A recently released Cydia tweak called IAP cracker allows users to download In-App purchases for free. This tweak cracks in-app purchases as long as the app doesn’t check the purchase with the iTunes server. This tweak does not enable all in-app purchases automatically and it does not even work on many App Store applications.You have to buy/steal the In-App purchase like you would normally do.

I tested it personally and it worked on many apps that i am not going to name here because we are totally against any type of App piracy and i decided to report this news just because this is an unusual hack that we don’t see everyday and we would like Apple to fix this issue as soon as possible.

IAP is available in Cydia Store under Insanelyi and xsellize repositories for free.

Disclaimer: We do not recommend this tweak to anyone as In-App purchases are a major source of income for many developers who put a lot of work in creating awesome apps that we know and love. We are not responsible if this tweak  does not work for you and you wasted your money in trying to steal the In-App purchases for your own pleasure.

iOS can be termed as the simplest and easiest mobile operating system when it comes to daily usage. You don’t have to be an expert for doing so called difficult jobs on your iOS device, however it can be a little tricky when you are not doing it right. Finding the IP address is one of those tasks that can confuse a newbie. IP address can be useful for a number of ways and knowing it enables you to perform a variety of tasks related to networking.

Thanks to this simple how to guide by OSXDaily, you can find out the IP address of your device by following the three simple steps below.

• Tap on the “Settings” icon and navigate and tap on “Wi-Fi Networks”
• Find the network name of the router you are currently connected to, and tap on the blue arrow button next to the active networks name
• Assuming you are usually a DHCP address, scroll down and find the IP Address in the format of x.x.x.x, for example 192.168.1.2

This post is a part of our ‘iOS Starters’ series’ in which we try to guide new iOS users by writing simple how to posts on how things are done on their new Apple devices.

Verizon Wireless has aired a new ad to promote its 3G network and the ad features Apple iPad 2 in it. Like usual Verizon ads this one too focuses on how reliable Verizon’s 3G network is on the iPad by using which users can download iBooks and use Twitter even when they are miles away from the nearest Wi-Fi hotspot. This is so far the first ad for iPad 2 that has been made by someone other than Apple itself, and i think they have done a pretty decent job with this one.

Discovered by MacRumors in the change log of Atari’s Greatest Hits app, this joystick by Atari is something every iPad gamer should own. This new joystick that is officially named “Atari Arcade – Duo Powered” is an add-on for iPad that will allow users to play classic Atari games that are available in the App Store using the classic-style controls.

The application has already been made compatible by Atari for this accessory so we anticipate that it will be released in the market soon, however its official DiscoveryBayGames page says that it will be made available soon without any mention of date or pricing details.

Simply connect your iPad to Atari Arcade, download Atari’s Greatest Hits app for Duo, and you are ready to share the fun with family and friends anywhere!

As revealed by 9to5Mac Apple is going to launch a new remote diagnostics service for iOS devices that will be somewhat similar to the one already in use at Apple retails stores. How this service works is simple, iOS Diagnostics sends an email to iOS device that asks the user to allow a diagnostic report to be sent to Apple. That report will then be displayed within GSX (GSX is a tool used by Apple to organize AppleCare repairs) in near real-time.

Alongside email, users will be asked about these reports via SMS and a manual URL that will be provided to the customer.

Apple describes this new service as following:

“iOS Diagnostics is a fully integrated tool used to retrieve diagnostic information from Apple iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices. By sending an SMS text, Email, or Ticket to the customer’s phone, diagnostics results are sent to GSX; allowing to gain in-depth knowledge of the iOS device condition.”

According to 9To5Mac, the following information about the device will be sent to Apple in the report

Insight into usage patterns, battery functions, temperature warnings, memory usage, application issues, and more.

More screenshots of this service can be found on this page [9to5Mac]

iPhone Dev-Team has released the updated version of their popular RedSn0w tool to tether jailbreak iOS 5 beta 7 on iOS devices. Apple recently released iOS 5 beta 7 and Dev-Team managed to jailbreak it in a short span of time. iOS 5 beta 7 was already jailbreakable with older version of RedSn0w but users had to point to iOS 5 beta 6 first in order to jailbreak it. But now users can directly jailbreak their devices with iOS 5 beta 7.

Below is the release note by iPhone Dev-Team

Update #7b:  About 12 hours after we released redsn0w 0.9.8b7 with some improvements for iOS5b6, Apple went and released iOS5b7 (what are the odds of that?!?).  Even though that redsn0w could still jailbreak iOS5b7, you needed to point it at the iOS5b6 IPSW to do so.  Today’s redsn0w 0.9.8b7b lets you point redsn0w directly at the iOS5b7 IPSW instead.

We’ve also added some overall improvements for old-bootrom 3GS owners (where the 24kpwn exploit applies):  on those devices, you can tell redsn0w to untether 4.3.5 and lower, or iOS5b7.  Old-bootrom 3GS owners can once again choose custom logos, and/or verbose booting (for the really nerdy iPhone3GS fans out there!).  And it allows 4.3.4 or 4.3.5 users to use ultrasn0w again (if they have a compatible baseband).

Last but not least, we fixed some lingering Verizon iPhone4 4.2.10 JB issues.

Download links for Mac and Windows are as following:

• redsn0w 0.9.8b7b for Mac
• redsn0w 0.9.8b7b for Windows
