With the iOS 5.1.1 Untethered Jailbreak being released recently in the form of Absinthe 2.0 there are nearly one million new Jailbroken iOS devices. I am sure one of the reasons why so many people Jailbroke their iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad was to get Siri functioning. Unfortunately the most popular methods of installing Siri on Jailbroken iOS devices, Spire is not compatible with the iOS 5.1.1 firmware.
For those who are still wanting to get Siri on their older generation iOS device then you will be glad to know there is an alternative. This alternative is called SiriPort and will allow you to get Siri functioning without the need of a proxy server. Meaning you can use Apple’s personal assistant, Siri on the iPhone 4 (GSM, CDMA), iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 4G, iPod Touch 3G and iPad 1G running the iOS 5.1.1 firmware without iPhone 4S activation keys.
SiriPort was recently updated to version 5.1.1-3 as well to support better connectivity and responsiveness. As such SiriPort really is one of your best options to get Siri fully functioning on older generation iOS devices. Thus, in this tutorial you will learn how to install SiriPort to your iPhone 4/3GS, iPod Touch 4G/3G or iPad 1G running the iOS 5.1.1 firmware.
Install SiriPort On iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad
WARNING: Ensure you back up your iOS device before following this how to guide. Although a lot of people have had success installing SiriPort it has been known to cause endless boot loops, which result in having to do a factory reset to your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. This actually happened to me when trying to install SiriPort on my iPhone 4 so proceed at your own discretion.
Step 1) – The first thing you will obviously need to do is Jailbreak your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad Untethered on the iOS 5.1.1 firmware. For those of you who would like a helping hand with this please click here.
Step 2) – Next you will need to add the official SiriPort repo. To do this launch Cydia, go into the Manage tab, followed by the sources section and then tap Edit > Add and type in the following repository shown in the quoted area below:
http://repo.siriport.ru
Step 3) – With the repository successfully added go into Cydia’s Search tab and search for:
SiriPort (original)
Step 4) – Once you see SiriPort (original) on the search results you will need to tap on it and install it to your iOS device. One thing to keep in mind before installing it however, is that it is a large package (nearly 100MB) so you will want to ensure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Step 5) – With SiriPort now installed on your iOS device you will need to launch Safari and go to the following URL:
Step 6) – After visiting the URL shown above you will need to download the certificate file, email it to yourself and then open the certificate and install it to your iOS device. Once the certificate has been installed you will need to reboot your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.
Step 7) – Now simply invoke Siri and say “Hi”. If Siri does not respond in a few minutes you will need to reboot and repeat this process until you get Siri to reply to you. Once Siri does reply to you it is working and you now have Siri functioning on your older generation iOS device running the iOS 5.1.1 firmware.
Note: SirPort is used by a lot of people and if you are not having any luck getting a response from Siri it could simply be because the SiriPort servers are overloaded.
If you followed all the steps correctly and met the requirements outlined previously you should have gotten Siri fully functioning on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad running the iOS 5.1.1 firmware. Please share your experience with SiriPort and any questions or further thoughts you may have in the comments section below.
does not work. after installing, when siri is enabled, it automatically disable itself.
not sure if i wanna do this yet… cause spire took up tons of memory and caused my ipod to crash alot… wonder if siriport is worth it…
its sorted now, I had to reboot my phone
Not worth the install. Servers are overloaded and boot looped my iPhone 4 CDMA.
tried this on my ipad 2 3G/WIFI and it froze after i rebooted, didnt get pass the apple logo. I had to restore in Itunes
good thing i brought a iPhone 4S instead of a regular iPhone 4
only way to get siri is buy a 4s
nope i have it working with a free tekwik server :) on a iphone 4, btw i didnt follow this tutorial i followed a diff one more complicated but worked like a charm, so there is a way to get it working, just need to google a lot
too much like hard work il wait for a 4s
i rebooted, said hello 3 times and now it works.
siriport was out before spire.
how do i dload cert ???
When i hold home button – open fuuuu Multitasking …
email the link to yourself click it. and then install
you just described to problems that dont tie in to each other. You most likely had a tweak that interfered with it. Servers are no were close to over loaded.
ok ty
OKey now siri talk … – I’m really sorry about this , but i can’t take any requests right now . Please try again in a little while .
