Tutorial (REAL FIX!) How to Fix GameCenter Permanently on Any iOS Version!

Mr. Hyperion · December 22, 2016

I am not responsible for your phone, so if you screw this up, it’s on you, and not my fault!

THERES A VIDEO FROM ME AT THE BOTTOM!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Back up your phone in iTunes first

You will need access to the RAW file system on your phone. You can do this via several methods:

Install OpenSSH and SSH into your phone from a computer

iFunBox

iFile or any other app that gives you FULL file system access to the machine.

Go to the following path

/private/var/mobile/Library/GameKit

you can also get there via

User -> Library -> GameKit

Back up your entire GameKit directory to your local PC. Should only take a few seconds. (this is easy if you are using SSH or iFunBox). This backup is just in case something really goes wrong. You’ll probably wind up deleting these backup folders once you get your phone working.

on your phone, delete any loose files inside the root of the GameKit directory.

Next, go inside the “DelayedRequests” folder. I had 65 folders (and many other files and within each of these).

select all those folders inside “DelayedRequests” and delete them all.

Now your entire “GameKit” folder should contain only the “DelayedRequests” folder and nothing else at all (just an empty folder and one directory, no other files).

At this point I reset my iPhone HOME+POWER and let it reboot.

After reboot, logged in and went to the GameCenter app. WORKS!

Went to the GameCenter Settings app – WORKS!

So what this means to me is that there is some corruption of data in these files inside the “GameKit” and/or “DelayedRequests” folders.

Wiping them out of Gamekit does NOT wipe your saves or anything else, it just clears out this cache of files and lets your phone start building a fresh set.

If this has helped you, please reply and let me know!

Coming from a 14 year old????

Have a look

Get a GameCenter ipa then do stuff in Xcode to make it work then sign it somehow and install on device. Haven't figured it all out yet
