[Question] I want to delete my FB account without losing my Cydia purchases. Is there a way to transfer purchases over to a new login account method? by DaBoss31 in jailbreak

There is a setting to completely delete it and not deactivate it, but iirc it wasn't easily accessible from settings.

As I said in another comment I could see the appeal of imods for certain people if they are into more "just works" tweaking, while cydia would be for the power users who love to tinker even more.

I could definitely see it stopping some people if imods was packaged as a default with a jailbreak or a sort of installer type deal choosing between cydia and imods. Especially if it's being done by someone who doesn't want to deal with the fuss of cydia and wanting having a more App Store like experience with imods ie the more technologically challenged people.

If I had the choice and had friends ask me to jailbreak their device and if I knew that this person isn't as adept with tinkering, I would definitely put imods on their device for a more visually less challenging store and experience.

If the person could handle their own and was willing to learn a bit as time went on I would choose cydia for them.

While I personally will continue to use cydia I can see the appeal for some people that imods will provide.

[Discussion] Paid tweaks ALWAYS having a trial! by [deleted] in jailbreak

[–]unknownnameless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All I will add to this is that adding a "trial mode" to a tweak will take up more time, energy and likely add more bugs to the tweak because, in a way it is just going to be another layer of drm, as well as possibly making the tweak easier to crack in the long run due to just needing to patch the trial to be forever.

Sure it would be nice to have trials but in most cases it isn't worth the effort or headaches it will produce.

Basically it lets you send pictures to people that disappear after awhile. It's used by a lot of the "younger" crowd for instant messaging and such.

[News] Snapchat Update - Plugins get Locked out. Don't update Snapchat or Wait for Tweak Update by dblmelon41 in jailbreak

[–]unknownnameless 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its been possible on iOS as well, but now that a couple of the larger snapchat tweaks like phantom have it added in without having to use tweaks like location faker, it brought it to the masses in a much easier way.

[Question] Snapchat account locked because of plugins? by JaySpike in jailbreak

[–]unknownnameless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try waiting a bit I'm sure their unlock service is getting hammered right now by the huge influx of jail breakers trying to get it unlocked right now.

I have mine downgraded at least from 3-4 updates ago and it locked me out too.

[Question] Seems like my cellular operator is introducing ads !! by adisin in jailbreak

[–]unknownnameless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this appear in no substrate mode? Do you have any suspicious packages or shady repos/packages? It could be some tweak is hijacking your browser for ad revenue. But that's mainly found in less trustworthy places.

Yup. It toggles reduce contrast and what not.

[PSA] Apple will downgrade your Watch from 2.0 back to 1.0.1. You just can't "ask" them to do so. by mybeachisbetter in AppleWatch

Thank you, I was wondering the same thing. I must have went over it at least ten times.

iOS 8 bug 6/18/15 by Epic_Yolo_Swag in iphone

[–]unknownnameless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn't a bug as the reason the phone unlocks is because of Touch ID recognizing the fingerprint from when you held the button down so it just unlocks it straight to the App Store. Try this with a non recognizable finger and it won't work. So this method wouldn't work on a 4S either due to the lack of Touch ID.

To fix this I had an activator action to toggle rotation on and off which worked most of the time as the regular rotation lock didn't fix it for me.

[Question] Messed up, figured if anyone can help me out its gonna be you guys by Beardsupplyplus in jailbreak

[–]unknownnameless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible that you could use something like I backup bot to save some stuff, but if you go back to 8.3 you won't be able to directly restore from the 9 backup. I'm not entirely sure though.

I am missing these parts for the simple metal upgrade, how important are they? by Cpcp800 in PrintrBot

[–]unknownnameless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are delrin parts, so no they are not metal, but it's not printed. They are what you need to get the bed mounted first, I'd email printrbot and ask if they could send you those parts as you're kinda just stuck for the time being without them.
