This is known to happen on recent devices such as iPhone 5 and iPad 4. These devices have a processor which discontinued the "standard" arm in favor of armv7 instruction. Since there isn't a non-Apple compiler, almost all existing 3rd party software won't work unless it's been rebuilt. I am working in order to have a toolchain for armv7.

This same topic was already started. Use "search" before posting to see if your question has been asked

DO NOT start topics in multiple sections, ever. If you are not sure, post it in what you think is best choice, and add note in your post. Someone will move it if it needs to be moved
If I help you or you appreciate my work, clicking that +1 button is the best thanks I could get.

My opinions are my own, you may agree or disagree with them, but they are only just that; opinions
For example: facebook is the microsoft of social networks
