I kinda like this, I know it’s probably not the best for a business to have this, but it’s true and funny!

On a Side note, support someone I went to high school with! I know this site probably attracts geeks, so you should appreciate a couple of funny blonde girls.

Grooveshark for the Iphone

3 comments

This should be a decent post for once. Lately I have been using Grooveshark on my PC because it’s a kick ass free streaming music site. I just recently noticed that it has an Iphone App. The only catch is you need to have a Jailbroken Iphone. If you do you can find this App in Cydia.

Now you will only have a small trial period (50 songs I believe), but to avoid this and be able to save the songs for later listening, follow the below guide. Also when he states to change the number, just make sure you increment the number. You can also do all this with Ifile from Cydia, no need to SSH. I may write my own guide using Ifile.

Grooveshark Free Guide

*UPDATE*

Kevin’s Guide

Requirements:

1 – Ifile from Cydia
2 – Grooveshark from Cydia
3 – Sign up for a Free Grooveshark Account
4 – This Guide will only be useful if you have a Jailbroken Iphone
5 – Not needed, but I find having Backgrounder makes this TONS easier

Keeping the “Trial” going Forever:

If your Trial happens to expire, simply open up Ifile and edit the following number in the file listed below. You will simply be choosing a bigger number, just increment the number. Make sure Grooveshark is closed and you should be back up and running. File Path = “/var/mobile/Library/Grooveshark/userInfo.plist”

Saving your Music:

Start by opening Grooveshark and searching for a file to play, there are a couple things you can do here. If you play the file it will save the file in “/var/tmp/temp.mp3″ once it has finished streaming the file. You can also click the arrow to the right of the File and choose the option to save for Offline play, this will ensure it’s downloaded. Once Downloaded you will notice a Green Arrow indicating it has been downloaded. So the rule for this is, Play the File and make sure it’s been completely Downloaded. You can then Background Grooveshark and load up Ifile, Copy the temp.mp3 file to another Directory and Rename the file. The Pictures below should demonstrate what I mean. Once moved to the Directory of your choice you can Zip the files in Ifile and send them to your computer using the Wifi Transfer. Also creating Bookmarks in Ifile might make going between Folders Much easier.

Hope this helps a bit, you can always use the other guide if mine is horrible :)

On a Side note it is an extremely good idea to get your SHSH Blobs for 4.0.1 FW for the Iphone as I believe there will be a jailbreak really soon. Apple has already stopped signing for 4.0, but Comex has stated that 4.0.1 is just fine.

Iphone FW can be Download Here

Use Umbrella to get your SHSH Blobs, even if you aren’t using 4.0.1 you can still backup your SHSH Blobs if you have your ECID :)

Upgrading to a Jailbroken iOS4

No comments

Just a couple notes for you folks wanting the new Shiny OS.

The Dev-Team has released a tool to Jailbreak iOS4, however there are some guidelines:

NB: With PwnageTool 4.0 PwnageTool 4.01 certain devices are not supported this is because they are not supported in iOS 4.0 or they are not supported by our software.  We’re working on ways to get past these restrictions.

  • iPhone 2G  - not supported
  • iPod Touch – not supported
  • iPod Touch 3G – not supported

PwnageTool 4.0 PwnageTool 4.01 only recognizes the official IPSWs that came out yesterday. If you had developer access to the “4.0 GM” IPSWs, do not try to use those.

iPhone 3GS

Summary: Currently, PwnageTool only works on previously jailbroken 3GS devices with the old bootrom.

  • If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3GS with the OLD BOOTROM and you DID NOT use Spirit to jailbreak then you can create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore with your jailbroken recovery mode.
  • If you have an iPhone 3GS with the NEW BOOTROM this is NOT supported by PwnageTool 4.0 PwnageTool 4.01

iPhone 3G

  • If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3G at 3.1.2 (but not jailbroken with Spirit) then you should create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.01 and restore from recovery mode or DFU mode.
  • If you have an out of the box iPhone 3G you should restore using a PwnageTool 4.01 ipsw using DFU mode.
  • If you have a Jailbroken 3.1.3 iPhone 3G it is very possible that this can fail from recovery mode, if this failure happens you will need to restore using DFU mode.
  • As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on iPhone 3G (on both Windows and Mac) as mentioned in our last post.

IMPORTANT! Whenever you need to enter DFU mode, you will need to do so using PwnageTool.

iPod touch 2G

  • If you have an iPod touch 2G (non-MC model) that is jailbroken (but not with Spirit) then you can restore using recovery mode.
  • As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on non-MC iPod Touch 2G (on both Windows and Mac) as mentioned in our last post.

Baseband Unlock

  • As you probably know by now, ultrasn0w has been updated to cover all basebands from 04.26.08 onward.  Many thanks to @sherif_hashim for finding the crashing command that the new ultrasn0w 0.93 uses!  He worked hard at finding the crash, and he kept it confidential until the right time to use it.
  • Major props to @oranav (who found the earlier +xlog crash).  He also had this crashing command!
  • iPhone 3G and 3GS baseband unlockers (those who rely on ultrasn0w to make phone calls) should always be very wary to update their firmware, however our Ultrasn0w application will unlock all recent (including the current) 3GS and 3G baseband firmware versions.  Once you are jailbroken using PwnageTool 4.01, install ultrasn0w from Cydia and you’ll be unlocked.
  • Remember! This baseband unlock situation is rare, should you upgrade your iPhone blindly at the next iOS release please don’t expect an unlock – but for now you are OK (whatever state your baseband is in).

*Side Note*

If you have 3.1.3 on a 3GS and used Spiritjb, apparently if you have your SHSH file you can downgrade to 3.1.2 Custom FW and then use Pwnage Tool 4.01 to update. If you get stuck in a boot loop use iRecovery.

Don’t like iOS4 Multitasking?

No comments

If you don’t like the iOS4 Multitasking because it shows all recently opened apps and not just currently backgrounded apps, download this on cydia!

Alright, so iOS4 is out and you are impatient. If you want to upgrade with iTunes now, go for it!

Use the latest Redsn0w beta and point to the last iOS4 beta when jailbreaking.

Ultrasn0w has been updated already and can be found via Cydia.

I will post more with links when I have time :)
