USB Drive 1.3 for the iOS 7 alpha

I just updated USB Drive in the repository for the version 1.3 alpha.

Version 1.3 the only version which expected to work with iOS 7.x.x and it work this this version of iOS only. We also got new icon, ipad interface and great internal redevelopment to resolve old problems.

Sure, we've got new :)

  • Requires iOS 7.0.x. It will not work on previous version of iOS due to API changes. I will need to backport iOS 7 changes to support iOS 6 and earlier. 
  • Drive Only mode doesn't work and disabled. 
  • In many cases only the very first volume is recognized by host system. USB Drive may miss GET_MAX_LUN USB Mass Storage class request in iOS 7.0 which must be handled correctly to support multi volume configuration
  • I recommend to re-create all volumes which were created in USB Drive 1.2. The upgrade path with reasonable defaults exists, but wasn't fully tested.
This is alpha quality release, please expect (and report) bugs. I do not recommend to install this alpha version to anyone who isn't familiar with ssh command line interface.

i created a new volume but couldn't see it on pc.

any chance of making this able to export the root file system or the iTunes control area? this would make it possible to use this in a USB car audio system

Root because I wouldn't be able to unmount it for exclusive access, User data - probably

Can I move files to the new volume from within the device itself?

Hi,

The installation of the current version through Cydia didn't work for me in that the drive doesn't appears on my Mac. It said I have to manually uninstall the drive. But I have lost the memory . So no gains but iphone now less capacity.
How do I restore my memory back or delete what appears to be hidden drives?

Thank
