Due to recent reports from different sources Comex creates Cydia alternative. Last month there were talk about iMods, the store for jailbroken iOS devices. In case, you’re new to the jailbreak community then Comex was the developer behind JailbreakMe and Spirit, which became one of the easiest jailbreaks ever to be launched, as it let users to jailbreak their iPhone using mobile Safari, without the computer. The hacker hasn’t been active on the jailbreaking scene ever since he got hired by Cupertino giant . Though he later left Apple, and started to work for search giant Google. As it become known that a well-known hacker Nicholas Allegra a.k.a Comex is helping the iMods team. iMods is very similar to Cydia, but it doesn’t have a Substrate yet and of course without it the tweaks will just not work. Cydia Substrate is what helps tweaks tire to apps and do all the work. It makes it easy to modify software, even without the source code, and in a way that lets users to easily choose which changes they want. The creator of Cydia Saurik, aka Jay Freeman, keeps the rights to Cydia Substrate and will not give out the code. That's why the need for an alternative Substrate for iMods now arose. Saurik gave his reasons in the article vs Comex. The last has explained the reasons for working on a Cydia Substrate substitute. He stated that jailbreaking is the process of taking something closed and fixed and opening it up to hacking and modification. Yes, Saurik doesn’t support Comex creates Cydia alternative. Since Substrate is closed source, the hacker wants to make a software that will be open, which is actually the whole thing behind jailbreaking an iOS device. Apple company gives limited ability to users, which can be overcome by jailbreaking.
