I have purchased all my apps, and paid themes through Cydia. I've recently seen the Appsidy is no longer going to be used through Cydia.

I'd like to start using rock in that case for my theme purchases and app purchases.

My question is how do I transfer my licenses to Rock from Cydia for eveything I purchased. I have tried going to licenses under Rock and nothing seems to transfer.


Thanks in advance.
 
it's like asking

it's like asking I bought all my stuff at Walmart but they no longer carrying it. Can I transfer my receipts and get help from K-mart? I would email the Developer and ask him for advise. or you can try to contact Saurik and ask him but he has been very bust lately. I am not sure how fast he will respond.

Slightly different than that, but I see the slight point of the analogy. I just assumed the licenses should be the same because it's the same package.

Would anyone happen to know how people are going to purchase packages on Cydia now then?
 
I know with MyWi purchased thru Rock it can be downloaded and installed again with Cydia.
But I dont think its possible with every Rock app out there. The particular app developer would have to make that possible on their end. You should try asking them to see what they say.
 
I'm a developer with a few packages on Appsidy. Here's an email they sent to developers:

Dear Appsidy Dev,
*
We regret to message you that we have decided to shutdown the Appsidy service - as we're no longer able to server users within Cydia.** We greatly apologize for the inconvenience, but we do have a transition plan to support your customers and ensure your works remain for sale, and your users continue to have access to downloads they have purchased.
*
User Purchases:
There will be two options for users to obtain their previous purchases:
*
1) Rock Store: Users using Google account/rock id -- These users will be able to login to Rock and simply install their package from there (assuming your package is available in the Rock Store).
2) Cydia Store: Developers who migrate their packages into Cydia Store -- the Cydia Store will perform a lookup against our database and those who have purchased in the past will retain their license.
*
*
For Developers who's products are not available in the Rock Store:
1) Login to your account at http://developer.rockyourphone.com (you can login with your appsidy developer login).* You simply need to click manage product and upload your new images.
*
To signup your package with Cydia Store:
- Please contact the repo owner you've been working with.* They can get you setup in Cydia Store.
*
Thank you again for your business and consideration.* We hope you have enjoyed our service.
*
Appsidy Team

This has nothing to do with saurik's Cydia Store. The Cydia Store will continue to operate normally. This only affects packages sold through Appsidy.