What is it ? some repair ?

Thank you! working perfectly on iPhone 4
I followed the instructions and installed the certificate but siri just says “I’m really sorry about this, but I can’t help you right now.” Was anyone able to get theirs to work?
Say Hi Siri! anyway after installing it my Facebook and Netflix app stops working.
i dont know what i am doing wrong i did a fresh restore, jailbroke with redsn0w, installed rocky racoon 5.1.1 untether, added the source, installed, went to the certificate website and installed it, rebooted, and it doesnt work. i have tried rebooting like 4 times.
before this, i did everything without the untether, it didnt work either, so i restored and did what i just said.
Can anyone please help me?
I need a certificate also! tommyleemacias@ymail.com!!!
I removed the siriport off my cydia… Now it won’t go past the damn boot logo. Someone help me?? PLEASE
Hi. Is it possible to email me a cirtificate?
tylerwatson@me.com
thank you.
Installed fine on iphone 4 5.1.1. Buggy though my phone is real slow and some apps dont work now siri works good but will uninstall in a little while
Well it is available now. This is a proven working method.
LOL! The Russian malware masters are having a Phishing field day, Suckers!!
I said you guys before to use “Ac!d Siri” instead of “Spite 3.0.1” and now here we go again with something that consumes too much ram?
I had said earlier on various occasions to download Ac!d for iPhones & iPad from
“c y d i a . b a s s a m k a s s e m . c o m” or various other repo if you can find them
i was using this “r e p o . s i r i p o r t. r u” during feb-march, why are you posting outdated stuffs Jaden? this repo siri still has issues and isn’t functioning properly compared to Ac1d which is still getting updated
w w w . a d d i c t i v e t i p s . c o m / m o b i l e / s i r i p o r t – g e t – s i r i – o n – o l d e r – i p h o n e – w i t h o u t – i p h o n e – 4 s – c e r t i f i c a t e s – c y d i a /
NOTE: spaces added in the links so it doesn’t needs to be moderated.
you can also use redsn0w tethered jailbreak and download spite for 5.1. afterwards download rocky raco0n untethered jailbreak package……
For all your jailbreaking needs head to Facebook ihacks all idevices
lols, they are having so much fun with these fools =/
works perfectly on my ipod touch 4g
Did u activated siri from settings?
has this stopped working for anyone ???
can you send me a certificate at cornytime@yahoo.com pleasee:)
This is taking forever and every time I say Hi I get try again later or something like that
i switched siri off then on and from yesterday it is not working !
awesome Siri responded on the first try
does any1 have issue of email not working ??
do ur emails open when u installed siri
ive sent u cert m8
It is not working if you do a fresh install of siriport(Original) 5.1.1-3 but it is working if you upgraded from 5.1.1-2. Here’s my theory … Based on the error message on the info screen for 5.1.1-3 the new siriport (Original) got installed in the wrong place, / User. On new installs this is causing siriport to not work. If you had installed 5.1.1-2 previously you still have that old install in the right place and 5.1.1-3 is still using those files. That’s why people who upgraded from -2 are working and those of us who had to do a fresh install of -3 are not working. Is there a fix in the works?
Working.. Cheers..
url comes up as a text no file to download
I have jb iPad 3 (wifi) an I have rebooted an updated the certificate idk how many times now I have never received a response an it’s been a few hours now still nothing… I’m starting to think it isn’t worth the headache just remove what I’ve downloaded to get Siri an try again when things are so congested…. :( I didn’t use spire since I have 5.1
I got sorry cant help messages from Siri but I got it to work first try by doing this What I did to get Siri working is I followed all the steps then after the reboot Siri still kept giving the sorry I can’t help u response so I downloaded iFile from cydia and in iFile I went to var/mobile/library/preferences and located the files named com.apple.assistant.plist and com.apple.assistant.plist.bak and deleted them no respring/reboot and then tried Siri again and it worked first try and has been working since and if it does stop working all you have to do is delete those two files again because sometimes they reappear hope this helps it worked for me
yes. it was working. on time off then on caused it to stop working again sense yesterday!
i opened the link provided, and the cert requested me to install
and now Siri only saying she’s sorry !
hey this is best siri I ever had it work`s!!! But you have to reboot after you install
siriport and after the certificat again! it will work! I just did that an she respond after first time:)
And one more thing international locations from cydia do not install it not work on that siri
Neither do I and I activated it in settings
I’ve rebooted at least 20 times, not kidding. I’ve reinstalled both siriport and the cert at least 5 times each. I’ve even done a complete restore and re-jailbreak then reinstalled just siriport and the cert and it didn’t work so don’t tell me all you have to do is reboot and it will work.
