[1.1.3] FieldTest gone?

**Davandron** · 02-16-2008 06:05 AM

I just upgraded to 1.1.3 (via Ziphone) and I can no longer get FieldTest to display. It still works to dial *3001#12345#* so I know the functionality is still there, but it looks like something changed in springboard.

Did this happen to anyone else? Has anyone figured out a fix?

my one question to you is,

you use the field test app??

Occasionally; I'd say four times a month on average.

Guess it's an old habit, all my cellphones since ~2000 have had the field test functionality enabled. As an engineer I prefer knowing the exact dBm value of the current tower and the nearest towers, instead of just a five-bar pictograph.

FieldTest is still there. But due to 1.1.3 changing Springboard's method of displaying apps, you'll have to find a workaround if you want it displayed on Springboard.

One way that could work is by making a copy of /Applications/FieldTest.app and then renaming any instances of FieldTest to FieldTestSB or something (i.e. make it into a third-party app).
