We Fixed The iPhoneSK Bug: For Real This Time
UPDATE 2: It’s Live! Go update right now and go get your plans and the app is chalk full of helpful information. 
Once again, I’m very sorry for the inconvenience and the trouble, we won’t let this happen again.
UPDATE: I have just shipped over the 1.0.2 update that fixes all of the issues you have been experiencing. Optimo and BigBoss have received the updated application and it should be live soon. It can take a matter of minutes or a few hours, depending on how many apps other developers are releasing today.
Alright guys, here’s the 411 on what’s going on. Look, I did correct a bug in the 1.0.1 update that went live a few hours ago. It fixed an MD5 bug.
However, what’s the REAL bug? Nothing. There is no bug at all. The code is perfect. Turns out, the “crashing bug”, isn’t a bug at all. It’s a feature.
Turns out that the iPhoneSK app had our special anti-piracy code in it. You see, it’s now standard protocol here at LEI Mobile to include some sort of anti-piracy code into apps that we send to the App Store. However, since this project was very much kept secret, even internally here at LEI Mobile, the code was mistakenly placed in the app.
Not only that, to stick to our projected launch date, I jumped the gun and forgot to give the code a final look through before I hit that nice looking “build” button in XCode.
So, we are currently giving a 3X pass through to check for any other little things we may have either added or left out.
We will be submitting this final update for this “bug” later today. You should be able to get the update either later tonight or tomorrow morning for sure.
I apologize very sincerely and offer my sincerest apologies for the stupid little mistakes and events that lead to all of these headaches.
All I can say is that I am happy that I found the bug and that it’s being corrected now.
Thank You.

We Fixed The iPhoneSK Bug: For Real This Time
UPDATE: I suspect this issue of the crashing app is on BigBoss’ end. It may be a permissions issue or something to that extent.
As I said, I’m in Chicago right now, and I’m trying all I can do from here.
Guys, we are not offering you a new cellular network. YOU are still gonna be on T-Mobile or whatever network you are on.
The service we are providing UNBLOCKS data service that was otherwise blocked by T-Mobile (sidekick plan) or AT&T (GoPhone plan) (for example).
However, I will be writing a tutorial soon on how to get basically free* phone service from T-Mobile and just having to pay us $98 a year (no, none of this is on contract, this is just over a 12 month period) instead of the $366+ you’d pay T-Mobile per year on the Sidekick plan.

Looks like the iPhone 4G is the real deal! SmartPhoneMedic has received the iPhone 4G LCD, digitizer, and metal middle plate assembly from one of their supplies. SmartPhoneMedic is a pretty well known repair company and has some very good connections to get these pieces early. We see a June/July iPhone refresh of the iPhone every year, so this is also a good indication that the iPhone 4G is being manufactured as we speak. More details will be available at the next WWDC event.
Apple Urges Users Not To Jailbreak In “Support” Section
Well guys, Apple has finally gone off the deep end. They have actually taken the time to write up an article on reasons on why not to jailbreak. The article was created on April 16th of this year. I stumbled on this article after getting a random tip on Twitter.
Well, Apple gives some very stupid reasons to not jailbreak. They state this in regards to jailbreaking:
Unauthorized modification of iPhone OS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

Apple Files For “iTunes LIVE” Trademark
Apparently, today, Apple has filed for the “iTunes LIVE” trademark. Now, there is no clear, official, reason, but I think it’s safe to speculate that Apple will bring live concerts and music events to customers, live, from iTunes.
I expect Apple to bring this to market in Q3 2010 during it’s September music keynote (along with iPad firmware 4.0).

Wow, is all I can say. We have been trying to push this update for weeks now on the App Store. It was rejected many times, left and right, mostly for stupid little things, but finally, the app is live!
So why the big bother with releasing this update? This is a massive change to the LEI Mobile that could be found on the App Store.
First of all, it brings the all new GUI found in the LEI Mobile v4.x series. This includes:
Better GUI
New Services
Many Bug Fixes
Faster
More Stable
Not just that. We also have iPad support. This is our biggest feature. We have been working hard on bringing an all new experience to the iPad. I think the interface is a winner.
It uses this all new dock at the top of the screen that has all of the services available for LEI Mobile, and then it has a full browser-like task bar at the bottom, and your content front and center.
The pages load insanely fast. We focus a lot on speed and performance of our applications, and LEI Mobile v4.1 is amazing.
Also, we have Push Notifications for the iPad version as well. This was one of our major goals for the iPad version, and we’ve got the goods.
LEI Mobile v4.1 is a universal binary. This means that both the iPhone/iPod touch and the iPad versions of the apps are in the same app file. In the same download, which makes it easier on the end-user.
So there you go guys, this is a major update and I encourage everyone to update as soon as you can.
