Booting iPhone Into Verboose Mode

[depthnerd]

I found this neat command from an iPod Touch Fans forum thread here which allows you to change the normal "Apple" logo only boot screen to the screen with a bunch of lines of code/commands scrolling through the screen (i.e. verbose mode). If you've used ZiPhone before, you'll know what I am talking about. I read through some of the posts in the iTF thread and some people are claiming that verbose mode made their devices boot faster.

Here's a few videos of it:

YouTube - NEW iPOD TOUCH BOOTSCREEN

YouTube - iPhone Hack: Boot in Verbose Mode

To get the verbose mode:

1. Make sure you have BSD Subsystem 2.1 installed.
2. Open a terminal
3. Issue this command:

nvram boot-args="-v"

4. Reboot
5. You'll see the Apple logo for a few seconds and then it'll start showing the verbose mode like ZiPhone and in the YouTube video.

To go back to the normal mode:
Same steps as above except issue this command to clear the verbose argument:

nvram boot-args=

Yeah...it's getting obvious you have a mental disability. If you want to carry this out more PM me instead of cluttering my threads like an idiot.