Can you also email me the certificate it’s feliia82181@aol.com I have it installed on my iPad but still nothing :(
when i click install it finishes so fast idk if it really installed it help? what to do i dont get send an email to yourself i open it on desktop only text help please
I am having same problem I am using iPad 3 I gave up all I have done is reboot my iPad I have even deleted the file in ifile no luck nothing…. I think there is something about having a different version for iPad 3 not sure but that’s all I can think of I’ve done everything right an not a change

got siriport on my ipad 3, after getting it installed and the certificate dl and installed, i can’t get siri to show up. doesn’t appear in my settings. went to check back if it was installed and it was although there was a section that had a triangle exclamation point “installed to /User”
Shit…i say hi but Siri not answer i reboot 3 times but Siri just Say; There is something wrong
I have it working fine on my iPhone 4, but i have been trying it for a day on my 3GS and it won’t work.
same on my ipad 2:(
try another laptop i had same prob used another pc worked fine
i did still dont work
Its obvious you two have no idea what you are talking about. Piss off Noobs
How do you email it to yourself?
i did this tomy ipad 3 too. After alot of reading i find out it is now supported on ipad 3.
Saw postings NOT too install or you will experience reboot loop.
Soon as I removed got apple logo reboot loop and had to restore. As of this writing there is no Siri for iPad 3 yet so be warned
I got this to work once yesterday, but today its not working. There needs to be a way to use other siri servers certificates. Their servers just can’t handle the load.
Same prob here
does it work on ipod 3g?.
not working on ipad2 on 5.1.1 ios. i do all steps correctly. but not show siri.plz help me..
anyone found a fix to why siri only says try again later?
i need help with this too, is it just because the servers are overloaded?
I’d really appreciate if u send me one too, fakharzk@hotmail.com
So I got this installed….got it enabled and I still get Siri saying the I am really sorry about this. I have rebooted quite a few times already. If anyone can help me get passed this that has gotten it to work, email me and let me know how to get it working. I have an Iphone 4. My email is rayne6669@att.net
I’ve been having the problem of when I say “Hi Siri.”, She’s been replying with messages such as
“I’m sorry, but I can’t take any requests right now”.
As i know that mostly everyone gets these messages after download of Siri, and patience is what fixes this problem(5 minutes to 6+ hours), my impatient self decided to try turning Siri off and rebooting, and that caused my iPod to get stuck in an infinite rebooting loop. But instead of doing a factory restore and resetting my iPod, i put it in DFU mode and booted it from Redsn0w, and that worked and rebooted my iPod normally and i have fixed the rebooting loop.
I’m pretty sure it’s because the servers are overloaded, but on the ModMyi forums for Siriport, it says that patience is the key.
(It could take 5 minutes to 6+ hours)
It’s a slow process but it’s what works!
Hope it helped :)
I tried this so Many Times And couldn’t Get It to Work i tried all the Ports Restored My devices Then went Back To this and tried it again then it said greetings, james
Edit from earlier. It does work. Just have to have patience.
can u temme how to invoke siri
/Which iOS are you using?
Did anyones iPhone 4 freeze on the apple logo?
Same happened with me last week, you’ll need to restore & rejailbreak
Mine is working perfect!! thanks!!!
Keep rebooting
That has no effect. I still have the “I’m really sorry…” message. I should have never upgraded to iOS 5.1.1.
tried the above method…but Siri keeps on saying..there’s something wrong and I cant answer your questions right now. please try again in a little while.
