    [Discussion] Why Andy Wiiks & Packix are not to be trusted.

    Posted: 03 Apr 2018 07:11 AM PDT

    For the mods: I sincerely hope this post does not get deleted by the mods, some of whom have a personal and business relationship with Andy Wiiks. This post follows all rules, as it was confirmed a few weeks ago calling out developers is allowed.

    I've created a snapshot in case the mods do delete this post and essentially back Andy Wiiks over the right for this community to know what he did and does.


    Andy Wiiks & Packix have become quite a hot topic in the last 2 weeks, and it's safe to say both are not very popular in this community at the moment.

    There are several reasons why you should not trust Andy Wiik, Packix & iOS Creatix, I will list 6 of them. Some reasons have already been posted in other posts, but this post summarizes.


    1. Andy Wiiks scammed people for thousands of dollars.

    Even though Andy admitted scamming people (could not deny as there is plenty of Proof (Below), his response is 'I was a kid'. That's far from an excuse in my opinion.

    This happened just 3 years ago. I know LaughingQuoll said it happened years ago, but in my opinion, 3 years ago isn't that long.

    He didn't stop because he felt sorry about scamming multiple people, he stopped because he was found out.

    What he did was sell $500 gift cards on reddit. When the user bought them, he would SE amazon into believing the card had been lost or stolen. Amazon would refund him $500 on top of the 500 he already made from selling the gift card. When amazon refunded him, the gift cards were deactivated, so the person who bought them for $500 lost the entire $500 they spent on it, and Andy Wiiks walked away with $1000 that was scammed from both Amazon and the person buying the gift card.

    When it was found out, and said he was leaving the community for personal reasons.

    It seems the mods deleted comments (correct me if I'm wrong mods?) that linked to the thread where Andy was exposed as scammer.

    Proof 1: https://www.reddit.com/r/giftcardexchange/comments/2lmxzl/psa_another_scam/

    Proof 2 https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/2lnh95/i_think_i_have_an_idea_on_why_andrew_wiikk_quit/

    Proof 3 Moderator of the reddit where /u/atwiiks scammed people: 'This was not just a spur of the moment thing. This was premeditated, planned and executed' https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/2lnh95/i_think_i_have_an_idea_on_why_andrew_wiikk_quit/clwguor/

    Recent Scam? https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/89e5kl/discussion_why_andy_wiiks_packix_are_not_to_be/dwqn32o/?context=3&st=JFK7HISB&sh=52084819


    2. Andy's response to paying customers

    Packix, Andy Wiiks attempt to become a store and not have to give money to Cydia/Saurik has had many problems, especially when linking devices. This is unacceptable as these people paid for tweaks, but cannot download them. When asking Andy to fix his system he replies 'and it's easter so screw off'

    If you after scamming people for thousands of dollars, have a store set up and somehow got people to trust you with their money, you should NOT tell them to screw off when your system causes them to not get what they paid for.

    3. _aesign, the designer on iOS Creatix, seems to have left Creatix and the jailbreak community because of Andy Wiiks.

    I don't know why, but it shows that even in the team Andy works in he treats others like shit.

    4. Packix is essentially a ripoff of Hashbang's Chariz payment system.

    5. Andy lures people to his patreon

    to get them to support him, promising tweaks, but rarely finished on his promises.

    6. Almost all tweaks Packix / iOS Creatix release are incredibly bug ridden.

    $3 for a tweak in slightly on the expensive side in this community (I'm just giving this as a fact, not arguing about the value), but almost all tweaks seem to he in early beta state rather than actual finished tweaks you can ask people money for.

    7 Edit: Removed comment about Andy earning a percentage since it was not correct.

    All in all, Andy Wiiks, Packix and iOS Creatix are things that in my opinion, you should not trust. Andy Wiiks especially. I don't have any issues with LaughingQuoll or _aesign, and I feel sorry they get sucked into and associated with the shit Andy pulls time after time.

    Remember, this guy stopped with scamming people because he was found out, not because he felt guilty. DON'T TRUST Andy Wiiks.

    [Discussion] Patreon IS NOT supposed to be a store

    Posted: 03 Apr 2018 07:09 AM PDT

    I'm looking at you, Spark Dev. Your tweaks are amazing, yes, but ONLY available to Patreons. No one else can buy individual tweaks. This is not what Patreon is supposed to be for, according to you and the other deva that have explained its purpose on this sub. It's to let Patreons have early access/Beta test. Then the tweaks would be released later on a normal repo for everyone else to use/buy.

    Posted: 03 Apr 2018 05:41 PM PDT

    This is a beta build of OptiX it has a couple bugs but I wanted to give everyone a chance to try it out. And get some feedback.

    It is tested and compatible with Eclipse and Noctis. The Control Center stuff is NOT compatible with Haystack for obvious reasons.

    No floating dock support yet.

    Respring twice the first time

    Features:

    Color Control Center, Folders (set separate colors for closed and expanded) and Dock.

    All colors have alpha (transparency) adjustments

    Hide page dots, folder blur, statusbar from cc, and folder labels

    Respring button in settings

    Coming Up:

    Color cc buttons and sliders, banners, lock screen and notification screen

    Hide spotlight and whatever other suggestions arise

    I am not charging for this tweak, I have a donation link in it and below here if you like my work consider donating what you think it's worth. Thanks for your support.

    [Question] What free tweaks do you recommend installing on iOS 11?

    Posted: 03 Apr 2018 06:13 PM PDT

    First time jail breaking since iOS 6-7. I've tried looking through the Escape Plan but it seems outdated, at least for iOS 11. Looking mainly for tweaks that can add useful features, or let me customize my phone. I'd especially like to hear if there are any free alternatives to Lock Plus Pro. Thanks!

    [News] AdBlocker 2 and Firewall iP7 ready for iOS 10.x

    Posted: 03 Apr 2018 03:35 AM PDT

    Yeah, I know, not what everyone probably wanted to hear, but it occurred to me that I forgot to update the descriptions for both tweaks when I fixed them for iOS 10.x long long time ago. So for anyone who was using them and didn't install them on iOS 10: You can. Apologies for that.

    Regarding iOS 11: I currently don't have a jail breakable device for iOS 11 :( If I should be able to get one, I'll test and update those two tweaks.

    [Request] I have over 3000 numbers blocked

    Posted: 03 Apr 2018 04:29 PM PDT

    Is there a File I can edit them out of?

    iOS freezes every time I look at the blocked list, and I can't mass unblock, what sucks is it's all stored in iCloud.

    I am hoping a local change, would push to iCloud.
