How do you add and remove widgets from IntelliScreenX?
IntelliScreenX uses the iOS 5 Notification Center. You can edit what is displayed in the notification center by opening iOS 5 Settings, and tapping Notifications. You can turn widgets on and off, rearrange the order, and apply widget specific settings.
Under IntelliScreenX settings, you'll find the Mail, Facebook, Twitter, and RSS widgets which can be enabled/disabled and reordered individually as well.
Can you change weather location in IntelliScreenX?
The weather widget uses the Apple iOS 5 Weather widget. It uses the settings from the weather app. By default, the weather app uses your local location. The location is update automatically. However, to conserve battery usage, we have changed the widget to not poll the location each time Notification Center is shown. Instead, it is updated no more than once every 12 hours (on display).
If you would like to update the location manually at any time, simply tap the weather area.
If you would like to set the location permanently, you can do so inside the iOS 5 Weather app.
Why doesn't the "Respring" button work in IntelliScreenX QuickSettings?
Where is the Weather and stocks widget on the iPad?
How do I adjust the number of Calendar events displayed?
The calendar widget is the iOS 5 stock notification widget. You may select the # of calendar items via Settings -> Notifications -> Calendar and select 1, 5, or 10 events to be displayed.
IntelliScreenX extends the default Apple widget providing a number of days to display. We have not yet extended the # of events nor the ability to choose which calendars displayed. We hope to do so in the future.
How do I choose a calendar displayed in IntelliScreenX?
Does Messages+ work on the iPad?
How do I remove the slide to unlock?
How does the IntelliScreenX Ticker work?
The IntelliScreenX Ticker can be enabled under Settings -> Notifications -> In Notification Center (or if it's in Not in Notification center, turn it to on).
The idea behind the Ticker is displays new Twitter, Facebook, and RSS updates. To keep the Ticker up-to-date with only new items, once you view those updates (by viewing that particular page for > 2 seconds), all items for that page will be removed from the Ticker.
Does IntelliScreenX work on the iPad?
Does IntelliScreenX use additional battery?
11/10/11 Note: We have resolved a consumption issue in update 1.0.25 which affected all previous beta versions for some users in some situations.
----------------------------
IntelliScreenX has been designed to be a very light-weight addition to the Notification Center. Examples of such are not including WebView's in our widgets to not require extensive CPU processing of touch and data.
However, there are 3 key components that will change your battery consumption from a typical day's use with and without IntelliScreen.
1) With IntelliScreenX, users have reported greater phone usage as it's been more convenient to use. This may seem obvious, but we like to point it out anyways :).
2) IntelliScreenX is often accessed on the Lock Screen. One issue with this is that the"Slide to Unlock" animation uses about 20% CPU to animate. This will increase your battery consumption as you view content on the Lock Screen.
3) Stocks Ticker! We are not big fans of this widget as the animation consumes about 20% CPU to animate, and also fetches data every 30 seconds. Our recommendation is to remove the Stocks Ticker from notification center.
How do I use Messages+ only when I've purchased IntelliScreenX
Does IntelliScreenX work with TwitterBot, TwitterList, etc. instead of stock Twitter?
No. IntelliScreenX only opens in the native Twitter app for now.
IntelliScreenX is crashing - please help!
We have done extensive testing with IntelliScreenX - however, because the jailbreak community works in shared processes, conflicts with other applications may occur.
We kindly ask you remove all other extensions for MobileSubstrate and only install IntelliScreenX to troubleshoot. If it crashes, we'd love a crash report and are VERY committed to fixing any crashes immediately.
If the problem occurs after installing another library, we will work with the developer of the other product to help resolve how to fix it.
We greatly appreciate your patience on helping resolve issues as they arise!
Known Conflicts
Currently, there is one known crash conflict, which is Barrel. Currently - the work around is to disable "Experimental FolderEnhancer Fix" in Barrel Settings under Preferences.
My Facetime is not working over 3G with My3G. What's wrong?
Why isn't YouTube showing in High Def with My3G?
- Make sure your license is valid.
- Go into the My3G App and make sure YouTube is checked.
- Try respringing or rebooting your iPhone. YouTube will be backgrounded and may not pick up any configuration changes.
I can only see the 'Hold' button when in a phone call. Where is the Facetime button?
Is MyWi 6.0 or My3G a one time fee or monthy?
