How do you backup apps on a jailbroken ipad?

If you jailbreak an iPad and download some apps from Cydia, how do you back them up? An itunes sync can't do it, right?

Re: How do you backup apps on a jailbroken ipad?

Thanks for the pointer. Unfortunately, it looks like lots of people have had problems with it. Most of the comments are almost 2 years old, though, so it might be better now. Or, OTOH, it might not be suitable for an ipad and the newer OS. Guess that will take some more looking into.

Either way, it says it doesn't back up the apps, it just generates an automated list of them, which can (theoretically) be used to automatically re-download them. At least one shortcoming of this is if you happen to have an app that is subsequently made unavailable for download. If you don't have a copy somewhere, there would be no way to get it again,

Also, does anyone know, how is purchase/registration handled? i.e. if I Restore an iPad to factory settings, jailbreak it again, download the apps again, how does it know not to charge me again? This was the other thing I was thinking about in terms of somehow backing the apps up somehow on your computer... to assure they are available but also to assure you don't have to pay for them again.

When you register an App in Cydia, you do so by giving your email address. They also check your Pay-Pal account, I Think.

It depends on the app, but several I have purchased are tied to your device at the time of purchase either with your mobile number or your device ID. When you re-download the file it checks your device ID and if it matches, you are good to go.

A Cydia alternative is Rock - if you make a purchase with your Rock ID, it will remember your purchase.

Method 2. Automatic

Use a readymade app that does exactly that. Best apps are: AptBackup (free), PkgBackup ($2), AppBackup(free, backup App Store apps) to exactly that automatically.
AptBackup [from BigBoss repo] will make a list of your installed apps and put it in a location under the iTunes backup. So, when you sync on iTunes, the file is stored with the backup. So when you restore you phone, you just reinstall AptBackup and it will reinstall all apps back on to the phone.

You can also set it up for phone and use it as a template for setting up others with one click.

Although it will NOT, back up the actual app or its settings. Backup your springboard file placement. It’s not On demand restore. It’s only for restoring after a fresh iTunes installation.
