JohnTool - working or not working?

**carlosvaldosta** · 10-21-2007 04:28 AM

ok... I was in bliss for 2 days... I downloaded johntool, restarted, pressed the icon, heard a lovely "ding", andy phone rang in sleep mode... Until today. The only 3rd party apps I have are summerboard, installer 3, customize, sendsong, and of coarse johntool... Any one else ??? Success or failures?

My battery is draining with Johntool.

It works great for me!

After the install, it didn't work first. I then just powered down my phone completely and after that it has been working great!

It does not seem as if it would drain the battery so far. But I don't have a comparisson, since I hardly used the phone before I used John's Tool.

It keeps your network connection alive. I havn't tried it yet in 1.1.1

Getting exactly the same problem Carlos. It worked great for a few days then stopped working. I think it died when I upgraded the installer. Now, not only that but I can't stay connected to msn with Apollo. If I go in sleep mode, wait a few minutes, wake it up, it switched back to edge(which I had disabled, thankfully!).

I'm on 1.0.2
Installed:
Apollo, iBlackJack, Labyrinth, NES, Pushr, Books, MobileToDoList, weDict, Installer 3.0b4, BSD subsystem, Community Sources, Summerboard (old), rSBT, Services, JohnTool..

Okay, I think I've fixed it. What I did is I uninstalled JohnsTool then noticed that my Summerboard wasn't showing as installed in the new installer. So I installed Summerboard (old) over. It worked but then screwed Apollo. If it was on nothing else web related would work. Safari or Installer would just freeze on a white screen then go back to the summerboard after a few minutes. So I uninstalled Apollo and reinstalled it, as well as JohnsTool. Now everything seems to work as it used to...
