Sideload.it - sideload any BAR files for FREE (no computer needed!!!)
-
Registration is not the solution, that will just make it easier to identify the abuser, not prevent it.
The solution is to be able to have sideload.it service not forward traffic. Then the VPN connection is purely for installation, not for malicious purposes since people can't use it for anything other than bar installation.07-17-15 07:51 PMLike 0 - That was amazon who had zero tolerance for certain bad traffic. Usually, the VPS provider will turn off NIC, alert the user, user acknowledges problem solved, provider turns back on NIC. Service back up.

The issue was that the VPS provider disabled the network on the machine and so he can turn it on and off and reformat it, but that is it. Seems weird that that's how a provider would handle it, but I suppose they all do it differently!

Today 14-09-2015 it was not available.
I have been looking for info to get an Android IOS or Android apps active on my BB Playbook.
Any info or links to the latest on this?
I have tried the DDPB tools by GoodEreader.
But converting some apps from APK to BAR gave me no working apps. Was looking to get CoPilot to work.
Maybe some of you know about good APK to BAR converters? Tried a few but all result in some kind of error message when trying to use/unpack the app.
Tracking info on running and Android OS on BB Playbook is a dead end. Most info is outdated and confusing. XDA-developer forums go silent around 2013. Other info talks about the current BB phones around.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers, Jan.

EDIT, removed links, not allowed as this is my first post here. Sorry.09-14-15 01:33 PMLike 0 - I am not planning to bring the site back online. CloudAtCost, where the VPS instance was hosted, just destroyed my VPS claiming it was causing trouble to a couple of dozens of other clients. 2 weeks of support tickets and claims resulted in nothing. They just buried 2 websites of mine. I did have a backup copy of Sideload.it website, but it was a bit outdated. Now if anyone is willing to bring the service back, I will be glad to provide the backup copy I have. Also, if anyone needs the source code of the client app, let me know. As an option, I can publish it on Github.
Sorry, guys. This project was good once it worked. Yet, for 10.3.x it looks lame and I do not have enough time to dig further into why it is not working properly via VPN, while it works fine locally when the device is in the same real, but not virtual network.09-15-15 04:19 AMLike 0 - Okay so after discussing with Rebelllious, we potentially have a plan. However it's dependent on how much you guys want this back up and running!
Anyone with dev experience and a BlackBerry running 10.3.1+ wanting to help try to figure out why the PB tools won't work via VPN, please reply to this thread! (I don't check PM's often because it's a pain since the BlackBerry10 CB app doesn't do that)
If we can get a plan in place, I'll gladly get the serverside portion back up and running!

I don't know anything about sideloading and I don't have a computer so I am looking for what this offered. Definitely following this post.09-15-15 09:58 PMLike 0
- Yeah, it just works on the test server. Follow us for further updates as we are planning to make it running for public again.

- It's a service, not simply an app. And yes, it does sideloading with no computer needed. Read the first post.

No such issues observed by me or reported by CAC and I've been running more Centos 7 servers than the older Centos 6 ones for longer now. So if you're now using Centos 7, I'd say the issue won't resurface.D3C0D3R likes this.09-29-15 01:36 PMLike 1 - I had no experience with CentOS 7 till now. Can you help me rewrite the Github installation scripts to fit the new OS? If so, we could move to CentOS 7 then...
Anyway, thanks for your input concerning CAC. Seems like I was not the only one hit by this...
Posted via CB1009-29-15 01:42 PMLike 0 - OK, good news. The new server is at the final test stage. Fortunately for us and unfortunately for freebie seekers, VPN will only allow people to connect to the server for remote installation of bar files. This means there will be no Web surfing through VPN. When the previous server was active, people surfing the Web were a headache. Now headache has gone
Will keep you updated.
Posted via CB1010-08-15 01:35 PMLike 2 - Okay we've tried Rebelllious's new server with various tests and it's shaping up really well. There's some minor changes needing to be made and then some instructional stuff, so keep your eyes peeling on this thread within the next few days!

- Still doesn't work for me either on my Passport running 10.3.2.2789 OR my Playbook. Just will not connect to vpn. Sideload.it has never worked for me for some reason. (Yes, I have carefully configured the vpn etc etc etc)10-12-15 11:42 PMLike 0
