Messages For Mac Lets You Send Any File Format To iOS Devices [video]

A couple of days ago, Apple has released Messages for Mac in beta state. Messages for Mac will be included in OS X Mountain Lion this summer  and does everything iChat does, and so much more. For starters, it comes with iMessage. And just like iMessage in iOS, it lets you send unlimited messages to anyone on a Mac or an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch running iOS 5. Send photos, videos, documents, and contacts — even send messages to a group.

But that’s not all that it does. The beta version also allows you to send any file formats to your iOS devices including .mp3, .pdf, .txt, .sh, .deb, .ipa, .exe, .app, .rar, .tar, .7z, and .zip.

iOSOpenDev Available For Download. Use Xcode To Develop Cydia Packages

The iOSOpenDev project has arrived. iOSOpenDev comes with Xcode templates for creating common types of jailbreak tweaks, including Activator listeners, command line tools, dynamic libraries, Notification Center widgets, SBSettings toggles, Siri AssistantExtensions and Mobile Substrate tweaks. It will even build .deb files of the completed projects for when a developer wants to submit to Cydia for publication.

The only problem is that this first release is still in alpha stage, and ( even the dev says so ) expect a lot of bugs. We can’t even install it. ( Sometimes you need to restart your Mac and everything will work just right ) Still, this is a great project which will allow ( mostly ) newbie devs to materialize great ideas ( hopefully ). Use it wisely…

For more info and download links to iOSOpenDev check out the official website

NOTE:

  • May need to manually install MacPorts – we already had MacPorts installed, still failed.
  • if headers are being dumped than that’ll add 5-10 minutes to the installer.
  • if install fails, run `port selfupdate` then `port -f install dpkg` in Terminal then try again. looks like MacPorts is the problem for most

Backgrounder and MultiIconMover Betas Released With iOS 4.2.1 Support

This is not an official release, and you won’t find them in Cydia. Note that both betas are untested, and meant for bug reports.

ashikase, the dev of Backgrounder and MultiIconMover has released a beta version for both tweaks with support for iOS 4.2.1. This is not an official release, and you won’t find them in Cydia. Note that both betas are untested, and meant for bug reports. But if you already updated to 4.2.1 and use the existing jailbreaks ( most probably tethered ), there’s not much you can loose.

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

Five Column SpringBoard for iPhone and iPod Touch

Who did it? A dude called Sakurina. Info about Five-Column Spring board :

This is my first ever Objective-C(++) project. Decided to tinker with MobileSubstrate after a discussion with roobi. We thought that having five columns would maximize space with themes like Abeo, Pump, or Nanocons, but there was no easy way to add a 5th column.

Looked a little into it and it looked fairly easy to do after all. This is mostly a modification of Five Icon Dock, both the dock and each page in SpringBoard are SBIconLists, therefore they both have maxIconColumns as a property you can override with MobileSubstrate.

There are a few issues:
– Due to the current hackish nature of this, it just so happens that if you only have 4 icons on your dock, the 1st icon will end up in the 4th column of a 5th row. This will be fixed, I know what’s causing it, just not necessarily how to fix it.
– Wiggly icons makes the phone reaaaaally slow as hell.
– Having SpringJumps display titles will throw off the 5th column’s icons by a couple pixels; my code doesn’t take the padding property into account yet.
– Haven’t actually tested it with Abeo/Nanocons/Pump yet to see what it looks like.

Otherwise, this was a pretty neat way to learn about MobileSubstrate and ObjC, and a nice hack to stay up at the middle of the night for. Stay tuned for updates.
