I'm actually wondering if it'd be possible to get this to work over 3G without jailbreaking. Can somebody smarter than me tell me if this would work:
- Installing root CA.
- Setting up the proxy on ec2 instance.
- Setting up a custom DNS server on that instance, to override the Siri domain.
- Setting up the iPhone to use that DNS server, or if not possible, setting it up to use a VPN and through the custom DNS.
And the end result is a Siri that always works and that you can use to run code on an ec2 instance. You'd be able to hook it up to third parties APIs, like Twitter or Facebook.
- yusefnapora 15y agoI've been trying to figure this out too... I think the VPN is the only way to get it working over 3g, as there's no way to override the DNS on the cell connection. Thanks for that idea, VPN hadn't occurred to me! I'm going to give it a shot; I'll report back if successful. Edit: Success! I'm not running it on EC2 yet, just my home network. Basically I've got dnsmasq on my router redirecting guzzoni.apple.com to my home fileserver with SiriProxy running. The router is also running a PPTP VPN server. I can use the VPN over 3g to make Siri requests and see the output on my local machine. Thanks again for the VPN idea; that's gold. Next step - to the cloud!
