xCon is a collaborative project by n00neimp0rtant and Lunatik that aims to be an all-in-one solution for hooking every known method and function responsible for informing an application of a jailbroken device. At first, the project aimed to patch applications on a per-app basis, but now it uses lower-level hooks to cover any apps that attempt to use the same procedure, even patching apps not explicitly reversed by the developers. Originally an open-source project, it remains closed-source now to discourage App Store developers from working around xCon's hooks.
xCon is available free of charge in Cydia. No configuration is needed; just install and go.
For general infos, see Bypassing Jailbreak Detection.
App Patching Status
You can find an app's current release version in its iTunes listing page, linked below in the app names. If an app's current release version is newer than the "Last Confirmed Working Version," please help by testing it out yourself with the latest release of xCon and updating the table as necessary.
ATTENTION: If you are going to edit this chart, do NOT just put a question mark for or leave blank the Bundle Identifier. You can find the bundle ID of any app by looking in its Info.plist file. This saves the devs both time and effort, and it also helps the devs filter patches on a per-app basis, making your phone or iPad run faster and more stable.
