Disclaimer: Don't do this on 2.0 or you'll get stuck at the boot logo.
If SpringBoard.app SHA1 signature is modified on 2.0, it won't load.

The trick for 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 resides in the modification of SpringBoard binary located here:


- Copy it in your computer
- Rename the original one in the phone to SpringBoard.bak
- Get a Hex Editor (i use 0xED)
- Set it in Overwrite Mode
- Search for the String "volumeChanged:" and replace the v by any letter and save.



Then send this modified SpringBoard binary back to the phone.
Use SSH to preserve the Permissions/Ownership to 755 root:wheel.

Restart your phone and voila !

I'll try to work on a 2.0 version this week.

Can't express how much I love you! Thank you, Tack, Xie xie!

I have 1.1.4 and Windows and I used xvi32 for hex-edit and WinSCP for SSH.

Thanks !! Would just love to be able to use my old 8Gb with 2.0.
I´ll be checking this thread once an hour during the weekend
