How To: Download And Install The Spire Cydia Tweak To iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

December 26, 2011 by Jaden Easton-Ellett 209 Comments

Earlier tonight we told you that hackers Chpwn and Ryan Petrich released a legal port of Siri called Spire for older models of the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. The Spire Cydia tweak is an extremely easy way to install Siri on the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 4G, iPod Touch 3G and first generation iPad. Unlike previous ports of Siri, like the H1Siri Cydia tweak, that are unreliable and buggy, the Spire Cydia tweak is very stable and is actually legal. This is because Spire downloads the necessary Siri files directly from Apple’s servers and allows you to specify your own proxy server, rather than one public proxy server. While this may sound all great, there are a few catches to the Spire Cydia tweak that are mentioned below:

Requirements:

  1. Jailbroken iOS Device tethered (NOT semi-tethered) running the iOS 5.0 or iOS 5.0.1 firmware (more info).
  2. An iPhone 4S or access to a friends iPhone 4S to obtain 4 unique keys – assistantID, speechID, validationdata and finally x-ace-host (more info).
  3. A Siri proxy server (more info).
Note: If you do not have an iPhone 4S, or find it too complicated to setup a Proxy Server, wait a few days and I am sure people will release their own 3rd party proxy servers for people to connect to.

If you would like to learn how to install the Spire Cydia tweak to use Siri on your older iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad then you can follow this Spire how to guide from iJailbreak.com.

How To Install Spire Cydia Tweak

Step 1) – The first thing you will need to do is Jailbreak your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad running the iOS 5.o or the iOS 5.0.1 firmware. To do this please visit iJailbreak’s official Jailbreak Section where you can find an applicable Jailbreaking guide for your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

Note: At this time the Spire Cydia tweak is not compatible with the Semi-Tethered iOS 5/iOS 5.0.1 Jailbreak.

Step 2) – Once you have a Jailbroken iDevice running the iOS 5.0/iOS 5.0.1 firmware you will need to launch Cydia from your SpringBoard (homescreen).

Step 3) – With Cydia up and running you will need to go into the Search tab and type in:

Spire

Step 4) – When you see Spire come up on Cydia’s search results you will need to click on it, read through the warnings/descriptions, and then install it to your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

Note: The Spire Cydia tweak uses about 100 MB of data, so please connect to Wi-Fi before installing.

Step 5) – Once the Spire Cydia tweak has been installed to your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad you will need to reboot and then obviously boot tethered using a Jailbreaking tool like RedSn0w.

Step 6) – Upon rebooting your iDevice into a usable state you will need to launch the Settings.app and go into the Spire tab.

Step 7) – From the Spire tab in the Settings.app you will see a text area to enter a Proxy Host. This can be a proxy host created by you (as explained in the Requirements section at the top of this how to guide), or a 3rd party proxy host that you have access to.

Note: As I mentioned previously, if you wait a few days I am sure people will start to release URL’s to their Proxy Servers for people to connect to. Please check our Spire Porxy Server list section by clicking here.

Step 8 ) – With the Spire Cydia tweak now configured properly you should be able to use Siri on your older iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

Note: As pointed out by helpful people in the comments section below, in order to get rid of Voice Control and enable the Siri GUI. You will need to first go into the Settings.app, then the General tab and finally into the Siri tab. From here you can actually enable Siri and disable voice control.

Congratulations! You have just installed the Spire Cydia tweak to your older iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. Don’t forget to share any questions you may have or relevant thoughts in the comments section below and follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Google+ for more updates if you have not already.

    Hi Jaden – a step by step getting the keys off a 4s and setting up the proxy server tutorial would be great.

    you have to go settings/general/siri and enable it. the only thing left is to fill “proxy server” field under regulart settings at the bottom of menu. and here we have a problem :-)

  22. Seiya Yamada says

  33. Jacques Du Toit says

    December 27, 2011 at 7:09 pm

    any news on how to find a Proxy if you don’thave an iphone 4?

  34. Jacques Du Toit says

    December 27, 2011 at 7:10 pm

    did you install Spire from cydia?

  35. Jacques Du Toit says

    December 27, 2011 at 7:13 pm

    just ‘search’in cydia for ‘spire’

  36. Rhys Taylor says

    December 27, 2011 at 7:18 pm

    I had issues too. I simply deleted all my sources from Cydia, and then reinstalled them one by one. Had a few issued with Big Boss, but it worked on the second attempt, and Spire appeared in my search straight away.

  37. Jacques Du Toit says

    December 27, 2011 at 7:33 pm

    when you find the proxy, can you give it to me too :-)

  38. Ju Yang says

    December 27, 2011 at 8:13 pm

    i cant find Spire in Cydia.. i tried many times to exit from cydia and reopen it again. and i had reboot my iphone 4 3 times. but still dont get it.

  39. johnn15 says

    December 27, 2011 at 8:41 pm

    can i have one please? 

