Looks great...I'm really pissed i forgot my iphone at home today. Othewise i'd be adding it right now!

mike - those are, essentially, the "bsd subsystem" that comes with Cydia. You should NOT uninstall those, no, as they are useful to many apps.

love it....

This is great and all but here is my concern: with the drama in the iphone developer community, splits, get back togethers, infighting and what not, Cydia exists at Nullriver's whim. Should they decide to flip the switch (for whatever reason) this ALL goes under. There certainly appears reason for them to feel slighted/threatened by all this. Right? They have had a rift in the past when this all began back in July and refused to allow some things on THEIR system. What's to say it doesn't happen again?

Correct me if I'm wrong, please. We need a server(s) for Cydia to reside on permanently, on its own and not subject to anyone's potential temper tantrum.

Has anyone considered this?

exNavy, i believe saurik is just using installer to install it, it isn't "residing" on any nullriver servers. If situations change I am sure saurik will come up with another easy install solution.

[exNavy]

As I understand it, you must add saurik as a source and there lies the potential problem. I guess you could always install this program via SSH then. Just want to think out the options here...

[Kyle Matthews]

Yup. The source URL for Cydia kinda gives that away - apptapp.saurik.com.

I suppose if Nullriver REALLY got mad they could block one specfic URL from being added... which would be plain ol dumb. People add sources all the time, thats no big deal.

exNavy, if Installer flips the switch, it would have to mean stopping ANY and ALL 3rd party sources, (which this is). Needless to say, thats not happening, and also, if that were to happen, it would hardly be harmful to Cydia as it will be the only solution out there at that point

looks great

I installed this and there was a main error while installing. Now my phone is stuck at the apple start screen.

[reppin4you]

Looks nice, I'll try it out

[lilskaterpunk]

Awesome work guys!
Just a quick question... It's safe to have installer.app and Cydia installed? Yes I know u need installer.app first to install the source and etc. but afterwards to keep it both on iPhone will not cause greif? and just to clear something up, this is basically just like installer.app where with Cydia u can still install NES, iPhysic, Emulaotors and the works?? Just need the sources to be added....

Thanks

[ericidle]

A great tool, many thanks saurik, I've already installed a few things without problem, also iAno refused to work for me under installer but works beautifully now, maybe something to do with the BSD replacement tools you packaged with this.

Keep up the good work and I look forward to more sources converting over to Cydia

Also I could hardly believe it when I clicked your thanks button and realised I was the first to do so, so you currently have one thanks in one post from me and many more to come i'm sure

Hi guys, I have a question. I am a complete novice at modding my phone as you can tell from some of my old posts and it has taken me almost forever up until about a month ago to jailbreak my phone. I want to try out cydia but im afraid i will mess something up and mess up my phone. My question is, is worth me installing cydia in just checking it out and not that i will uninstall it but would i be technically able to uninstall it and would it work with my apps from installer like summer board or would i have to download it again.......Man i havent even upgraded to 1.1.4 yet because i dont want to left without these great apps again. And i know ziphone 2.5 is out. Any insight would be great. TY

[mr_gfunk]

I have a jailbroken 1.1.3, and I use Windows... is this safe for me? Anything I need to know or just straight download and go...
