Mar 16, 2014 at 19:38 comment added Andrew Larsson Oh, thanks for reminding me. I'll take a look at that app.
Mar 16, 2014 at 15:59 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson See comment above. Thx.
Mar 8, 2014 at 15:24 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson Sorry about the delay. I've been busy. I tried doing what you said in your last comment; however, the TV Go app still displayed Were Sorry... and greyed out the display. If you have the app (it's free) I'd really appreciate it if you could find out what to turn off to stop it from displaying this message. I've tried using DisplayOut BTW in order to mirror the screen, but the app displays the message as an overlay anyway. Thank you so much!
Mar 5, 2014 at 16:35 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson Alright... let me try that... Its the TV Go app by Xfinity BTW...
Mar 5, 2014 at 2:56 comment added Andrew Larsson Oh, it looks like it hasn't gotten through the Flex patch approval process yet (it used to not have any filtering back when Flex first came out). For your specific application, go under UIKit, then go to UIScreen, then choose +(id) screens. Go back to the list of Units for the patch, and then make sure to set the one we just added to always return NULL. That's what the patch I put together uses. If it works, let me know, and then I'll post it as an official answer here on this question. If you let me know which app it is, I could make a more specific one that works if this one doesn't.

Mar 4, 2014 at 17:10 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson I fixed it! I didn't try your method yet... That'll probably do it too, but I patched the app that was giving me problems. Let me post it as an answer so you can see it...
Mar 4, 2014 at 17:05 comment added Andrew Larsson In Flex, go to the cloud tab, go to SpringBoard, and then install "Disable External Screens." Let me know if it works.
Mar 4, 2014 at 16:38 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson I installed Flex 2 on my iPhone. Can you give me a link to your tweak (or tell me how to make it). I really appreciate it!
Mar 4, 2014 at 16:28 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson I think you mean this: ifans.com/forums/threads/…
Mar 4, 2014 at 16:26 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson I've never heard of it. How could I get it? BTW, thanks for all the help. I really appreciate it! Yeah, if you tell me how to get the tweak up and running, I'll test it out with my A/V adapter and let you know if it worked.
Mar 2, 2014 at 22:54 comment added Andrew Larsson I took a shot at it, and I put together a Flex patch that may or may not work. I don't have an A/V adapter, so I can't test it. Do you have Flex?
Mar 2, 2014 at 22:38 comment added Andrew Larsson After looking at these developer documentation articles, I'm realizing that you'd have to write a tweak to do this, and that it's not as simple as just changing a .plist entry or throwing together a Flex mod. UIScreen::screens is an NSArray of all of the screens attached to the device. It's not set anywhere in any files. It's managed in Objective-C code inside of the UIKit framework.
Mar 2, 2014 at 16:58 comment added HelpingHand Here's the developer page on UIScreen: developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/reference/…
Mar 2, 2014 at 16:54 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson Yeah, I think that this: if ([[UIScreen screens] count] > 1) is probably the key. I'd have to find out where UIScreen screens is and set it to 1. Do you think that it's in AVFoundation? I'll keep looking. I think I'm going to run Grep through the whole /System directory to look for that variable. BTW, thanks for the link!
Mar 1, 2014 at 23:45 comment added Andrew Larsson Actually, I found this developer article a few days ago. I haven't had the chance to go over it in detail, but I'm pretty sure it mentions a method that allows you to see if there are any displays connected. You could just override that method with a homemade tweak (or maybe even Flex) to say that there are never any external displays connected. developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/WindowsViews/…
Mar 1, 2014 at 17:20 comment added HelpingHand @AndrewLarsson I think I've found something: developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AVFoundation/… See allowsExternalPlayback
Mar 1, 2014 at 7:21 comment added Andrew Larsson It's in AVFoundation somewhere.
Feb 28, 2014 at 13:54 comment added HelpingHand @Andrew Larsson Yes, thank you. You said you know where it should be... Can you tell me that location so I can help you out? Thanks again!
Feb 27, 2014 at 20:56 comment added Andrew Larsson It's possible. I'll keep looking.
Feb 27, 2014 at 19:34 comment added HelpingHand @Andrew Larsson You can make apps think that you are on wifi when actually on 3G; I don't see why you can't make apps think that there is no external display. It's puzzling!
Feb 27, 2014 at 19:30 comment added HelpingHand @Andrew Larsson Please, any clues to this would be greatly appreciated by not only me, but by everyone looking for this on google. It is something that I have not been able to find for at least a month now.
Feb 23, 2014 at 7:52 comment added Andrew Larsson I saw this question the day that you posted it, and I've come back to it every day since then. I know where it should be, but I just can't seem to find the exact method that you need to override.
Feb 21, 2014 at 23:31 comment added HelpingHand Tumbleweed. Can anyone help?
