Still having problems with Folder Enhancer. All of my settings from a year ago are still in my phone somewhere, so whenever I install Folder Enhancer or 5 icon dock or anything, all of my icons just get tossed all over the place.

Is there a way I can use iFile to delete whatever is causing it to do that? I uninstalled and went through and deleted everything with the phrase Folder Enhancer that I could find, but it still did it after reinstalling.

This is interesting:

I created a fresh backup and copied it just in case (C:\Users\voltron\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup). I deleted the folders mentioned above via iFunBox. I jumped back into iTunes and performed another backup.

iFunBox said the attachment folder above was 860MB.
The "Other" in iTunes dropped by a similar amount (2.9GB to 2.1GB)
My backup folder was previously 1.2GB and also dropped by a similar amount to 400MB.

I was looking through some of the SMS pics from the first day I got my iPhone 5, I can't believe it seems to all be there!

Neat! Finally seems like a legit way to take care of "Other" if you send a lot of pics via SMS.

I got rid of 1.5 gigs of "other" with this method:

Go to Settings > General > Usage

Find "Music"

Swipe & Delete "Music"

Reboot.

Now, you'd think this would delete all the music on your device, but it didn't for me. It did clear out a TON of "Other."

e: I tried this on 6.0.1 and it worked fine. Just tried it on my roommate's 6.1 phone and it DID delete his music in addition to some "Other." So be smart, back up, use iCloud/iTunes Match/whatever you need to preserve your data in case something goes wrong.

I can't attest to whether it works or not, but Springtomize seems to have a backup/restore option for icon/folder layouts.

What fascists eat for breakfast.
Have any people in the UK had the iPlayer app break since jailbreaking? When I select a programme/radio show, it doesn't stream and sits there with the round 'waiting' icon rolling indefinitely. On iPad, if that makes a difference. The app is working on my non-jailbroken iPhone, so presumably not a problem on their end.

I'm okay to make the move from jailbroken 5.1 to jailbroken 6.1 without any risk of losing the factory unlock, right? This is an iPhone 4S.

Edit: Never mind, got my answer when iTunes told me "Congratulations, you're unlocked" during my restore.

Yes you can and deleting that plist file will fix all your issues. I was also having some weird bugs with springtomize 2 and clearing the plist file fixed them all. In fact its not a bad idea running through the plist files and clearing ones out that you no longer use, i had a poo poo ton. Just be careful with what ya delete, everything past com.apple is jailbreak related I believe. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

You can find the file here: /var/mobile/library/preferences jp.ashikase.folderenhancer.plist

If you need to delete the springtomize plist the file name is: com.filippobiga.springtomize.plist (its in the same location as the previous plist file)

You can do this using, ifile, mobile terminal or ssh.

Tried on my JB iPhone 5 and it works, may be an iPad issue but I've had times in the past with iPlayer before JB and it hasn't loaded a particular programme until I try again later. Is it all programmes?

Try downloading xCon and see if that helps.

Well, I just found out the Weather app "fix" is temporary. My weather app stopped working, again.
Also, I must have rebooted 8 times yesterday after installing stuff. The "hang on boot" thing is nasty.

The evad3rs team swears they know how to fix it (Weather and hang on boot). It's been over 19 hours since they last posted any update, though. :(

I want to jailbreak a few more devices, but I want these issues worked out, first. My wife wants some of her favorite tweaks back, but there's no way I'm going to let her go out somewhere when she may not be able to get her phone to boot up.

Don't be sad that I am gone.
Just had the strangest thing happen on my iPhone 5. When I jailbroke it Monday I put bitesms, lockinfo, and 5 icon dock on it. When it rebooted it threw a number of apps out of their folders and I spent quite a while reorganizing. This morning I sent a text and the phone crashed and rebooted (which took like 5 minutes). When it came back up it had my apps in the original state...and the five icon dock/lockinfo were gone. Literally gone, not even on the manage screen in cydia. Almost like the phone restored itself.

Springtomize doesn't seem to be speeding up animations for me like fakeclockup did. Launching/switching are still the same slow speed, while other things like the wait dial are faster.

Kinda of crazy how an animation speed change makes the phone perceptively faster.

