iOS First Run Help Does Not Close (Want To Remove)
#1
On update 12.1 I am stuck on "First run help...." screen

Heres the rest of the message " This tab signifies that there is a menu off to the side of this window that contains extra options for this section. To acess the menu , navigate to the left with your remote control or keyboard or place your mouse pointer over the tab.

click "ok" to close this dialog. It will not appear again.


So anyways I even tried using veency from my pc to try to point exacly at the ok to close it and it refuses to close.

I tried locating the first run help... file via ssh but i can't seem to find it..

Would anybody with more experience be able to tell me where the ssh file in xbmc and what command line to set as false or w/e? Im assuming you got to set something as false since when you press ok it never cames back again. so they say.

I don't feel like waiting for another update. I just want to remove this from my screen. Thanks.

I know the overlay is the problem because my time changes in the back. So its not frozen.

Oh if this means anything im on ipodtouch 4g ios 5.1.1

I downgraded to 12.00 with the same problem.

Same problem with version 12.00

For people who want to fix this and have the same questions

I have only 1 resolution until somebody helps me . Downgrade to version 11.00

4th Method: Install with Mobile Terminal

“Steps 2 and 3 are only if you have never installed a .deb file with this method”

Download the .deb file you want (example : LockInfo)
Start Cydia, go to “Search”, type “Mobile Terminal” and install it
Repeat step 2 for “OpenSSH”
Start “MobileTerminal”
Type the following commands , then reboot:

su (press return)
alpine (press return) /!\ You won’t see the typed password then don’t worry /!\
dpkg -i nameofpackage.deb (press return, replace nameofpackage with LockInfo for the example)

Note that you can rename the .deb file like 1.deb (it’s easier to type)

Fixed the issue. Wish I could tell you more specifics, but it was probably from editing and playing around with theme files/addons over the last several months. Future reference, I used ifile to delete /var/private/Library/Preferences/XBMC and no ok screen was needed, and it returned to the touch screen theme instead of confluence. (perhaps the cause, idk)
