    Default Notes, Customize, and SMSD broken on 1.1.3 - help?

    I just used that wonderful AT&T user jailbreak guide above this thread and I'm now pleasantly jailbroken on 1.1.3. Maps works, my phone makes calls, I can play GameBoy Advance - all the good stuff. However, a few of my favourite apps are stubbornly broken.

    Notes: Upon uploading my old notes.db file to mobile/Library/Notes the notes application can't save new ones. It's very important to me that I keep my old notes - I have 104 of them, many which are personal thoughts and things. Is there a way I can fix the notes app?

    Customize: Customize hangs for a veeeery long time and then crashes. I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times to no avail - I thought this version worked with 1.1.3?

    SMSD: Sometimes people send me duplicate texts or I need to foward a few so I like to use SMSD - it crashes just like customize does.

    I'm wondering, are there any fixes to my problems without having to go through that whole jailbreak process again? Note that I have another 1.1.2 jailbroken iPhone to work with if I need files from it or something.

    customize works fine, you just need to set the suid flag as it needs access to system files.

    chmod +s /Applications/Customize.app/Customize

    Just make sure ssh is turned on in the phone, launch your ssh client(puTTY for doze, Fugu or whatever for Mac) login as root, password alpine, and type in the command just as I said in the previous post.

    you either spelled something wrong, dont have customize installed (or the rite customize), or ur iphone is possessed.

    try this:
    cd /Applications
    cd Customize.app
    chmod +s Customize
    hit thanks if thanks are due.

    Ok I executed this and everything looked good. However it still crashes as soon as you try to open customize.

    Before this when I tried to open it cust would pause for a good 10sec. Now it will close in like 1sec. I even went in and changed the cmlist? file to 1.1.2

    to fix SMSD, CallID and WeToolUS use this commands:
    i have a mac so i used the terminal

    rm -r /var/root/Library/AddressBook/
    rm -r /var/root/Library/CallHistory/
    rm -r /var/root/Library/Notes/
    rm -r /var/root/Library/SMS/

    ln -s /var/mobile/Library/AddressBook /var/root/Library/
    ln -s /var/mobile/Library/CallHistory /var/root/Library/
    ln -s /var/mobile/Library/Notes /var/root/Library/
    ln -s /var/mobile/Library/SMS /var/root/Library/

    after this all apps worked like a charm in 1.1.3
