How to return to music in the official VK app for the iPad without jailbreaking
Ios / / December 23, 2019
Once upon a time in the application for the iPad VK could listen to music. Unfortunately, the time has not come back, as opposed to listening to the music features. The official app for free, without registration and SMS!
I have to say that the way to a difficult but with due attention you will succeed. Its principle is to request the substitution of iTunes with the help of proxy debugger Charles and load any version of the application, not just the most recent. Watch feature music from VK app disappeared after version 2.0, it's something we'll be with you to establish. For such is possible and zamorochitsya agree? Then proceed.
Step 1
load utility Charles (Windows-version is also available). She paid, but there is a trial period, we will be sufficient. Install, run it and enter the administrator password for the proxy settings.
step 2
Open iTunes and start downloading applications that you want to roll back, and suspend downloading.
step 3
We go back to Charles. We find a string Sequence tab
pHH-buy.itunes.apple.com (XX - a two-digit number changes with each request) and by calling the right click menu, we press Enable SSL Proxying.step 4
Remove the application from the download, go back to his page and update it. download button will become active again, and the word will be replaced with the "Loading" on "Download".
step 5
We begin to download and cancels the download again.
step 6
In Charles find that appears below the line pHH-buy.itunes.apple.com (A globe icon and not the castle), disclose it and select the file buyProduct.
step 7
Make a right click on buyProduct, we press the pop-up menu, Export and save it in any convenient location by XML Summary File Format.
step 8
Now we open our XML-a file in any text editor and find the line softwareVersionExternalIdentifiers. Under it will be a long (or not) a list of identifiers which are responsible for downloading one or another version. Above - the oldest, and below, respectively, the latter. Required version will have to pick up empirically. Copy one of the identifiers, and proceed to the next step.
step 9
Go back to Charles, again, we do a right click on buyProduct and choose Edit, to change the ID.
step 10
Switch to the Text tab and replace the numbers in a string appExtVrsId the ID that you copied in the eighth step. Hit Execute.
step 11
A file will be a new buyProduct edited contact file, which immediately and will be opened. We are looking at it line bundleShortVersionStringImmediately below it is the application version number. Check with them and repeat the procedure until you find the desired (for iPad -15954085), if necessary. I was lucky, I guess the second time.
step 12
Now do a right click on the newly created file and hit buyProduct Breakpoints.
step 13
Again back in iTunes, we update the page with the application and start the download. We will transfer immediately to popup Charles, where we propose to modify the query.
step 14
Switch to Edit Request tab in the XML Text mode and change the identifier to the one identified in the 11th step. Hit Execute.
step 15
You will see another pop-up window. There is nothing we do not change, but simply we press Execute.
step 16
Back in iTunes, and see that our application is downloaded. And it is not the latest version, namely the one that we need!
step 17
To check this, open the application properties on the tab "My Software". As you can see, the year 2015 stands first, but version 2.0, released in 2012.
step 18
It remains to connect the iPad using the cable and install the application.
That's all. We got what we wanted. VK 2.0 works perfectly on iOS 9.2, it does not take off, and, of course, allows you to listen to your music in the app and in the background.
As you know, the same thing can be done with absolutely any application. The main thing that it was in the App Store. If the application is removed from the store, or the developer Apple - nothing, alas, will not work.
Difficult? I would not say. Long? Also no need for half an hour (although you can manage and faster). Is it worth it? Well, it's up to you!