Any help
try until you getting reply it will take 6 hour to 28 hours
works perfectly on iphone 4 verizon
i followed all these steps and got siri working but then she stopped responding. then a day later, she started working again for another day then stopped working. now i just have siri saying she can’t help me for the past two days. i’m just hoping she’ll start working eventually again.
Hey thanks man works perfectly after 6 hours
yeah any free proxy will either get full fast or experience downtime, I would install Ac!d Siri (free) instead and get a good paid proxy, or choose from whatever free proxy you want to use. when one goes down, jump to another
How do you invoke Siri, there is nothing in settings. And it doesnt respond when i press the home button for 5 seconds. Please help
how long does it take to download the package. using a wifi
how come??? :P
ok. thanks!
Guys it works. Fallow all of these instructions exactly. It took my Siri 8 hours to finally respond but ever time you think about it just hold down the button and say “hi Siri” and from my expearence it will keep saying it wasn’t working then after 8 hours it finally responds. Don’t give up just keep waiting
settings/general/international/Voice-control/ select appropriate Siri territory.
I dont see a voice control, is it bedause this is not compatible with the ipad 2 WiFi version? If so, is there an alternative?
It didn’t work at first and it kept giving me that I’m sorry message. I rebooted the phone and I got stuck on the circular load up screen so I rebooted the phone again and it still didn’t work. Rebooted again and I let the circular load up screen finish. After that I waited for about 4 hours and it works fine even with the voice text it works great!! Thanks!!
What, so every time you reboot, do you have to redo EVERY step or just test Siri?
just to let all impatient people Know if you wait like couple days or even a week it will work just give it time !
It worked for me on my ipod touch 4g
You just need to keep talking to siri every 30 minutes (like 10 times every 30min)
The results are worth it!
I install siri on my iPhone follow these step but not work. When “hi” siri said “I’m really sorry about this, but I can’t take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while.
i kept trying for twenty minutes guys and siri works very well. am in kenya with a jailbroken iphone 4 unlocked using sams method.
hey guys it works. am in kenya iphone 4 4.11.8 unlocked using back-up sam tickets jailbroken with absinthe and siri is working great after twenty four minutes repeated trail.
mine still says im unable to answwere requests right now
Press the mic button and say, “Hi”. If no response in 10 sec stop the cycle by pressing the button again, then press the button again and say “Hi”. Keep doing this over and over. Reboot every 15 minutes or so.
It took about an hour of constantly spamming before Siri said “Hello”.
I just started trying and hopefully it works within this week. Do you guys recommend to rebbot the device often or just respring? Also how many times should i try in a “single session”?? thanks
I would suggest restoring to original 5.1.1 firmware and using Absynth to JB ;)
dont download its starts boot cycle
yea i did ipad 2 jus put to dfu and restore
OK I can say this program freezed my iPhone countless of times and made me lose lots of information but after like 5 resets i finally got it to work all you need is patience
i got mine working for now, so i was wondering if it will be ok like forever and i can use it whenever i have internet connection tnx
working thanks :)
I have rebooted mine 3 times and when I say “hi” nothing happens and I have an iPad 2 so when I go to settings it doesn’t say Siri anywhere, can someone help me?
doesn’t work…
I can’t even get my iPod to open up the page to download the certificate. Any suggestions?
I have waited over 24hours now… only thing it says is “I’m really sorry about this, but I can’t take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while.” I have repeated the process perfectly. Im on an iPhone 4, 5.1.1. Any ideas?

just installed (properly), still waiting to connect to SIRI, will update when (and if) that happens.
Ended up getting stuck on my reboot screen after step 6.
it says that the certificate link is not on the server. is that also because of server overload?
i have an iPhone 4 with 5.1.1 unteathered jailbreak. i am not able to add the source, it is giving me the error – “Did not find Repository. this is because you are trying to add a legacy installer repository. Also, this interface is only capable of working with exact repository URL’s.” Please help.
Cydia won’t let me enter the repo. It either says bad URL or verification timed out. HELP
siri not working :(
I’m really sorry about this, but I can’t take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while.
it is not allowing me to add the repo
Mine not working I tries to say ‘hi’ many times. Running on iOS 5.1.1. Keep on coming out this error saying I’m really sorry about this…. Please try again in a bit… So how??
