vWallpaper video wallpaper released

[coachballfirm]

screw common is it at 1.0 or 1.1

As i said on my site, do not use other repo than mine!
If you've installed a "custom" distribution of my app somewhere and update from other repo, it can crash your iphone!

Don't forget this application use injection of code so a little error and you are screwed!

BTW, as i already said, just wait application uninstall itself at boot and your iphone will come back...

well just to clarify, i dont host vwallpaper or the common files on my repo.... so its not mine screwing it up!

errrr... i think you have it installed twice now!
one time from another repo and one time from original repo or something like this ...

try to uninstall by hand:

ssh in root :

cd /usr/local/bin
./ringtoneshook -uninstall

and copy/paste here results

[coachballfirm]

Hi Skrew,
I do have a question if you don't mind. I am running v0.8 on my 1.1.3 and when I restart my phone I get a fast flicker on the springboard till I put it in sleep and turn on again. This happens only one time, after that I can put it in standby and wake again with no problems. This happens only when I restart the phone. Any help or advice is appreciated. Thanks

just upgraded skrewcommon and vwallpaper to their latest versions released last night/this morning and my phone is pretty skrewed. cant put the phone to sleep, cant open any apps on the phone, both default and custom ones.

i only reply to coachballfirm....

sorry, i didnt imply you meant me, i was just stating in case anyone thought my repo was to blame, which it isnt since i dont host your program.

[coachballfirm]

I had the exact same thing happen...really frustrating. Anyhow, I ran ziphone 3.0 to jailbreak the phone again. This allowed for all of the 3rd party apps to stay on the phone and everything is back to normal. I am just uninstalling the video wallpaper program for now...

Okay, I lied...everything looks fine but none of the programs run...looks like I will need to do a complete restore...

[foraken68]

foraken : good decision .. btw sorry

hey bro, no need to apologise...you did a great job. it was a killer app. if 0.6 or 0.7 is on the repo, i will still install it, everything was fine with 0.6 for me. Keep up the work...look forward to your future updates!

[skrew]

ok i deactived this package for now...
i had once again checked all :
- uninstalling
- reinstalling
-with or without vwallpaper enabled
rebooted each time and no problem

So i look for ppl who want to give me some times for testing

@coachballfirm: i already gived informations: look at post @706

I had an issue with v wallpaper
my screen was flickerring for 10secs and it wouldn't let me tap any apps or system icons
and also wouldn't even let me put iphone in sleep state (top button)
I logged on through winscp and deleted by hand the vwallpaper directory
and logged on throught putty
and entered the following commands
cd /usr/local/bin
./ringtoneshook -uninstall
reboot

my iphone Is now A ok
I uninstalled all vwallpaper related packages from installer, rebooted and made a new clean Install of vwallpaper and runtimes
vwallpaper now works a treat!
