Let the burning of pants commence. These things drive me nuts.



If I update my 4th gen ipod touch to the latest firmware, will I be able to downgrade it back to 5.1.1 and re-jailbreak it? Will it be an untethered jailbreak? I have the blobs saved from when I first jailbroke it. None saved for 6.1.2, though, because I never upgraded it. If so, is there a guide somewhere on how to do it? Thanks in advance.

Upon downloading/installing Alpaca Evolution from the App Store (not even a Cydia tweak, jesus) my phone immediately shat the bed and went into a reboot loop. redsn0w is giving stitched ipsws the finger, so I guess I'm stuck. Anyone running a tethered jailbreak of 6.1.3 on an iphone 4, or have another suggestion?

I had the same problem a while ago and redsn0w was no help. here is the guide I used,

http://www.evasionjailbreak.org/downgrade-ios-6-1-3-to-ios-6-1-2-using-sn0wbreeze-snowbreeze/

I had to upgrade to 6.1.3. You should not do it over the air because I think it causes problems? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Then I stitched a 6.1.2 ipa with my SHSH blobs and did a shift restore. That guide has all the details covered.

Also before you do sn0wbreeze you could try using tiny umbrella or IReb to kick it out of its reboot loop. It's worked for me a fair number of times so defiantly give that a shot first.

An OTA update results in a different SHSH blob from a regular update, so when you attempt to restore it from an IPA you've got, it won't work.

This seems pretty legit. It was posted on lifehacker.com earlier today. Basically it gets rid of all tweaks and jailbreak things you have installed, and leaves you with a fresh jailbreak of the OS, with only Cydia installed.

The majority of people who have tried using it on Reddit have said it does not work for them. Haven't tried it myself so I have no input on the matter. That being said it would also appear some of these people have tried using it in ways it is not supposed to work, so no surprise there.

Edit: The people who have had semi-restore work are those who did it over SSH versus USB

I had tried all this as well, but to no avail. Dug out a windows7 vm and gave the sn0wbreeze method many attempts but it wouldn't work. Those blobs were fetched directly from the device with tiny umbrella. :shrug:

Since I'm at 6.1.3 anyway I jailbroke successfully with redsn0w and after initial setup of Cydia apps the tethered side of things has been a non-issue so far. Without "just boot"ing tethered it still works fine on the stock side of things so worst-case seems not so bad.

Ultimately would like to have 6.1.2 untethered, and will likely try again at some point when I have more time to throw at it.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Panic mode sucks!

This was pretty decent for me, and I got to fit date and month into the status bar. But it's a pretty long string and sometimes the battery percentage will disappear when, say, I'm playing music or an alarm is set (thus adding icons to the status bar). I'd really like to shift some icons to where the carrier currently is.

Is there a way to do that?

ArrangeStatusBar should accomplish this for you. It's kind of finicky so you'll have to play with it a bit.

Does anyone know what happened to the Data Protection option on LockInfo? I'm not seeing it anymore and I'm sure I used to have it enabled. Using LI 5.3.0-1

Really bugs me that I can tap to open an SMS from my passcoded lockscreen - this was once protected.

If you install BTNotificationEnabler then all your phone's notifications will be sent to the pebble. It's great.

I would like to see the time stamp for every SMS message I get. Not just the time of the first message in a conversation.

I tried using SMS Timestamps from cydia, but I could not find the options for it as described in the description page.

I'm on a 4S 6.1.2. Any suggestions?

In other news, I just bought the Flaticons theme, and it is fantastic. It has a setting that flattens the whole user interface for ios6, and it looks great. Highly recommended.

There are a few patches for Flex that make Messages always show time stamps. Flex is a pretty cool tweak overall - people upload patches for a ton of apps that tweak little things like that.

It's in Settings towards the bottom.

What's an app that will let me move a file that I email myself to various folders?

I know about iFile but I can't open a file that I email using iFile, so I can't move it to different folders. Once I know where the file is on my phone iFile is great, but the trick is finding the file, or being able to move it to a place that iFile can easily access.

Link a Dropbox account to iFile and you'll have universal access to your files. You can then move them around inside iFile or ssh into your phone and move them that way.

Thanks for the recommendation. I've been using this for a couple of days. It's useful but you can mess up your status bar by putting your finger on the status bar at any time. You're dragging your notification center down and next your battery indicator has disappeared. I'm still gonna keep it but I wish it worked better.
