jailbreak

Once an iOS device is jailbroken, we can build jailbreak apps (with theos) and it gets installed in the /Applications directory where the preloaded apps run with root privileges. If an app is built with Xcode, once it is installed, it gets into the /private/var/mobile/Applications/ folder, which is supposed to have Apple sandbox enforced (before jailbreak). So, the questions I have are: For a jailbroken device, will the apps in /private/var/mobile/Applications/ execute with root privileges or with mobile user privileges? In case of Android, once rooted, the apps will have to gain root

I am working on an iPhone application and would really like to determine if the device is roaming so that I can intelligently avoid costing my users expensive connections if out of their home network. The application I am writing is for jailbroken phones, however I would prefer to use standard SDKs if possible. Here is what I've already found: 1. Apple SDKs: In the apple documentation, I found the promise in Apple's SCNetworkReachability API. The API provides access to such things as whether you are on a WIFI or a cell phone network, whether a network connection is currently established, etc.

I have code system("reboot") The reboot command works in the terminal, but even if I run the app as root, the operation is still denied. Has anyone found any way that works, or can explain a bit about SBSetting's reboot, which makes me curious? I figured out a way to do it, although it's a bit convoluted. The problem is that even if you setup your app to run as root , when you make system() calls, you're apparently still limited to user mobile privileges. Since mobile cannot call reboot (successfully), this doesn't work. The way I got around this problem is to take advantage of a new feature
