RockApp Launches 2.0

**vekkth** · 10-14-2009, 02:09 PM

do i understand correctly that RYP guys removed their apps from Cydia while they effectively use repo community built around Cydia to promote their app?
no offense, just trying to get a full picture.

i have no real com,plaints about rockapp yet.. i was a cydia user from way back and actually had a hard time switching from installer to cydia. I didnt want to use rock after jailbreaking my 3gs at first but after using it here and there i find its the first place i got now and skip right over cydia.

Nice..but not for me..cyida is what I roll with..

does rock work with 3.1.2

**xxhorseriderxxx** · 10-15-2009, 01:32 PM

I'd consider installin' RockApp on my test iPod, but since everythin' is a paid app, I don't even bother.

**grmiller** · 10-15-2009, 05:52 PM

Yes rock works with 3.1.2! I have even used it on my iphone 3GS 32Gb with 3.1.2 and MyWi also works with it, Tethering 100%!

Um, Rock is amazing. So much faster than Cydia. I used the backup function and restore functions when i upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1.2 and it worked really well. My ipod looks the exact same as before, and i had it pretty modded. The UI is great and it runs very smoothly. Great work. I don't use cydia at all now.

i tried the new rock and it rocks! it cannot do everything cydia can but what it does it does better

**steve51184** · 10-17-2009, 11:31 PM

so are we going to get any help or an update so we can use any cydia sources as i'm sure this is stopping a lot of users using the rockapp

**Heelfan71** · 10-23-2009, 11:15 AM

I prefer rock too. Looks better, runs better. Nice to be able to browse while downloading something. Very clean. Cydia needs to spruce it up a bit and speed it up.

i have a few questions.

can rockapp co-exist with cydia without issues on the same device?
can rockapp be easily uninstalled?
does rockapp backup apps, settings, etc so easy upgrade when necessary?

thanks.

yes, it works fine with Cydia. Not sure about how easy it is to uninstall, but I would assume you can just uninstall it in Cydia since that is where you download it from...........It does backups too.

Rock has defiantly taken the place of cydia for me, no doubt about it. All you cydia users who know what I'm talking about when cydia is too 'IN YOUR FACE.' When opening up after you've set it up, it goes through prep, gives you annoying pop-up errors and stops you from doing anything while it re-loads all it's data. This is especially for those of your who download/install a lot of packages from cydia. With rock this isn't a problem, initial opening of rock has a progress bar in the bottom left of the screen, and it allows full navigation during data re-load.

Now if it could just put your ECID SHSH on file then I would dump Cydia.
