Potions & Stamps Hack (Jailbroken Only, Sorry!)


Hey there!

I figure it’s about time for a new tutorial instead of personal updates!
I’ve been getting questions about how I have so many potions and stamps (9,006 and 9,247 respectively) so here’s my tutorial on how to do this. Unfortunately it’s only for jailbroken devices (sorry!).

You are going to need:
  • A jailbroken device
  • Cydia
  • Sinful iPhone Repo source (http://sinfuliphonerepo.com/)
  • iFile (from Sinful)
  • Pocket Frogs (of course!)
  • A couple of working fingers!

All right, here we go!

You’re going to want to add the sinful iphone repo source to your list on Cydia and download iFile (it’s free – if it’s not, you’re not downloading the right one; also it might be a “cracked” version).  

Go into Pocket Frogs and see what your next set is. Mine is “Summer Fruits.” 


Breed/buy all the frogs that you need.


Woo! Now this is where iFile comes in. The app is going to look like this:


Enter the app. It's accessing the files on your device and is where information from your apps is stored. You'll probably be in a weird looking folder (perhaps it's just a forward slash /). Find "var." If you're already in var, then you're ahead of the game!
From var find mobile. Then Applications, then you get to a list of folders that looks like a bunch of numbers and letters thrown together. The Pocket Frogs app folder is going to start out named "C8D7BF56-E4C2..."and is fairly long, as shown below. 



Click on that folder when you find it. There should be another couple folders that say "Documents," "Library," and "Pocket Frogs.app." Click on Pocket Frogs.app. You'll have to scroll for a long, long time, and everything is in alphabetical order, but we are looking for a file under the name of "patternTable.csv.txt." 


Click on it. Something like this should show up:


There's a book-looking icon in the bottom right hand corner - click it and bookmark this page. You're probably going to want to find it a little faster next time you use it.

So! Now we get to the fun part. You see a list of all the frog patterns and their levels. In the upper left corner, there's an "edit" button. In my case, I'm going to click edit and alter the levels of Frondis, Pulvillus, Insero, and Lunaris. The levels are the last number in the row after the comma following the pattern name. The highest level the game will recognize is 250 - don't go any higher than that or it'll make your game geek out. 



Once satisfied with changing the levels, press save and done. We're halfway there. Now, since the changes have to take effect, double click your home button and exit out of Pocket Frogs. Then open it back up (so that you see the Pocket Frogs logo and intro screen, thus resetting the game so the levels can change). See? Now that the levels have changed, the number of potions and stamps that I get have changed also. The relation is between how rare the frogs are and how many potions and stamps you deserve for your trouble of collecting this set.


Now redeem, and enjoy your potions and stamps! Also, at this point, if you're not going to give the set to anyone else, you can sell the frogs for an insane amount of money. This is also a good way to earn lots of money fast (which is another tutorial I have already done). 



One last thing: don't forget to go back into iFile and change the levels back to their normal numbers, or else it will be a pain to buy these frogs and you won't be able to breed them. You can also use iFile to change the levels to something lower. For instance, when I need to buy a bunch of high level frogs (or breed a bunch of them) I will first go into iFile and change the levels to 1, which makes them very cheap, very easy to tame, and thus very easy to breed. Then later I can go in and change the level to 250 and in effect multiply the monetary value by over 4,000 times. (You can earn around 235,000 coins per frog this way.) You also might have to play around with the date and time a little bit so that you don't have to wait for the frogs to mature, since the developers are getting smart about their users and the "hacks" we come up with.

Well, I think that's all. If you have any questions, I'm always available by email! I'd love to hear if this benefitted you (or if there's something wrong with this process, or even if you're a little confused!). I love feedback and I desperately want to make sure I'm clear with my tutorials, or else it's more confusing that it is helpful, and we don't want that!

Happy frogging, everyone, and happy October (almost)!

Frog Patterns

Hey all!

I now have at least one frog out of all the patterns, so now I just need to get cracking on finishing all those colors!

Requests are still open, as always! Shoot me an email with a list of frogs and your ID and I'll get them to you (:

Happy frogging!

I'm Back!


Hey guys!

Again, it's been a while since I last posted and in that span of time I've been fairly inactive. I apologize for that! But I'm back in action and trying to finish my froggydex (again) as well as catching up on all the sets that I've missed over the past few months. So far out of the new frogs I've gotten Templum, Papilio, and Skeletos up to 100%. 


Which means I've only gone from 54% to 57%, but hey, it's progress, slow and sure. (So I guess that means I gain one whole percent every time I complete a new pattern.)


Currently I'm working on getting my Pluma set ready for the process of completion (if you don't understand what I mean, see my blogpost about quickly filling up your froggydex). However, there are a few frogs that I still need to begin completing my entire dex:


Flecto
Figularis
Lunaris
Pictoris
Spira
Arcus
Fractus

I don't need them immediately and it doesn't matter what color combinations; I just need the patterns. One of each, just to get it started. If you could lend a hand like I've lent a hand to many of you, I'd greatly appreciate it. (:

Also, I've noticed that NimbleBit must have caught on to the simple time hack that many of us have discovered (Turning forward time to get the frogs to grow up quicker) and have countered it by making it so that when you go back to the original date, all of your frogs are babies in eggs. While this is smart on their part, there is still a loophole I've used to get around it. This new addition makes my time hack post obsolete, so I suppose I should update it before I get any angry emails claiming I lied to my fellow Pocket Froggers. I'll get right on that, guys. Sorry about that. 

Well, I guess that's it for me! Just wanted to update you and let you know I haven't died (:
Happy Frogging!

Vickerooni out

New Frogs!


Hey everyone! So I know it's been a long time since I've posted here (whoops!) so I apologize! I know this post is a little late anyway, but there are new frogs!! This is both exciting as well as frustrating for me since I thought I had finished my froggydex last January. So for them to add all these new frogs, I'm back down to 54%. Grrr. But oh well. Some of the new designs are really pretty and neat!

Anyway, I am a lot less active than I used to be due to some issues, but! I am still available to give out some of these new designs and levels! So just add me on Game Center (Vickerooni) and I shall get back to you with a new awesome frog (:

Happy frogging!
Over and out,
Vickerooni
