If you're talking about in Cydia, there's NoAdStoreOpen. I'm not sure about the same for something like Safari or other apps.

Hopefully someone here can help because Reddit was fairly useless in its reply.

On both ASUpdatehider and ReachApp I get 'There was an error loading the preference bundle for XXX' in the settings. ReachApp still works but for ASUpdatehider, the 1 app I don't want to update is now showing in the AppStore!

I've tried deleting and reinstalling both apps but no dice. iPhone 5, iOS 8.1.2 if it makes any difference.

Anything good goons?

In my experience that error generally means it's incompatible with your iOS. I just installed asupdatehider 1.2-2 on 8.1, and while I don't get an error, the tweak doesn't seem to do anything either. Won't hide history, won't let me slide and hide.

Im about to update to 8.1.2 and re jailbreak though!

It's not too bad. From that website you can download iOS 8.1.2 for whatever device you own. Open up iTunes, (back up prior to continuing as a safe measure of course) and when viewing your device, hold the Shift key as you click the "Restore" button. From there, you'll get a pop up window to navigate to whichever directory you saved the downloaded ipsw at. Pretty self explanatory from there.

That was probably the smoothest update and jailbreak I ever done. Taig is pretty slick, did two phones and an iPad in 45 minutes, and probably the first time I didn't have to restore any of them.

Idunno about TaiG, but it used to be SOP for jailbreak groups to not release a jailbreak until they have several exploits lined up. Even if that was their planned exploit, a little patience will be rewarded.

Does snapchat not work for anyone else? On both my iPad and iPhone it crashes on login, but I don't know if it's the jailbreak or just 8.4, didn't think to try if before jailbreak.

I had a lot of issues jb my iPad a few days ago with Taig 2.3, but last night used 2.4 on my phone and it went swimmingly; hit go, walked away and came back to a jailbroke phone. I had the app update issue until I logged out and back in, but works great now.

I'm running iOS9 on my iPad 3 and it is painful to use now, everything is so slow! I even deleted everything and it's still poo poo. Can I revert back to older IOS, or will jailbreaking make it quicker? Never jailbroken a device before but seems like a last resort as apple doesn't seem to let us go back to old OS's from what I can gather.

Or will a jailbreak still be based on the slow ios9? Surely it's not stuck being an expensive, slow paperweight.

It will still be ios9. I haven't updated yet so I don't really know what's up with slowness. There are tweaks that make it feel faster when you jailbreak, like speed up the animations and transitions and stuff. They can make it feel much faster.

If you mean like you click an app then have to wait several seconds for it to open, or input lag or whatevs, not sure you can fix that.

Maybe backup your iPad and do a full restore? Or wait until newer versions of 9 come out that might fix the slowness. Often the major revision of iOS is slow and resource intensive, then gets smoothed out in minor releases.

Edit: no you can't go backwards

There was a million dollar reward to the first iOS 9 jailbreak, and that seems to have gotten results. Was thinking about a Kickstarter that jailbreak users could give a few bucks to give some incentive, but guessing that would surely be against the rules.

Nah, minor versions have been skipped a few times, but I don't think two minor versions in a row have been.

If they are close on a 9.1 jailbreak, the smart move would be to sit on it and hope the same exploit is there on 9.2 if not then they'll know when the betas come out.

This doesn't appear to be true.

DL'd a few things from Cydia this morning which initiated a reboot. Now, the Akram app is still listed as trusted, but iOS wants me to verify the app. Which, of course, doesn't work.

So I went and jailbroke my iPad pro using the Chinese windows program which worked well, however it never asked for Apple credentials so I don't know what's up with that. Yesterday I went to run the PP thing after a reboot and it said untrusted, so I went into profile settings and trusted it again and all works well.

I redid my iPad Pro with the English version using compactor, and it seems very smooth. I was annoyed I didn't know what the rejailbreak thing said and that pp app.

I'm going through and doing all my other devices now before the window closes.

My only question is the 7 day rejailbreak thing? If you used an apple account to sign, is that the deal? Seeing all sorts of articles saying different things and different versions of the jailbreak with a year, or options I didn't have or whatever. I'm currently using 1.1
