Fix Cydia Crashing Dec. 28

December 28, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

There is a problem with a particular source this morning. Signs point to it being Zodttd’s repo sending data that Cydia has a problem with. This causes Cydia to go into a crashing loop.

You should NOT need to restore your firmware to fix this problem. Please have patience, a fix is being worked on. If the coming solutions do not help there is still the possibility that a restore may be needed.
Update #1: Some good advice and instructions in the comments below. You can also try the FIXES AND SUGGESTIONS HERE, as the problem is the same as it was then. You must remove the zodttd source list that is causing the problem.

Update #2: A quick fix for some (works only if you have apt7 installed)

  • Log-in as root using MobileTerminal or SSH and run this command:
  • apt-get update
  • This will update your lists and then Cydia should work.

NES Emulator Removed From The Appstore

December 22, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

TUAW loves our iPhones and we love our NES games. We’ve been convinced for some time now they are two great tastes that would no doubt taste great together. Tonight I settled in to write a post about how exciting it was that you could play old school public-domain and freeware Nintendo games on your iPhone now, thanks to Jonathan Zdziarski and Nescaline, the app he built to do just that. Ah, Kid Icarus and Ninja Gaiden and Zelda and Mario, all my old friends back again (if I had legal licenses to the ROM images, of course). I was excited to relive my pixelated past, but it was not to be. Jason updated his site this evening saying Nescaline had been pulled: Read more…

Appsidy New Cydia Store Payment Method and Sauriks Thoughts On It

December 21, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

As the iPhone becomes more and more popular to the world there is no doubt that jailbreaking the iphone has also gotten very popular. As a matter of fact jailbreaking the iphone has gotten so popular it has been featured on many reputable websites such as cnet.com, tuaw.com, and the list goes on. My point is that jailbreaking the iphone is allowing us the users to be able to do more than we could have imagined whether it be making our iphone a wireless router, to allowing us to make voip calls using skype and 3g unrestrictor.

Now that you know where jailbreaking the iphone is going we can speak of cydia and the business aspect of jailbreaking. For you the user jailbreaking is to get all of the goods but for developers it is like a gold mine with a lot of revenue potential. A year ago you had to purchase an application from cydia by downloading an app and paying the developer however he wanted you to pay whether it was through paypal or some other payment type.

CallRecording: First Application To Record Outgoing Calls On The iPhone

September 07, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

CallRecording is the first application available in Cydia that allows you to record your outgoing calls from your iPhone. Let it be known that the operation is illegal in some countries that do not protect our privacy and that currently only works for many Israelis. We see the operation in detail below:

IMG_0255 IMG_0256 IMG_0255

we just insert the code and the phone number that we intend to call. Immediately after the call starts with the normal screen, a native of Apple. Once we finished the conversation, we will have to wait a few minutes and receive an SMS containing a link that will take us directly to download the audio file on our call made.

To register, connecting to an international service for which the call will also cost more than normal. http://62.219.50.27/recsys As I said, privacy is not assured because all the recorded conversations are accessible by anyone through this link: http://62.219.50.27/recsys

In conclusion we suggest not to use even when the service will include the Italian numbers. CallRecording is available in Cydia via the BigBoss repository.
