Alternative to iProtect

Hey

I was hoping someone would be able to help me find out an alternative to iProtect I was using before i upgraded to 5.1.1 from 5.0.1 as the new jailbreak was released and I stupidly forgot to write down all the apps i had before i upgraded

I've been looking all over the net to what it possibly could be and i can't find it but I know its not any of the other usual ones like
  • iprotect
  • applocker
  • applocket
  • locktopus
  • lockdown
  • lockdown pro etc

but the most frustrating thing is that i found the app whilst browsing through forums and I think it was a suggestion on here from someone when I was previously looking for an alternative for iprotect

it had the usually functionality to disable app deletion or to password protect apps, it was fairly simple but very effective

appreciate any help i can get

thanks

FolderLock?

PS: You should install this App Info 1.5 and send a list of installed apps to your email before restore/upgrade.

No, not folderlock either unfortunately

I'm usually quite good at backing up or noting these things down because I take screen pics of all the cydia apps and settings so i have a reference to go to but as this was a new app and not something i had used before i didn't realise i didn't note it down as i usually use the same apps after each firmware upgrade

I only learned about didn't even know pkgbackup until today and that would've come in very useful

I did want to also add that the app i'm looking for did not add an additional app to show up and only was configurable from the settings app, the other likeable attribute was that unlike iprotect when the app icons would 'jiggle' there'd be no X mark or any other icon showing like there are in such as padlocks showing in other apps

I appreciate its difficult but if anyone could list any of the remaining lock app names I'm sure that'll help

thanks again

I just rememberd that whilst the app was,active when you held down on an app to get it into 'jiggle' mode, a message would appear saying " moving or deletion of apps is disabled"..

is applocket compatible with 5.1.1 because whatever it was I used was definitely compatible with 5.0.1

---------- EDIT ----------

i've tried installing applocket via cydia but it keeps timing out and the official one says not sure if compatible?
