+* iPad Jailbreaking/Downgrading
+** iPad2,3 or iPad3,2
+*** We want to be on an untethered jailbreak, which seems to mean iOS 8.4.1. Some sources claim it is also noticably faster
+*** steps:
+    1. JB with Phoenix (via https://jailbreaks.app/legacy.html or 3uTools)
+    2. Follow instructions here to downgrade to 8.4.1: [[http://www.3u.com/news/articles/5841/untethered-downgrade-iphone-5-ipad234-ipad-mini-to-ios841-without-shsh][Untethered Downgrade iPhone 5/iPad 2,3,4/iPad mini to iOS 8.4.1 without SHSH]]
+       - Use 3uTools v2.55, or it will hang! (as per https://twitter.com/3utools/status/1455107861172797449)
+         - specifically, 2.58 was bugged at time of testing
+         - can be downloaded from http://www.3u.com/update-log
+       - for iPad3,2: Use [[https://github.com/LukeZGD/iOS-OTA-Downgrader/][iOS-OTA-Downgrader]] to enter kDFU instead of kDFUApp
+         - Ideally this would work for the whole downgrade, but it was a bit buggy :(
+    3. install jailbreak (preferably daibutsu):
+       - https://github.com/LukeZGD/iOS-OTA-Downgrader/wiki/Jailbreaking
+       - used Sideloadly on MacOS
+       - daibutsu did not support iPad2,3 so EtasonJB was used
+    4. ansible setup:
+       1. install "openssh" and "apt 0.7 strict" via cydia
+       2. =su= to root and =apt-get install sudo python vim=
+       3. edit =/etc/sudoers= to allow =wheel=
+       4. edit =/etc/group= to add mobile to =wheel=
+    5. install [[https://cydia.akemi.ai/?page/net.angelxwind.mikoto][mikoto]] to disable OTA update notifications (and some other things)
+* iPad lock/unlock via activator
+  #+begin_src bash
+    activator send libactivator.system.sleepbutton # lock
+    activator send libactivator.lockscreen.dismiss # unlock
+    activator send com.rpetrich.monocle # hide status bar
+  #+end_src
+
+* Editing preferences:
+  can use plutil from http://repo.bingner.com/ to convert from/to binary plist
+  to restart the preferences daemon after editing a plist:
+   #+begin_src bash
+     launchctl kickstart -k system/com.apple.cfprefsd.xpc.daemon
+   #+end_src
+
+* making a webclip:
+** ~/Library/WebClips/whatever.webclip
+   can place an Info.plist and icon then respring and it kind of just works
+   - Can launch with =activator send com.apple.webapp= maybe?
+     - only seems to work when it is already running (ie to switch to it, not launch it)
