Street View Working On Jailbroken iPod touch 1stGen

I got a Jailbroken iPod touch 1stGen with 2.2 firmware and surfing around xSellize i found a thread with some info about activating Street View on the iPod touch 1stGen. I tried the method and believe me, IT WORKS GREAT! Here's a little explanation of how-to & what it does:

1. Close iTunes if is open and SSH for this file: /System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/N45AP.plist
2. Go here N45AP.plist and download modified NP45AP file.
3. Backup the original, after that replace with modified version.
4. Close your SSH program and reboot iPod touch 1stGen


All new Maps features work however you get a "Searching For Service" (Replaces the word iPod in the top left corner) and "Waiting For Activation" message that pops up occassionally, just hit "Dismiss"

Hopefully someone can patch the frameworks or springboard which wouldnt require this to be done! Anyway if you're desperate to try it out, thats all that needs to be done theres nothing wrong with stability or anything so you're not going break anything trying this out.

Enjoy
