TuT [TUTORIAL][Video] How to set up theos on your iDevice [iOS7/iOS8]

Rook · July 8, 2014

Updated Tutorial:

Here's a video I made for anyone which wants to start making iOS tweaks:

New tutorial on how to install theos: http://iosgods.com/topic/4855-tutorial-how-to-install-theos-dependencies-on-your-idevice-2015/

Requirements:

- Cydia

- Jailbreak

- This repo: http://coolstar.org/publicrepo/

- iOS Toolchain

- Darwin CC Tools

- git

- MobileTerminal

- Apple File Conduit "2" (to transfer the zipped SDK to your iDevice)

- iFile/Filza (to extract the zipped SDK)

- Perl (from CoolStar's repo)

- 10 minutes of your time

The code that needs to be run in terminal (you can also do this using PuTTy on PC)

cd /var && git clone git://github.com/coolstar/theos.git

If you need a download link for the SDK then PM me.

To start a new project, run: /var/theos/bin/nic.pl

EDIT: CoolStar's repo has changed to: http://coolstar.org/publicrepo/

EDIT2: If you get the "first argument to `word' function must be greater than 0. Stop." error, you need to do the following on your 64bit device (iPhone 5s, iPad Air, iPad Mini Retina).

Go to /var/theos/makefiles/targets/ and rename the "Darwin-arm" folder to "Darwin-arm64"

Next go to /var/theos/makefiles/platform/ and rename "Darwin-arm.mk" to "Darwin-arm64.mk"