  40. Kareen Achman says

    December 27, 2011 at 8:23 pm

    Per Spyruf: “If i use my friends 4s keys and make them public will his keys  get banned and he won’t be able to use siri?”
    -I too, am waiting to hear about this.  If my friend’s keys won’t get banned, then I’ll go ahead and do this.  If not, seems kind of pointless…

  41. Chris says

    December 27, 2011 at 9:07 pm

    I downloaded Spire and did a tethered reboot, but when I hold down the home button Voice Control still pops up. Is this happening to anyone else, or am I just doing something wrong? Would appreciate any advice, thanks.

  42. Trololololol guy says

    December 27, 2011 at 9:07 pm

    I can’t find spire in cydia on my 3GS . Please. Help me

  45. JonnyE says

    December 27, 2011 at 11:53 pm

    Is there a deb file download with Spire to install it that way? I am not able to find it in Cydia as well.

  46. Clint22 says

    December 27, 2011 at 11:54 pm

    Just stop!  You don’t know what your doing.

  47. Bkoldy says

    December 28, 2011 at 12:07 am

  48. Krishnasagarpm says

    December 28, 2011 at 12:07 am

    I have found more than 5 4s udids…..if anyone creates me a proxy with one, can have the other udids for free
    Imessage me: krishnasagarpm@gmail.com

  49. Hexcruncher says

    December 28, 2011 at 12:22 am

    Chris, go to Settings/General/Siri then activate Siri which will disable Voice Control

  50. Caliharo says

    December 28, 2011 at 12:35 am

    was Spire taken off Cydia ?

  51. Caliharo says

    December 28, 2011 at 12:36 am

    were you able to find Spire?

  52. Bkoldy says

    December 28, 2011 at 12:42 am

    Agreed i cant find it bkoldy@comcast.net imessage me

  53. Ray says

    December 28, 2011 at 1:04 am

    Spire doesn’t appear in search. :(

  54. Brayden024 says

    December 28, 2011 at 2:40 am

    delete the big boss source. then go to the home page of cydia and click add more sources. then it will show big boss. download it then relaunch cydia. the search for spire and it will be there. just did it!

  55. cornilius_lane says

    December 28, 2011 at 4:26 am

  56. Lim Sur Hui says

    December 28, 2011 at 5:06 am

    hi how do we get speechID, assistantID, x-ace-host, validationdata from iphone 4s

  57. Anon says

    December 28, 2011 at 5:43 am

    woah that’s alot of blobs you have there bro

  58. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:08 am

    You’ll probably have to wait for Apple to officially support it. I’m sure jailbreak devs could make Siri support other languages (I’d like Dutch!) but I’m sceptic how well it would work compared to officially supported languages.

  59. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:11 am

    Google it. The internet is a big place and you’ll probably quickly find an answer.

  60. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:11 am

    No.

  61. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:13 am

    Nowhere, you can’t use the official Apple servers, which are used by the 4S. You’ll need to set one up yourself or use a proxy someone else has already set up and made public. Read the article, they have a link to a list of proxies somwhere.

  62. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:13 am

    Try reinstalling it.

  63. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:17 am

    Then none have been made public yet. Did you read the article? This was released last night so it will be a while before the first proxy servers pop up. Of course you could always Google.

  64. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:21 am

    You don’t need an iPhone 4S for the proxy. You just need the keys so Apple thinks you’re connecting with a 4S. To set up your own proxy you’ll need a computer running Linux or OSX (might also be a Windows version somewhere) or acces to a proxy someone else is hosting on their server/computer.

  65. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:24 am

    The url for the proxy will very likely be the IP used by your computer (which is running the proxy) to connect to the internet.

  66. Nick Betting says

    December 28, 2011 at 6:25 am

    No, Spire downloads the Siri files directly from Apple.

  67. Losh11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 8:48 am

    hey dude the current Cydia (1.1.3) is unstable with many bugs that’s why the repo’s have nothing in them.
    I know this becausee it happened to my iPhone

  68. Losh11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 8:49 am

    Cydia is currently unstable 

  69. Losh11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 8:52 am

    delete the BigBoss Repo and download it again from recommend sources

    delete the BigBoss Repo and download it again from recommend sources and now it will work

  72. Losh11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 8:55 am

    You know if your iPhone 4S gets blacklisted it will only be disabled for about 2 weeks

  73. Losh11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 8:55 am

    delete the BigBoss Repo and download it again from recommend sources and now it will work

  74. Losh11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 8:56 am

    delete the BigBoss Repo and download it again from recommend sources and now it will work and it is the BigBoss Repo

    iphone4 ios 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak, installed spire and everything except connection is working. I heard siri’s voice sorry I cant help right now. yeeyyyy :)

  77. Hamim 11 says

    December 28, 2011 at 1:39 pm

    I downloaded it but whenever I say something it say I’m sorry but I can’t repl try a while latter

  78. Esslawrence says

    December 28, 2011 at 2:26 pm

    OK. So I successfully installed the proxy server, and even successfully pointed my 4S to it. I installed Spire on an old 3GS and a Touch 4G. I have the certificates. I set the proxy server in Spire. I can see the request coming through on the proxy, but it doesn’t work. I keep seeing in the description of using spire that you need the 4S keys — but no where does it say where to get them, or what to do with them after you get them. Anyone have any ideas?

