Oh, I like the smell of my own dumps.
I'm not sure what happened. Randomly one of my folders just disappeared, as well as many apps. The only thing I've done is download the latest Facebook app update. Very strange.

That happened to me after I updated some random poo poo in Cydia yesterday. A full reboot fixed it.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a cydia tweak for safari so when I open a new tab, the cursor jumps to the search box rather than the address bar?

You could use Safari UniBar

I'm looking for a music widget that doesn't have album art. Album art is dumb. I'm looking through the guts of Jukebox to try to center align the text, and remove the album art, but I have no idea what I'm looking at, and can't find how.

Are there any music widgets that don't have album art? Or, does someone know how I can change Jukebox to not have album art?

I still use TetherMe. Works great and I haven't been hassled by ATT yet. Then again, I only use it maybe once a month.

Thanks for this, I've been looking for a replacement for MyWi since they refused to carry over my license when I got my new phone.

Did you ask? MyWi has carried my license from 4 to 4s to 5. I did have to pay a few bucks for the upgrade from MyWi 4 to 5, but that was a feature upgrade not a phone upgrade thing.

I bought 4, upgraded to 5 and when I got my iPhone 5 I downloaded 5 and tried to download my license, it seemed to go through but after three days it showed that my trial had expired. Oddly it's the only Cydia app I bought that's not linked on my account page.

I rarely use the tethering but like to have it as a backup in case my work puts me up in a hotel or something, if I hadn't seen TetherMe suggested and found that it works just fine I'd probably start writing Emails to the developer of MyWi since I did manage to track down the PayPal receipt for my purchase.

I didn't take my own advice when I updated to 6.1.2. Forgot to get my package list from AppInfo. :sweatdrop:

I also jailbroke and installed all my jailbreak apps before restoring my phone backup and it was doing something weird. So I've re-restored in iTunes and I'm putting my backedup data and apps on the phone now. Then I'm going to jailbreak and work off my AppInfo list from 2 weeks ago. :woop:

I've got AdBlocker buy Cydia and other sites are still littered with ads.

Back on 5.1.1 I edited some list and added loads of add URLs with the help of some guide and ALL ads were removed but I can't for the life of me remember how I did it :(

You could try sbadblocktoggle for system wide adblocking. It has always been free but unfortunately the only place I could find it was cydia.xsellize.com which has a ton of cracked cydia apps on it. Sbsettings is required.

I got it working by custom loading an adblock pro list from my desktop. I think adblock for iOS just doesn't come with preloaded definitions or something.

Here is my modified hosts file (likely the file that you edited yourself) that blocks the majority of ads in Cydia, Safari iAds and other mobile ads. I've yet to see an ad since modifying it.

Just browse to /etc/ using ifile or ifunbox or ssh and replace your original (after backing it up). Then make sure ownership is set for Owner- root, Group- wheel and access permissions are set to User- read/write/execute, Group- read/execute, World- read/execute.

Looks like MyWi busts Bluetooth on 6.1.x (maybe 6.0.x?). I cannot pair anything or use native Bluetooth tethering with MyWi installed or active.

- Rebooting into Safe Mode (which prevents Mobile Substrate and MyWi from loading): Bluetooth works.
- Remove just MyWi & Reboot: Bluetooth works.

I've emailed @intelliborn about it (along with a few other bugs I've encountered in MyWi).

Have you guys used iCaughtU Pro? This is pretty drat cool. I guess it's been around a while but I've never heard of it before. Tried it out and it works like a charm. Mostly it'll alert me when my girlfriend tries to unlock my phone but it's good to have incase I actually do lose it.

Sends a timestamped email with photo of the unsuccessful unlocker and address of their location. You can also execute remote commands, resend location at selected intervals, etc

Aight so I have Style Unlock installed. Style unlock means you can unlock your device by swiping up / down / whatever. What this also does though, is remove the camera button. Are there any tweaks I can use to show the camera button? Can't see anything in LockInfo or Springtomize.

You could keep the slider visible, but have no unlock with knob turned on.

Might defeat the point of the tweak if you got it to remove the slider.

Does anyone else have a problem with apps not staying in memory? I feel like I reload apps fully after a certain time of inactivity, like BiteSMS after a few minutes. I don't know if this is due to a tweak I've installed or if it always worked this way.

Got another question. I am using blink for my lockscreen theme. I have my notifications set to banners and was hoping that they'd show up at the top on my phone and not where the hidden clock ends. Are there any tweaks available to have banners show up starting from the top of the screen?

Safari download manager seems to reboot my ipad into safe mode whenever I try to change the file location. It was originally pointing at a folder within goodreader but the folder name (displayed as that long string of letters and numbers) no longer exists, possibly due to a goodreader update changing its folder name. Regardless, is there anyway known to man to edit this download location outside of SDM or even an alternative download manager?

How come one of the main things you look for in a calendar (the date) is so tiny? I'm looking at my phone to see the actual date more often than not, so why is "THE 24TH" so much tinier than the month? :psyduck:

I usually look at my lockscreen for time checking, the date is displayed on my status bar throughout the rest of the OS. I also just like to cycle lockscreens and try new things, and I also don't like cluttering it up with notifications and stuff. LockInfo was never my thing.

"Banner" is for unlocked mode only, not for your lockscreen.

Looking for some suggestions if you crazy kids don't mind:
What can I use to hide the unlock bar and camera icon on the lock screen? And how about tweak to download files using Safari? Finally, does anyone have the name of that tweak that fixes the memory issue with respringing from a few pages back?

Disco all night long!

I have a weird request, and I would really appreciate some help here.

I'm trying to help a Korean teenager jailbreak his iPhone 4 ios 6. Now, I don't use iTunes (or have a computer that can use it, I have my iPad and a lovely Linux netbook.)

He barely uses iTunes, and of course he uses it in Korean.

Evasi0n is giving us an error saying "the attached device has a backup password set" and that we need to disable it in iTunes. Could someone explain to me what exactly this is, how to disable it and, if it's not too much could someone maybe make a screenshot pointing it out in iTunes?

I don't know nearly enough Korean to explain it to him, and he doesn't speak a whole lot of English. But if we could see the general window we have to do something on I think we can figure it out, even if his iTunes is in Korean (the dialogue windows are all probably in the same place, right?)

Sorry for the big request, the language barrier is making this a pain and I honestly haven't found much info on google besides "disable it in iTunes."

When you plug your phone into your computer and itunes pops up, on the phone page under "automatically backup" there are a couple of options. Uncheck the "encrypt iphone backup" box and it should disable the password.

You can turn it back on after you jailbreak your phone.
