I posted this before, but got no response: I'm trying to do the app backup with the command lines and it's not working. I made the packages.txt beforehand and luckily I copied it to my desktop because it was erased with everything else (that should be added to the OP). I copied it back over and used the Terminal in WinSCP. I ran the next two lines and it says it will update the apps. Then I get an error saying there is no response from the host. I made it so the screen won't go black like I read in the thread, but still nothing.

Pushed the Calendar Colors fix to Big Boss so whenever they do a refresh it should show up for anyone having issues.

Richman777 posted:I also made a windows app that will back up your applications like angry birds or whatever. I know when I do a new jailbreak I want to do a clean install without a backup and it's always a PITA to manually find the documents or library folder for each app so I made something to automatically do it. It also overwrites the biteSMS icons with whatever you want (the pink icons suck), transfers SBSettings icons, and backs ups and restores your safari bookmarks. If anyone is interested I'll post the binaries and also put it up on github. Is there a writeup somewhere online thats a total noob guide to the iPhone filesystem layout? I'd like to know which directories DataDeposit sends to DropBox, and I'd also like to know where the text msg database is stored.

Text message is easy, it's /private/var/mobile/Library/SMS/sms.db on the device, or 3d0d... in your MobileSync backup folder on your PC/Mac.

Just go in there and start searching around... you can build your location db and start doing locates for things that may be named something. Edit: For the most part, I'm pretty sure this is how most iOS devs work. Making the custom menus for the Calendar Colors was basically read a ton of un-documented header files till I figured out what was going on. Going through the header files and figuring out what the method does....exciting. Richman777 fucked around with this message at 19:09 on Jul 26, 2011 |

Has anyone experienced any problems with Navigate From Maps recently? Lately I've been having an issue where it refuses to plug the whole address in- for example if I'm looking up the Starbucks on 1234 Main St, pressing the "Navigate Here" button opens up TomTom like normal, but then it just displays "Main St" as the destination to travel to, not the specific address. iPhone 4 here, JBme jailbreak on 4.3.3 although it was doing the same thing for a while when I was on 4.2.1 with greenpoison.

Nope - that's it. Jailbreaking your phone means rooting your phone and removing the check that software is signed. Basically once you have root access you can do whatever you want on an iPhone and they use that to remove codesign checks. So yeah, that's it.

One of the jailbreak dudes made a hack to make Facebook's iPad app work again. Its called FaceForward. Good on them! Anyway I installed it today and FB app on iPad is pretty not bad. Except how atrocious the comments column is. You press on show comments or whatever and you get a right aligned column overlay (not unlike Twitter for iPad) but it's narrow and you have to drag-scroll offscreen to see the cut off comment. REALLY lame. (then again, this app wasn't meant for primetime obviously, soooo....)

I just bought an iPad 2 on 4.3. I've been trying all day to update it to 4.3.3 but once it gets to the "preparing iPad for restore" stage it hangs for a while until an error window pops up. Also running the most recent version of tiny umbrella. Is this possible?

Apple is no longer signing SHSH blobs for 4.3.3 so unless you had those saved previously, you're not going to be able to update to it.

Just to expand on this so there's no bad information - you can't save the blobs if Apple isn't signing them. Once they stop signing 4.3.3, you can get the ECID (and the other identifiers that make up the blobs for the device) but Apple won't generate the response when you contact their TSS server.

My MacBook is on the verge of giving out. I bought an iPad in hopes that I could use it as a desktop replacement. I've set up logmein ignition so I still have access to my MB. Tweaks like btstack, activator and sbsettings are essential to me in order to at least give the iPad a chance of replacing my mobile computer. I stumbled across a potential solution for iPad 2 users looking to jailbreak. I will give it a shot once I get home, but am a little skeptical of jumping to 4.3.5 if it doesn't work out. mister ginger fucked around with this message at 18:34 on Jul 27, 2011 |

He left out the fact that you need to have saved the SHSH blob for the firmware you want to downgrade to for his guide to work. edit: oh wait, he didn't leave that out, it's the second sentence

Unless something has changed, you're still pointing it to Sauriks server, which is where cached BLOBS would be stored. If your SHSH isn't stored on Saurik's server, you're still SOL. Unless, somehow, magically, Saurik added a feature that enables him to sign older software.

Man you sound like you're in way over your head. If an iPad is "worthless" to you without jailbreaking and you don't understand how SHSH blobs work or anything then maybe you ought to just opt out of it all now. Buy a netbook or something. Used, old Macbook that still works. I dunno, dude.