Before I installed siriPort (original) I looked at what it says for the discription and it says 5.1.1-1 not 5.1.1-3
It keeps saying that the URL is not valid
same here :(
same here :(
its working nice in my iphone 4 5.1.1 thanks
After searching for “Siriport (Original)” it won’t let me download it, the download starts and then pops up two immediate errors. ‘404 Not Found, Retun to Cydia” Anyone else?

I installed siri with no problem and then it froze bad after 3 days… I had no choice but call AppleCare to restore my phone.

After installing the certificate, i rebooted & im stuck in the apple logo…. please help. iphone 4 ios 5.1.1
I manage to add the repo, but while reading comments from other users, I notice, none says its working. Can someone confirm, they hv it installed on iPhone 4 and using it successfully?

*** EASY ***HOW TO GET OUT OF BOOT LOOP*** EASY ***
I’m surprised no has posted this solution to the problem, however, it works and it’s fairly easy. Don’t worry, your phone will be fine. :)
Here’s my story. Jailbroke my iphone 4s (iOs 5.1.1). Downloaded siri spire proxy and my iphone crashed. The apple logo would appear, then the spinning graphic, then the apple logo, black screen, repeatedly. I’ve downloaded and modded countless apps from cydia, so I am fairly familiar with properly downloading and installing specific apps that work for my iPhone. It just happened to slip my mind to double check the system requirements, moral of the story: double and triple check system requirements before downloading cydia apps. Corrupt files will crash your iPhone and it will be worthless. However, i’m not going to tell anyone not to jailbreak their iPhone. My iPhone crashed, spend hours researching a solution, restored it, then i jailbroke it again. I’ll be more carefule next time. Anyway, on with the solution:
I googled anything that could come to mind on how to fix the issue aka my iphone was as useful as a brick. After 2.5 hours of putting my phone in and out of DFU Mode, downloading programs that others suggested, and countless iTunes error messages that my phone could not be restored, period. I stumbled upon my old redsn0w download, and it clicked in my head, redsn0w (and possibly other jailbreak programs might have this feature, but i’m just familiar with the functions of redsn0w) allows users to manually restore iPhone Firmware downloaded from the internet. BINGO!!!
***STEP SEVEN: IF YOU DID AN ITUNES BACKUP WHILE THE CORRUPT CYDIA APP WAS DOWNLOADED ON YOUR IPHONE, DO NOT RESTORE (i will explain how to do restore from a clean back up below, very easy) FROM THAT BACKUP. YOUR IPHONE WILL CRASH AGAIN AND YOU WILL NEED TO REPEAT THE FOLLOWING STEPS***
If you have any questions after looking over the steps, feel free to message me. If i can, i can try to help you individually if you would like. I am in no way an expert when it comes to jailbreaking and i am by no means an experienced programmer/hacker/developer/etc. I just knew there had to be a way to do this. I could have downloaded the wrong firmware (thankfully i didnt!) who knows what would have happened then. Make sure you download the correct redsn0w and the correct firmware, everything else is a walk in the park.
Downloads Needed:
-Recboot 2.2 (*you may or may not need it* google it, you’ll find it somewhere, i couldn’t recall name of the site. my apologies.)
-redsn0w 0.9.12b1 (iPhone 4s/iOs 5.1.1, other phones/firmware require other redsn0w versions to be compatible with your iPhone)
-iOs Firmware (google “ios 5.1.1 firmware” and you should be able to find a link where it will lead you to the download link)
You will only need Recboot 2.2 if you cannot put it into DFU or Recovery Mode. This program will do it for you. I am not sure if your phone needs to be in DFU or Recovery Mode, but what i did for redsn0w to catch connection to my iPhone is: i used recboot to put it into recovery mode (the next part is trial and error, if it caught connection i could initiate restore..if not keep playing with it), then held the home+power button for 10 sec, then just power for 10 sec, then power+home for 10 sec. just play around with it, it will eventually catch connection to your iphone and work.
Step One: open redsn0w
Step Two: click “extras” , then
Step Three: click “even more”,
Step Four: then click “restore”.
