How To Create a Cydia Tweak! (iOS 8+ compatible)

Hey guys. I haven't posted in a while and I just recently learned the fundamentals of making an actual tweak thanks for http://ioscheaters.com and its members.

Creating a tweak for iOS is basically tweaking the actual system or the application. Obviously stuff like Display Recorder or even iFile is faaar from what I mean here but this tutorial will hopefully help you get on the right track.

The first thing is first, you need to install theos on your device. To do that, I will have a separate post because its just that lengthy and time consuming but for those who find how to install theos before my post, here is a video that I kind of explain how to go about making a tweak.

I will do an actual commentary soon with more options and FULL tutorial of how to make these type of tweaks and if this method can be used on games and such.

If you are a Objective C coder, then hey this might be a new door opener for you! :)

Enjoy.

(No Jailbreak) iOS 8 Screen Recorder and Broadcaster!

Hey guys, if you don't remember shou from jailbroken days (still jb days for those who kept their devices on iOS 7 or don't have an i6/+), allow me to introduce it to you.

Shou is a screen recorder and broadcaster for iOS 8 that allows you to, obviously, broadcast your screen to a specific URL hosted by Shou.TV This app allows you to record your iOS Device screen and broadcast it over an active internet connection. Not to mention the ability to save the stream online just like youtube.

If you visit http://shou.tv/shakespear you will find my channel and the test(s) I am posting.

See the following youtube video for a tour of the app and more information on how to get it!!

Creating Apps on Windows without needing Mac!

TheOS is a very handy tool that is limit-free. You can code for iPhone/iPad/iPod and make actual apps.

I personally do not have much experience with TheOS as the most I have done is make a MobileSubstrate hack for a game called Monster Mayhem. If you are planning to release your app to the appstore I would recommend you either get VMWare and run Mac OS X under it for your development. The VMWare copy of Mac could be slow or fast, depending on your system. Friendly tip: Run Mac on computers with 6+ GB of ram.

Coolstar is the person behind all this awesomeness, and you should refer to his website for more information regarding this tool. I have actually made a test app (default app that you literally just compile right when theos starts) on my iPhone and I have to say I am impressed.
