How To Create a Cydia Repository

What is Repository (Repo) :

A way of a developer distributing apps through installer/cydia. For example: Once you(a Dev) makes a repo you put your apps in it then can distribute the link of the repo to others so they can install your apps via installer.

What you will need to start a Repo :

  • A computer running a Linux Distro ( maybe latest version of Ubuntu.)
  • A website where you have FTP access to host the repo
  • Files that you will copy to two directories on your Linux machine . Get them from here
  • Any app or theme, because nobody wants an emtpy repo

SIMCITY FOR iPhone and iPod Touch ( .ipa )

Whatever you do, though, don’t go thinking this is SimCity Lite. This mobile version is fully featured, with pre-built cities, accountant recommendations, water pipes, natural disasters, etc. The works.

[Pinching] in as close as you can on the 2D sprites reveals intricate details, such a smoke emitting from towers, or shading alongside the buildings. Overall, a really nice graphical presentation that compares similarly to SimCity 3000.

Does the name iAlertU rings any bells? If it does, than you either are a lucky bastard who owns a macbook pro, either you are obsessed and dream of the day when you will buy a apple lappy. Anyway, thats a feature that you can add on you apple lappy. When activated it acts like a car alarm : when somebody touches your lappy the alarm goes on.

Pretty cool huh? Now you can have the exactly same thing on your iPhone. The app is called Motion Alarm and it was featured in the iTunes top 10 list.So , to sum this up , this is a ” back the fuck away from my iPhone ” app 😉
