Help/Support I somehow broke an app

FrazilSilver · April 27, 2016

Okay, so there's this game app that awards you with real life vouchers after you acquire a number of points from playing. (don't wanna specify because I don't want them to know and patch it)

Anyways, I broke the app by trying to disable the timer lock for redeeming points for vouchers

I used flex and pretty much looked up anything that has 'timer' in it and chose classes that seemed to control it.

This resulted to the game booting up but the elements not loading

So I removed them

And in AccountCredentials

I found a method called

'isDirty'

I was curious and I chose it and put false

I don't know if editing the timer caused the problem or meddling around with the 'isDirty' method

But afterwards, trying to go online and opening the redeeming interface won't work

The app seemed to be soft locked

You can easily edit the values in the game using game player etc or IDA, which is what I did to hack it in the first place.

I disabled jailbreak detection first after the fresh install of the app through flex so it's not that

Anyways, I've tried to reinstall, the game in so many ways

I tried to delete documents and library in ifunbox and reinstalling it

Delete the whole game directory in ifile and then reinstalling the game through ifunbox (only way to reinstall it after that process)

Also, yes I've deleted the flex tweak that I created and made a new one only with the jb detection remover

I also deleted the game log in genp in keychain with Filza

Anyone know how to get around this ?

I'm pretty much looking for a way to "fresh" install the game

It seems that my install/device was flagged or something.

Or can anyone provide me with a dummy App Store account to test if installing the game using a different Apple ID works ?

One of the theories is that I actually somehow got myself "banned" although removing the game log from genp would have done the trick. Unless they save every device's uid and ban them in their server

Or I could have simply permanently or temporarily removed the timer countdown overlay and the game would work once the timer is supposed to be over. I guess we'll see tomorrow
