Anyone who hacktivated their IPhone can use this for Fix Push and youtube

"apt.macosmovil.com"

You Going to go to cydia then add this as a source

Then scroll down look for Push Fix

Install it and it should reboot your device


Then Youtube should work, and it it foesn't connect to youtube the first time search a video then it should work/


EDIT: You can also add "http://cydia.pushfix.info" if you want Youtube Only fix
 
Does this really work? I have a friend overseas that is hactivated but don't want to get his spirits up for nothing. Can anybody that is hactivated confirm that this fixes Push Notifications?

For those that want a perfect free YouTube fix that does not also install a broken push fix that will drain your battery, please visit http://cydia.pushfix.info

Users of these broken push fixes later find out that their phone is doing about 20MB of data a day and drastically reducing their battery. You are getting thousands of push notifications that aren't intended for your phone and are silently discarded by the OS. You will also occasionally get a push message that isn't intended for your phone but will show up.

I have three YouTube fix packages for free. There are three of them because no single YouTube key works for all users. You have to try one first, but it's about 99% certain that the first one you pick will work.

For those that want working push notifications with full support for problems and/or questions for only $5.99, please see http://pushfix.info . I originally offered the beta back in October on this site and I have many satisfied customers since then. Most of my customers are outside the US and have no access to official SIM cards, nor even the knowledge to jailbreak. (they paid a vendor to jailbreak for example)

I have handled over 200 tickets regarding support issues and I also have a forum in which I answer questions and offer free support to even non-customers that have push notifications problems. Almost all of the tickets are from users migrating from the broken push fixes because they have applications that are stuck using the shared push certificates. An uninstall and reinstall of the app usually fixes it, but in some cases the user needs to contact the developer to reset their push token. If you install my fix right after jailbreaking and unlocking, it completely works right away.

I also support push over WiFi on iPhones without a data plan which in general does not work even with official activation.

For anyone who would like a chance at winning a certificate, please visit RedmondPie.com here : http://bit.ly/6ieCgp
 
Actually Relik this Push is not running me 20 Mb of Data a day barely even 5MB its works perfectly, I'm yet to find a flaw, This doesn't drain your battery by much it works like a regularly push and probably just the same as your...but i'm Going to test yours out :D
 
(I think you are somewhat "joking" about the free one working, but I'll still post this reply for others)

For those that think it works, that's up to you. The technical documents from Apple on how push is implemented will show you that it can't work for long. Working push uses about 30-50 KB a day only.

Shared certificates will cause you dropped calls and missing SMS texts because your phone is doing too much data traffic in the background.

iphoneil.net, who is the author of the push fix that doesn't work (and all the copies at all the other repos), took their fix down and did a good review of Pushfix 2.0, but it's in Hebrew because they are in Israel. You are welcome to try to read the Google translation here : http://bit.ly/4Wp7T3

Don't believe me, see the customer comments on my site and twitter/facebook. There are users who have been using push for 3 months now.
 
Well I didn't use the Push Fix mainly because i have a low end data plan, but the youtube Fix has done great not a single problem,thanks Relik sorry i ever doubted you
