Helping People Jailbreak Ipod Touch 2G

[Monopoly]

I've been jailbroken for about 6 weeks now on my 2G and consider myself pretty knowledgeable on the whole process so If you want help just send me an im over AIM.

He was really helpful to me and guided me through the beginning part well. I, unfortunately, had second thoughts and decided to wait for quickpwn or someone to make an untethered version that was overall easier to use :o

I hope that comes sometime soon...:)

Monopoly is just AMAZING :D I took a look at the instructions and ran away from jailbreaking but thanks to Monopoly, I am now jailbroken on my 2G whee. And the thetering is not as annoying as I thought... when you restart the Touch (not just sleep, but actually restarting it with the Apple logo) all you do is type two lines on a command prompt and voila, your Touch is active again.

LOVING IT, thanks Monopoly! :D

Have to go to work so can't spend much time with it today, but here are some screenshots. Right now I'm syncing ALL my games so I can organize them at work into folders whee :D

No more page limitations!

P.S. Note that Nurikabe is the only game folder with the word Games. Since the other game folders already have a game icon, I felt the word games unnecessary. But since one of the Nurikabe games is named "Nurikabe," the Categories app didn't recognize it to be added. Note in the Picross folder a game named Picross with the games icon. I added the game named "Picross" before I changed Picross Games to Picross. Tomorrow I'll change it back to Picross Games and that games icon in that folder should change to the appropriate Picross game icon.

Loving it :D

Yes you can, you just have to jailbreak over again :)

Well I've had two crashes but that's only when I'm syncing and when I'm organizing so once that's done I should be ok :) I'm not adverse to crashing, I like trying out new things.

Have just hit the 200-app mark on the Touch.

I'm up to Ho's in syncing. Damn I have a lot of apps :eek: It's going to be nice to have my entire library on my Touch. I gave up on categories (too hard to maintain) and just have Favorites and Games 1, Games 2, Games 3, etc. :D

There goes Hospital Havoc. Aaahhh. Now just implement Kiddie Mode and I have my new PuzzleQuest :)

Is it easy to just toss all your games in a "games" folder and all your apps in an "apps" folder?

[GatorDeb]

Hard as Hell.

1. Tap Categories.
2. Click the category you want to add to from the list.
3. Click add button.
4. Scroll through all uncategorized app clicking each one you want to add.
5. Click done.
6. Click done.
7. Click Springboard

:D

To uncategorize after #2, you just click Edit and click on the minus and then delete. Goes back to the list of uncategorized apps.

I have over 500 apps :eek:

Wait, so you don't have to do each one individually though, right? You just go down the list and a checkmark appears next to each one you selected?

Once you go into the folder, ALL uncategorized files appear in a scrollable list, and once you touch their name they disappear (because they're now categorized in what folder you're in). So it's just tap tap tap tap tap :)