Is there any way to get a BT KB and mouse to work at the same time other than buying the $5 btstack keyboard app? iOS already supports keyboards, it seems silly to spend $5 to do something that's free and included with the iPad.

Can you guys do a sanity check on my procedure for downgrading my old iPhone 3G to 3.1.3: 1. Load TinyUmbrella making sure to uncheck the Set Hosts to Cydia on Exit option 2. Launch iTunes and Restore 3.1.3 3. Load Spirit and jailbreak. How does that look?

mister ginger posted:He does mention blobs but at no point during the tutorial does he bring them into play. Sorry dude but you have no clue how the hell this process works. We do.... To restore to ANY older version you must have previously saved SHSH blobs for your device. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about this. Apple has implemented a (lovely) challenge response model for installing iOS. 1) You plug in your iPhone to a computer. You eitehr click upgrade/restore/or shift click either and point to an IPSW file. 2) iTunes reads that IPSW file and gets a version out of it. You can't fake this version. 3) iTunes gets your unique device id, again, can't be faked, and couples that with the iOS version number and submits a request to a server. 4) The server (whichever one it is talking to), sends back encoded SHSH blobs for the device which iTunes verifies are cryptographically correct for the device/id combo. (basic private/public key cryptography here). 5) If the keys are cryptographically sound, iTunes will install the iOS software and your'e on your way. In #4, iTunes will only respond with valid keys for certain (the latest) versions. Where TinyUmbrella and Saurik's server come into play is between 3 and 4. All they do is send a fake request for your device, record the response from the real Apple server and whenever you need to do a downgrade in the future, perform a replay attack. They just spit out what Apple would have responded with for the correct keys. iTunes verifies the private key using the public key it has and it installs the old version. You have made a bunch of comments (finding another iPad, getting snippy at people saying that guide is wrong) when you don't know what you're talking about. Not trying to be a dick but we're telling you that it's near impossible to get an iPad 2 right now that can be jailbroken. I should note, that moving forward this process is likely going to get more complicated. Apple has started checking that your baseband version matches the iOS version being installed and once your baseband has been updated, you can't go back. Meaning, any downgrade requests will fail because the baseband is a newer/non-matching one for the iOS version your'e installing. This is why the iPad 2 has some issues downgrading ATM.

Perhaps this issue has been settled long ago, but I recall people complaining that their screen would become unresponsive while receiving a phone call from anything but the lock screen. I hadn't been affected by that issue, but it's popped up frequently and I'm missing calls because of it. Has anyone encountered a fix for this? I've got an iphone 4 running 4.3.3, untethered jailbreak via redsn0w.

I have an original, old-bootrom 3GS with all SHSH blobs saved all the way back to 3.1. The phone is currently on 4.3.3, and jailbroken using jailbreakme.com. It's never been unlocked before, and I'm pretty sure it has the most recent baseband. According to this article, it's technically possible to unlock my phone, but I've heard bad things in this thread about installing an iPad baseband. I'm guessing that there's no other way to unlock the phone, even via downgrading. Correct? I'd really like to have cell service while I'm overseas in October, but it doesn't sound like it's gonna happen.

You can buy an old quad band unlocked RAZR on ebay for ~50$ if all you want is a phone while you travel. The only phone the iPad hack should be installed on (IMO) is the 3G, since its end of life. I assume you mean you don't want to roam? Because you'll more than likely get reception.

Well, my 3GS isn't end of life, but it's definitely going to be at the end of it's usefulness by October. I'll have probably upgraded to the 5 at that point, but was hoping to use the 3GS as a cheap way to stay in contact with some people/work, as well as posting random pictures of our vacation. That and the usual iPhone sort of things that are helpful. status posted:It just makes future upgrades a pain. I never ran into the GPS issue that has been reported. Results may vary I guess. That's good to know. I'd like GPS capability, but it's not necessary. Can someone explain what I would do after I unlock the phone? I'll be going to Italy, Greece, and Turkey. Would I just try to find a prepaid sim at each location?

Greece and Italy are super easy (I'd just get a Vodafone and WIND SIM respectively, should be ~20EUR and give you gigs of data) but Turkey has some weird thing where IMEIs have to be registered with the government if you're there for more than 2 weeks. This guide for Turkcell will probably help.

My family is going to Switzerland for 2 weeks. I was content to just turn my phone off (Data and voice). But my Sister just told me that Apple now can unlock your iPhone. I've got it Jailbroken and don't want to muck with that 2 days before I leave. here's my question: As a jailbroken dude on umm... 4.3.3 who has never unlocked... can I unlock now? And bonus question, which may be better for another thread: Can I get a prepaid MICROSIM in Switzerland?
