Huh, this is weird. A whole back I posted how I was having issues loading/logging in to SA using Safari. Well I narrowed it down to the goddamn network of all things.

When I'm on AT&T, I can't log in to SA at all. I can't either tether and log in on my iPad either. The second I join any wifi network, the log in goes through without issue. SA is the only site this happens with. Hell, it's not even me getting logged out. I'm on 4G - I get the "you need to log in". I turn on wifi, refresh the page and in already logged in and SA loads so it's like the cookie or whatever is there on my phone but it doesn't see it while I'm in the network.

The gently caress?

Yeah, I grabbed it earlier this week. It's pretty nice and is about 90% there in terms of features. The only thing I wish it did is push down widgets that are below it when you tap to show the controls instead of sliding the controls over the widgets below.

Just looked at it again. It works fine on the regular notification center; just not quite right on LockInfo.

Is there any way to override my car stereo from taking control over my music app?

It's a really lovely implementation but I like that I can skip songs with my steering wheel. It just has this nasty habit of starting the songs in alphabetical order and it can only support up to 100 songs in a playlist.

Try NoAccSplash, assuming you're on 5.x. I think the 4.x version is called NoAccessorySplash.

Stupid question but did you go into the Sparrow+ settings and turn on the 'Default Mail' option? I'm running the latest version of Sparrow, Sparrow Push and Sparrow+. No issues with either Lockinfo or notification center after testing just now.

Other than that, I can't think of what would be causing the issue.

I just updated and added a bunch of poo poo to the Goony Jailbreak Recommended Apps and Compatibility Info Spreadsheet Thing.

I had to leave "?" in the "price" column for some because, oddly, Cydia won't show me the price of a thing I've already purchased :( so if someone can fill in some of those that'd be nice.

Use the aptbackup dpkg method explained in the OP. At the very least usee AppList to generate and email yourself a list. Personally that's what I do, especially when going to a new iOS / JB version, since you never know which apps haven't been updated yet and may cause issues.

Hey, man, I distinctly remember this being an episode of Spongebob. :colbert:

So I was trying to install Siriport on my iPod and rather than digging back through the thread, I just googled "siriport" and wound up downloading, installing, and running "i4Siri." It seems to have worked, except that Siri doesn't do anything other than tell me she can't help me right now. Installed, rebooted, installed their certificate, rebooted, turned Siri on and made sure that Spire had the correct proxy according to them (https://i4siri.chickenkiller.com:4443).

Been playing with it for about an hour and she won't respond to anything. Anyone know what might be wrong? Anyone else using this version/certificate/proxy?

I did go back and found out that the version people were discussing was at siriport.ru, not siriport.com, and I planned on uninstalling spire/i4Siri and installing whatever package that site offered, but their repo is totally empty.

The app or the command line tool via ssh? I could never get any app backup tools to work properly, but the SSH/dpkg method in the OP always works.

I'm starting to get frustrated with how slow my iPhone 4 runs, and I'm starting to think that I need to un-jailbreak. Is there a way to test beforehand, if it really is something on the JB that is causing this? What jailbreak features are notorious for slowing you down? (I already know the obvious Winterboard.)

My problem is slowdown during transitions, or loading. Apps themselves can run fine once they warm up. But closing apps can be sluggish, or moving through the Springboard after doing so. The Maps app is slow. Turning the system to sleep can sometimes take seconds to go through.

Yeah this is odd. Sparrow also isn't showing up in the notification menu even though Sparrow Push is installed. Do I have to turn on Sparrow Push as well? I'm running 5.1.1 by the way.

Try it with Sparrow push because looking through my stock mail and Sparrow settings, I'm not finding anything else about notifications. Lockinfo doesn't seem to have anything either.

Are you on 5.1.1 or an earlier version? Mine was being sluggish on 5.0.1, although not quite that bad. It went back to normal speed after I restored to stock 5.1.1 and jailbroke again.

I find most themes absolutely terrible. One that looked nice to me was Genesis. They tried to stay close to the original Apple design, yet make it different enough to give your device a slightly fresh look.

Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of all the icons, nor the fact that I had to update names to make it work with iOS 5.1.1, or that it didn't work at all on my 3GS or iPad 2... So I went through the entire theme and tweaked it, changed it, re-saved it, and expanded what devices it supports.



I have the "Genesis XdN Remix" package on my repo, cydia.xenomorph.net if anyone wants to try it out. (iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, 4S, iPad 1, and 2 on iOS 5.1.1.)

I don't know if this exists, but is there something that will let me set language on an app by app basis?

I live in Korea, so I'd like to have my contacts and a few apps sort by Korean. If the device is in English, all my Korean contacts are just under the # sign and not separated right. In Korean everything is fine. But with the device in Korean, my music sucks because the easy-scroll thing is only half English, even though 90% of my music is English.

So is there any jailbreak thing that will let me set contacts and a few other apps for Korean, and keep everything else English? Or vice versa?

I am surprised at how bad the themes are I found so far. As a former Android user I love the themes for the MIUI ROM. While Android had some very bad themes, they also had some amazing themes. Am I missing something in relation to the iPhone? I feel like it is my fault since I am new to iPhone jailbreaking and I don't know where to look. XDA was an amazing website for Android users, but I can't find anything like that for iPhone. The ones I do find have so-so themes, and incomplete information.

Can someone point me to the amazing themes for iPhone please or am I chasing a ghost?

There is a good decent website for iOS and Mac themeing: macthemes.net/forum.

If you go into the iOS Discussion part, there are two threads that are good to browse. The iPhone screenshot thread, and the iPhone request thread. Usually people will give links to links of stuff they've used. If you find anything you like, it's relatively easy to find it online.

As far as good themes go, Genesis has always been a favorite of mine. Riddeam is good, Jaku is fairly decent, but I'm still unsure about it. You can find good stuff, you just have to dig a little.

Glaskart was good a year ago when I gave a poo poo about trying to skin.

Problem is that you'll have apps that aren't skinned and it throws the whole idea off. If this has changed please let me know but I don't think it can.

Glaskart is definitely one of the ones that are a pain in the rear end because you have to have every icon themed or it won't look right. Most of the themes I like, and have used, I've been able to have a few stock icons showing and it look just fine.

On the MacThemes Forum I found the type of themes I was looking for. Many of them are like the themes found for the MIUI ROM I was to run on my EVO. Makes sense since MIUI is a iOS like ROM and I knew bits and pieces from some of the themes came from iPhone themes. Of course just like on XDA, posters not saying what theme they are using in most cases. Urg...

Just one more question is there a app that allows you to control placement of folders and icons on your homescreen?. What I mean is maybe I want only one icon on my main screen that is on the right corner.

Edit: The Jaku theme is very nice.

It's always been that way. WiFi stays on when the phone is plugged in regardless of sleep status, but when the phone is unplugged, to save power, it shuts off when the phone goes to sleep.

Thank you for the info, checked the OP and that was in the instructions, guess I missed that discussion. Downloading 5.1.1 now so we'll see how it goes. I started to figure that it wasn't ever going to stop spinning so I just hard rebooted and went back to the old setup.
