New again

Well after a mishap in what I thought would be a quick and painless WordPress upgrade, I’ve ended up rewriting this site to use the pretty cool Wintersmith, which the Cydia repo has been using for some time. Given this site is now made of completely static files generated by my computer at home and not the server, that won’t happen again.

End of season

It’s that time of year again when a new major iOS has just come out and the jailbreak community starts to significantly decrease in size. Thus, I’ll be releasing a final update before I stop working on tweaks until the iOS 8 jailbreak release - FlagPaint7 1.3. Here’s the changelog of the update I just submitted to BigBoss:

Three thousand

I was originally going to postpone this until the iOS 8 jailbreak, but thanks to the recent iOS 7.1 jailbreak release, today I’m announcing that “something awesome” I mentioned.

This month in HASHBANG history

The first five months this year were definitely nowhere near as good as they should have been for HASHBANG, in terms of getting well-tested tweak updates out quick.

Introducing Aphelion

Recently, HASHBANG Productions has been working on an app for iOS devices running iOS 7. You’d know that already if you’ve been following @AphelionApp on Twitter. This app is (yes, yet another) Twitter client, with the aim of looking right at home in iOS 7’s new UI, as well as allowing you to multitask.
