RipDev has released his latest beta 5 update for Installer 4.0. To upgrade open Installer on your iPhone and go to the ‘Updates’ section. Remember this program is beta and is still being actively worked on. Early reports are, that not all the kinks have been worked out but much progress has been made.

Here’s what’s new:

  • Many visual enhancements and fixes in regards to source and packages display.
  • Fixed an issue with failing installs with dependencies under some circumstances.
  • Fixed a bug causing package information to be displayed incorrectly (size 0 bytes) on the first access, or when the custom information HTML page (such as packages from Big Boss’ repository) was not displayed.
  • When updating a package, and one of its dependencies also has an update available, the dependency will be updated as well.
  • The package icons will only be downloaded when on the Wi-Fi to help you save on bandwidth.
  • The repositories are being refreshed upon Installer.app launch so you always stay on the bleeding edge with the updates. This is exeperimental behavior and we’re not yet sure it will make it to the final release.
  • Fixed a script command Confirm that was returning invalid button index for the “OK” button.
  • Lots and lots of both cosmetic and internal application core fixes that improve the overall performance, presentation and stability of the application.

installer 4.0 is still very buggy. All of my apple store icons failed to work and itune was malfunction after I installed the fantacy babe “babe of the day”. I had to remove it and everything else downloaded and installed from installer 4 earlier except installer 4 itself to bring back life for my iphone.

Updated to installer 4 beta 5. But now it has become unusable. Every time i launch Installer it hangs trying to refresh the sources; I am left with no option but to quit that too by pressing the Home button for over 6 seconds.
Anybody else facing the same prob.

Don’t worry about it, U r not alone. I and my friend r having problems with the hanging too. The only way to get out is to press the home button. Leave Installer4 alone for now, at least until next upgrade, they relieved it for us to do the experiments for them……good ideas!

I miss the 1st generation Installer so mmmmucchhhhhhhhh!