Step Five: find where the firmware file was downloaded and click “open”
Step Six: then click “remote”, it’ll restore your iphone to factory settings just like itunes would.
***Step Seven:*** Open iTunes, if you have an iTunes backup that did not take place with the corrupted file that caused the crash, you can now restore it using that backup. I was unable to restore using an iTunes backup, however, my iCloud backup from 2 weeks ago did not have the file and successfully restored after going through the inital iPhone activation steps.
how did u do that? i’ve been talking to it for an hour now and it’s still saying “I’m sorry…”
same here. has it worked now?
Fantastic worked a treat thanks man .first time aswell .

Installed successfully!! But guess the server is a bit too busy for request at the mo. will try using it again in sometime. Thank you..
Something went wrong while downloading SiriPort. I cant use Siri, but the it still takes memoryspace. Where can i delete the files, which are now unnecessary taking space?
worked perfectly after 12 hours..nice job hackers
Completely installed, however, the result is “i’m sorry about this, but I can’t take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while. iPhone 4 OS 5.1.1 Jailbrokend.

dont emial it to yourself – just type that in to safari on your iphone, itl redirect you to settings, then press install bla bla bla
i had it a couple months ago but got rid of it when i rejailbroke, now still not working
It does not work on my Sprint Iphone 4 :(
I searched the siriport(original) but i say conflict to ipad ???
sadly mine does too
do i have to be on ios 5.1.1
Make sure you have Siri turned on. Settings>General>Siri
I had the same problem in iOS 5.0.1 Just be patient. took 1 and a half days for mine to finally work. Just be patient.
iOS 5.0.1 and 5.1 has Siri also from siriport.
Is your sound even on? Reinstall siri?
This works great. I recommend saying “Hi” just as it says here. Wait, it will time out. Reboot, and try again. After a few times, it works. I have never done any mods to my phone and this was a snap
I am getting a 404 when trying to download SiriPort (Original) from Cydia.
Has it been removed ?
2 Ways To Get Siri To Work:
1) Spam The Sir Button Repeatably Very Fast For A Few Minutes Then Try
Repeat Until it Works
2) Speak To Siri, Wait For Sorry But…, Reboot, Try Again
Repeat Until it Works
This is very simple after you install the certificate and SIRIPORT, all you have to do is say “hello” wait every time for siri to reply back “i’m unable to assist..” do that 5 to 6 times then reboot. I had to do that cycle for 12 times. If we can do simple math thats 72 times. It is very, very boring but i’m using siri now for all she’s worth..woo hoo…lol
installed it last night had connection problem etc… this mornig siri works like a charm… THANKS
Flawless, thank you for the detailed instructions. Perfect install and had it up and running in 15 minutes after the whole thing was said and done. Love having siri on my 4.
I tried installing with cydia but was not working… Too many connection errors… Eventually downloaded the debian and installed via iFile.
Siri is not installed, but stuck at “Unable to answer requests”… Still trying…
I do not understand step four when you say download the certificate and email to myself but I am unable to do this I can install it directly but can’t email it plz help
I meant step 6
urm, stupid question, i go to the link, no download, just loads fo text, should i just send that in an email?
finaly a siriport that works
After typing in certificate address in browser I didn’t have
To email it to myself. Automatically went to install page.I Installed
Switched on Siri in settings, rebooted phone. Voila. Although she still
Says cant help right now ask later. But she’s here.
i had a question how long is the certificate valid once Siri works.. does it expire or it will work till we use.? please let me know
Certificate expires June 1, 2015 (atleast the one I got installed in my 3GS)
Eventually got it working on my 3GS :)
I followed the process listed above and then had to catch a key to get it working… Google for videos on that.
Works Amazing :D .. Gr8 Work !!! Installed it on my iPhone 4 & iPod 4G
having some trouble with step 5. i have entered the URL and gone to follow, but it then comes up with a notification saying “safari could not download a profile due to an unexpected error.”… any help??

how do i start up siri after i download it on my ipod
I turn siri on and it turns itself off. help please
I just got Siri to work on my iPhone 4. Thanks!!!!
it works!!
