That Monday was very interesting!
Russian iPhone users helped to find one bug with unicode processing and pointed on a lack of help on registration process. I have fixed both.
Some users asked to create public forum or place where thay can share codes. I like that you need it. Practically, I have planned to do it later but now I have to change my mind.
Then, I have got comments from Semacode team. The main difference between our projects is that I try to establish e-ticketing or mobile commerce platform and I'm not so interested in simple code recognition. Therefore, I need small and reliable code that can be decoded by majority of phones, not iPhone only. For that task I cannot use textual information, encode URLS as text. I can rely on short and well compressed string of digits.
Also, I what to make each code dynamic but not seal it immediately after creation.

So thanks to the magic of an activation emulator and the original work of Dvd Jon, I got the activation/unlock record of a French unlocked iPhone. The field looks like
"UnlockCode" = "NO=111111111111111&";
with the 1's replaced by the code. "NO" is the lock type. There are fifteen digits, so I'm pretty sure the NCK length is 15. This is out of range of a bruteforcer, and I doubt, although its possible, that the NCK's are based off the IMEI/DevID. I would think Apple just has a big lookup table. Although any visible pattern would shorten the brute force time. So I still really need a.plists off legal unlocked phones.

We proudly present a new version of Icy, 1.4. It was tested on 2.2.1 and 3.0b5 firmware versions, and everything seems to work great.
A first thing you will notice is the new icon. This is something we wanted to do all along since pre-1.0, but unfortunately Max was busy for a while, so we only got the icon a few days ago, but I think it was worth the wait. :)
Full change list is available on the Icy webpage, but overall, this release is aimed at providing customizability and fixes.
Customizing Icy for Your Skinning Needs
We have been contacted by many people to adjust the look of Icy so it fits their theme, instead of pure black and white look. The biggest challenge was to keep the speed (app launch time, overall GUI responsiveness) the same as before while giving the flexibility to the theme makers. I believe we have achieved that perfectly.
So, in order to change the Icy appearance, include the file named IcyThemeDefiniton.plist in the theme bundle. Icy will automatically see it and use the definitions from there.
The following keys are available for the IcyThemeDefinition.plist file:
- StatusBarStyle (string): can be either "black", "white" or "transparent". Defines the appearance of the status bar style in the application.
- NavigationBarTintColor (string): defines the global color for all navigation bars used in the application, unless a specific section overrides it (see below).
- TableBackgroundColor (string): defines the global table background color (or pattern), unless a specific section overrides it (see below as well).
- TableSeparatorColor (string): defines the global table separator color, unless a specific section overrides it.
- TableTextColor (string): defines the global table text color, unless a specific section overrides it.
- InstallBackgroundColor (string): defines the install/remove pane background color (or pattern).
- PackageInfoBackgroundColor (string): defines the package info background color (or pattern).
How to define a color: a color string may be either a triplet or quad of digits separated by comma, or an image file name. It's easier to give some examples:
- 0,0,0: black color — each digit is a floating point number from 0 to 1, inclusive. If fourth digit is given, it is an alpha value.
- 0.5,0,0: dark red (0.5 red, 0 everything else)
- DottyBackground.png: pattern loaded from the image DottyBackground.png in the theme bundle.
- (empty): clear (transparent) color.
As you can see, you can easily customize the appearance of Icy by defining the keys above. If any key is not found, a default value is used. Now to make things even more flexible, you can define the colors for each section of the application. If any section-specific key is found, it will override the global one for that particular section:
- NavigationBarTintColor_Packages, NavigationBarTintColor_Sources, NavigationBarTintColor_Search, NavigationBarTintColor_Installed
- TableBackgroundColor_Packages, TableBackgroundColor_Sources, TableBackgroundColor_Search, TableBackgroundColor_Installed
- TableSeparatorColor_Packages, TableSeparatorColor_Sources, TableSeparatorColor_Search, TableSeparatorColor_Installed
- TableTextColor_Packages, TableTextColor_Sources, TableTextColor_Search, TableTextColor_Installed
You can also specify custom category icons in your theme — simply include the files named CategoryCATEGORYNAME.png and if present, the specified category will use that image, for example, CategoryThemes.png.
If you need more flexibility, let us know. :)
