flash?
thank you!
to get it out you have to install Springflash in Cydia, I forgot to say it!
thanks!
To me the truth the first time I did not understand it but now it prevents me from pressing the «home» button since sometimes it is difficult for me to recognize it. double pressure for multitasking.
I ask you a question, in the last update, I noticed that there were a couple of changes with the theme of the volume buttons. I had configured so that when it is locked, if I hold down the button up it changes the song, and the same if I keep it down. The problem now is that this still works but tmb turns the volume up or down. It's like both options are activated at the same time, does it happen to someone else?
Very good Gnzl thank you very much uncle I had it configured but for very little ... it makes your life easier now to use the iphone 🙂 greetings
Gnzl I am looking in my activator and I am not able to put the gesture of pinching the screen inside an application so that it closes (function of the Home button). I only have pinching / separating icons, but that's not ...
I am very interested because the less I use the home button, the better. Thanks
I have updated and I also have problems with the volume buttons
when I press the button down, which is to change the song, the volume is also lowered and in the same way up
Gnzl Do you think they fix it soon?
Dear very good video, I want to know how to activate multitasking from activator. Can you guide me please!
sds
If I want to pinch with 2 fingers to simulate home, how do I do? salu2
Friends I deleted the cydia and now the activator and Sbsetting application I can not delete them as I do
Where is the fucking video! I hate people who waste my time Fucking!
