Setting up iOS 4.2.1

I had 2 tasks worthy of a blog post.

1. Update Built-in Calendar Colors
In the past I've used sqlite running on the phone to do this but it's no longer available in Cydia. Instead I decided to use MacFUSE+Macfusion to mount the iphone's file system in mac os. I then used the great SQLite Manager addon for Firefox to open the calendar database file and make the changes from there.

2. Find applications to save/restore.
Here's the grep line I used to find the application data I wanted to save/restore.
cd ~mobile/Applications
grep -i "angry birds" */iTunesMetadata.plist
