I know with my iPhone 3GS, I could install iOS 4.1 or 4.3.3 with the official IPSW without issue (there would be an error at the end because it couldn't install the older baseband, but it can be ignored). For 4.2.1 though, I had to use PwnageTool or sn0wbreeze to build a custom IPSW first, as something always failed when I tried to install it. I'm guessing with iOS 5.x, you just do the same thing. Run a program to build the pre-jailbroken IPSW (including Cydia), and point it to your SHSH blob. You end up with a pre-made IPSW that you can then install.

This might be the wrong place to ask, but is it possible to modify the .IPA file (or something else) to force an iPhone iOS app to run at retina resolution on my iPad 2? (without being jailbroken!) I know there are tools to resign IPA files (iResign, etc) that you can use to allow "unsigned" IPA files onto an unjailbroken phone if you have a developer license.

Nerdrock posted:apple is currently only signing 5.1 . Ok, so yes, both TinyUmbrella and Cydia have my 5.0.1 blobs, and I've tried both TU and the latest update of redsnow to upgrade/restore 5.0.1 and nothing wants to work. So far I've used TU with the TSS server and it tells me that itunes is unable to restore or upgrade, (no error number.) Next up I used redsnow to verify my blobs were all good, and stitched them into the 5.0.1 ipsw that I have. So then to try restoring to that, I put it into DFU and prep with redsnow, and I get a 1600 error. I googled for the soloution to that, and it says to turn off TU, so I turn off TU and try again, and now I'm all the way back to the 3194 error where I started  Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?e: ok so I'm a dumbass, and I was trying to load the original ipsw because I thought redsnow overwrote it when I stitched the blobs in. So tried again with the modified ipsw and got way further, then eventually it shat itself again and gave me the usual message but this time with a (1) error. The progress bar on the phone screen is about 75% done and iTunes just crashed. I just tried this again and same thing, iPhone status bar is at about 75% and iTunes says Restoring iPhone Firmware and then it dies with The iPhone could not be restored, an unknown error occurred (1) It also looks like it doesn't want to boot into anything at all anymore, and I'm going to have to try and find an old firmware to restore it to

I know it probably goes without saying, but you do have the "Set hosts to Cydia on exit" box checked off under the advanced tab in TU, right?

Yeah, I mentioned that in my first post but just realised that's on the last page. So for this page, yep unchecked that box in TU and confirmed that there's nothing in my hosts file pointing to apple.

I had all kinds of trouble jailbreaking my phone to 5.0.1 this past weekend, and it sounds like the trouble other people are having. I just gave up and updated to 5.1 and did the semitethered jailbreak. I was on 4.3.3 and my apps were horribly out of date, and iOS 5 is really nice. Super happy with it, and way easier than fiddling with 5.0.1. It's not like I don't have a computer around 24/7 anyway.

Anyone know how to make the Sparrow Push tweak vibrate only once? Or is this probably the result of mail app vibrating alongside sparrow? I like the idea of mail vibrating once and SMS twice. If it is the result of Mail app and Sparrow vibrating, how do I disable the vibrate in one of them? All I really care about is that the Sparrow app gets badges...

On 5.0.1 jailbroken (iPhone 4), is it worth it to upgrade to 5.1 in spite of the tether? 5.0.1 feels kind of sluggish for me sometimes (apps take long to load).

Anyone else been having sporadic Wifi Drops at home (or wherever) where all that could resolve it was a reboot of your phone? I'm posting in the JB thread because I honestly don't know what might have started causing it, but I've been on 5.01 for a while and this just started happening in the last 2-3 weeks or so? I don't think it's my router or internet, because rebooting my iPhone tends to sort it out.

glompix posted:I had all kinds of trouble jailbreaking my phone to 5.0.1 this past weekend, and it sounds like the trouble other people are having. Yeah, this is what I ended up doing. My half installed 5.0.1 wouldn't respond to anything I threw at it, and so when I eventually decided to give up and go back to 4.2.1 I found out that my blobs weren't actually valid, and the only ones that supposedly were valid anymore according to redsnow were 5.0.1 and 5.1  So here I am on 5.1 using the semi tethered jailbreak until I either lose my mind and try downgrading to 5.0.1 (or lower,) or the 5.1 JB comes out. I can't see it being a huge problem really. My only question now I guess: Is there any way to get Siri running on an iPhone 4 with 5.1? I tried having a look around and so far I've found i4siri/spire which refuses to download from cydia because I have 5.1 not 5.0.1, (despite saying it runs on 5.1.) Then a few other options that by the looks of the comments I've found, range from not working at all to maybe kind of working, sort of, but you have to keep saying "Hi" to siri every 20 seconds for ten minutes each day for a week... and if you do finally get it working, it then potentially secretly sends a bunch of random personal data from your phone to servers in Russia and the Ukraine where i guess they turn your angry birds high scores into some form of black magic cold fusion to raise Rasputin from the dead so he can lead the mighty resurgence of the CCCP.

I'm getting a refurbished iPad 2 today and most people who ordered one said it should come with 5.0.1. I want to jailbreak it, and I know I can never restore it back to 5.0.1, so is there any way to do any sort of backup in case I screw up the phone but stay on 5.0.1?

