K so I just tried to move the fonts, when it was done boss tool said I had 80mb of free space, I taught it was all good , so I go to run installer and it crashes to springboard, tried a couple times same thing.

so im thinking prolly just need a reboot, so I reboot and I get the infinite spinning circle.

I still got access to the file system with Iphonebrowser. I can see the system/libray/fonts is not empty, but they might just be caterpillar fonts...


where exactly does boss tool move the font to?

hmm I just noticed /system/library/fonts/ and /var/fonts/ are exactly the same

happend to me 2 weeks ago, i had to restore. i got the deadly spining wheel

there must be a way to reverse it tough , i can get in with ssh aswell.

i`d hate to restore, i got some important stuff in the notes, calendar , sms , hate to loose all that again...

thats what i tought but, nop

Same thing happened to me but with the apps. iTuens saves a backup of your phone and after jb I set up the phone as the one previously connected and it restored my calendar, no contacts though

bosstool working fine for me...moved ringtones, fonts and applications. now free space is 131 mb..earlier it was 17mb... also rebooted the phone.....working fine so far. BTW will restoring the phone put back everything as it was???? Please reply...Thanks

I had the same problem. After looking with iphone PcSuite at the directory, I found the problem: I guess Bosstool moved the fonts to the bigger disk and created a link. With this link it made a second directory Fonts under Fonts and the iphone didn't find the fonts anymore.
So moving the font-files and the cache directory back to the main Fonts directory solved the problem

Font-files should be under /System/Library/Fonts/.. and not under /System/Library/Fonts/Fonts/... and the Cache-directory-files under /System/Library/Fonts/Cache/...

You can use ssh to create the symbolic link from /System/Library/Fonts/ to the place BossTools has moved them.

Code:

ln -s /the/path/where/the/fonts/folder/is/now /System/Library/Fonts

or move them back to their original place.

Code:

cp -pr /the/path/where/the/fonts/folder/is/now /System/Library/Fonts

Hello XianLi,

I am wondering how to ssh to the iPhone if it's not even turning on. I am getting the apple with the spinning circle on the screen. How can I proceed to move the Fonts back to the original place in order for the phone to work again. I prefer to fix without a restore.

Thanks in advance,
Rds.