None of our apps are monthly. All minor upgrades are free.
On occasion, with new features/enhancements, we release a new name for an existing product, (such as MyWi 6.0 for MyWi). This is after significant investment by us on the development of the product. You may choose to keep your old license or upgrade to the new product.
We can not guarantee future compatibility support/upgrade support but try our best!
How Do I setup TruPrint?
There's nothing to setup! TruPrint will find your network printer automatically, if the printer supports Bonjour or SNMP or a Canon network printer (you must install the Canon iOS app).
If your printer does not support the above, please be patient. We will be adding additional printer discovery support as fast as possible!
(Note: We will reset our free trial every time we add additional printer support!)
TruPrint found my printer, but the print does not work successfully. What can I do?
You can try "Restart Printer Service" within the TruPrint app. If that does not works, you can report the issue to us (there is nothing else you can do). We are updating the app often to expand printer support.
Will TruPrint work with a USB Printer?
Will TruPrint work with a printer attached to an Airport Extreme?
I can't find my printer in TruPrint. Can I add manually?
I live outside the US. Where IntelliID work for me?
Does it cost a lookup when IntelliID returns the wrong information?
Usually, yes it counts as a lookup.
We do our best to provide the best information available regarding the CallerID name associated with the incoming phone number. However, we're not perfect :). There is a cost with each lookup, so even if it's not correct, it will count towards one of your lookups.
If the carrier returns no information at all for the CallerID name, then it will not show up as a lookup (will count as a failed lookup) and will not count as a lookup.
Why does IntelliID sometimes show a City/State?
Does IntelliID return names for Wireless Callers, like AT&T?
What happens when I run out of IntelliID lookups?
The name that IntelliID displayed was wrong, how can I fix the information?
Why can't I see the MyWi 6.0 hotspot on my iPhone 5?
The iPhone 5 introduced support for the 5ghz band. If your laptop doesn't support 5ghz, it's possible MyWi is broadcasting in 5ghz. If you are associated with a WiFi access point, try disconnecting wifi and then start MyWi.
Note:
MyWi 6.0 defaults to 2.4 ghz unless it's already connected to a 5ghz WiFi AP. If it is already connected, in order to prevent that disconnection, it broadcasts at 5ghz.
Will MyWi work without a 3G connection?
In some limited ways yes, but likely not in the way you are hoping to.
If you have a 3G connection, MyWi will create a hotspot for your other devices or a client ondemand connection if you have MyWi OnDemand.
If you do not have a 3G connection, you can bridge an internet WiFi connection to other devices. Please do not confuse this with magically creating an internet connection. It won't. :)
Can MyWi work with the Wii?
I'm having problems with WiFi Tethering. What should I do?
We have redesigned MyWi 5.0 to be 99%+ successful. If you are using MyWi, please upgrade to MyWi 4.0.
If you're using MyWi 5.0 - here are some basic troubleshooting steps:
- Try rebooting your iDevice (we know - it's not Windows but sometimes a reboot helps)
- Turn off WEP. Believe it or not, many folks mistype the key either on the WiFi tethering side or the client side.
- Try another type of laptop/device to connect to the WiFi Hotspot. Some devices don't support Adhoc Networking, some drivers don't work correctly. This will help troubleshoot if it's the one device or something else. For WiFi from Windows please make sure that your computer supports connecting to an Ad-Hoc network. Some Windows 7 users have had to go into the properties for their Wireless NIC (in Device Manager) and enable Ad-Hoc support and/or upgrade their NIC driver.
- Make sure you have uninstalled any other tethering solution. Some apps, like PDANet will run a background service all the time which will prevent another DHCP server from running (which prevents MyWi 5.0 from correctly assigning you an IP Address).
If these steps didn't help, here are some advanced troubleshooting steps:
- If you can connect to the WiFi hotspot you created, but can't connect to the internet:
- Again - remove WEP and change the name of the WiFi Hotspot SSID on your iDevice and restart the WiFi tethering. Check the devices WiFi Network settings and see if you have obtained an IP address and a DNS server entry. If not, please send us a Syslog so we can help troubleshoot.
- If you can't start the WiFi Hotspot, try again. If it continues to not start, and you have rebooted, it might be easiest to restore your iDevice. We have 100% success rate for users that restore which indicates that they have installed something else on their iDevice which is conflicting. Again, this can be apps like PDANet or others.
