Now that Greg (MobileCrunch) has given full instructions for jailbreaking and tethering, I thought I would give one more interesting thing you can do with a jailbroken iPhone and SSH access – change those ugly icons! “Resident theming genius” (theiphoneblog), Ally (iMuggle on TiPb Forums and in the Twitter) has begun collecting her excellent tutorials into one easy to browse place. Here’s a sample:

You need to know how to do a few things in order to do this. After jailbreaking, you need to know how to SSH into your phone. If you’re not familiar with SSH, you need to get familiar with that first. *Note: Unless you feel completely comfortable doing this, I don’t recommend it. Point being, SSH’ing will give you access to ALL of your iPhone’s core files, so deleting/editing certain files could be disastrous if you don’t know what you’re doing. If you’re still reading, and you’re okay with all of this, continue on.

Ally’s tips are definitely meant for the hardcore user. If you’re brave and use one, let us know what the tutorial was for, if you tried it, and how well it worked. We’re always on the lookout for iPhone anything!
