SemiTether Status Check

[Massie]

So yesterday I happened to open SemiTether and saw that my reboot wasn't protected anymore. I reapplied SemiTether and it's protected again but it made me wonder?what exactly does SemiTether do, and how/why does it sometimes come undone? For instance, does it come undone on a respring, etc.

yeah, it is a little unnerving seeing this: "Recheck periodically to make sure you are safe". every time i've checked i was safe/protected

but soon, hopefully, this will be a memory (for 5.0/5.0.1 users)

i was thinking, have you ever seen it in action? maybe you need to remove/reinstall

It's always worked fine, and the app does say to check once in awhile. Just not sure why it "turned off." That was the first time I'd seen it do that.

Everytime I check my semi tether it says "not protected"... I'll look right now...

See!!! But Everytime my iPhone randomly reboots it starts up again...

I was wondering this as well.. Every time I've checked it's in the green OK status but I keep getting paranoid and checking. Hopefully before I just get used to checking we won't have to worry about it anymore

Noticed today that it changed after I had been in Safe Mode. Hope that helps someone.
