What's the plan? At the end of our previous blog post, we got PreBoard to show its UI. But we had no idea if getting SpringBoard to work would even be possible, since we didn’t have SEP emulation. Still, we wanted to see how far we could get without it. Before SpringBoard could show anything, we had plenty of issues to fix. Although the backboardd and SpringBoard processes were starting and stable, they were stuck in different places. Our strategy was to go through system logs, find suspiciou
