Any update for ipad2 ios5 guys? It’s annoying if you have a dent right at the volume buttons. There is no way to disable the always showing volume widget in the middle of my iPad

Looks like Activator 1.5.8 breaks this hack. Reverting to libactivator 1.5.7 resolves this for now. Google for a download and install over 1.5.8 and it should work again.

It worked before. But after I update some cydia package, it can not work again.

THANK YOU! I had the exact same problem, except that the volume button was sticking in the up position, so I couldn’t listen to music on my phone unless I wanted to hurt my ears considerably. I’m so glad this hack exists, now I can listen to my music blissfully using the ipod app’s built in volume control again

I hope there’s an update to this application someday with an on/off switch.
I have my ipod touch 2 G in a body glove case made for an ipod touch 1G and its sometimes hard to get it in the case and not have the down button constantly pushed. It would be nice to toggle this on/off without uninstalling the app.
otherwise, its very handy. *=)

I tried downloading the hack but I keep getting error message saying that Host is unreachable ( http://apt.saurik.com).
Is there another source I can use?

BEST…CYDIA…HACK….EVER!

Well at least for me! Can’t understand why nobody did it sooner. My iPhone’s Volume Button has been broken for the past year and a half (and from my searches on the net this appears to be a none too uncommon problem). Didn’t have the guts to open it up so was stuck with an annoying ‘ringer’ logo every 5 seconds. But even before the buttons were broken I would always accidentally press em, which was just as annoying.

In other words this is a simple app that makes a big difference. Big thankyou to the developer (nathulal?). I would send you a thankyou note but can’t seem to find your contact details…anyway if you happen to stumble across this blog post please take this as a much deserved thank you note

THANK YOU!!!!
