    How to Use

Open up Terminal.app in your /Applications/Utilities directory, then type in these commands, one after each other:


Create a temporary directory for cycript:
mkdir cycript && cd cycript


Pull the latest cycript from cycript.org:
curl -L https://cydia.saurik.com/api/latest/3 -o cycript.zip


Unzip cycript:
unzip cycript.zip


Download fix_growlvoice.js:
curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/kroo/11205755/raw/fix_growlvoice.js -o fix_growlvoice.js


Start GrowlVoice now.
open -a GrowlVoice


A popup window should appear about malformed JSON.  Close it.


Ensure cycript is executable:
chmod +x ./cycript


Patch the running GrowlVoice process:
sudo ./cycript -p GrowlVoice fix_growlvoice.js


Each time you restart GrowlVoice, you will need to run this fix script again.  Run cd ~/cycript && sudo ./cycript -p GrowlVoice fix_growlvoice.js to run the script sometime later.

/**
 * A quick n' dirty hack to fix a dying GrowlVoice
 *
 * GrowlVoice is now officially dead: https://twitter.com/GrowlVoice/status/455931023868448768
 * However, Google didn't really shut off API access (there wasn't really any to begin with);
 * they slightly mangled a JSON object GrowlVoice was looking for on one of Google Voice's
 * internal pages.
 *
 * The following is a Cycript script that will bring a dead GrowlVoice back
 * to life for the moment (until Google decides to mangle things more).
 *
 * To use:
 *
 *  - Download cycript from cycript.org, and extract somewhere sane
 *  - download this script to the same place as cycript
 *  - Start GrowlVoice (it will complain about malformed JSON)
 *  - Run sudo ./cycript -p GrowlVoice fix_growlvoice.js
