For those who are on iOS 7 (7.0.x - 7.0.6) This is the jailbreak you should use for your device if it's NOT jailbroken.

I don't have an iPad so unfortunately I'll be posting tweaks that are ipod/iphone compatible. The following tweaks could be iPad compatible I just have no way to make sure it works smoothly.
Please keep in mind that some tweaks might work better on the iPhone compared to an iPod.

[TUT]Is your device slow/has issues? You want to restore but you're afraid to lose your jailbreak? Open this.
If you want to restore your device because it has issues but you're afraid to lose your jailbreak, download this. (Only compatible with windows for now but the developer is working on the OSX and Linus release.

Basically this will restore your device while keeping your jailbreak. It will be like restoring your device through iTunes, while keeping your jailbreak. You will have to re-install your tweaks. This will keep you on the same firmware you were at. it cannot downgrade or update your device.
Make sure you make a backup through iCloud/itunes and sync your phone because you will be restoring your device.

Close background apps the smart way. Basically, this is very good if you feel your battery dies very quickly. When you lock your phone this tweak will put all your apps in a freeze-type mode meaning they won't be running therefore, you will save your battery. I did find a difference after downloading this tweak. I would recommend it.

SSLPatch

There was a security flaw in devices that are still below 7.0.6. This basically adds the patch that was added with the 7.0.6 update. You should really get this, just to be safe.

This is so cool. If the lock password is entered wrong it will take a picture with the front camera (if available) and send it to the email with information like location and a map! There's also a Pro version with even more options. I absolutely love this tweak.

I absolutely love this. This basically warms your screen to match the lighting at night. Meaning if you hard time looking at your screen during the night because it's too bright/white this will make a warmer color either automatically or of your choice. Really cool tweak.

Thank you!
And hang in there there's already an exploit for 7.1 on the iphone 4.
Make sure you don't upgrade to future firmwares since this will decrease your chances to jailbreak again.