Vinlaen posted:I'm getting a refurbished iPad 2 today and most people who ordered one said it should come with 5.0.1. You first talk about iPad then say "scre up phone" I guess it is a typo? Anyway, if it comes with 5.0.1 you can Jailbreak right away (iclarified website for tutorial). No you can't go back to 5.0.1 or lower. If you mess up your iPad 2 it will have to be updated to 5.1 That being said, there is no way you can mess up your iPad if you make sure the things you are installing on cydia are for iOS5. Cydia has been updated, it seems, to detect your device and warn you if the tweak isn't compatible so dont worry. I had my iPad 2 on 4.3.3 and installed a ton of things and nothing wrong ever happened. 5.0.1 came out and I did the same, no crashes or anything.

Hello, I'm dumb and I need help, and I thought this thread might be the right place. Recently I lost my iPod, and I have been living without a cellphone for a couple of years. When I priced new iPods I realized that for the price of a new ipod I could buy a used iPhone off craigslist and kill two birds with one stone. So I bought a jailbroken 3gs off a guy on craigslist, but he didn't delete any of his photos or ipod tunes off it first. He's got over 1000 photos I have no interest in, but I can't seem to delete them. When I looked up iphone support, it referred to the "edit" button, but I have no such icon in the photo gallery or slide show. I connected to itunes to see if the controls were there, but I still didn't have any luck. Of course I got an "Upgrade iTunes?" pop-up (like every single time I start iTunes) but I am hesitant to agree to much of anything without knowing how bad it'll gently caress things up. Will simply synching to my own folders do the trick? I have other issues, such as being unable to connect to my own wireless router, but as I mentioned earlier, I AM pretty dumb. There is no SD card in this phone yet, does that affect these things? I literally bought it this morning, so I haven't gotten around to getting hooked up with any carriers yet. Anyways, feel free to snicker at my ignorance, but when you are done please give me some suggestions on what the hell I'm doing wrong. The goon horde has always come through for me in the past, so I feel comfortable asking you folks. Thank you!

I have 5.0.1 jailbroken on an iPhone 4S. If I want to break my jailbreak and upgrade it to 5.1, all I have to do is just hit Update on iTunes? In the past, I'd have problems with getting a jailbroken phone back to a non-jailbroken state (it would freeze up on restoring the phone).

You will have a LOT of "Other" still, but 5.1 will be installed. From there, do a backup and restore.

I have an old 3G that I am trying to use as an iPod for when I'm mowing. Every time I turn it on, it freezes at the apple logo. If I boot to recovery and try to restore 4.2.1 on it ( I jail broke it and am pretty sure that is the firmware I was on) I get "unknown error" in iTunes. Is there anything I can try to get it to boot or is it a lost cause?

In the past, I'd have problems with getting a jailbroken phone back to a non-jailbroken state (it would freeze up on restoring the phone). First of all, if you want to lose the Jailbreak and go to 5.1 then you must not know how awesome being Jailbroken is. I wouldn't have any stock iDevice, the Jailbreak is what make them awesome. Now to your question. If you've had problems updating before, that is because your HOSTS file located in c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc must be redirecting apple servers to Cydia. Go to that address and open the HOST file and delete anything that says APPLE. You should have no issues restoring to 5.1 after that. loudog999 posted:I have an old 3G that I am trying to use as an iPod for when I'm mowing. Every time I turn it on, it freezes at the apple logo.

Is there anything I can try to get it to boot or is it a lost cause? With the phone off, press and hold the HOME button. Connect phone to the PC while still pressing HOME. The phone should boot in "recovery mode" and you restore and that is it. If that doesnt work, try doing a DFU restore... check youtube videos to learn how to put phone in DFU mode and then hit RESTORE in iTunes. Latest version for iPhone 3G is 4.2.1 so you can still jailbreak that. DeMoN fucked around with this message at 06:18 on Mar 26, 2012 |

Jailbroken is awesome and I've spent around $20 on cydia apps, but stability is a little more important to me. I've dumped well over $100 into Cydia apps, and I had no trouble wiping and putting 5.1 on my 4S. Things feel quicker, I know something like ~75 bugs and security issues were patched, I have a few new features (slide to open camera, Safari doesn't open to bookmarks, a sweet 4G indicator), plus my battery life seems a bit better. Then again, I still have the USB iTether app available, and my old 3GS if I REALLY need to use MyWi.

Has anyone tried SleepFX? It adds screen effects when your phone's screen goes off. Sounds like just the gimmick my iPhone needs! But its 5 bucks... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3L_lEbmj9I The TV Tube effect looks very cool.

Aside from having to respring to make changes (or it stops working) it's pretty good. TVTube and Fading Tiles are the best. The rest are just kindof "ok" effects like page curls and spins and stuff. TV Tube wins though, with Fading Tiles a close second.

Yeah it's worth pointing out that SleepFX has like 8-10 effects, but only 2 (in my opinion, anyway,) are really cool. So free for the coolest one of all is better than 5 bucks for the cool one and the second most cool one and like 8 other much less impressive ones.

I suppose I should say "buyer Beware" though, for SleepFX. iPhone 4S here. 5.0.1 jailbroken. The effect seems to stop working occasionally. I think respringing helps. But if it doesn't always work...what's the point?
