iphone provisioning hell

After googling and trying every solution in excruciating detail none worked. I’m completely convinced the error was related to rebuilding the app with the same name. The first version was already provisioned and running without problem on my phone, if this isn’t your problem then this won’t work for you. But if it is then try it, it worked for me.

Take your .xcodeproj, .pch, main.m, class and .xib files (note not the build directory, not that I’m sure that matters) and dump them in the directory of the provisioned app, Build > Clean All Targets and poof…. it worked.

Here are some of the urls that I tried:
