    Default Please help me!!!!!

    I was playing around with my iphone and thought

    "hey...i'm gonna go into Bossprefs and hide every single icon"

    Obviously...not a good idea. Now I can't do anything, and I didn't keep bossprefs visable, so I can't change anything there.

    Is there anyway to fix this, because I am seriously losing hope here.

    I assumed bossprefs wouldn't be hidden

    I wanted to hide them all, and then add the ones i wanted one by one.

    Stupid...yes I know.

    But a solution would be great

    As I said restore is your only solution, as you have hid every icon.

    Yup, restore.
    I do believe there's another way through editing of some plist file, but I'm not familiar with it, anyone who does know, chime in.

    If you're on a Mac, SSH to /var/mobile/Library/Preferences, and open up com.apple.springboard.plist. Remove this line:

    <string>com.bigboss.bossprefs</string>

    If you're on Windoze, then execute this command via a terminal:

    plutil -c xml1 /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/com.apple.springboard.plist


    And then edit the plist as above.
