I got a different problem. I use dev team's method and I install BossTool to move the Applications folder. After doing so, my iPhone behaved weird. The spring board keeps looping "Edit Home Screen" message and white apple. I had to hold SLEEP and HOME to force iPhone reboot. And then, it stuck to Recovery Mode. I have to re-do all process again.

I had tried twice to move Applications to /var/root, each time ended to springboard looping problem, and I had to restore iPhone. Does anyone can tell me how to do? Shouldn't I move the Applications folder? Anyone has same problem?

Any comment is much appreciated.


My iPhone
OTB 1.1.2 --> accidentally update to 1.1.3 via iTunes --> restore 1.1.1 -->
jailbreak --> update to 1.1.2 --> jailbreak --> jailbreak 1.1.3 by Dev Team method.

Yep Ive had the exact same problem! I didn't know that was causing it though.. and I dont know how to fix it sorry

Anyone has an idea? How to fix it?

[update]
I tried to soft upgrade to 1.1.3 again. But this time I found that after I install several
apps on iPhone (like, Finder, NetServices, 4 games), I reboot it and I got the looping problem
again: "Edit Home Screen" message and white apple and springboard showing and "Edit Home
Screen" message and ...

Can anyone help me out? Thanks a lot.

I think I found the cause. I changed the passwd of SSH, such that the Springboard will crash. Don't change the passwd in 1.1.3, which has been stated in the Featured of Installer. I didn't see it before. I should check the info more often.

Then, about moving the Applications, instead of moving it to /var/root, it should be moved to /var/mobile if you use Dev Team's method. Check this post , in which there are detail descriptions on how to solve the Installer problems.

Now I have enough space in major disk, and I don't need to worry about installing 3-rd party apps.

Thanks Dev Team.
