I have a 1.1.4 iPhone jailbreak w/ ZiPhone 2.5c. I have run into several apps that do not launch or do not work with 1.1.4. I thought it would be a good idea to make a thread that lists these apps s that 1) People don't download them expecting them to work, 2) devs can be aware of this and fix them for use in 1.1.4, and 3) so if someone lists an app but it does work...someone else that knows how to get that app to work can chime in with instructions:

Here is a list of apps that people have not been able to get to work properly or launch at all:

- Customize (original and custom both don't change the docks nor hide icons so we just have to wait til next week. Spicy Chicken will be releasing a compatible version)
- DragCopy
- FiveDice
- iFlix
- iSMS - doesnt load any SMS you get or send. Must be reading the wrong directory or something
- LightsOff
- Make It Mine
- Summerboard Themes (most don't work, some do....even after "fix" installed)
- Status Style
- Sudoku
- TicTacToe

I'm sure there are many more. so please post below if it's not listed and I'll add it. If I've listed an app that does in fact work on 1.1.4, please let me know so I can edit the post.

Thanks.
 
I've had no problems with Lights Off, and in reference to the guy above me, I've tried everything possible including Boss' fix and still can't get any SummerBoard themes to work. I've read about a couple others having the same problems, and I've also read about some people not having any problems, so it kinda goes both ways I guess. I'm over trying to fix my SummerBoard, and am now just waiting for a more compatible version to come out.
 
1. Customize (original and custom both don't change the docks nor hide icons so we just have to wait til next week. Spicy Chicken will be releasing a compatible version)

Does everything on customize original work except for docks and hiding icons? Like does changing charging battery icon and sliders work?
 
The Lockbox App still doesn't work. It's not really exclusive to 1.1.4 because it has never really worked. But this is the app I want the most (I had it on my Pearl and it's very useful if you don't use the same password for everything). I even emailed the creator and informed him personally and he told me it would be fixed that weekend. That was about three weeks ago and it still does nothing.

You mean they're releasing a new one for 1.1.4? I've always had problems with Customize and I never downloaded it after my upgrade because I was sure it wouldn't work.

Yea. On his website he says he's got the sdk and is gonna go all out. He's also looking for suggestions so hit up thespicychicken.com if you have any requests.

To the author of this thread: it's gotten messy. May I suggest just keeping a list of apps that don't work in your first post. Just keep editing that one when someone adds a new apps that doesnt work.

Here's another one for the list: iSMS - doesnt load any SMS you get or send. Must be reading the wrong directory or something.

Good thinking.

Also, add DragCopy to the list. Won't even let you install it, saying it's intended for 1.1.(1.2.3.). Dang, baby!

DragCopy could easily be the most useful program there is (next to tinyproxy). Wireless drag & drop file transfers... ohhhohohhohohh... but I've yet to get it to work on any firmware. :(

The Lockbox app works for me. I think I used iSpazio's 1.1.4 Compatibility tweak to get it to install.
 
On my iPhone, running 1.1.4

- Make It Mine - Works
- Summerboard Themes -90% of them work
- Status Style - Works
- Sudoku - Works
- TicTacToe - Works

Were they installed prior to 1.1.4? If you were to uninstall them, then reinstall....do they still work? Is there anything else that needs to be installed for you to get them to work?
 
Hmm...it works for me.

Okay well I just installed it again and it has a different icon so maybe it's been fixed. Having a problem getting into it as it's asking me for a password on my first time opening it. Since I haven't used it how can there be a password? Did it do this to you?

The first time I opened it, it asked me to create a password.
