Jailbreak Only: Dialer Shield - Never Accidentally End A Call Ever Again

If you're continually ending calls accidentally on your jailbroken iPhone, consider purchasing Dialer Shield. This $1.49 jailbreak tweak adds two locks to the call screen - sliding one right ends the call, and sliding the other left activates the touch screen.
While Apple reportedly fixed the iPhone 4's proximity sensor bug in a software update, many users still accidentally interact with the handset's touch screen when making calls - which is annoying. Dialer Shield aims to build upon the thought of other jailbreak tweaks (like CallLock) in offering a solution to this issue. However, Dialer Shield is a little different.
Unlike Call Lock, which simply adds a lock to the call screen, Dialer Shield adds two. If you slide one of them to the right, you end your call. And if you slide the other to the left, you activate the touch screen.
For the privilege of a second lock, jailbreak fans have to pay an extra $0.50: While CallLock can be purchased and downloaded for a dollar, Dialer Shield is a little more expensive, at $1.49. Both packages are available in the Cydia Store now. Let us know which you prefer in the comments.
