What happen to zoom slider in Camera app when I touch the screen? ios5
So, if you are like me you just upgraded to ios5 and the simplest things have seemed to be removed or extra steps are now needed to activate. The zoom in camera app is one of these things. I touched the screen like usualy and nothing. I was like hmm. What in the world happened to the zoom. I googled it and you have to pinch to zoom. Well, that takes two hands and when you are driving and wanna take a pic you don’t have that hand free to pinch. A little google later I found this solution. Does not work in messages and only works on camera app. Oh well.

Unreal, so in my restoring and upgrading I thought that part of the reason my vibrate stopped working was due to the jailbreak. I WAS WRONG.
Seems the vibrate motor is held in place with a piece of tape and if that comes loose the vibrate stops working. If you tap the top of the phone you will notice the vib will start working. Does not seem like a long term fix and would probably have to go fight with apple to get a new phone. After just spending 2 days finally getting my phone back to working not sure I want to restore to original and go argue with apple.
So for google search– My iphone4 wont vibrate. My iphone stopped vibrating. No vibrate on iphone. How to get my iphone to vibrate again?

Like most jailbreakers we play a game of Jenga with our phone. Each day I update Cydia and install the newest hack. BUT, adding that one might just mess up your phone and then slowly it starts lagging and the home button becomes unresponsive. You have to decide do you restore and start over or try to upgrade. I was hesitant to upgrade to 5.0 since there wasnt an untethered jailbreak available. Well, you can now jailbreak 5.0.1 in about 2 mins using Redsn0w. I upgraded the phone and well 5.0.1 adds things and well, it sucks. I was using quick reply and that stopped working and the notifications are horrible. Very hard to get stock NOTIFICATIONS to go away to use SMS+ Overall I hate that I upgraded. i used an old restore and that restore maintains settings that when you restore you dont actually need the package in cydia to work, like fake carrier. That will carry over. Well vibration stopped working long time ago and I wanted it back so I decided to start fresh. I restored and setup as a new phone. but, I used the backup of aps using openbackup and I think that brought over all the bad stuff. The phone is worse then it was with original restore. I will start over when I get home from the Texans game. I will post some new stuff I found that helped me merge old files to a new restore in case you manually saved your contacts and SMS. I would suggest manually backing up these items in case you want to do a fresh restore from scratch since you cant extract these from a backup unless you buy a program. I use Diskaid, itis not free, but there is a trial period and if you google it you can get use full version for free.
UPDATE: I have since restored 3 times trying to get a working phone. Tried as new and then restored a backup and then new phone with no data and then I couldnt even edit my contacts so restore 3 is going off now to restore to last working version.
UPDATE: OK so I used a backup of iphone form itunes and then manually re-added in cydia the apps I wanted and runs smoooooooth and great. I think once the phone is messed up it is the cydia files that are corrupt and uploading fresh files fixes the messed up files.
