Is there anyway to get biteSMS and lockinfo 5 to play nice together? On my old 3gs Id get messages showing in lockinfo and opening them would bring up the bitesms quickreply. I can't figure out how to do with the new version of LI though.

Mine just works....I slide in LI5 and it opens the quick reply. I know in LI4, you'd go to the messages "widget" and modfiy what it opens there. But mine just works.

Make sure biteSMS is setup to show in lock screen in Notifications? I had to get things a certain way in Notifications for a similar setup with irealSMS.

Thanks. I suppose I could have done the same thing by replacing \r\n with \n in a text editor, but the thought never occurred. The script is behaving now. And judging by how long the script is taking to run, I guess those sleep loops really are important.

Edit: Just how long should this thing take? I've been waiting for it to complete for 10 minutes. I have already verified my phone is still responsive and that my SSH connection has not been interrupted.

Adding some debug output to each "while" loop reveals that it takes about three seconds for /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist to get created after installd is restarted, but it gets stuck waiting on /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore, which never gets created. Strange.

The script hung indefinitely for me and ended up trashing my ability to sync apps with iTunes. Manually entering the commands through SSH (ignoring the while loops) fixed everything.

Running into a problem installing a package. I did a restore to 6.1 then jailbroke, normal method and everything. Everything I've tried to install so far works fine, except for AutoProtect for iOs 6. When I try to install via Cydia I get an error during the script part of installation, and if I try to install the .deb manually via ssh I get the following. Google yields nothing related to iOS, but it does seem to find a lot of people trying to make .debs incorrectly. Is this a broken package or have I somehow hosed up my install already.

edit:

I'm a little confused because when I open the .deb for 2.0 (the iOS 6 version) the files are in control.tar.gz instead of data.tar.gz. Does this magically work on other people's phones or is everyone using a different version of Autoprotect than me? It works just fine when I recreate the .deb with the correct folder structure.

Any must-have apps/tweaks for wifi-only iPads? Specifically for someone who is not interested in themes and stuff?

Seems like all the recommended lists are really for iPhones.

I jailbreaked for XBMC. I put flux on there to try out and I'll probably put on some sort of file manager (iFiles?). Any other utilities?

This. I still have unlimited from my 3GS days and I might tether once every 3 months. My typical data usage is between 300 and 400 MB/month, so when I tether I might hit 1.0 - 1.3 GB in that month depending on the circumstances.

Always check out the devs' twitter page if they have one. It looks like it's broken and he's hoping to have a fix in the next few days.

LowPowerBanner is essential when using video apps such as XBMC.

Another one that I like to pair with XBMC is iFile and iTransmission.

Netflix + Chrome + Splashtop + IMO + Wireless Mouse gives me a touch-enabled gaming rig in a trendy tablet format. I'm the biggest fan! iOS is nice and I can see where Apple was going with it but one app at a time is pretty stupid at the end of the day.

Quasar doesn't work on iOS 6, however. It also costs money. Also because of how (poorly) iOS manages memory based on keeping one app open at a time you might not be able to run more than two or three things on older iPads. Also it hasn't been updated since mid-2012. To most people it just won't be worth it. Evaluate how strongly you feel about multi-tasking before you drop 10$ on it.

Pretty much had a perfect jailbreak. Installed a few subtle tweaks here and there but didn't deviate from the norm.

I am looking for one tweak though; if anyone is familiar with Airdroid, would there be a Similair service for a jailbroken iOS device? I'm not looking for total management of my phone over Wifi, but just the ability to text comfortably from the computer.

Like the guy up above said, do not do it much, or really at all. They have a hard on for loving over unlimited data plan users constantly.

I can use under a gb of data a month an d pretty much every halfway point of the month i get throttled down to a speed that isnt even worth it.

I did a lot of tethering a year ago and boy did they get mad, they threatened me with "we are going to put you on a data plan" poo poo like that.

So, be careful!

I'm using both NCSettings and SBsettings to turn my 3g on and off. Neither of them are working. Is this a known issue? I mean, I open both settings and switch 3g on/off but nothing happens. In my Settings, the 3g / data never changes using either of these apps.

So I ran jailbreak on my iPhone 4 (iOS 6.1) and now my Belkin Tunecast Auto doesn't seem to work properly with it anymore. I plug my phone into the 30-pin adaptor and I can play a song for about 30 seconds through the FM broadcaster then it'll just stop playing. On top of that, it wont broadcast afterwards and will just play the song through my phone's speaker unless I unplug and plug it back in. Anyone else run into this?

This might be obvious, but make sure you don't have your finger over the front camera when you turn the screen on.

I think the brightness sensitivity can glitch out, too. Try going into settings and turning it off, setting the brightness manually, then turning it back on. It seemed to fix it for me.
