A few weeks ago, RiP Dev released a little neat application named, Hood. Today, they released an update for Hood. With all new features, new icons, bug fixes and yes, of course, still free!

From RiP Dev’s blog:

• EDGE Toggle. Unlike other solutions (actually, all
  that I’ve seen around), this one disables and enables EDGE without
  touching the APN settings. For this reason, when you disable EDGE, the
  “E” icon will still be lit in the status bar (indicating that the
  network is up) but the respective service will be effectively down.
  This is much more reliable than before, and is actually the way Apple
  meant to implement it – the code hidden inside Preferences.app does the
  same.
• Settings. Now you can access settings of Hood inside of Settings > RiP Dev > Hood preference pane. Very easy and convenient.
• Process List. This feature is turned off by
  default, but you can enable it in the Settings. Hood will show a list
  of processes running on your iPhone, with the ability to quickly kill
  any of them by sliding your finger across the process name (much like
  you delete stuff in any table form on the iPhone). Be careful and don’t
  kill stuff that you don’t know, especially owned by root – or you may
  end up rebooting your iPhone!
• Assignable Buttons. Remember these four button
  slots on top? Well, instead of creating a mess by stacking 16 icons
  each doing something next to each other, we are letting you choose
  which 4 options you want. Later on, when more toggles are added in (VPN
  and SSH are next in line, by the way), you will have a wider selection.
  Assignable in Settings, as well.
• Really Quits Processes now. Version 1.0 only
  emulated the Home button press when you were hitting the Quit
  Application button. Which means – Safari, Mail.app and others were not
  completely closed (this is the same for most “other” managers too). Now
  the applications are properly killed and the memory is instantly
  released – as you can see on the pie chart.
• New Icons. Thrasos Varnava did us a big favor and made up new and improved icons for the toggles. Thank you!
• Bug fixes. Fixed a bug with Hood staying open when
  you lock the device with it open (or it auto-locks). Also fixed a few
  other cosmetic bugs.
• Still free! Hood was and will remain free and lightweight tool, thanks to your comments, support and suggestions.

Hood 1.1 is available now in the Installer.app category Utilities.
