  1. well....this just makes your iphone work like a computer. So if you don't have premium account for megavideo, the limit still applies.

  2. I heard that JailBreak is illegal and creates problems for iPod Touch and iPhones.

  3. jailbreak is not illegal, it just add another applet on the iphone or ipod touch to use third parties applications. Although, jailbreak unlocks the possibility to use crack/hacked apple applications and that is illegal

  4. I think apple just can't accept the fact that, third party developers can make better use of the device

  8. Hi Coconuthead, my ipod can only hear the sound but can not see any image. I am currently using ipod 3.0 with the iMobile Cinema 2.2.2763 version. Please Help.

  9. As of right now, this method to view megavideo shows are not available for 3.0 firmware yet. The developers need some time to re-package the video codec for 3.0 firmware. Just give them a little bit more time.

  14. J'ai eesyayé d'entrer "d.mobilecinema.com" mais sa ne marche pas je compren pas pourquoi il ya marquer Bad URL

    ReplyDelete
  15. It's imobilecinema , not mobilecinema in the sources. Also, the new videos are being encoded differently so this app is useless for those. Tooo bad i wanted my tv shows n adult entertaintment closer to me :p

  21. DOES THIS WORK ON 3.1.2 ? ANSWER YOU MOTHERFUCKER

    ReplyDelete
  22. megavideo automatically redirects me to another site. how do i get around this?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Para solucionar lo del redireccionamiento de megaupload hay que agregar un Add-on para SBSettings llamada User Agent Faker, la instalas a través de cydia, ya viene por defecto y no tienes que instalar source, buscas uafaker. En sbsettings activas uafaker y reinicias ipod/iphone.
    Lo extraño es que en los vídeos actuales sólo reproduce audio, los antiguos perfectos.
    Otra source para imobilecinema:
    http://cydia.xsellize.com
    Saludos

  24. i installed the uafaker but I can't get it activated with sbsettings.. please advise

    ReplyDelete
  27. i cant even get to any megavideo video. i get redirected to some jejshare mobile website. do you think thats something megavideo did to stop mobile users from accessing their videos?

    ReplyDelete
  28. @all who get redirected from megavideo, this is because megavideo is blocking users it detects as a mobile device. You will need to install "UAFaker" (google it) on your iPhone so that you trick Megavideo into thinking you are accessing the site via Mozilla Firefox.

    ReplyDelete
  29. i installed sbsettings, ua faker and i stil get redirected to jejshare..anyone?

    ReplyDelete
  30. i can see the video but it says that there is no volume avaiable how do i fix this??

    ReplyDelete
  31. hey i keep getting bad url as well and it comes up with it everytime i open cydia. what should i do? thanks loads for the help!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hi there! In megavideo it is that - megavideo blocked mobiles in movies that was uped ~2008-2009-in these moves you can only hear a sound. But older movies works great. J dont know where is border of new or old move but this is near 2008. We must hope that, developers solve that proplem in new up or new app. I sorry for my bad english, j m from poland. Greet

    #2 You dont need to add this source. Just searh imobile cinema in cydia. :)

    ReplyDelete
  33. the reason you are receiving bad url is because the actually source URL is http://d.imobilecinema.com not http://d.mobilecinema.com its just a typo
