The Leap Changes The Way We Interact With Our Computers. The Future Is Now! [video]

In the beginning was the command line. And vacuum tubes, punch cards, keyboards, and mice. After all these years, we still use the standard tools to control our computers. But what if there was something more?

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

Jaadu VNC for iPhone

This is a guest post by iRoc, and today he is going to fill you in on one of his most favorite apps :  Jaadu! icon

What exactly is Jaadu and why would I need it, You might ask. Well, let’s say you are at work and you need a file, but that file is on your computer at home. You could call home and try to talk someone through navigating to the file and sending it to you. Oh, but that almost always is a head ache at best. Wouldn’t be great if you could just get in touch with the Enterprise , and teleport back home and get the file? No Jaadu is not about to save you thousands on travel expenses or make your daily commute magically disappear. Though Jaadu was formerly known as Teleport, and it’s the next best thing to a real deal teleporter.

Jaddu will allow you to remotely access any of your computers anytime you want or need right from your iPhone. You will have 100% control over your distant computer, or the one that’s just out of arms reach if you want to roll that way. 100%? That’s right 100%!

Your desktop even shows on the iPhone screen. So you can navigate to the necessary file and send it to yourself via email, instant messenger, any way that you could send that file if you were sitting right there at your computer normally, and everyone is happy and you are the big hero of the day in your boss’s eye.

Here’s how I used it last. I was at the store and I saw a DVD for a movie I had been meaning to download and watch, but always seemed to forget when I was at my computer. So I reached in my pocket got out my iPhone called Scotty and said, “Scotty one for transport.” N o not really. I opened Jaddu selected my laptop at home. Opened Firefox, went to mininova.org and searched for the movie. Once I found it I started the download. I could even check back in periodically to see how the download was coming along. Anything you can do sitting at your computer with your keyboard and mouse you can do on the screen of your iPhone with Jaadu.

Apple’s AppStore on the WWW

appstore

Maybe some of you might knew about this, but i just found out about it. The Apple AppStore is finally on the web. The appstore itself it was a revolutionary release, changing the way users conception about finding and install applications for their mobile phones.

This online version of the App Store, which is clearly not sanctioned by Apple, runs on Google’s App Engine. As Amit Agarwal notes, Apple uses a rather cryptic XML format for delivering the pages in iTunes. However, the developers of the online App Store have found a way to decrypt these XML files and render them as regular HTML.

There are some limitations tho, because at one point or the other, you need to run iTunes in order to install an app. Given Apple’s litigious nature, we don’t know if this version of the App Store will be around for a very long time, but it’s a great resource if you just want to link to an app in the store, for example, without your users having to open the desktop iTunes app (which, after all, is not available on all operating systems).

HOW TO INSTALL CRACKED APPLICATIONS ON YOUR iPhone/iPod TOUCH


Ok , since i got a lot of emails lately asking me how to install cracked apps, ive decided to create this small and easy but usefull ( i hope ) tutorial for you guys and girls out there. ( btw do i have any girls reading this blog? that would be dope. let me know, youll get special treatment 😛 ).

So first thing that you need to do is that YOU CANT install cracked apps without a jailbroken device ( iPhone or Touch ). So since i belive in the power of decision and the beauty of options i will offer you 3 methods of installing cracked apps.

  • iTunes method aka .ipa method.
  • SSH method aka direct method.
  • IPAPREP method.

First let me answer some questions for you :

What is SSH?

SSH is a secure way of transferring information (including files) between computers on a network. SFTP is a secure way of transferring files which, despite the name, has little in common with FTP. (definition via link).

What is WinSCP?

WinSCP (Windows Secure copy) is an open source SFTP and FTP client for Microsoft Windows. Its main function is secure file transfer between a local and a remote computer. Beyond this, WinSCP offers basic file manager functionality. For secure transfers, it uses Secure Shell (SSH) and supports the legacy SCP protocol in addition to SFTP. (definition via link).


