The Five Icon Dock is back with Customize 2.0.0RC1

SpicyChicken has updated its customization tool for the iPhone appropriately called Customize to version 2.0.0RC1. This update included a new addition to customize, Freeboard.

Freeboard is set to replace Summerboard and comes bundled with Customize 2.0.0RC1 and between the two they now have all the features of Summerboard built right in along with the great custom features and system tweaks that Customize allows.

I simply updated my Customize and already had Summerboard disabled in Customize. I have not uninstalled Summerboard yet, but I am thinking about it as I am not really ever using it anymore. One thing I did notice is that my vWallpaper no longer works, no matter what settings I try for wallpaper settings in both Customize and Summerboard, it was working before, but that is a small issue.

What has been included, and I know was a dearly missed feature, is Five Icon Dock is back, and it works marvelously. Here are a few screenshots. Customize 2.0.0RC1 can be found on Installer on your iPhone. I would suggest installing OpenSSH before your install or upgrade as some users have had issues with Customize clashing with other apps that edit the SpringBoard.plist file.

If you are having any issues with Customize, please check out this thread on Hackint0sh.

EDIT -Don NOT UPGRADE TO v2.0.0RC1Fix - it f’d up my iPhone

Well, they couldn’t leave good alone. Obviously becuase of probelms other users were having, Customize was updated to v2.0.0RC1Fix and it didn’t fix anything for me, infact, it caused me to get the Spinning Wheel of Death!

I am restoring my iPhone now because of it, bah… Reminds me of why I am hoping that Apps from the AppStore are more stable and tested.