Thanks, but I really just want it gone entirely and it's driving me up the drat wall that either I'm an idiot and can't find the clearly labeled 'OFF' which almost certainly exists, or that it just never occurred to the guy that people wouldn't want it. I mean there's a settings field currently saying 'Show On Lock: Nothing', and it's still there. I use AndroidLock, and when the bar is down, I can't tell it to retract since it's in the unlock pattern field, which exists in a layer above it.

It's 100% not an option at this point. Stimpy/David Ashman is a really good developer and ALWAYS has listened to feedback. With that said, the way LI 4 worked is not coming back. That doesn't mean he's not open to suggestions. He had a blog post last night about the direction of Lock Info and he's right on a lot of points:

http://blog.dba-technologies.com/post/42400435554/i-hear-you

I just sent a constructive e-mail outlining a lot of what I've seen. Especially about use cases. The problem is that it's been split between two section and requires more work to get what you had done before. There seems to be an arbitrary distinction between widgets and notifications as well, which I think, if configurable would solve a lot of problems.

With that said, everyone needs to calm the gently caress down. Your post isn't that bad but people on reddit and twitter are FREAKING OUT over lock info. It's been 3 freaking days since we've had the jailbreak and maybe a week since he released LI5. It will improve and he listens. Everyone needs to calm down.

Yeah, it seems like Springtomize 2 can effectively replace a ton of individual tweaks but perhaps a couple of the dedicated installs do it better. FastBlurredNotificationCenter for example does the same thing as their "Blurred" NC background but the former is a bit blurrier and more to my liking. FakeClockUp is way better than their integrated animation speed up as well.

There are a couple bugs with 6.1 like not fitting the entire IP address or SSID name when you replace the Time in the status bar. From what I've read he's working on them. I've had no problems with their icon resizing and dock numbers though.

That's fine, but Lockinfo 5 is essentially useless if he continues to stick to his "that's the way it's gonna be" attitude. It offers no real functionality that doesn't exist in the stock notifications. The one things I depended on it for (showing me all my calender entries and to do tasks with one button click) doesn't work.

Thankfully, I didn't actually pay for LI5, on account of having a license from forever ago (I got my monies worth by FAR)

2 Points:
1) Yes it does offer functionality. Show me where the weather, ncsettings, anything else you could possibly see be on your lockscreen? You can make "widgets" show as your default which shows all your calendar entries (no customization here...I mentioned this to him) right from the lock screen. You can click them to view them as well.
2) His "that's the way it's gonna be" attitude is "it's not going to be LI4". LI4 was bloated as poo poo and I can guarantee you from his perspective, maintaining that code sucked rear end. His point is that there was no unified design of pieces of information and how it fit in with iOS as a whole.

My big issue with it is that there are two distinct paradigms which conflict with each other and no real distinction why one is the other: notifications and widgets. Why are reminders grouped with widgets? That doesn't seem like a widget to me. Also, as noted by you and many others, there's a lot of missing customization for some of them. I hate that the twitter widget is always expanded and I can't customize how many tweets I see. I hate that it's grouped in with notifications when something like calendar and reminders are widgets (which I think should be notifications). It requires extra steps to get the same information as before with no way around it.

I think a simple solution would be:
-Have the ability to put anything in that list as a notification or a widget (which side it shows up on: top or bottom). I like that there are two separate "pieces" to it but it doesn't make sense to how they were selected to show up where. This would be simple to implement on his side as a global identifier list of which widget should show up where. I could have ncsettings and the twitter widget show up when I pull down but calendar and reminders, etc. be always on the screen as "notifications".
-Change how the "filter bar" (that you hate) is displayed. Honestly, if you have "notifications" show up on their own, it is pointless when you have no notifications. There's just a few icons on the screen that literally do nothing. This is a pretty big no no in UI design. It's confusing to the user. It's providing nothing but taking space. Make it so it only shows up when there are things to filter. On that note, don't make the filter bar be the pull "drawer". The hitbox for it is screwed up anyway or has a delay and it makes the interaction screwed up. Make it be the standard iOS drawer/grabber when there are no notifications (like the deafault for ios for more notifications is) and move down or become the filter bar if you have notifications. It's just weird having something on the screen that does nothing.

I expanded on these in my e-mail I sent him but I think we should all calm down. The response I've seen in regards to LI5 has been sort of insane.
