Converting SDK app to Jailbreak app

[ed_case]

Hi there,

I Just finished building an app on the Official 2.0 SDK. But I wanted to distribute my app for Jailbroken phones.

Can someone tell me/point me to a detailed tutorial on how I go about doing this?

Thank you!

just don't sign it, and use ldid(from Cydia) on the code file on your iPhone.

ldid -S /Applications/xyz.app/xyz
chmod +x /Applications/xyz.app/xyz
and it works!

try it with HelloWorld first. (I did)

Wonderful! Now I can write unofficial apps with the official SDK.

Lol can someone please help me do this, I made the app but I don't exactly know what to do, second

Can you make a command that has a space in the directory?

I would love if somebody could write a step by step guide to do this. I have been looking for a way to do this!

Not that I think Apple will actually sue anybody but does anybody know about the legal issiues using the official SDK to develop an app and distributing it via cydia? I suppose that would harm the terms of use of the SDK? And if so what WOULD be Apples legal options?

Easy, just put a backslash before the space and terminal will understand to interpret it as a continuous command.

Example to browse to a folder in your home directory called New Folder, the command would be:
cd ~/New\ Folder/
or
cd /Users/John\ Doe/New\ Folder/

I'm not sure the terms would disallow distribution by another method (have to read more fine print) but I it definitely doesn't allow use of non-public APIs so they could deny you use of the SDK and pursue "damages" whatever that might mean.
