I can not get this app or source not shown in Cydia??
You have to add the source manually into Cydia.
I did try to add it manually and get an incorrect url
Got it correct url is david.ashman.com/apt/
Honestly, if it’s working to dismiss alerts when your phone is unlocked, that’s not intentional. Based on the API I’m using, it should only affect the lockscreen.
I have to wonder if the home button click works for popups while the phone is unlocked even without my extension. ;-)
holy crap, 29 updates in Cydia? lol
21. :P
I can’t add the source…I know Cydia is version-aware…maybe because I’m running 2.2.1?
You’re trying to add http://david.ashman.com/apt/? I know several users that have no problems with 2.2.1.
Just tried it again and the source was added just fine…tried several times earlier today with no luck so I’m not sure what was happening.
Just to let you know; working: http://david.ashman.com/apt/
And, firstly, you need to install mobilesubstrate from Cyndia. In my case, I had it already, but I do not remember to have installed. I guess, it was installed when I installed Cyndia first time, but not sure.
Does it not effect the tap the home button on the springboard to take you to page 1?
Nope…it dismisses the alert but leaves you on the SpringBoard page you are on. You can then tap your Home Button again to go to the first page.
FYI: I have QuickGold and Backgrounder installed (both of which use the home button) and I also installed this without any problems.
I have both of these programs too and tapping the home button does nothing for me..my sms pop-ups don’t go away when i hit home on a locked screen.
Very odd.
Will be nice to see app witch hide pop ups automatically, without pressing home. Now to hide it we have to buy Intelliscreen or use passcode (works only on SB not LS).
which* ;)
So the original Dismiss Away Items extension also dismissed alerts when your phone is unlocked (not the original intention). To keep with my intentions, I fixed that in Dismiss Away Items.
What I did, though, is also release Quick Dismiss, which does the same thing when the phone is locked AND adds in the dismiss feature when the phone is unlocked.
Take your pick. ;-) Once I get the chance to create preference screens for this extension, I’ll deprecate Dismiss Away Items in favor of Quick Dismiss with a setting to turn it off on either the lock screen or springboard.
I was wondering what the difference was. Thanks :)
