Touchfree and [ULTIMATE GUIDE] Jailbreak/Activate/Unlock Virgin iPhones v1.1.1

**beerglass007** · 10-21-2007 07:20 PM

I used the following process to unlock my 1.1.1 phone

[ULTIMATE GUIDE] Jailbreak/Activate/Unlock Virgin iPhones v1.1.1

It uses the touchfree program, but leaves loads of directorys and files on the iphone.

Can these be removed?

Look in private/var/root/touchfree

Can these be removed?

What version of touchfree did you use? Because I used version 6 and I dont have that directory.

are you saying AnySim, if that is the application you use following this guide "[ULTIMATE GUIDE] Jailbreak/Activate/Unlock Virgin iPhones v1.1.1" then you can remove Anysim.

You can remove the anysim from the appication menu yes.

But what about the touchfree

I backed mine up and renamed it, the phone fails to boot .

Just get a apple logo, lucky wifi and SSH still loaded and i managed to bring it back.

So surely everyone else has the same folder and problem. What is this touchfree folder and contains...

I would restore your phone and this time run touchfree 6 on it.

Hi.
I have the same "problem" althoug I'm not sure it actually is aproblem.
I also have the /var/root/touchfree
It contains the files for springboard and summerboard, and I believe it starts springboard frpom there instead of the original place it is supposed t start from.
(it also contains some unix commands and the installer.app)
That might be why you can´t boot it after removing the folder.
If this really is meant t be, I'm not sure of.
It seems for example my rSBTbt is unable to arrange the icons on my summerboard screen 2. I think thats because htere exists two springboard settings on different places on the Iphone now.
Maybe the touchfree really is supposed to have cleaned itself out after the process was finished. I don´t know.

The new "alpha" release gives you the option to install OpenSSH rather than the usual dropbear, so this is why I used the new 0.6 touchfree app.

What is left in /var/root/touchfree/ is the installer.app, SMBprefs.app, Summerboard.framework, some unix commands, the original springboard.plist and the new springboard.plist, which points to the summerboard.framework folder.

So, if you wanted to clean things up, you could probably uninstall summerboard, the installer, remove the ".orig" from the springboard.plist. But, I'm not sure where the original springboard.plist would need to go and if it's even needed anyway.

All the other stuff you could probably just ".back" and remove later on.

Maybe someone else can fill in the blanks?