It worked for me after 15 minutes. However, some of the apps started to crash; and every time I edit a picture on Photos, the device reboots itself. I guess I have uninstall this and to go back to Sara instead. NobitaZZZ provides support to those who are having problems too.
when i try to download siripot(original) it keeps saying error how do i get it to download
ive been able to get it working on the iphone 4 after asking (or saying hi) 6 times, rebooting, saying hi 6 more times and finally rebooted the final time then said hi two more times, siri replied “greetings!”

Works GREAT on my 3gs, thanks!!!
Will it automatically update if Apple update Siri (Adding new languages, accents, etc…)?
Instead of siri, it’s loading the voice memo for me :(
What should I do? I followed all steps, and it suppose to be working fine…
Re: Step 6: How do I install the certificate from the mail opend to my iO device?? What’s the proceedure to fopllow?
does it works on iphone 3gs 16 gb???
THis siriport is a waste of time. Some pple say it works others said in doesn’t. And so i thought maybe mine is one of those that’ll work. So i’m activating siri right… after rebooting i get stuck in the loop of apple logo reboot. Tried all methods to get out but nothing worked. Restoring on itunes was a problem too, kept getting all kinds of errors, i have iphone 4. what finally worked immediately was deleting all old IOS firmwares and old Redsn0ws. i just restored, now going on to jailbreak. Stay away from these unsupported fake ass SIRI.
When I go to the website, I’m not able to email any certificate to myself. The only thing it allows me to do is install it from there. Help?
THAAAANX A LOT FOR THOSE VALUABLE TIPS……….i am knowing about jailbreaking from here and i did it 4 the first try. I got Siri and works very well…..
Wow! I love the work you hackers do! You guys are some true app icons!
cant stop wont stop………..It worked for me……Now figure out how to turn my 16 gig iphone to a 64 gig iphone!
why my siri cannot turn on??
Hay, i had followed the steps you mentioned, but after i add the http:// file. I am not able to install Siriport (original). After few seconds an error occurse as follows:
POSIX: Connection reset by peer
So i am unable to install Siriport (Original). Please help me. What should i do? I am using iphone 3gs with 5.1.1 firmware.
activated in settings, but siri does not remain activated. Any suggestions?
Pogo, Im having the same problem, but that version of redsnow wont restore my phone bc its an A4 device any suggestions?
Iphone 4 – Tmobile
5.1.1
BB 4.10.1
Stuck in apple logo loop AFTER uninstalling siri port via cydia….
Things I’ve tried to no avail
Redsnow 0.9.14b2
– boot tethered
– rejailbraking
Itunes
– restore with custom IPSW (to preserve my baseband)
everytime resulting in error messages
(Tried the “edit host file” trick nothing also)
Can you help
siri wont even come up when i hold down the home button. just voice control
im on ipod touch 4g
dont know about upto 20 times… I must have tried 60n times and rising, still no luck at all
it won’t let me instal
On my 3GS my free memory (RAM) went down from 100-120MB to about 40-60MB after a clean boot so I took it off, I can’t manage with such little memory :(
Once you say Hi let it load for a little and then keep trying she will get it. You don’t have to reboot after the first two times.
it worked for me but my email application stopped working. I rebooted but it did not fix it. I uninstalled the siriport from cydia and my email is working again. Anyone knows how to fix it?
are there any other servers you can use like spire?
After several hours, I finally got Siri running, but not working. She is very slow to react, and is still not responding. Am I to expect she will speed up when she is working? I am continually saying “Hi” to her. She is still saying there’s something wrong and she can’t answer me right now. I realize this forum is old, but any help would be very much appreciated.
Same problem for me too :(
it took me 8 hours but it could take up to 24
spot on..had it up and running in a couple of minutes..should say its best to install International location pack if you want to do local amenity search in UK or siri wont be able to find pizza shops etc..
on my iphone 3gs the siri doesn’t reply what can i do ?
Work very fine on my iPhone 4. In my case, I disabled WiFi ad used 3G for STEP 7.
Thank you.
To get away the “im sorry I can’t…” error just ask it
2+2 then what’s weather like and it will work:)
samething to me
i just kept hammering it with requests until it started working and now it works fine
omg You are great dude…i did what you say and it worked 100% wow awesome!
