Get Panorama Camera Mode Without Jailbreak On iPhone 4S

You may remember last week that we reported that you can use the panorama camera function built into iOS 5 using a Cydia tweak called Firebreak. Well we have great new today. You can now enable the native panorama camera mode on the iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPad 2 and iPod touch running iOS 5 without having to jailbreak your device.

If you are using iOS 5 and you want to perform a hack without having to jailbreak your device, you can now enable the hidden native panorama option for your iOS 5 camera. This hack is very simple and below are the steps you need to perform. This hack will work on any gyroscope capable device including the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.

Step 1: The first thing you have to do is backup your device�s data using iTunes. This is not the usual precautionary measure that you hear of; you actually need to modify this backup in order to perform the hack.

Step 2: Next download the iBackupBot from www.icopybot.com which is compatible with both Windows and Mac. Once the download is complete just install and launch it.

Step 3: Locate you com.apple.mobileslideshow.plist file. Double click the file which will take you to the editing page.

Step 4: Directly below DiskSpaceWasLow , add EnableFirebreak then hit the disk icon to save.

Step 5: Restore your backup via iTunes and the process is now complete. Launch the camera app and then navigate to the options and click on panorama to start taking pictures in panorama mode.

We have tested this and yes it does work really well. If you don�t like the idea of editing your .plist files, you can always download Panoram 360 via the App Store which will work with a similar effect.
