Code Genocide

iSteamy was officially rejected from the Apple AppStore.

The rejection email from Apple (which no longer contains an NDA notice at the bottom) states that it was rejected for:

“it contains inappropriate sexual content and is in violation of Section 3.3.12 from the iPhone SDK Agreement which states:
Applications must not contain any obscene, pornographic, offensive or defamatory content or materials of any kind (text, graphics, images, photographs, etc.), or other content or materials that in Apple’s reasonable judgement may be found objectionable by iPhone or iPod touch users.”

This is ANOTHER case of Apple telling you what you can and can not do.

Apple, protect our devices, NOT our morals!

Apple allows R rated movies in iTunes which many of which contain large amounts of nudity. They also allow explicit music in iTunes. They get around this by providing Parental Controls.

So why can’t Apple just add parental controls to more then just games in the AppStore?

Create an Adult section, and even have the parental controls blocking it turned on by default, but allow people to choose.

That’s enough of a soapbox for today.

Just remember that iSteamy is available by Jailbraking your device (which is now extremely easy).

Once your device is Jailbroke, simply add the Code Genocide repository into either Cydia or Installer.

The repo addresses are as follow:

Cydia: http://repo.codegenocide.com/cydia

Installer: http://repo.codegenocide.com

iSteamy version 3.1 is the reason you shouldn’t release a new release right before you go out of town on a business trip.

Version 3.1 fixed a bug where some users could not register, but in the panic to get it released before leaving, ended up introducing a new bug of its own, which affected users when trying to save items or visit the Steam Room.

Version 3.2 has now been released on the repo’s which should fix both issues.

I apologize for the issues.

I have released iSteamy 3.1

This release fixes a bug in the registration and saving process where users were getting errors if a certain directory was missing on their device.

This update is highly recommended for all users.

I am happy to announce that iSteamy version 3.0 for iPhone firmware 2.x is now availble!

To download iSteamy using one of the following repositories.

iSteamy version 3 is now completed and ready for beta testing.

I will be sending out beta details tomorrow (or I guess later today since its after midnight).

So if you want in on the beta please leave a comment or email.

Please only ask if you are serious about BETA testing and not just getting it early.

I need people who will file bugs.

Thank you all for waiting.

Update: The beta is now full. If you did not receive an invite we apologize.
Depending on how the beta goes we might open it up to more people, but hopefully we can just get the beta completed quickly and get it out to everyone.

Thank you for all your support

I thought I would let you all know that iSteamy for firmware 2.x is VERY VERY close to being done!

All that is left is Saving items, and the Password protecting ability.

I REALLY REALLY want to finish this up this weekend, but there is only one day left at I am already on 3am of that day. So we will see what happens.

If not this weekend it will be very soon after, but like I said, I am going to try for this weekend.

I am debating if I should do a full release when its ready or if I should do a limited beta first…

If you have a point-of-view, please leave it in the comments.

(If you vote for a beta, and you wish to be in that beta, also leave your email address or email me and let me know you would like to beta)

I will probably base my decision on your responses, so please let me know.

I thought I would give everyone an update on iSteamy for iPhone firmware 2.x.

Yes it is coming.

When firmware 2.0 came out there were a lot of changes to the frameworks.

Unfortunately most of the things that were changed are things that iSteamy used.

I had it compiling on 2.0 and running, however a lot of things were not working. For example the photos would show but they were not clickable. Then once they were clickable about every other click and some tmies on first clicks the entire program would just crash. Not to mention I was very unhappy with the stability in version 2.0 and now it was WAY worse. It was just not anywhere near being ready for release.

If I had released it then everyone would hate it because it was basically unusable.

So I decided to take on the task of releasing something worth using.

I have therefore started porting iSteamy to the SDK.

No Apple is not likly to let it into the AppStore anytime soon (ok never), but that does not matter…

The changes to the frameworks in firmware 2.0 were to setup for the SDK, and really all SDK apps are at their base are normal 3rd party apps with DRM on them and then ALLOWED (if your lucky). This is aparent by the fact that it is possible to run AppStore apps on jailbraked devices. (Not that this is a good thing)

So once the conversion is over it will be released without the DRM and therefore without the need for the AppStore.

So bad news is its not ready yet, but the good news is once it is ready it should be the best release yet.

I have included some screenshots below.

We are pleased to introduce the iSteamy Private Community.

The iSteamy Private Community is a new way to find all the adult content you could wish for.
Like iSteamy the iSPC thrives on user involvement, and by being Private it keeps the junk away.

We welcome you to the community, and hope to see you around the block.

I just thought I would drop a quick note letting everyone know that iSteamy version 2.0 has officially hit Beta!

I don’t expect this to be a very long beta as testing has been happening all along.
