That's certainly a possibility, but I didn't overlook it. It's obvious that he got the cracked version of the app and now he has to update his legit apps manually instead of using "Update All" (even though it'd work anyway, but he doesn't know that). Infer from his wording that he doesn't/can't update his cracked app.
Quoting myself, "Also, you're wrong, like most of the people on this board who post what they THINK is true based on wrong assumptions."
1. You DO, it's when the cracking script used doesn't remove the original, legit metadata.
2. You CAN make the update notification go away on cracked apps by downloading MetadataRemovr from Cydia, ALSO posted above.
