TuT [Tutorial] How to hide your jailbreak from the Apple Store

February 13, 2015

I have to go in so that they can check out my phone and hopefully get a new one. But everyone knows that Apple declines service to jailbroken customers, so what am I to do? Hide it. This will work almost everytime, I've gone into the Apple Store with a jailbroken phone for service four times already and they have not noticed yet

Hidden Content

1. Install poof from Cydia. This will hide all your jailbreak apps. Hide everything including poof.

2. Uninstall PreferenceLoader. This will take away your jailbreak settings.

3. If openSSH is installed, uninstall it. (to be safe)

4. Change your root password back to "alpine" (to be safe)

5. Do not go into safe mode. There is a popup that will give it away, and a thing on the status bar that says "Exit safe mode".

6. If you are still on a jailbroken iOS 7 with Pangu, delete "panguaxe.installed" (pretty sure that's what it is called) at /var/mobile/Library (again, I'm pretty sure it's there) This file is for the Pangu jailbreak app to check if you are jailbroken or not when you plug in your device to your computer. It is completely safe to delete it.

When you are done, you can go into safe mode. libhide and all other MS extensions will be disabled. This means that Poof will be visible once again. Now you can set all your jailbreak apps to visible again, and install everything again.

The Geniuses are pretty easily tricked so give this a shot
