Siri, this is the most distinguishing features of iPhone 4S that makes the older of iDevices users like iPhones, iPad and iPod touch looked jealous. Why do they have to jealous to the iPhone 4S with its Siri? The answer is simple; it is simply because the older iDevices cannot be used for sending messages, make calls, set reminders, and more using the device’s user voice. In case you are desperately expecting Siri on you device without replacing the older device with the new one, there is a solution available allows you to enjoy the Siri on unsupported device. The solution itself comes in the form of tool named Spire, but in order to get Siri on unsupported device using this tool, the device users need to jailbreak their device first. Previously, porting Siri on an unsupported device becomes an illegal stuff to do due to the encryption used in iOS 5. However, since the of unencrypted keys in one of iOS beta firmwares had been released around Christmas, and thanks to the developers who make the Spire available, Siri is now legal to be used on jailbroken device such as iPhone 4, iPod touch 4G, iPod touch 3G and first gen iPad.
Using Spire seems as simple as installing a Cydia tweak, but it is actually not. In order to enjoy every advantages of Siri on jaibroken device, the users need to do much more than like installing a Cydia tweak. Apart from that, it must be remembered that the tweak will only run on devices running iOS 5 jailbroken properly, as semi-tethered jailbreak is not supported. If you really want have Siri on your device, there are instructions available below to help you to get everything done.
Instructions to get Siri on iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad, iPod touch 4G/3G using Spire:
1. The process of getting Siri is started with visiting the Cydia store, and from the BigBoss repo, download the newly released Spire package. The tweak uses about 100MB of data, so in order to manage downloading the required file, as per the developer suggest, it is better to download over a stable Wi-Fi connection.
2. The installation of the tweak will require you to reboot your device. If you’re tethered jailbroken still, you’ll need a tool like redsn0w or iBooty to perform a reboot.
3. After the download and installation procedure is complete, a separate menu will appear for Spire in the Extensions tab of the Settings menu.
4. Now comes the tricky part of using Spire, that is, setting up a proxy server for the tweak. While Spire will install Siri on a device, access to Apple’s official server is still required for Siri to work. Therefore, we need to set up a proxy, which will make the server think that your device is actually a 4S. Even though theoretically there are more than one methods for accomplishing this, the most intuitive and practical method seems to be the copying of proxy settings from an actual iPhone 4S. Chpwn, the co-developer of Spire, shares some techniques for that on his blog, and you can find one by visiting the blog.
Once you have done with instruction steps above, now you should have Siri on your device. You can get Spire for free in the Cydia store’s Big Boss repo. Have a nice try people.
