Tutorial: How To Fix Weather App On Evasi0n

The community has been waiting for such a long time for a proper iOS 6 jailbreak, and as of Monday that dream finally came true for all of us. For the most part, upgrades and hacks went off with only a few minor hitches long the way, but one of the most common bugs is that the stock Weather app does not work under jailbroken conditions. The Evasi0n team has however isolated the problem down to a corrupted com.apple.mobile.installation.plist which is actually a pretty easy problem to fix. A proper update should be coming in the next few days or hours, but if you're the impatient type you can use this guide!

1. Download an app called OpenSSH from Cydia. Also for Widnows you may need software like PuTTY to get things going.
2. Once it has been installed open Terminal on Mac or Command Prompt on Windows
3. Get the IP address of your iDevice through an app like SBSettings or by heading to Settings > Wifi and selecting your network. The IP will be clearly visible as the top number above the "Subnet Mask."
4. In your command/terminal window type "ssh root@ [your ip address from Settings]"
5. Permission may need to be given. Type "yes" and then the administrator password "alpine" (or whatever you may have set for your password)
6. The device will be logged into.
7. Now copy and paste the following code into your command window:
   

   #!/bin/bash

   chmod -x /usr/libexec/mobile_installation_proxy

   killall -9 mobile_installation_proxy

   rm /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore

   launchctl stop com.apple.mobile.installd

   launchctl start com.apple.mobile.installd

   while [ ! -f /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist ];

   do

   sleep 1

   done

   while [ ! -f /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore ];

   do

   sleep 1

   done

   sleep 10

   chmod +x /usr/libexec/mobile_installation_proxy

   sync

   reboot

8. This will cause a reboot, and your Weather app should be working as normal. May skies be blue from here on out!

Update: UIKit and Evasi0n updates have been dispatched to fix this issue. Remove any cracked app loaders you have installed and then update to these fixes to get your Weather app going again. In my case, I was able to install cracked app loaders again once things were booted.
