Saurik Updates Cycript With iOS 7 and ARM64 Support [video]

Saurik just released an update to Cycript which brings support for iOS 7 and ARM64 device with tons of new features, almost all of which are now documented in the new manual

Saurik just released an update to Cycript which brings support for iOS 7 and ARM64 device with tons of new features, almost all of which are now documented in the new manual, on the new website. http://www.cycript.org/

Cycript is an Objective-C/JavaScript hybrid that provides a live console for injecting into existing applications, either on Mac OS X or iOS. However, while developers are often very interested in the tool, it mostly has only been applicable to development on jailbroken devices.

In the video below, Jay Freeman (saurik) shows off the new version of Cycript that is now fully supported on Mac OS X (all versions from 10.6 through 10.9) and which can easily target the iOS Simulator. Additionally, he explains how this new version of Cycript can be used from Xcode as part of debugging an application “on device”.

Apple’s App Store Hyperwall at WWDC10 [video]

This hyperwall is powered by 30 Mac Pro towers with Mac OS X Snow Leopard and EVGA NVIDIA GTX 285 graphics cards. As apps are downloaded from the App Store, their data is coalesced via an XML feed every five minutes. Apps are sorted and scheduled using Cocoa and Objective-C. The data is then passed to an OpenCL kernel, which drives the animation. Quartz Composer brings all the technologies together and renders the final synchronized output using Quartz Composer Visualizer.

The guys at New Media Geekz decided to live stream their “Seven Day App” Project. They are coding an iPad app called “Drum Pad” ( at least we think so, we didn’t get on board from the beginning, and that’s what we could tell from the code ), and it could be something fun for all you geeks to watch. If you have no idea what’s going on with ObjectiveC and Xcode and everything, this will be booooring! Check the live stream here….

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.