  79. Masarchitect says

    December 28, 2011 at 2:29 pm

    I have same problem as Chris, cant find siri button in general/setting

  80. Nav says

    December 28, 2011 at 4:09 pm

    Don’t listen to the jackass who’s telling everyone to delete the BigBoss repo and reinstall… because it won’t reinstall. I’ve got a 3gs old bootrom with 06.15.00 running iOS 5.0.1 unlocked. Every time I try to reinstall BigBoss repo I get errors until I cancel. Then it shows BigBoss repo but Spire can not be found in a search. 

  81. David Mensah K says

    December 28, 2011 at 4:09 pm

  82. Eoin Lavery says

    December 28, 2011 at 4:20 pm

    Un-jailbreak if you are tethered then download the newer Redsn0w version. Jailbreak your device to get the 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak. Open Cydia and search Spire and download it, make sure your connected to wi-fi because it is 100mb. Once its downloaded you have to reboot. When your device turns on, check again.

    Hey Nick,

    Siri is not an option under general.  I have installed spire, do I need to install a siri GUI?

  111. iHackstuf says

    December 29, 2011 at 11:18 pm

    I am in the same boat.

    All you have to do is go to changes, and hit “Refresh”.  No need to reinstall the repo!

    Hello people! Little problem with spire. If you have tomtom uk on your iphone4 then spire stops it from working by giving you a black screen with tomtom logo in the middle. It just sticks on that or crashes. I tried uninstalling and re-installing in many combinations but tomtom only started working when spire was uninstalled. Can anyone else confirm this and comment? Much appreciated.

  120. ~~ShoTime says

    December 31, 2011 at 12:02 am

    So I have iOS 5 Untethered. I followed your tutorial down to the period and when I start up Siri it wont respond to my questions. Any suggestions?

  121. Kevyine says

    December 31, 2011 at 8:34 am

    Siri isnt responding, if I press the microphone button nothing happens, not even a “Sorry I don’t have a connection”. What do I do? I’m using iPod Touch 4g 32gb on 5.0.1 untether.

  122. TOSH says

    December 31, 2011 at 2:26 pm

    Hi Pal. I have the same problem, and so do other users as i have read quite a few reports on this and it seems that tomtom uk is not compatible along with Siri. It doesn’t mater what you do it just wont work, I have tried time and time again, so if anybody has a way around this it would be much appreciated by me and the rest of the JB community.   

  123. Amjad Dndon says

    January 5, 2012 at 8:23 pm

    I know its probably a stupid question, but would the 4s that you get the Authentication keys from need to be jailbroken?

  143. Reyardia says

    January 8, 2012 at 4:26 pm

    I learned quickly not to reboot Untethered cause your device will end up in an infinite loop and will restart FOREVER…Please anyone who is reading this do NOT boot untethered  after installing spire or your device will have to restore!Mine did!!!

  144. Reyardia says

    January 8, 2012 at 4:27 pm

    That’s while Spiure is downloading siri from Apple. be Patient it will finish in less than an hour

  145. Reyardia says

    January 8, 2012 at 4:30 pm

    i BEG all of you not to boot Untethered when your install is finished!!!

  146. Reyardia says

    January 8, 2012 at 4:32 pm

    oh and i had an issue:when everythings done successfully i load Siri and it says sorry i can’t answer your questions right now and then i connect with my VPN and it works! what’s the drill?

  147. Colekacherski says

    January 8, 2012 at 9:23 pm

    Does it have to be a tethered jailbreak? I used a redsn0w 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak…

  148. Jauhari says

    January 8, 2012 at 10:13 pm

    Thanks it’s success installed, but we got this message…. what’s wrong?

  149. CHPWN says

    January 8, 2012 at 11:39 pm

    Relax dudes, I´m working on a script that will throw the authentication keys and automatically paste the proxy server URL from the Iphone 4s you´ll select to the Iphone 4 of your choice to save you the PITA this proccess implies.
    P.S.: This means you´ll just run the script every 24 hours, to get Spire always working for you.

  165. Opticker says

    January 19, 2012 at 12:14 pm

    I can’t launch any app that uses the internet after i installed spire. Safari, Downloaders, Game apps, Viber, WhatsApp! Anyone has the same problem? tell me how u solved please. I have a seriously slow internet and it would be irritating as hell to download it again.

  166. A Owenm says

    January 21, 2012 at 7:03 pm

    I got it on iPad 1, but when I open up Siri and press the button, the button just flashes. Also the background is just black, not the grey Apple background.

    u need good wifi

  188. Mnewell says

    February 10, 2012 at 6:12 pm

    So, I started installing Spire through Cydia on my jailbroken iPhone 4 and I realized that I was using my 3G connection instead of WiFi. Not wanting to take the 100MB data hit on 3G, I switched out of Cydia and enabled WiFi in Settings and went back to Cydia. The Spire install, stalled. Nothing was happening for several minutes so I quit Cydia (mistake!) and tried again. Now, every time I attempt to install Spire, it begins but then almost immediately starts spewing error messages saying: “Failed removing file at path:” followed by the path of whatever assistantUIbundle it’s trying to get at. All other apps install perfectly via Cydia. What gives? How do I fix this?

  189. Agustinvacan says
