nvram/AppleID/Location Services/Dropbox issue

[UberN00b]

Apparently it's not a great idea to spoof your MAC using the nvram command on iOS 5.x.x before setting up your device with your AppleID account. I know this is the case because I've nvram'd a couple of times before and had no issues with Location Services or iCloud because I already had everything setup. 

Now that I've reset my MAC with "nvram -d wifiaddr" Location Services is still screwed up. Although I can toggle Location on in SBsettings, I'm stuck staring at an opaque screen in Settings/Location Services when I go to enable Dropbox (which is required in order to use). And yes, I've tried it in Safe Mode.



I hit up google to find the location of Location Services in iFile in hopes that I could simply change a value and enable Dropbox. All I found was "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.locationd.plist" and there is nothing in it I recognize. DropBox aside, I don't see a value for Maps, Find My iPhone, Wififofum or anything.

It'd be nice to fix this because at this point in time restoration is not an option for me.

That's because it's a binary plist. Use plutil to decrypt it.

Plist plutil from DJHartley.myrepospace.com/ wants to remove BigBoss Recommended Tools and Erica Utilities. I don't have a PC to transfer the file to, any alternatives? If not, screw it, I just reinstall them.

Erica Utilities already provides "plutil": com.ericasadun.utilities: /usr/bin/plutil

Unless im missing some minor detail I don't see any difference:

This using plutil by itself.


------------------------------------------------
plutil -convert binary1 /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.locationd.plist (I know I should've copied it first, face-palm)




-----------------------------------------------
plutil -convert xml1
/var/mobile/com.apple.locationd.plist






EDIT: Or maybe I'm in the wrong file altogether. lol
