jailbreak

I would like to protect my application data in case of any OS attack or unauthorized access on jail broken iOS devices. Is there any way to detect such threats and protect app data in such cases. Vin Although I agree with what jrturton has said, if you have critical data that you want to protect from rogue apps(not the user), you may try the following: 1) Detect if your app has launced on a jailbroken device. Close the app, delete sensitive data. Refer this this thread. 2)Use third party solutions like one from EnsureIT . They are somewhat helpful in saving critical data stored by an app, from

I'd like to run an app in the KIOSK mode, so that it auto-starts after starting the device re-starts after app crash/power loss/etc. Any ideas how to do this on a [probably jailbroken?] iPhone? The easiest method would be to create a mobilesubstrate extension that runs inside SpringBoard and throws up its own UIWindow . Create a static __attribute__((constructor)) function and inside register for UIApplicationDidFinishLaunchingNotification . After receiving the notification, 99% of the standard iPhone SDK will work as-is. It will have to be jailbroken because the standard OS won't give you

I have an app that calls scheduleLocalNotification , but it doesn't work when I install it to /Applications instead of /var/mobile/Applications : - (void) doNotify { // this doesn't work when app is in /Applications but does in /var/mobile/Applications UILocalNotification * theNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init]; theNotification.alertBody = @"Finished processing."; theNotification.alertAction = @"Ok"; theNotification.fireDate = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:1]; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:theNotification]; NSLog(@"notification scheduled: %@

Anyone out there statically linking sqlite (as opposed to using the dynamic linking)? I am having issues with users with jailbroken phones not having the same version of sqlite that the stock iPhone assumes (and hence causing crashes). I'm assuming that staticly linking a known version of sqlite in my app is the answer... I needed to have Full Text support (with FTS3 module) All I did was grab the Sqlite Amalgamation from here: http://www.sqlite.org/amalgamation.html and dropped the .h and .c into my project and it works. Stephen Darlington Have you found the exact source of the crash? Are you

I'm developing a Cydia app. It's been in development for awhile, and I've never had any problems until recently, when I resumed development after a few months. There are a couple of things that have changed since the last time I worked on it: Upgraded to Lion Moved to Xcode 4 Updated to 4.3.5 on my iPad, iPhone to 5.0 From the research I've done, I've come to the conclusion that there was something "unusual" about my old setup. I've discovered that provisioned apps get put in the "sandboxed directory" /private/var/mobile/Applications , and system apps that get read access to the entire

I installed "Class Dump" from Cydia to get application header files. But there is a problem. I can use class-dump in default app. For example, I ran this command: class-dump -H /Applications/MobileSafari.app/MobileSafari -o /Headers/safari and could get header files in "/Headers/safari/". But AppStore app, for example, I ran this command: class-dump -H /var/mobile/Applications/BFF...../Dropbox.app/Dropbox -o /Headers/dropbox and terminal works, but garbled characters appeared ( ScreenShot ) and then terminal crashed. How can I get AppStore app header files? All AppStore apps are encrypted. In
