My dilemma, was that i was switched phones and did not want to 1) recover the entire phone and 2) did not want to lose all the data and settings for iBlacklist. So I had a look at the system to see if I could find the iBlacklist backup and recover to my new iPhone. And after a quick search found the files I was looking for.
Below is a guide to extract the data from the old iPhone and import into the new iPhone so you have everything exactly how it was in the old iPhone.
Requirements:
- Jailbroken iPhones
- OpenSSH on both old and new Jailbroken iPhones
- iBlacklist Cracked (you need the cracked version to generate a key as previously bought versions cannot be used if you purchased over a year ago)
Backup Location:
- /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/Images/ - This is the location of MMS images sent to your phone
- /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/iBlacklist.sqlitedb - This is the backup DB
Steps to recover your iBlacklist:
- I would start by pulling the SIM card to ensure you do not lose any Calls/Messages that were received during this procedure.
- Get the IP Address from your iPhones: Settings => Wi-Fi => Click on Blue arrow on your Wi-Fi access point => DHCP => IP Address
- Backup your database on old iPhone:
- Launch iBlacklist
- On main menu select Database Manager
- Select Backup database file
- SSH to your old iPhone:
- ssh root@[old iPhone IP Address]
- tar cvf Images.tar /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/Images
- Copy the files from old iPhone:
- scp root@[old iPhone IP Address]:/private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/Images.tar .
- scp iBlacklist.sqlitedb root@[old iPhone IP Address]:/private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/iBlacklist.sqlitedb .
- Copy the files to your new iPhone:
- scp Images.tar root@[new iPhone IP Address]:/private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/Images.tar
- scp iBlacklist.sqlitedb root@[new iPhone IP Address]:/private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/iBlacklist.sqlitedb
- SSH to your new iPhone:
- ssh root@[new iPhone IP Address]
- tar xvf /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/iBlacklist/Images.tar
- Install iBlacklist on new iPhone by going to one of the Cydia repositories providing cracked apps. (Google is your friend)
- Recover your database on new iPhone:
- Launch iBlacklist
- On main menu select Database Manager
- Select Restore database file
- Run iBLKeygen
- Done
