I have tried 3 different hacks.
None of them block the iPad version of DirecTV #
I know the optimum app detects it by checking to see if you have an app called cydia on your device, I bypassed it by going into the file system (ssh or Ifile) and going to the folder where it has cydia.app, not the folder with AppStore apps the one with all the apps that are jailbreak apps or default apps. Rename cydia, to whatever, I did cydia1 and it worked. Cydia's name doesn't even change on the springboard either so it has no drawbacks. Idk if it would work here but go ahead and try it.
