I had a couple friends try it on their newly restored iPhones, and they worked flawlessly. They both had the exact processes running at the same time.Īlthough I didn’t delve much deeper into the problem (could have tried using Top and system logs), I have come to a conclusion that Skype crashes ONLY on jailbroken iPhones. I decided to run SysInfoPro and compare running processes (non-mobile substrate) between safe mode and regular mode. Nothing seemed to work, the app would still crash within one minute. I decided to do a little bit more troubleshooting – deleting mobile substrates one by one to see if it helped or not, and then deleting them all. I went into safe mode using SBSettings and tried out Skype – to my surprise, everything worked perfectly – I used it to talk to my friend for about 20-30 minutes. Skype seems to freeze within 30-50 seconds while in the app – no matter what you do (calling, idling, chatting, etc). That problem, while small and fixable, is not the biggest problem. Using SBSettings Clippy toggle to switch it off seemed to do the trick also. Getting rid of the keyboard custom clicks (tock.aiff) seems to work with regular themes. #SKYPE FOR IPHONE NOT DOWNLOADING TRIAL#I later found out, through trial and error, the culprit for keyboard crashing is Custom Winterboard Keyboard Click Sounds and Clippy. I had problems getting it to work at all, the app would crash when you try to use the keyboard to login to the app. It seems that all jailbroken phones do not play well with the Skype app. The highly anticipated app for the iPhone has just been released in the US: The developer of mobile substrate has already stated that it will not work. #SKYPE FOR IPHONE NOT DOWNLOADING HOW TO#Do not ask how to do it or point out that it doesnt work. This means you cannot use voipover3g or backgrounder with Skype app. To fix the Skype crash, all mobilesubstrate based hacks are disabled on the Skype app. #SKYPE FOR IPHONE NOT DOWNLOADING UPDATE#Update to v-1 (or newer) of mobile substrate. No need for intelliscreen or any other hacks. Update (March 31st, 2009): Saurik has released a new mobile substrate and the issue is fixed. Thank you Saurik and everyone else that posted comments that helped us figure out the underlying problems. I then tried to disable some of the IntelliScreen Performance extensions (Backgrounder, FileSchemaMobileSafari, MailToAttachmentMessageUI, PrefHooker-iKeyEx, SBHooker-iKeyEx, SBSettings, Veency, VoIPover3G, WinterBoard) and discovered that the culprit was Veency. If you use Intelliscreen, From User Daron:Įventually, I discovered that Skype would launch if I *disabled* IntelliScreen. Library/MobileSubstrate/DynamicLibraries/ You can check what mobileSubstrates extensions you have running and installed by looking in the folder: Known extensions or apps that cause skype to crash: mcoolphone, mobilelog, AdvLock, Hood, and Intelliscreen (it may work if you mess around with the performance settings in Intelliscreen). ![]() I had no problems using Clippy, Cydelete, Cyntact, Five Icon Dock, QuickGold, SBSettings, VoIPover3G, and Winterboard as mobile substrate extensions. This is not a Mobile Substrate problem, but a problem with the extension or app itself and the author of it will have to update it. ![]() They may be still conflicting with how Skype runs. If you are still experiencing crashes with the new Mobile Substrate and have disabled clippy and\or custom keyboard sounds, make sure to check other mobile substrate extensions or apps that run in the background and disable them. If you are still experiencing crashes when you open up the keyboard, disable these two components. Latest clippy and keyboard custom sounds now also seem to work with Skype using the latest Mobile Substrate update. You must add it in the ist located in /Library/MobileSubstrate/DynamicLibraries/ Quick Tip: The voipover3g string for Skype is: -All lowercase. You can now use Skype app with VoIPover3G!. This version fixes the problem entirely allowing for mobilesubstrate addons to work with Skype app. Update (Apby BigBoss and ranova): Saurik just released mobilesubstrate -1. No need for editing plist files just update the VoIPover3G app. Update (Apby BigBoss) I just pushed an update to Crash-X’s VoIPover3G v1.0.2 that will enable skype in the plist for you. ![]()