Lastly - please do not use a cracked version. A reasonably large percentage of folks having problems have a cracked version which does not work. The cracked versions make the App say it's purchased, but the real part of MyWi knows that your trial is expired.
I already paid for MyWi - Why does it tell me to pay again for MyWi 6.0?
MyWi 4.0 is a complete rewrite due to complexities involved with iOS 4 on Apple's behalf. We hope you understand that our efforts to create MyWi 4.0 were many more times than that of the original. Other Intelliborn products such as IntelliScreen, Elert, My3G, IntelliDial and Tlert have been released as free updates given the more simplistic nature of the work required to make them function on 4.0.
In Cydia, you should be able to login with your existing RockID that you used to purchase MyWi and receive the discounted upgrade price to MyWi 4 ($9.99 US) by clicking on "Associate RockID" inside the description within Cydia. The full purchase price of MyWi 4.0 is $19.99 US.
Do I have to pay for tethering with my carrier if I use MyWi/MyWi 6.0?
Can I USB tether and WiFi tether at the same time?
Note: If you are using USB to WiFi tethering and turn on WiFi Tethering, your USB traffic will go through 3G (of course).
Does MyWi 6.0 support Bluetooth Tethering?
Is MyWi 6.0 or My3G a one time fee or monthy?
None of our apps are monthly. All minor upgrades are free.
On occasion, with new features/enhancements, we release a new name for an existing product, (such as MyWi 6.0 for MyWi). This is after significant investment by us on the development of the product. You may choose to keep your old license or upgrade to the new product.
We can not guarantee future compatibility support/upgrade support but try our best!
What's the difference between Status Bar Icon and Tethering Bar?
What does USB to WiFi bridging mean?
Can MyWi 6.0 create an Infrastructure network instead of Ad-Hoc?
Can MyWi 6.0 work with PS3, PSP, or Kindle?
Yes - on iPhone 4/5 with iOS 4.2.6+, MyWi 6.0 can create an infrastructure mode network.
For other iDevices, - no. The WiFi firmware only supports adhoc network creation. The PSP, PS3, and Kindle devices do not support connecting to an Ad-Hoc network.
Are IntelliID, MyWi 6.0, IntelliScreen X, and My3G compatible with iOS 6
IntelliScreenX, IntelliID, MyWi 6.0, and My3G are now compatible with iOS6.
Does IntelliScreenX, MyWi 6.0, and My3G run on the iPad?
How many devices can I install my purchased license on?
You may install your purchased license on up to 5 devices you own. You may transfer your license(s) if you replace/upgrade your iPhone. If you restore your iPhone, you can simply reinstall without any transfer.
To redownload - simply rejailbreak your iPhone and via Cydia, install the software. You'll need to open Cydia and re-sign in using the same Cydia login.
What happened to Elert, MyProfiles, and IntelliDial?
Unfortunately, there wasn't enough demand for these products so they have been discontinued. Anyone who has purchased the products may continue to download the products and use them on iOS4. There will not be an update for iOS5.
We apologize for the inconvenience but hope you understand that we're dedicated to delivering even better apps!>
Do you have any discount codes or combination discounts if I buy many licenses/multiple devices?
I purchased a license - but when I retrieve my license, it says it's a trial license
If you have purchased via Rock and are using a new phone:
- Please click "Associate Rock ID" when you are viewing the descriptin within Cydia.
If you have purchased via Cydia:
- Please ensure you signed in and linked your device to your Cydia Account.This is either a facebook or google email account and password. You will enter this on the Cydia home page under manage account.
If I restore my iPhone, will I need to purchase a new license?
No - Your license is tied to your iPhone serial # which never changes, regardless of restore/firmware.
Can I transfer my license(s) to a new iPhone?
Simply open Cydia and sign in on the home page. You will need to use the same Cydia login used when you purchased the app. This will be either a facebook or google email account and password.
Do you offer refunds?
No - please trial the product for 3 days. If you are satisfied with the application, purchase it and support future development.
What are the requirements to install Intelliborn apps on my iPhone?
You will need a Jailbroken iDevice. Intelliborn apps will not be in the iTunes store as they do not conform with Apple's current development restrictions. Feel free to petition Apple to make an exception.
If you do not already have a Jailbroken iDevice, you will need to jailbreak your iDevice.
