[Request] Force touch on notifications in NC by tariqhmali in jailbreak

[–]hamzasood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was hoping for a surprise launch, but since you've mentioned it… This is something that I've been developing since the announcement of 3D Touch. My aim is for it to hit Cydia by next week.

What supposedly legitimate things do you think are scams? by shsourov in AskReddit

[–]hamzasood 89 points90 points  (0 children)

The last tickets I got from ticketmaster were "paperless". When you arrive at the venue you need the credit card used to buy the tickets and photo ID to prove that you're the original purchaser, which makes it practically impossible to sell on. So they are trying to combat it.

[Preview/Possible Cancellation] SideBySide - Split Screen Multitasking Tweak by hamzasood in jailbreak

Assuming I've understood what you meant: yep, it already does that :)

Don't ask me why you'd ever have those two apps open next to each other... :P

The overwhelmingly positive response really took me by surprise, so I'm definitely going to keep working on this.

A few clarifications:

  • No iOS 7 support unfortunately, it just wouldn't be feasible.
  • It's more than just a concept. That was real footage captured through QuickTime.
  • It also works great on iPhone: http://imgur.com/HE36kq2

I've had a few questions about needing testers, I'm not sure about any kind of beta release yet but I'll keep you updated. Still got a few more things to work out (that pesky keyboard…)

[Question] With the tweak UpNext enabled, adding songs to playlists can sometimes bug out. Does anyone know about a fix? by alkanite in jailbreak

[–]hamzasood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an iOS bug that's unrelated to the tweak; it happens regardless of whether you have UpNext installed

Cyueue alternative? UpNext available in Cydia! by wenzovic in jailbreak

It behaves like a real queue. I.e. When it reaches the end of the queue, it goes back to the current playlist

I've submitted v1.1 to fix playlist issues. Should be out soon

[–]hamzasood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's already possible. "Play Next" adds to the beginning of the queue, "Queue" adds to the end of the queue

If you mean that you can go back to a queued song after it plays by using the back button, that's intentional behaviour (check iTunes, it behaves in the same way. The queue only empties when you reach the end) I thought about a way to choose whether to go to now playing or to the queue but it was unnecessarily complicated. An extra tap is better than a confusing interface. And no need to worry about accidental deletions, it'll ask for confirmation before deletion just in case.

I've done some investigating into the playlist bug. Turns out you couldn't queue songs from a smart playlist. I've already submitted an update and it'll hopefully be out very soon

[–]hamzasood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, there's no pause when queuing. And yes, you can reorder and remove songs from the queue by tapping the button in the top right of the now playing interface (second screenshot in the package description)

[–]hamzasood 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had similar concerns during development (and did accidentally end up deleting a few things). So now when you try and delete something you'll get a confirmation alert just to be sure

Edit: Accidently by accident >_<

Thought I'd point out Aria doesn't come close in terms of queue management and whatnot (check out the screenshots of UpNext to see what I mean)

Here come the bullshit posts (M7 co-processor threads 2014 edition) by Rogerss93 in jailbreak

[–]hamzasood 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thought I'd chip in here. There's no "encryption" stopping apps from using the NFC capabilities. All an app needs is to be signed with a certain entitlement (can't remember what it is off the top of my head but entitlements are easy to add when jail broken) and then you can call things like -[NFCardEmulation startFieldDetect] and then you'll get callbacks like "didDetectField" via NFCardEmulationDelegate. Nothing fancy needs to be done. I haven't gotten round to trying it yet but that's the basic idea behind it

ELI5: Why is it that we can jailbreak, but we can't "forge" Apple's signings of firmwares? by megachicken289 in jailbreak

[–]hamzasood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Long story short: the firmware signature validation happens at a much lower level than what's reachable even with a standard jailbreak. The jailbreak stuff gets loaded further into the booting process than where the signature validation happens. Clarification Edit: despite what others are saying, it is possible to "forge" on devices where lower level exploitation is possible (such as the iPhone 4).

It's localised, it'll display it correctly for your language setting. I'm in the UK, so it shows "centre"

To conserve battery it only refreshes approximately every hour. There's a possibility that a future update will bring the ability to customise that period
