i4Siri – Introducing Public Servers

Introduction

Let us cut to the chase- We are proud to announce public availability for our replacement Siri server. Our developers have worked hard, and with months of data analysis, testing, and tweaking; We now have a stable product to be enjoyed by many thousand more people. Our numbers through this beta have been staggering, with over 2,000 participants, and more then 1,500,000 requests made you have proved to us the demand is there. The growth we expect is exponential, and we only ask that donations continue, as they are all that currently keep us a float.

With that, I am happy to say, we will NOT be removing any API access. Limitations will be enforced however. We will be releasing advanced profile management tools, so you can see your usage stats, favorite sayings, and other cool stuff. All of this helps us build a better i4Siri, and helps us give you a better experience.

We ask if you decide to repost or blog about this, give credit where credit is due, we rely on a few open-source projects, our own being a hybrid of the two most popular available: the siriServer by Eichhoernchen, and SiriProxy by plamoni. What we offer is a service, taking the management, development, and server support, then squishing it into something you no longer have to worry about.

We do all plugin development in house, and are currently building a wiki of how Siri works, and what commands do what. I hope to open source this.

With that, we are currently seeking out PHP developers, Python developers, and Ruby Developers.

    German doesn’t work :(
    Says it can, but it can’t.

  2. Jazzy_s_s says:

    thanks for the great work

  3. How does this work? I’ve installed Spire and installed the key from the link in the post but Siri doesn’t work, the microphone icon stays dark. Have I done something wrongly?

    • helpbot says:

      spire does not work on firmwares 5.1 or greater. i recommend using siriport to add a GUI, then use i4siri non-spire.

  4. Jameslfc19 says:

    Yeah, how does this work? You never exactly wrote any instructions?

  5. DayDay82335 says:

    1. Go into Spire and put this in for the server – https://superbeta.chickenkiller.com/
    2. Go to Safari and install certificate – http://www.mediafire.com/?u6d87nt0ofx7tqz
    3. Test Siri, it may not work the first time but keep trying, Good Luck!

  6. KyleIdso says:

    Will installing the new iOS 5.1 end up removing Siri from my itouch. I know you can get the apple software on your device now but will it remove all jail broken apps?

  7. Daniel says:

    Siri answers me but keeps asking me questions all the time. I uninstalled all assistant tweaks i had if they were unsupported but it continues.
    Do i have to reinstall spire or some other tweak ?

  8. DayDay82335 says:

    @Kyledso Yes updating will remove your jailbreak, so I would wait a while until there is an untethered jailbreak. For now stick with the firmware you’re on

    @Daniel What kind of questions is it asking you?

  9. LeonShmexy says:

    Whoahh.. this is great guys.. just one problem.. the link to the Certificate doesnt work :/

    • DayDay82335 says:

      If it doesn’t work on your Safari browser:

      1. Download from your computers web browser
      2. Open with note pad
      3. Copy the last part that says “——Begin Certificate——-” to “——-End Certificate—–”
      4. Go to your desktop & create a txt document
      5. Paste what you copied from the download and delete all the extra return spaces, it should be one continuous line of text
      6. Save file and change the file extension to .crt
      7. Finally email it to yourself and open it on your iPhones mail app and install

      • LeonShmexy says:

        Thats the thing.. i cant open it on my browser aswell :/ could you send me the .crt file yourself if you could be so amazing?

      • JB_UNIT24 says:

        can please help me ive installed spire and the certificate but when i open siri “spire not configured” i look in my settings and i need a proxy host
        what do i put in to get i4siri please help me

  10. Daniel says:

    @DayDay82335 If i say “hi siri”, siri says “hi there, what is your favorite movie” “what do look like” and all kinds of random qusetions.
    But now all of a sudden it seems to work just fine.

  11. CatterSergio says:

    It keeps answering: “nothing was found for your query”

    • Lux says:

      Mine does the same thing, idk y but it either says that, or i dont understand what you mean by: blah blah blah

  12. Sven says:

    whats about the german language?

  13. proteus1309 says:

  17. nickparmar says:

    Congratulations…and This post was well-worded, i think it put the lid on a few haters :P

    loving i4siri! :D

  18. Lane says:

    Siri keeps asking me creepy questions like Where are you right now? How old are you? and things like that every time I ask her to do something for me like remind me something. Will this go away or is there something that i can do?

  19. Aidan says:

    ahhhhhh someone please help me! ive installed spire and the certificate but when i open siri “spire jot configured” i look in my settings and i need a proxy host

  22. Willeyumwu says:

    I set up the proxy’s and installed the package. Siri is saying “there’s something wrong, and i can’t answer your questions right now. please try again later.” Is siri working fine for everyone? or i did something wrong?

  23. Lane says:

    when it tells me to try again later, i just hit the microphone again and talk. Last time it said something like “Let me go talk to my teacher,.” Like what the heck?

  24. Administrator says:

    if you are having trouble, try saying find NEAREST starbucks

    • JB_UNIT24 says:

      is it just must or are your severs very busy because i keep getting this message from i4siri I’m really sorry i can’t take any request right now”

  25. Lane says:

    i can’t wait until they can incorporate like messages and reminders into this.

  26. Jake says:

    i haveeverything working except there is no sounds happening, my ipad isn’t muted and i have tried reinstalling spire but no sounds are made and siri doesn’t speak, any help??

