Like Zed, Installer For IPhone Is Dead

12:40AM Jesus Diaz | Oh Installer, Installer, we had so much fun together, you and I. When Apple didn’t have any iPhone app store, and whenever Apple blocked some essential iPhone apps, you were always there. And now… now you are dead. More »

Quake on iPhone Comes to Cydia Installer

3:40AM Jason Chen | That Quake game for the iPhone we wrote about a few months back has made it onto Cydia, the jailbreak application repository. Just Another iPhone Blog says it’s not too slow and it doesn’t make use of the accelerometer (so it’s probably not the version we wrote about before), but it does play fairly well. Seeing as it’s not the one we wrote about before, we’re not sure if it’s even networked, but c’mon, Quake on iPhone! [Just Another iPhone Blog] More »

Installer 4 Beta For iPhone 2.0 Leaked

11:53PM John Mahoney | The folks at InstallerApps claim that they’ve come across a leaked early version of Installer.app 4, the version that works with the iPhone 2.0 software. The download link works, but the installation process requires SSH and command line work to install and is apparently still an early rough beta. So, install at your own risk if at all, but it does match the screenshots we’ve seen and looks to be working in the video. [InstallerApps] More »

iPhone NES Emulator Adds Accelerometer Support, Brings Tilt Control to Mario

11:40AM Gizmodo US Edition | The new version of the popular NES emulator for the iPhone and iPod Touch now includes accelerometer control for all games. The implementation is very simple: a tilt is equivalent to control input in that direction. This means that tilt control can be used in any game loaded into the emulator, but also that some of the controls are pretty much balls. Also, this app does not live in the official app store.

Next Version of Installer.app For iPhone 2.0 Software Looks Like It’s Getting Close

9:07AM John Mahoney | These screens were released today by the developers of Installer.app showing Installer 4, the next version that will work with jailbroken iPhones running firmware 2.0. By the slick looks of it, it looks like they’re getting close. When it’s done, it will be multi-threaded (meaning everything doesn’t come to a halt while your sources are being updated) and support package dependencies as well. As you know, we can’t wait.

TiVoRemote App Updated with Slick GUI and Handy Features

7:40AM Gizmodo US Edition | TiVoremote, the iPhone / iPod touch Telnet TiVo Remote app, was finally updated a few weeks ago with an ooey gooey GUI, and some really useful new features. Now at version 0.23, the app can now detect TiVos on your home network, allowing for easy selection of the TiVo you want to control. What’s even better is the app now has the ability to download the Now Playing list data from the TiVo, allowing the iPhone to show what’s been recorded and display each recordings data info. The app can also use the NPL data to start playing the recordings automatically. So if you’ve got a Jailbroken iPhone / iPod touch, and a Series 3 TiVo, I would suggest giving the app a try, it’s surprisingly useful. [TiVoRemote] More »
