Lion editor for iPhone?

Just an update for anyone who wants to do this. It can be done, but it is a bit of a hassle.

1) First you need a jail broken iPhone. This allows you to install the older version of the game (v.1.0.0) to your phone.
2) Then use iExplorer to copy the save file to your PC, change it name to lioneditor.bin and edit it with lion editor.  Change it's name back to FFTSAVE.bin and copy it back to your iPhone (using iExploer again)
3) open the game and minimize it.
4) delete the save file
5) maximize the game and save again.
6) update the game

All the edits will be there and your game will be current (HD graphics, no glitches or crashes).  The old version is really unreliable and looks really bad, making the update essential to enjoying the game. Step 4 and 5 makes me think the editor "corrupts" the save in same way. Hence the need to delete it and save again.  If you skip those two steps it will result in the same "no save file found" error. Not sure why but it does work. Hope this helps any iOS players.
