Luckily for me, when this happened I still had SSH on, so I was able to remove the launch daemon and restart the phone from my Mac terminal. It was a bit scary though-- if SSH had been off I probably would have had to restore to get out of that. Does anyone know of a way to cause the daemon to automatically unload if the phone is restarted?

Good news in that the problems are separate, bad news in that there are fewer eyes looking at the problem. ;-) Ah thanks Erica - I suspected as much upon reading but it was 1am locally and I didn’t validate it.

This worked for a project I'm working on. Greg Hi Erica,

Did you try matching the CFBundleExecutable and the CFBundleIdentifier (i.e. enter autosnap for both)? This worked for a project I’m working on.
