    user Dell knows what is up: TOUCH SCREEN FIXED WITHOUT RESTORE

    I used CyberDuck to SecureFileTransferProtocol into my iPhone directory and followed Dell's advice:


    "In case the touchscreen will not work, try to remove all files from a folder /Library/LaunchDaemons/, except for files: com.openssh.sshd.plist and com.ripdev.remindme.plist"

    Then I rebooted the phone.

    My touch screen now works.

    Thank you Jeebus! Thank you Dell!

    In case the touchscreen will not work, try to remove all files from a folder /Library/LaunchDaemons/, except for files: com.openssh.sshd.plist and com.ripdev.remindme.plist



    After that reboot iPhone.



    It can be made by means of program iBrickr on a computer, or with other file browsers for iPhone.







    Uninstall Kate:

    Install Kate in Installer.app, after that open Kate.app, unmark

    checkboxes and press "Apply", after that uninstall from Installer.app.



    Or remove all files and folders:

    /Applications/Caterpillar.app/

    /Library/MobileEnhancer/

    /var/root/Library/RiPInstall/

    /private/var/root/Library/RiPDev/

    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.ripdev.remindme.plist

    It can be made by means of program iBrickr on a computer, or with other file browsers for iPhone.

    Hit the 'about' button in installer and all will become clear!

    I have had the same problems and everyone else here. It was all fine and dandy till I registered (paid for) my copy! I have emailed ripdev requesting a full refund, will be interesting to see the reply

    Many thanks for all the help... glad to say my iphone is back to normal. I will be interested to see the response from the developers. Software like that should come with some kind of warning. Will watch out for other comments on this with interest...

    Just letting anyone interested in Kate know, that it is working fine with my iPhone by now. My specs are as follows:
    - regular german phone, jailbreaked only, with regular sim card (did not remove simlock)
    - 1.1.4
    - no summerboard, no other conflicts with other similar programs

    Will keep you posted if anything happens.

    A very good question. We need to point somebody from Nullriver in the direction of this thread. I never got a reply back from Rip Dev on the email I sent them.
