I need some help.

I jailbroke an iPad wifi with absinthe 0.4 and ever since then, every single app keeps crashing when I click on it and it randomly freezes.

I've tried restoring it, but it keeps saying that apple's servers can't be reached ..

What to do?

Hosts file is unedited, redirecting gs.apple to saurik's server gives the same error.

Ping results from both saurik's server and gs.apple.com are fine.

EDIT: It was some stupid thing from Cydia ... all good now!

Anyone know why when I try to rename a folder with folderenhancer on, the keyboard will not pop up? It sits there awaiting input but it kind of hard to type without the keyboard. I had it installed a day ago working fine, but my phone poo poo out and I just had to restore and now I have this problem, no idea why. I don't have anything else that messes with folders installed to my knowledge.

edit: Why is my iphone wigging out so much today? After a reboot it works fine.

If I restored to factory settings to get a jailbreak to work, can I then restore from backup to get everything back to the way I like it and still keep the jailbreak in tact, or am I just out of luck and need to redownload and sync everything again?

Do we have any jailbreak developers here? I want a tweak that displays upcoming calendar events for the next 2/3/4/5/whatever days and keeps them on the lockscreen at all times.

I installed Fake Location, but uninstalled it after it started complaining about the trial being expired. I still get popups notifying me that the trial has expired, despite having uninstalled it. Anyone have any idea how I can stop them?

Finally got around to buying FolderEnhancer and god drat I wish I'd done it earlier. What a fantastic utility. I wouldn't mind if the developer added custom folder icons sometime down the line but otherwise this is perfect.

Oh, and to the Calendar Colors developer that posts here sometimes, I can't seem to figure your app out. I'm guessing that I'm supposed to be going to Settings > Calendar Colors to change colors, but I just get presented with a blank screen every time, like so:



I tried reinstalling it in Cydia, but that didn't work. Any tips?

Either of these ways works:

- Restore
- Restore from Backup
- Jailbreak

I don't even see that on our goon compatibility list. I have no idea if that works with 5.x, 4.x, 3.x, etc. Its own changelog only mentions "4.2" compatibility, and that it hasn't been updated in almost a year. I do know that installing unknown and incompatible poo poo will break things, requiring a wipe & restore of your device.

Two quick questions

1) JB my Iphone 4S and the couple tracks I bought via itunes no longer play on the device, whether it's through the music player or like the djay app. Anyway to fix this?

2) Can I use itunes to get new music onto the phone now that it's jailbroken?

I remember this happening to me as well. I was reading around on their forums and the developer knows about it and I believe he said he is going to implement it into a later addition.

v:shobon:v sorry but I don't think anyone is likely to develop you a custom app for less than $8 when two very good (and reasonably-priced, in my opinion) apps already exist to meet that need and then some.

Perhaps LockInfo, IntelliScreenX, and/or BiteSMS kills this functionality, but people are aware of this feature, right? (1:40 in this video)

It works on any notification on the lock screen - whether it's the active, single modal notification, or in the scrollable list of notifications.

You should be able to pull text/messages from a backup. Look for poo poo like backup extractor or whatever new one is out. Bonus of this is that it shouldn't need a jailbreak.

This would have worked nicely in iOS 4. I even had an SQL script that would populate the names of the corresponding contact from your address book database for each of the messages. This was necessary because Apple only stored phone numbers in sms.db.



Flash forward to iOS 5, and I have no idea how to open the database. All you get is "file is encrypted or is not a database" errors. If anyone figures it out, you'd be my friend forever.

I just tested that with biteSMS installed (no Lockinfo or Intelliscreen) and it auto-opens the Quick Reply box. Thank you for pointing this out!

(I do also miss the tap-icon-to-open-text functionality and was going to post about it here, but this will be useful in the meantime.)

Does anyone know of a jailbreak app/modification that will let me fix apps in the multitask switcher? I would like to pin the Camera app in there so that double-tapping the home button will always present me with the camera button.

I know I could do things with Activator, but I specifically want to mimic the lockscreen functionality.

He's talking about the little chat bubble icon in the status bar that lets you know you've got an unread text. Before you could tap on it and it'd bring up a list of all your unread texts. Now tapping on it does nothing.

That's not really the same thing though. While impressive, it's just a web server on the iPhone that effectively lets you use the SMS app through a browser.

I got an ipad2 for Xmas, it is my first iOS thing and my first jailbreak. I've installed lockinfo and when actually waking up from being locked when I open the smartcover it always gives me a frozen screen with the keypad to enter my key, facing the wrong way. I can't interact with this screen and it unfucks itself after I hit the power button again. Then if I close the smartcover and open it again immediately I get e lockinfo screen and can unlock it as intended. What is going on here?

This happens to my girlfriend on her 3GS running 4.2.something. Drives me nuts because every time I look at her phone, I see 35 updates available. Of course it drives her more nuts because she can't update Diner Dash.

Sometimes signing in and out of the AppStore works 24% of the time.

I decided to restore - to fix that, and some other minor annoyances. But before I restored, I mass-uninstalled a bunch of jailbreak packages, and then tried updating an app. Success! One thing that caught my eye was the fact that when I tried to update one app, it gave me a warning that it was over 20 MB and it wouldn't update unless I connected to WiFi.

Clearly I uninstalled 3G Unrestrictor, which had unrestricted my App Store until this point. I never did any further testing because I'm lazy / annoyed at this point, but that potential cause really makes sense to me. More so than any other potential cause I've been able to think of.
