iPhone Wireless Sync App (wiSync) Development Thread

[jakecigar]

is 1.0.1 marked as 1.0.0??

is killall SpringBoard the best we can do from a shell script to return?

jakecigar: this is a known issue and it relates to the zsh shell's pure incompetence on the iPhone. It will not read the exit command in some contexts, so after sync we have to respring - otherwise the user will be stuck inside the app with no way to get out. I agree that this is a half-assed solution at the moment, but we are working on a way to get around this limitation. Thanks for your input though!

exit doesn't work... I gave up on it long ago!

note how I get out of hell.
#!/bin/sh
export PATH=/var/root/bin:$PATH
code=`basename $0`
alert -t "$code ?" "Jeff" "Jake" "Home" "Junior" "Cancel"
case $? in
1 ) exec doSafari tel:408-xxx-3108 ;;
2 ) exec doSafari tel:415-xxx-3132 ;;
3 ) exec doSafari tel:415-xxx-3232 ;;
4 ) exec doSafari http://jpassoc.com/junior ;;
* ) exec /System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/SpringBoard;;
esac

PS it's inside an APP!

wiSync v1.1 has been released!

1. This release now supports Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) as well
2. The native app has had a major overhaul, now compatible with Dock app.

If you still need help with the windows development, I can help. I'm working on a windows sync app right now already, so we could work something out . Just contact me on here. If would be cool to have a windows app that worked with the native app, and I'm willing to work with you on that.

Thanks!

Is this working yet for Windows?

I was looking for an application to make backup copies of the data on the iPhone, including app store applications and third party apps WITHOUT the need of iTunes.

I have installed the software on my macbook air and checked the "install wisync" on iPhone but the application is not shown on the phone.
I checked the sbsettings hide icons and the wi toggle is there, but not hidden.
What should the "iPhone Sync Folder" and "Mac Sync Folder" be?
Is there a help file for this application?

Thanks for any help.