Would Cydia add-ons that work for legitimate versions of Siri (on the 4S) also work on this port?
Can you use addons that would work on a legit version of Siri on this port?
why cant u guys use ac!d for siri and the three little pigs proxy server……….. it works perfectly 4 my iphone 4 5.1.1
OMG!! Just installed it and Siri responded after 20-25 mins…
This is fantastic!
Thanks ALL!!
@Jadan
Ok, so I followed the steps and everything went well until the last step. I rebooted like you said to in your instructions and of course happened to be one of the victims of the never ending boot screen.. so restored it back to normal settings and then did a restore from a back up. My iPhone 4 is now back to normal with my apps, messages, etc. minus the jailbreak. When you received the endless bootscreen and all that, did you restore your phone and retry these steps again to get Siri? Or do you not have it and said to hell with it?
I followed the jailbreak steps and checked “install Cydia” but now I can’t find Cydia to launch it. Where can I find it? it’s not on my phone
Wow, that actually worked. After getting the “sorry I can’t help you right now”. Thanks!
three little pigs got shut down by apple. try visiting the TLP site and they will tell the whole story
it works!!!
Installed on my son’s ipod 4g touch, followed tut to the letter, siri came up with sorry i can’t……. error so i tried approx 20 times including pressing the home button back to main screen on few occassions and after approx 20 he said hello, so goign to do my other son’s ipod 4g.
Thanks for excellent tutorial
Only downside is only can search for buisness, maps etc in us only.
Is there a way to get him to search in uk?
This really did work. I said “hi” and siri gave me the “i’m sorry” answer. I then asked “2+2” and it said another “i’m sorry” response, i then asked “what’s the weather like”, siri gave me another “i’m sorry” answer. I then said hi one more time and siri said hello. It has worked like a dream ever since!!!!!! Thank you so much. I LOVE it!!!!!!!!
Great!!! It works!! Just some issues but fixed!!
works for me
Happy I ended up spamming Siri, ended up taking me about 10 minutes and now she’s running beautifully. Great work guys!

I installed the app. Once i proceeded to the next step, going to safari, safari begins to crash. Does anyone know what may be causing this?
iWorking as of 16/08/12 on iPod Touch 4G
1. hold home and lock button until a slider shows up
2. turn off device then turn it back on
Got it installed on the first try. At first, it told me it couldn’t take any request and things of that nature. However, after about 5-10mins, it was able to tell me the whether. Then I set some reminders. From time to time, it has hiccups, but what can I say? I have siri running on my 3GS, which is 3 years old. It cant get better than that. Thank you so much! Trust me, it really works!
will siriport reveal all my contacts to spam sites and junk emails??
Just installed it on my iPhone 4 iOS5.1.1..works like a charm! Just keep on asking siri any question after 2-4 “sorry” replies..say “Hi” to Siri again and Siri will respond “Hi”..that’s it! :D
Oh my gosh I love you! Thank you! This is by far the best/easiest tutorial ever and it works thanks again!
work on first time. no problem at all
I’m getting a message “Siri could not download required information from the server” then asks to retry any suggestions?
I did the same thing and it is now working for me too! I think it just takes a couple tries, i think it is just coincidence that these questions are working because that is what we are asking her each time. but either way it worked!!

Pls help me i tried 60times saying hello to siri..then suddenly it worked and after some successful attempts its again not responding. Please help me
i did not mail to me the certificate. it was installed automatically from the site. is that ok? Becouse i get no answer from siri :/
Worked for about 4 questions out of 100.
Ipod Touch 4th Gen.
I installed mine as stated above. But i couldnt mail myself the file as stated in step 5. However, when i visited the site, it automatically took me to cydia as a certificate file and all i had to do was just accept it. Rebooted my phone, and then enabled siri with “Raise To On” disabled. Asked what is 2+2, took some time to load and then repeated, “would like me to search the web for dupless do?” and from then on it’s working. A bit slow though, but nevertheless, worth it. Thank you author for the instruction and thank you so much developers all around the world for creating this. :)
Btw, i am using iPhone 4 JB with Absinthe 2.0.4
best of luck. :)
and its working on my 3GS..
Thanks..!!!
