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.

110 Jailbreaking of New Apple TV Eased by iTunes Restore Capabilities

Twitter user with nickname StealthBravo recently confirmed that the new Apple TV can be restored in iTunes as well as any iOS device, easing the way for jailbreakers to bring new functionality to the set-top box. This means that the hackers soon be able to offer us tools, as they currently do for other iOS devices, to save SHSH blobs, jailbreak the Apple TV, and install 3rd party software.

Moreover, Apple TV offers a Micro-USB port for connectivity, but the port also offers a means for users to physically connect the device to computers to employ the techniques required for jailbreak of operating system.

iphone activate HowTo activate iPhone without original SIM card

Having problems activating your iPhone? Don’t have original SIM-card? Cannot get passed emergency unlock screen? We have a solution:

If you have iPhone 3G, just use redsn0w to jailbreak and hactivate. If you have iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 follow these instructions:

If you are already Jailbroken:

So you have an iPhone with iOS 4.0, but don’t have the original SIM and stuck on the Emergency Call Screen:

  1. Download ifunbox software (download link)
  2. Run ifunbox software and sync with phone
  3. Go to /private/var/root/Library/, delete original lockdown folder and put this lockdown folder after you extract it from the zip file
  4. Restart phone

If you are not jailbroken

Sherif Hashim discovered that you can activate your iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS or even iPhone 3G without the original carrier SIM card. You need a “phonebook sim card” or 02 simcard. You can buy these type of sim at radioshack, bestbuy or other mobile electronics store (for example here).

Once you get passed the Emergency Call screen, connect to Wifi, jailbreak using JailbreakMe.com and unlock using ultrasn0w. Once that is complete you should be passed activation and unlocked (able to use any sim). If you get a different simcard error, do the following final step:

  1. Download ifunbox software (download link)
  2. Run ifunbox software and sync with phone
  3. Go to /private/var/root/Library/, delete original lockdown folder and put this lockdown folder after you extract it from the zip file
  4. Restart phone

If you have itunes invalid response problem:

  1. Connect to wifi and ssh to your phone (via winscp, putty, terminal, etc).
  2. Navigate to your lockdown folder (/private/var/root/Library/).
  3. Delete pair_records folder
  4. Reconnect the cable and see that your invalid response problem is gone.

If you bought your iPhone 4 on ebay you will need the official sim (at&t) or a universal sim, like ones you can grab at bestbuy for $10 this will get you passed Emergency Screen.
