Rob's Thoughts on SiNFul iPhone

Ok, so, if you downloaded Icy from the SinFul iPhone repo we strongly suggest that you delete it. After you delete Icy, I now suggest that you should install it from our SAFE repo: apt.robinofree.com. Why we say this:

1. SiNFul iPhone is not a good repo at all. We as 100% against piracy, and since SiNFul is basically 100% pirate, we don't like them.

and

2. SiNFul also supports many AppStore pirates aswell by giving out the app "Installous". This app alows users to illegally download AppStore Apps, so aswell, this is bad.

Ok, now you may be thinking: "Isn't Icy free?" and to this we say, yes you are stealing a free balloon(SpongeBob), but just having SiNFul isn't good at all, let alone downloading apps from it. Now, looking at our support email, weamdev@gmail.com, I noticed that about 90% of all problems reported with Icy were from users that downloaded Icy from SiNFul. So is this a link to THEIR version of Icy? Probably, they copied our app and rebuilt the package with their package name(com.sinfuliphone.icy).

So, please, don't pirate! And let's start a revolution against the SiNFul iPhone Repo! I'm sure many developers will agree with us about SiNFul, and I hope that you all see the points that I brought up in this post. But anyway, enjoy the weekend, and look for Icy 2.1 soon!

  4. If you go to the 10.7 preview page (http://www.apple.com/macosx/lion/) it has an app called Launchpad, does this mean UIKit is coming to mac? If so Cydia is just wasting time if this comes with the mac App Store.

  5. to @avi888, we were having some temporary problems with our repo, it si back up, and Icy 2.0 only work on iOS 4 devices(sorry). Why don't you upgrade to iOS 4? There will very soon be an untethers jailbreak for your device. But whatever floats your boat......
