Hi folks! Many of you are wondering what’s up with Installer 4. No, we haven’t slowed down the work on it, and are currently in the final stages of hooking the GUI to the back-end. We will be contacting the authors of the major repositories in a few days to invite them into the testing process and to prepare for the upcoming repository changes.

Meanwhile, here’s a few actual screenshots so you can check out how the new Installer 4 will look like:

Take screenshots without any apps

apps March 18th, 2008

While working on a Caterpillar update, we’ve discovered an interesting fact – to take screenshots, you don’t need any additional apps! SpringBoard itself can do it, once the hidden feature is activated.Here’s how:

  • Add http://repository.ripdev.com/ to Installer.app if you haven’t already
  • Install Apple Screenshot Enabler from the RiP Dev category
  • Take your screenshots :)))

To take a screenshot, hold down Home (Menu) button on the phone and toggle the Mute button. The screen will flash and the screenshot will be saved to the Camera Roll. Simple as that!

Enjoy. Works under 1.1.3 and newer.
