How To Jailbreak the iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch

For those who aren't afraid to void their warranty (don't worry, you can always restore to factory settings with no one the wiser), the new jailbreaking tool called "Spirit" brings that level of freedom to all Apple mobile devices running firmware 3.1.2, 3.1.3 or 3.2. This is also an "untethered" jailbreak, meaning you don't have to plug in your device to your computer every time your reboot it, an issue that plagued similar exploits used in the recent past

Note that this particular jailbreak is what's known by the hacker community as a "userland" jailbreak. That means that it exploits a security weakness in the mobile operating system. Apple tends to quickly patch these holes, once exposed, through software updates. Jailbreak users who don't want to be affected by the soon-to-arrive Apple software update, can go through a procedure to back up something called "SHSH blobs" which allow you to downgrade and re-jailbreak your device if you were to accidentally upgrade. If you want go through this step, there's a tutorial here. Otherwise, just be careful to not upgrade your device when a new software patch is released.

Once you're ready to jailbreak, do the following:

1. Verify you're running the latest version of iTunes (9.1.1) and then sync your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad one last time in order to back it up. The iPad should be running OS 3.2.
2. Download the Spirit jailbreak for Mac or PC. Both are found on the Spirit homepage.







3. Connect the iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch to your computer using the USB cable.
4. Run the Spirit jailbreak application. (Note: Windows users may need to run the program as an administrator - Right-click on the .exe file and choose "Run as Administrator" from the menu. If you still have issues, try running it in compatibility mode as well. Right-click, go to Properties, Compatibility tab, and check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows 98/Me").































5. Click the "jailbreak" button.









6. The iPad will automatically reboot.
7. Once rebooted, you'll see the "Cydia" application installed on your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad's desktop. From here, you have access to all the unapproved, third-party applications.

That's it!

Your device is now hacked.

iPhone and iPod Touch OS 4.0 Beta 3 Build 8A260b

Changes in Beta 3:



1- Beta 3 feels significantly more stable than prior beta builds.
2- Things seem to be running much smoother, and even the ability to take screenshots is back (this was missing in Beta 2 for some odd reason).
3- Another annoyances that's resolved with this build is closing out apps in the multitasking "drawer." Instead of having to press-and-hold one app icon at a time to get the little minus symbol.






4- you'll now see all the icons change as soon as you press-and-hold one. Much quicker
5- Orientation Lock. You just tap it once and your screen will not rotate to drive you nuts.Right next to the Orientation Lock you'll also find some basic iPod controls so that you don't have to exit an app to change songs. You can access these features by swiping all the way to the left in the multitasking drawer.







Don't forget to say Thank you!

Getting an iPhone’s UUID number for ad-hoc app deployment

Deploying iPhone applications to testers involves creating an ad-hoc distribution package that they can install through iTunes, rather than the App Store. To do this, you need to get each iPhone’s identifier or UUID code.

There are two steps to this – the first is to get your guinea pig to connect their iPhone and fire up iTunes. Then on the iPhone Summary page, they’ll see their phone’s serial number, like this:









The serial number isn’t the one you’re after – clicking on the Serial Number will flip the display so that it shows the eleventy-billion digit UUID, like this:







Thankfully, you can copy the number even though it looks as if you can’t select it on the screen – just hover the mouse pointer over the number, and Cmd-C / Crtl-C to copy the number onto the clipboard.