NOTE : if your on crappy windows os like me, you can do this via iTunnel suite. Check out small tut on how to use it here.

ToneFXs – Customize Every System Sound of Your iPhone

The thing is , well all love and appreciate this wonderful technological jewel : the iPhone. But the truth is that on some levels you lack the ability to express yourself with it. Like how many of you wanted to customize the new text message sound. I bet 99.99% of you. Well it is doable but its just too much work that need to be done, in order to achieve that. And isn’t Apple products the ones that ” ..they just work ” ?

Well let me introduce you today to ToneFXs . This app is a great app that lets you customize your iPhone in the way you want to, make it personal. There are 2 parts in this story. First you need a jailbroken iPhone. Once you got a jailbroken iPhone, download and install ToneFXs via cydia onto your iPhone.Now you need to download the desktop app from Efiko Software ( both for Mac and PC ). Once you’ve completed this two steps, you are basically ready to go.

Plug you iPhone into your computer, lunch the program, browse computer for files, rename your files and send them to your iPhone. As simple as it can get. Once you sent all the sounds to your iPhone,  the files will show up now in your option list. ToneFXs allows you to customize just about every system sound of the iPhone. One thing it can’t do is to assign different texts alrets sounds to every contact. I hope they will work on that, cause that would be badass.

The price is donation-based. You can give anywhere from $5 to $15 on the website, and you’ll receive a serial to plug into the app.

You do need to be aware of the caveat that Efiko puts on their site:

If you are familiar with all the past drama that started with iPhone 1.1, you should know we can’t guarantee this app will work in future iPhone and iTunes software because we don’t know what new lock down measures Apple may add to these upcoming iPhone updates that may prevent ToneFXs from working. Thus, we won’t offer refunds if ToneFXs does not work in future iPhone Software. Apple may decide to prevent this customization for whatever reason, however we doubt it as it’s a whole lot of fun and harmless. Regardless, we enjoy ToneFXs as much as you do and are committed to doing everything in our power to update ToneFXs to work with future iPhone and iTunes software updates just as we have done with iPhoneRingToneMaker.

NOTE :

You might get an error from time to time with various files, but dont worry its not you or your files. Just quit the app and relunch it. THat should fix it.

Happy Customizing

LATER EDIT :

Click Browse Computer and search for audio files on you HDD.

Select an audio file that you like and click open.

1. Thats the slider. It is locked on 15 seconds. You can make it less than 15 seconds if you want to and you can position it where you want. Listen to the tune and decide which 15 seconds of it do you want as a sound on you iPhone and position the slider there.

2. Fade in and Fade out the sound. If you don’t want that just delect them

3. Preview to make sure that is what you want.

4. Send to your phone. Thats it. ToneFXs does it magic super fast and the sound its on your phone.

This is ToneFXs option meniu in your iPhone. Personalize your iPhone. Its about damn time.

PdaNet 1.4.0 PATCH FOR iPhone

First of all do you know what PdaNet is? Well basically if Google brought you here, you do, cause this is what you’ve been searching for. But please be patient and let me do a short description for all the people that have no idea:

PdaNet got popular with Windows Mobile and PalmOS. And now its here for your iPhone. What does it do? Well it allows your laptop or desktop to go online (wireless) by connection it to the iPhone via Wi-Fi.

So , if you browse through cydia, you will find PdaNet ( attention : there are 2 versions ). But they are not free. So in order for you to patch it, and break free from all of the restriction that you get with the free version , you got to do this :

  • Download Patch here
  • Install PdaNet 1.4.0 from Cydia ( MAKE SURE ITS 1.4.0 )
  • SSH into iPhone
  • Navigate too /var/stash/Applications.XYZWAHF/PdaNet.app/ ( XYZWAHF means that you will need to find the wierd named folder where PdaNet.app is )
  • Overwrite the PdaNet folder with the one from the link.
  • Set the permissions to 0755
  • Reboot iPhone/iPod for patch to take effect
