I can't get Backgrounder app works on iOS 5.0.1 JB-ed version. sad.gif The multitasking gesture terminates and suspends all my apps running on background.

I remember when I was using the 3.2.2 and had Backgrounder installed in it, everything worked well.

I must admit it is one of my most useful apps but too bad once I updated my iPad to 5.0.1 JB-ed version, it crashes every single time I tried to run it. I have to get into Safe Mode to delete it from Cydia.

Anybody has the same encounter as mine?

I wanted to try MTG but it is terminating every single of my apps running on background when I switched app by pressing twice home button. Every time I switched to the other app and jumped back to the earlier app, whatever I had ran in background disappeared and I had to start all over again. This is useful when I'm reading via iBooks.

Or am I missing some steps on MTG? Please bear with me as it is my first time using MTG and have spent quite some times reading MTG tutorial but doesn't seem to work that well.

I already encountered the same problem as you when I JB on ios5. So I just don't use the Backgrounder.
The MTG is actually functioned the same way as you press twice the home button to switch application. It switch between the task and kept the un-active task in 'native' mode (not running)

Found another workaround for iBooks crash issue, apparently it works for my sister's iPad, finally. So, I'll be summarizing two solutions into one post.

Try at your own risk.

Solution 1 - iDonnie from Macrumors.com
0. Delete iBooks and/or every other patch/patches on your iDevice.
1. Install a clean iBooks from the App Store and then restart your phone.
2. Install the iBooks Fix2 from the insanely repository.
3. Respring the iDevice.
4. The Springboard now should crash and go in safe mode (i don't know why, but the only time it crashed and went in safe mode it worked for me), so if it doesn't crash go in safe mode.
5. Restart the phone.
6. Now iBooks will work (at least it worked for me).

Solution 2 - From Jailbreak.com (Make sure to have SBSettings installed first)
0. Delete iBooks and/or every other patch/patches on your iDevice.
1. Open SBSettings > Scroll down to bottom > System Wide Options > System Options > Fix User Dir Permissions > Fix Me
2. Follow step 1-5 from this link: http://www.ijailbreak.com/how-to/fix-ibook...0-1-untethered/
3. Respring and now iBooks app icon should appear on your springboard.

p/s: I don't need to go until step 6 from what shown on the site. I managed to get and throw all my PDF stuffs into iBooks and now I'm reading happily on my sister's iPad. smile.gif

Actually why do we need ibook ah? If you read pdf a lot, I suggest to get Adobe Reader from app store, it's free.

Eh sorry, typo error, untethered is correct. My iPad is on untethered jb now.

I use surf FB using safari browser. With this updated safari, the YouTube videos posted in FB wall didn't get resized and it blocks the post below. Previous 4.3.3 safari doesn't have this problem.

use facebook apps instead
