FaceForward - Hack Enables Hidden Facebook For iPad App
Facebook quickly blocked the hack that enabled the hidden yet-to-be-launched Facebook for iPad app hidden in the iPhone app.
But chpwn, developer of jailbreak apps such as Infiniboard, Infinidock, Infinifolder, ProSwitcher, VoiceActivator has released a jailbreak tweak called FaceForward to re-enable the iPad app on a jailbroken iPad.
Here’s a quick description of the jailbreak tweak from Cydia:

Cool.Thanks for the info :)
-
chpwn your a genius!
-
Great stuff! Well done - works like a treat.
-
"Reboot" should read "respring"A small point, except for those with a tethered JB who might not want to re-JB :-)As Scott said "works like a treat"
-
We got the Reboot device option on a jailbroken iPad 2, but good point for users on a tethered jailbreak.
-
Well you can run you can hide but u cant escape the power of jb!
-
I installed it on my iPad 2 (was prompted to respring, not reboot) and the Facebook app starts out in iPhone mode, then switches to iPad mode. However, none of the icons is functional. I can look at them, swipe between my two pages of icons, but nothing works.Tried rebooting iPad 2, but still now joy. Now uninstalling patch..Reid

It works like charm! Thanks! :D
-
Awesome....but can anyone care to explain why Facebook just doesn't release a FaceBook App for iPad already?
-
Fb+ipad+apple=money, there the reason
-
How to have the "...via iphone" to "...via ipad".Any ideas anyone?
-
Mine works but no chat feature, only the messages lol how do you get the live chat ?
-
I can't seem to find faceforward in the bigboss repository. Anyone else having this problem?
-
Well this is pretty USEFUL.. You THINK that Facebook would make a Universal App for the iPad.
-
ok..Just did rebooted & ALL i gotta say is..WOW!!!!!!!!!! THIS **** IS AWESOME!!!!!!.
-
wait till cydia download packages then search for faceforward :D
-
I got it now.I didnt I have open ssh installed which is why it wasn't showingAnyone with the same problem, make sure open ssh is installed via cydia before searching for faceforward
-
All I have to say is wow!!!! Good job!!! This was needed bad... Makes a big difference!!! Thank you guys works great
-
Great job! I'm Facebooking more often.
-
Works great. Lettering a little grainy though.. Not high quality...but good enough for me. Thanks........
-
Installed fine but when I push say "news feed" ... nothing!
-
Fixed it!..... remove patch...delete facebook app..reinstall FB app (dont log in).. reinstall patch... log in...presto!
-
works like a charm! THANKS.just my 2 cents. maybe fb didn't officially launch this app due to some bugs/performance issues. for one, i'd like to point out that the commenting column has a fixed width. if the comment is longer than the column width, i have to scroll to the side. not a good thing if i were to read a lot of comments.also no chat feature.other than that, it works great!
-
Thanks for the tip works great!! Was bummed about no chat then quite by accident realized if you turn iPad to side view there is a chat column on the side with all online friends.
-
Turn iPad to side orientation for chat column to appear
-
Thank you for the info! Thanks to everyone who make jailbreaking user friendly for someone like me!
-
Also remember to turn off your RetinaPad display if you have on.
-
I've the the app and patch installed...no problem there. Then I hit the news feeds I can see info, but am not able to scroll down. Anyone else have this problem?
-
I just thought I'd ask.This morning, FaceBook with Faceforword installed stopped working.The window displays the enlarged version of FaceBook app.But it doesn't work anymore.Any thought?
-
No longer works for me after update to 3.5i tried to downgrade through **** to an older FB and re-installed FaceBook... doesnt work.How do I get Facebook for iPad back??
