OldiOS - Discover old iDevices
You found your way onto Lemmy. As you can see, it’s really empty here. Fell free to post some stuff or just check out this platform. I also take mod applications, but would like to see some posts and activity first. Enjoy ;)
Back in the day you could apply custom themes using Cydia! I forget what this theme was called, but I liked the look! I wonder whatever happened to BtBx and Goalkeep, those were cool apps that just vanished.
You find this community interesting, and want to experience old iDevices yourself? Here are a few useful links and resources. ____________________________________________ What should I know when buying devices on specific firmwares via eBay or other services? [ https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GIDcXhENVg1jqHgvlXWrSehulga0mdLP/view ] ____________________________________________ I have some cool apps on my device. How do I preserve them? That’s mostly done with a Jailbreak and the tweak Clutch as well as MTerminal. I’ll probably do a complete tutorial sometime. ____________________________________________ Jailbreaking? How do I Jailbreak? There are multiple tools for Jailbreaking. Check which tool works for your device and version first. I recommend this site. [ https://ios.cfw.guide/get-started/ ] ____________________________________________ What are Blobs? How do I save them? SHSH Blobs can help you downgrade on old iOS devices. You can check if you have some saved with iFaith (works best with Windows 7) [https://github.com/iH8sn0w/iFaith/releases]. Using them works best with this Downgrading Kit [https://github.com/LukeZGD/Legacy-iOS-Kit]. You can also save them yourself with the Downgrading Kit, if you have a "rare" version on your device for example. ONLY SAVE ONBOARD BLOBS WITH IFAITH ON WINDOWS 7 AND BELOW! BECAUSE IT CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE. ____________________________________________ I’m Jailbroken. What can I do now? Here are a few examples: - Fix the Weather App on iOS 6-7 / WeatherX from https://1pwn.ixmoe.com/dev - Fix the Stock App on iOS 5-7 / StockX from https://1pwn.ixmoe.com/dev - Install uncracked .ipas / AppSync Unified from https://cydia.akemi.ai & iFile or ipa Installer - Make the AppStore download the last compatible version of apps / Checkmate, Store! from https://cydia.invoxiplaygames.uk - Have an alternative Legacy AppStore with tons of cool and deleted apps / Veteris from https://1pwn.ixmoe.com/dev - Dualboot iOS versions / Coolbooter (32-Bit devices only) from https://coolbooter.com - Relive the classic YouTube app on iOS 3 - 6 / TubeFixer from https://cydia.invoxiplaygames.uk - Add the classic YouTube app to iOS 6 / Classic YouTube App from https://cydia.invoxiplaygames.uk/beta - Theme your device / Winterboard from the default repo BigBoss - Use a file browser with system access / iFile from the default repo BigBoss - Do cool coding stuff on a great Terminal / MTerminal from the default repo BigBoss - Chat on Discord for iOS 5 or 6 / Discord Classic from https://github.com/TorutheRedFox/iOS-Discord-Classic - Experience a Clash of Clans server for old devices / from https://discord.gg/rwwnEkad6g ____________________________________________ I’m not Jailbroken but I still want to do some cool stuff. What can I do? Here are a few examples: - Fix some newer websites on old iOS versions / https://cydia.invoxiplaygames.uk/certificates and/or change the HTTP proxy to muellers-software.org and the port to 3080 - Install the last compatible version of an app / 1. Sign in with an AppleID connected to a newer device (type the password first, then without a space the 6 digit 2FA code after) 2. Download the App on the newer device and if it’s in your purchase history, you can download the last compatible version without any issues - Browse YouTube / http://inv.muellers-software.org/feed/popular - Browse Twitch / https://github.com/evtukhov/twitch - Browse Telegram / https://web.telegram.org/?legacy=1#/im - Browse Wikipedia / http://theoldnet.com/get?decode=false&scripts=false&year=current&url=http://en.wikipedia.org - Travel back in time and enjoy old website snapshots / http://theoldnet.com - Play some old webapp games / http://splax.net (Old Games) I hope I could help with this collection of links and information. ;)
It’s a bit funny that we already have a few posts here. But why doesn’t this community appear on lemmy.ml? Can I change that, or is it lemmy.worlds fault? Because having this community just for Lemmy World users is a bit annoying. Would be great if someone is able to clear that up for me.
iOS 7+ looks ugly compared to old iOS
Who can forget those *reflections*?
