Let's collect knowledge like we did with Updating extensions for iOS 7 - paste in your notes and share what you've learned, and somebody else will organize it later. :) If you want to collaborate over IRC, see IRC for how to connect to #theos and #iphonedev.
Put notes here! Yes, you!
- iOS 8.0 Headers and another set of SpringBoard headers (made with two different class dumping tools).
- The package
syslogd to /var/log/syslogseems to not be working. An alternative - also as listed on TheiPhoneWiki.
- In things like SBStarkBanner* classes, Stark is the codename for the blur-heavy UI since iOS 7
- The term 'Display Identifier' has been removed from SpringBoard. Methods that used the term usually have a 'Bundle Identifier' equivalent; e.g. -[SBApplicationController applicationWithDisplayIdentifier:] and -[SBApplication displayIdentifier] are now -[SBApplicationController applicationWithBundleIdentifier] and -[SBApplication bundleIdentifier]
- "Has anyone looked into granting entitlements in iOS 8? It would appear the popular method of hooking "_XPCConnectionHasEntitlement" no longer works." "I haven't had a whole lot of time to do testing or look for better methods but I found "_BSAuditTokenTaskHasEntitlement" which appears to have a similar function to "_XPCConnectionHasEntitlement", its part of the "assertiond" process which must be hooked in order to access it, so far it's worked. More specifically, part of the "BaseBoard" private framework within "assertiond"."
- Mobile application containers are at /var/mobile/Containers/Application
- "By any chance would anyone happen to know what the view Reachability invokes is?" "no idea, but my wild guess would be that it's springboard contexthostview for that app."
- FrontBoard is a new thing
- "Does Theos work on iOS 8?" uroboro responds here
- xTM3x has been doing some research into preference saving