  27. itspappy says:

    i installed spire when it first came out. but i uninstalled it because it cause my 3g/data to not load.

    i then tried to reinstall it and I believe I have corrupted my spire install.
    I have uninstalled it from cydia.
    I have even tried installing it from ifile via a .deb file.

    i know it is over 100mb, but it just hangs preparing spire, for 2 hours (on a 15mb connection)

    do I have to do a full restore to get spire reloaded on my iphone4?

    i thought i saw something about yall compiling your own spire. is that possible to download?

    thanks for any suggestions/help

    I have minor problem, it does not work with 3G connection, it works only with wifi connection
    thanks a lot

  30. Edward says:

    Gee, I don’t understand about the premium servers… I was just using your server when I was able to USE WOLFRAM ALPHA! So, what is the point when I am using your free server and able to use FACEBOOK AND TWITTER! And if I’m lost, I could even go on the free server and FIND THE NEAREST MCDONALDS DUDE!

  32. proteus1309 says:

    i just disinstal spire and they start correctly again…

  33. bolo1981 says:

  36. Joe says:

    I have installed SPIRE previously for other SIRI hacks. Also installed SARA. Took them all off because certain app store apps (like my fitness pal) stopped loading. Today I installed SPIRE for this hack, and the apps again stopped working (again, tested my fitness pal and it just kicks me back to home screen and doesn’t load). So, perhaps a SPIRE problem. Thanks to you all for your work on this SIRI hack, but hopefully you can figure out why some legit apps stop working

  37. ChrisStorms says:

    Great work guys!! Can’t wait to try it out. You once stated that you would release a final GUI with final i4Siri release. Is this still in the works or should we just use Spire? I would prefer your GUI if it is faster. Thanks!!

  38. ramon12jm@gmail.com says:

    here’s a video on how to install it. it was made for beta testers but it might help

  39. Hey, it would be great if we could donate with a message. Because lots of us dont own a credit card or dont live on the US. SO. Can you work on something to those who can not donate by a credit card ?

  40. mhrgore says:

    It works fine on 3G connection. But, it is not working on gprs connection. Is this a problem with the server or with siri itself?

  41. Redft65 says:

    When will premium be available? Also, aloof add ons such as AssitantExtensions aren’t working. I was really looking foward to Siri, but really you guys have no commands at all! I really hope you guys improve ASAP, I need to impress my friends!

  42. Redft65 says:

    Also, how do I set up dictation? Is it supported yet?

    Do you really want Siri to run on your older iDevices… if Yes.. try the guide i posted… this is not a scam nor fake.. FYI… Siri is working just fine in my iP4 without any certain issue nor problem… I just want to share this working proxy server to all those SIRI fans out there who really wanting to run SIRI using SPIRE..

    Guide Here:
    1.) Install SPIRE [ I assume that you all know where & how to get SPIRE]
    2.) Your device will REBOOT right after it finish the installation
    [This is for you newbie's who wanting to have full guide]
    3.) Download this http://paradox-productions.net/files/certs/cerftificate.pem using your iPhone Safari and install.
    4.) Now go to >GENERAL>SPIRE> then type or Copy & Paste this in the Proxy Host url box > https://paradox-productions.net
    5.) Reboot / Respring your iDevice
    6.) Go to >GENERAL>SIRI> and TURN ON
    7.) Making a Request
    [This part is a bit hard though. But just have patience to run Siri until you get it working..]
    [In my part , This is what i did.. I say Hello / Hi or Hello Siri / Hi Siri ... SiriReplies.. Sorry blah..blah.. or the other statement problem... Then.. I close Siri... and wait... Afterwards i try it again by saying same... Then it
    it work.. until now so far i had never face any problem, Siri is fully functional without any certain issue..
    Unless the proxy server had issue which is you can
    check it here >>>http://paradox-productions.net/?page=server-status... ]
    [This is for all of you noob who keep on asking how to get siri working]

    Again this tutorial is not a scam or fake or whatever you want to call it.. Try it… It’s working 100%…

    • guy says:

      Why are you publishing this you motherfucker!!! This server is already overloaded and hardly works!! Because of dumbass people like you none of the spire proxy are working
      Why do you need people to see your comment and get the server even more overloaded and then it won’t work FOR ANYONE so everybody loses because of people like you don’t you have a god damn brain?? The server is slow an you’re getting more people to use it and make it even slower? THOUGHTLESS!!!

      • Vincent says:

        Letting people know about a donation based server is not going to do any harm. Don’t be mad at someone who is being nice enough to spread the word about another project. If nobody knew about the server, then nobody gets anything from it. Share the love, or get out. All these projects need our donations, hopefully more of us will donate.

  47. Dooolay says:

    Can’t install the certificate… Help? its says “Safari could not install a profile due to an unknown error.”

  48. msephantom says:

    Works great here :) maybe dictation & lag… but its awesome :)

  49. slizza786 says:

    Was working great yesterday until today when i try to get weather forecast for any location i get the message “sorry i cannot get the weather forecast for this location”…?

  50. Daniel says:

    “Public” Servers. This implies that private servers are possible, could you release the code for this, as the public server is quite crowded.

  51. i installed the i4siri repo and installed the certificate and it took a second but it worked! BUT i went to check my bank account and i couldn’t even get in the app… and come to find out i couldn’t access ANY of my apps… it acted like it would boot up….and kicked me off and returned me to my springboard… on all of my apps… any suggestions?

  52. Jonathan Salazar says:
