ipeq activation issues

If you're encountering problems during activation (well, they only happen if you firstly try to use ipeq without license), then try removing the /var/mobile/Library/Application Support/ipEQ directory.

Why? I'm also not quite sure about it.
ipEQ creates this directory (license file will be stored later in it), obviously as mobile:mobile (because Music.app runs as mobile). However, if the server returns a "No payment" error, nothing will be stored in it and the user may try to quit Music.app. Then somehow this directory becomes root:wheel. I don't know why exactly this is happening, but it might be kind of a security feature in iOS to chown suspicious, empty directories to root.

finalizing builds

Many of you already asked me when I'm going to push out some updates to ipEQ and BatteryInfo.
So I'm giving a clear statement now.

I had some problems with backward compatibility, but I was able to solve them.
