Callbar is a tweak quite old released in Cydia a few good weeks ago for iPhone terminals. Using it, we eliminate the interface that appears when we have an incoming call on our phones, the screen being replaced with a banner-type notification displayed at the top of the screen. Above you have a presentation image of version 2.0 of the tweak, version that was released during this day in Cydia's BigBoss repo. The tweak allows us to reject/accept a call through that banner, turn on/off the loudspeaker and mute a call, all without closing any application we have open at the time of receiving the call.
New Features:
- iOS 6 support
- Integrated iOS 6's “Reply with Message” and “Remind Me Later” hangup options. Tap the phone or FaceTime icon on the incoming call banner to view the options menu
- iOS 6 "Reply with Message" and "Remind Me Later" options available for iOS 5 users too. Ability to define reply messages for when hanging up a call in Settings.
- Call-back options scrollview added to lock screen.
- Dismiss view on lock screen changed to table cell
- Added option to use CallBar for all outgoing calls, including phone numbers on pages, dial commands from Siri and Bluetooth headsets.
- Improved visual representation of remote calling party
- Added tap to answer. Swiping right on incoming call banner still answers.
- Added color options for extra views and the keypad in Settings
- Improved minimized view
- Improved show/hide animations
- No longer rings after the call has been dismissed once
- Adjusted the label's width to fit the screen and display more text if needed.
- Improved tap handling on banners with excellent precision
- Removed buttons for incoming call banners
- Drastically improved all UI, buttons, backgrounds, labels, etc.
- Removed Skype and Viber handling
- Added DTMF commands handling to Dialer (eg *#06#)

CallBar works with phone calls received through the Phone application, but also with calls received through FaceTime, Skype or Viber. CallBar only works with iOS 5/6, and in Cydia you can find it in the BigBoss repo where it costs $3.99.
