itunes Prevent iTunes from Updating Jailbroken Devices

iTunes continues to serve iOS updates even if your Apple’s device was jailbroken. And if these updates are downloaded and installed occasionally, your device may be returned to  a non-jailbroken state.  Here the script, which prevents iTunes from automatically downloading updates:

#!/bin/bash
clear
echo “This script will chmod the download locations for Firmware Files, So iTunes can not download firmware.”
echo “AKA it will prevent iTunes from auto updating your device.”
echo “”
echo “”
echo “To restore firmware just hold down option and manually select the firmware file.”
echo “”
clear
echo “Made By: Wesley K”
echo “wesley@wesleyk.me”
echo “http://wesleyk.me”
echo “http://wesleyk.me/twitter
sleep 2
read -sn 1 -p “Press any key to continue…”
clear
echo “Now I need your password to continue”
echo “Killing iTunes now”
sudo -v
sudo killall -9 iTunes
sleep 2
clear

echo “Im going to make all the folder needed to future proof a few things”
echo “If errors occur here, No big deals.”
sudo mkdir ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates/
sudo mkdir ~/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/
sudo mkdir ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates/
sleep 2
clear

echo “I am going to dump all the current files in your update folders.”
echo “This will prevent any updates from downloaded firmware.”
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates/*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates/*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/*
sleep 2
clear

echo “Now preventing iTunes from downloading new firmwares.”
sudo chmod 444 ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates
sudo chmod 444 ~/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates
sudo chmod 444 ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
sleep 2
clear

echo “Made By Wesley K”
echo “Give me credit if you use it”
echo “For safe measures I would run this script after iTunes updates, It shouldn’t affect it but I don’t know yet.”

To use it, just copy and paste the script into TextEdit: TextEdit → Format →  Plain Text. Save the file wherever you want as blockitunesupdates.sh. Open up a terminal window and type chmod +x filepath, where filepath is the path to the script. To start it, drag the script file into a Terminal window, push Enter, and follow the instructions.

If you update iTunes, OS X, or repair disk permissions with Disk Utility, you may need to perform the above described procedure again to make sure iTunes stays blocked. If you want to lock the script, replace the three 444s in the script with 555 and run it again.

Engadget published a howto video of LimeRa1niOS 4.0-4.1 jailbreak utility for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad:

ra1ndrop iPhone iOS 4.1 Jailbreak Released from GeoHot, called LimeRa1n

Famous hacker Geohot is back and today he released the latest iOS 4.1 jailbreak. It is called LimeRa1n and supports iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G, iPad, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 4G with iOS firmwares 4.0-4.1 and beyond. It can also hacktivate your device, so there is no need in phone SIM-cards and other tricks.

This software is still in beta and was updated 3 times in last several hours. So use with caution.

There is Windows version only for now. Geohot plans to release LimeRa1n for Mac and Linux soon. You can Download it here.

Some users report that they have jailbroken their iOS 3.2.2 iPads successfully with limera1n, while others report that they tried, but failed.

Do not forget to backup.

For many users of iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 with iOS 4.0.2 now there is a hope to perform jailbreak using LimeRa1n and unlock using ultrasn0w. We recommend NOT to do it if you have not saved your SHSH keys. You can try, but if something goes wrong without SHSH keys you’ll have to restore to iOS 4.1, and there is no unlock for iOS 4.1 (possibly forever). Just wait for PwnageTool utility.

DevTeam reported that Limera1n uses a different exploit than SHAtter, so they will not release SHAtter utility, they don’t want let Apple fix both security holes. However they plan to release PwnageTool using the same exploit.

limetime 400x245 iPhone iOS 4.1 Jailbreak Released from GeoHot, called LimeRa1n

Known bugs:

  • some people must reboot to see Cydia
  • beta iOS versions aren’t supported
  • iPod Touch 2G support coming soon
  • for iPhone 3G use redsn0w 0.9.6 b1

Here’s a quick changelog of recent beta releases:

  • BETA1 – first release
  • BETA2 – fixed kernel patching magic, rerun BETA2+ over BETA1
  • BETA3 – fixed new bootrom 3GS
  • BETA4 – uninstall fixed, respring fixedish

120 Change Your iPhone/iPod touch Icons Without Jailbreaking

If you’re interested in theming your iPhone/iPod touch, but don’t want to jailbreak your device, there is now a solution. Using iPhone Explorer, you can now change an app’s icon to something you like better. Best of all, the software is free!

All you need to do is open up iPhone Explorer and navigate into the app’s folder, located in /Apps/appname.app/appname.app.app (where appname is the name of the app you want to change and devicename is the name of your device). Within that folder, find the png file that is the icon, named something like icon@2x.png for an iPhone 4, or Icon.png for iPhone 3GS and below. Back that up and replace it with your own icon. Make sure the icon is in PNG format and is 114×114 pixels for the iPhone 4, 57×57 for the iPhone 3GS and earlier. After rebooting your phone, you should see the old icon replaced with your new one.

This trick will only work with third party apps, which means that you are stuck with the icons for apps that come with your iPhone.

redsn0w 095b5 5 374x400 How to jailbreak iOS 4.0.2 iPhone 3G

You cannot use JailBreakMe method to jailbreak and unlock iOS 4.0.2 on iPhone 3G. However you can still jailbreak and unlock iPhone 3G using redsn0w. Here are the instructions:

  • Download the latest RedSn0w 0.9.5-b5 in our utilities page here.
  • Download firmware images for iOS 4.0 here.
  • Run RedSn0w and point it at the 4.0 IPSW. (Yes – point it at the 4.0 IPSW even though you’re at 4.0.2). This will also hacktivate your iPhone3G at 4.0.1 if you haven’t already been activated by iTunes.
  • If you need a carrier unlock – install ultrasn0w in Cydia (add repository http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com). For T-Mobile in the USA remember to turn off 3G mode in Settings→General→Network.
