I'm trying to run Instruments on an iPhone app that I've compiled as debug, self signed (no developer license), and copied to the phone.

If I select run with with Instruments from Xcode, first the Organizer will complain that the app is already installed, and Instruments doesn't do anything. If I try to go directly from Instruments, my app is not listed the in pull-down menu of available processes.

Oh, and I can't run the app in the simulator because the dylib that I'm using is compiled for ARM, and if I select the simulator (which changes the architecture to i386), the source will fail to compile.

Any thing obvious that I'm missing?

  • What do you mean by 'without developer license'? Aren't you enrolled in the iOS Developer Program? – Julio Gorgé Feb 23 '11 at 17:45
  • I am signed up so I can access the SDK and documentation. However, I don't have an official developer signature with which to sign my apps. – Adam Jones Feb 23 '11 at 17:50

Unfortunately, you need to be enrolled in the iOS Developer Program (yearly paid subscription) in order to sign and run applications on your testing devices. The only alternative to avoid paying is to go the jailbreak route (which I won't provide details about, despite being legal in some countries such as the US).

  • My phone is jailbroken, and I can self sign and run the app just fine on my phone. I'm just trying to run instruments to check for any leaks and where to optimize. – Adam Jones Feb 23 '11 at 18:13
