I have made the build and I have to send someone.. If he does't have PC or Mac, only he has just iphone. then how can he install build over his iphone. (If it is possible.)
Thanks
You can use the free service of TestFlightApp.
You can use hudson or jenkins to compile your App with every check-in (you are using scm, right?), and hockey for browser-based deployment.
See this blogpost for more informations.
Note: we are using this setup in my company. But I can't give you the codes, as they are the intellectual property of my company.
mandeepd you can use beta builder
check the steps
Using Beta Builder
If his iPhone is jailbroken he can SSH it to /Applications but it would show up as a native/jailbroken app (no delete button in wiggle mode) and with no icon bevel
the excellent way to do this is Beta Builder
Use the procedure from the URL Below to distribute app over the air http://iosdevelopertips.com/xcode/distribute-ad-hoc-applications-over-the-air-ota.html

i'm not an iphone programmer, but this is my problem :
i have the source code of an iPhone application in x-code, i need to upload it in a ftp server to allow my client install and test a pre-release, but i need to add his device id some where in the application to be able to install it in his iPhone, i have the device id but i don't know how to add it in the application.
Can anyone help me please, if you have documentation or good links, send them to me please
Thanks in advance
The best way to do this is to use one of the following services:
https://testflightapp.com/
or
http://www.hockeyapp.net/
These make it much easier to register client devices and install pre-release builds.
you have to sign into Apple Developer Portal and add his device id in the appropriate section then you can use TestFlight with a provisioning profile from the portal to let people use it "pre-release"
I developed an app for my own use.I want to use it on my ipodtouch.I jailbroke my device.But don't know how can i install my app in my device.Can any one give me proper instruction what should be the approach to do this?
Thanks in advance
You can connect to you iphone with WinSCP with username:root password:alpine or dottie. After that go to your Applications Folder on the device, make a new folder name (Whatever you want to call it).app then put all your files in that folder. Highlight them all, and set the permissions to 0755. Restart your phone. And thats it.
The standard way of putting applications on to devices is to sign up to the Apple Developer program.
I found this link specifically for jailbroken devices, but it seems a bit dated.
I have an initial build of my app which I want to circulate for testing to few others who do not have XCode with them. All I want to do is pass them the binary which they will install to their devices using iTunes. I have created my developer certificate, created an app id and added the device udids in my provisioning portal.
So now can I directly email them the binary and ask them to drag and drop into itunes and then on the device ?
Thanks!
I tested it myself and it's amazing: You should try Testflight.
It's a simple to use service (free) that allows you to distribute your adHoc builds easy and fast (might sound like advertising but it's really one of the best tools I came across).
Build archive and it will appear in organizer. There is big Share button that allows you to save ipa file which you pass on to testers.
I want to install other apps within one of my app,just like what appstore does, when you click install and confirm the app starts downloading on the springboard.I had tried with openURL, but seems it does not fulfill my requirements. Is there any other way out to achieve this one.please suggest.
thanks in advance.

The security sandbox on stock OS iOS devices does not allow the installation of other apps. You can only write non-executable files to a few directories within your own apps sandbox.
I'm currently creating an iPhone app and we need some testing with about 20~30 users.
Actually we put the app on our iPhone by connecting the iPhone to the computer and debugging the app.
But now we need to have a more efficient way to install the app on iPhone but without submitting it to Apple Store and also without the need to connect the iPhone to the computer hosting Xcode.
Do you think there is a way to do that ?
Thanks in advance :)
Yeah there's a very slick way to do adhoc distribution under iOS 4 that's outlined here. This method involves absolutely zero usb cables and does not require a jailbroken device either. Perfectly legit and above board.
You need to use AdHoc installation. Please see this nice Apple document, it should cover every step necessary even with step-by-step instructions.
I use www.TestFlightApp.com, it's a great services, not out yet, but recently opened up their beta's, it does all the ad hoc stuff for you alls you need to do is invite testers, let it export it to your dev portal. Then you just upload the ipa to the site, and all your testers get an email.
