DemoGod with iPhone remote control support
Posted by c0diq in DemoGod, ScreenSplitr on August 18th, 2009
Tonight, I was able to get DemoGod to control the iPhone remotely. It will require a quick update to ScreenSplitr though. I have yet to finalize how I will let users decide the “viewer mode only” vs “remote control”. The remote control will be based on vnc. Most precisely, it will require installing the Veency package on Cydia. For the viewer part, I have 2 solutions between Flashlight-VNC and TightVNC Java Applet. Both work, TightVNC seems a bit faster. I am thinking I will provide an option for users to choose which one they prefer.
Here’s a quick video I made using Screenjelly. Obviously there are a few issues left to be resolved.
ScreenSplitr never quitting fix for 2.2.1
Posted by c0diq in ScreenSplitr on June 30th, 2009
I have many complaints about ScreenSplitr 3.0 not quitting on firmware 2.2. Since I don’t have a 2.2 iphone anymore I had to borrow K. 3G which was still running 2.2.1. I asked her to do a simple backup but before I knew it, she happily agreed to please iTunes and upgrade her iphone to the latest! Nice. Stuck with a 2G and a 3G running 3.0. After 2 hours of screwing around, I was able to downgrade it back to 2.2.1. Unfortunately now it has the 3.0 baseband update, so I hope I can still jailbreak it with ultrasn0w.
In any case, after more time trying to build and run ScreenSplitr 3.0 on the 2.2.1, I found out that on 2.2.1 if the app terminates while resuming, the OS happily restarts it because it thinks that it was resuming while it was terminating and that what the user wanted was really to restart it! This doesn’t happen on 3.0 of course.
The fix is to delay the suspension on resume by 2 secs. phew
I have informed BigBoss of the fix. Now we have to wait for it to be published. Look for version 1.1.0-16 on cydia.
Now back to upgrading 3G 2.2.1 to 3.0 and jailbreak/unlock it.
ScreenSplitr fix for 3.0 available on Cydia

Big thanks to BigBoss for pushing it out last night and for all your help in testing it.
Enjoy.
