Font Swap
I loaded Font Swap to my phone and it hosed it completely! It took me 2 hours to finally get it to restore and jailbreak again! What a nightmare! Anyone else have this issue with Font Swap!?

As a general rule when using that program you ALWAYS choose the option to install and RESPRING iphone.... not relaunch font swap.

If you got Problems thats the easy way to do it :
First: copy the things from /Applications/FontSwap.app/StockFonts/
to /System/Library/Fonts/Cache/
then reboot and everything is fine....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just realized that they removed the option that kills your iphone
in the font Swap app I just installed... So now no more worries about that.
I thought this was great for those of us afraid to install it again like I was.
They also added font previews I think (or was that always available?).Last edited by LuvMYiPhone; 05-07-2009 at 12:11 AM.
