How to install Installous cracked apps on Iphone 3.0 OS

There are minor changes to installous on iphone 3.0. Follow the steps below as usual to get the installous up and running  from cydia. You need a jailbreaked iphone and cydia of course. If you do not know what are they well google is your friend.

  1. Open Cydia, tap on "Manage" at the bottom
  2. Tap on "Sources"
  3. Tap on "Edit" on top right then tap on "Add" on top left
  4. Type in http://cydia.hackulo.us Cydia will warn you about copyright information just tap ok
    1. hackuolo.us repository is very crowded and they lack donations so it is down very ofthen. You may try the new brotherhood project repository http://cydia.install0us.com/. That is a ZERO not an O
  5. Wait for repo to be added and updated.
  6. From search or hackulo.us repo directory
  7. Install Appsync for OS 3.0 do not install miPatch on os 3.0! If you do not download then sync cracked apps from PC/MAC/iTunes you may skip this step.
  8. Install Installous
  9. Restart your phone
  10. Launch installous and have free fun.

Thats it, simple tap steps.

Appsync will allow you to sync the hacked apps through itunes, otherwise it will give out invalid application signature error.

For downloading from PC and syncing your apps with iTunes use www.appulo.us

Appulous is a free iTunes App Store in short created by people by sharing their applications from all over the world.

Troubleshooting

If you experience any problems during the installation or application installation steps, you may try this checklist.

  1. Perform update on all cydia related packages. It will ask you to update first, do not skip it and update.
  2. Do not forget to restart your phone
  3. Install a free application from app store like "facebook" before installing applications from installous
  4. First select download, wait for it to finish (100% complete) then tap "Downloads" section and install. If you do not see your app in that directory, then it is not complete yet. Double tapping on download may corrupt your downloaded file.
  5. Make sure the file you are downloading works fine. Sometimes cracked apps may fail, so try another application or package to make sure everything works fine before searching for help.
  6. If you encounter problems during application installation like package or executable not found etc make sure the following packages exists in your cydia, if not install them or re-install them to make sure everything is solid and packages are not corrupt. Installouse is dependent on these sub package libraries.
    1. Erica Utilities
    2. core utils
    3. grep
    4. Darwin CC Tools
    5. UUID Generator
    6. unzip
    7. gawk
    8. Curl (not sure if it was listed on packages but installous dependent)

If you still can not manage to solve your problem, drop a comment below including your problem. Me or someone else will try to help you for sure.

FAQ from Jackian about installous & install0us

Ok first of all a short summary of the whole thing, then some more in detail questions and answers

One day a developer named puy0 started work on a project called Installous 1.0, he was a part of Hackulous and was releasing it with support from Hackulous. This 1.0 version did nothing but install .ipa's you'd placed in its folder. And then before we know it along comes version 2.0, it allowed downloading from Appulous and then installing it directly on your device.

Now there was a big long wait time after version 2.0 while puy0 thought of what he could do in Installous 2.5 and 3. He finally began work on Installous 2.5. Now at this time there were lots of things going on among the staff. Eventually puy0 couldn't take the rivalry and arguments and split from Hackulous. He renamed Installous to Install0us and made his own site install0us.com http://install0us.com/

2.5 went into beta on his site, the testers were a mix of donators and handpicked well known community members (I was included). The new app was way better than 2.0 and soon it was released publicly. Then work began on version 3, Install0us 3 BETA1 really was a breakthrough. It had native searching for apps and an update notifier. Then along came BETA2. BETA2 was even more amazing, in the apps that you came to, people could make "plugins" that added little buttons to search for that app on other sites or in some cases go directly to it!

Ok Q&A time and also some app descriptions!

Installous 2.x.x

Great app that surfs Appulous and lets you easily download and install .ipa's

Where can I get it? From the official Hackulo.us cydia source, http://cydia.hackulo.us/

Install0us 2.5

Complete rewrite of Installous with a completely different much better install method and also the ability to download multiple apps at the same time and select the site you wish to browse.

Where can I get it? From the official Install0us.com cydia source, install0us.com, http://cydia.install0us.com/

Install0us 3 BETA2

Supports "plugins" allowing you to on finding an update tap on a number of .ipa sites to search them for the update

puy0 decided to make Install0us 3 BETA2 available as a public beta for a limited time. Please note that if you are one of the people with the Christmas open BETA, it will auto expire soon.

Where can I get it? It's currently in BETA testing, if you're a tester login to http://install0us.com and read the Beta forum for instructions on getting it.

I heard about this Christmas BETA thing, what is it?

puy0 decided to make Install0us 3 BETA2 a public beta for a limited time at Christmas. Enjoy using it because it will self expire very soon!

HaHa! You're all silly! I have this awesome leaked BETA copy!

Guess what? On launching a leaked copy your UDID (Unique Device Identifier) is recorded and banned from using the public versions of Install0us 3 when it becomes available! Also that version will expire soon that you have so enjoy it.

So which should I get?

Completely up to you, Install0us is more up to date and offers more features, but Installous 2 is nice and easy to use so ideal for beginners.

Can I get both apps?

Sure, they won't conflict with each other so feel free to install both

  1. thanks man! highly appreciated.

  2. hey, I keep getting this strange error – and it’s because I didn’t follow your instructions. I installed Installous before AppSync, which they updated 2x’s since I downloaded it yesterday.
    Here’s the error I get: /var/cache/apt/archives/ifoneguide.nl_0-9_iphoneos-arm.deb
    trying to overwrite ‘/Applications/Cydia.app/Sources/cydia.ifoneguide.nl.png’, which is also in package cydia

    and before that: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

    any ideas?

  3. @chandlervdw

    I can see possible reasons.

    Currently hackulo.us is down due to server failure and extreme overload. That may be the reason for those errors. You may want to try again later when they are fully up and running.

    AppSync only enables the iTunes sync, if you do not download from pc then sync to your phone (which I never do, I directly download and install from installous ) you are fine without it.

    I m not an mac OS and iphone expert but your error string is connected with cydia, not with installous. Maybe updating essential cydia updates can resolve it?

    • hey i got my phone upgrade to 3.0.1 and everything works good until i add the hackulo or the installous one of them but when I install it my phone is crash do you know what the problem could be is it my phone the upgrade firmware or i can’t use it no more help please…..

      • There is no structural difference between 3.0 and 3.0.1 except the SMS fix. Instead of updating 3.0.1, make a clean restore of 3.01 (deleting everything) then try

  4. Thanks alot man, was looking for these steps!
    U R THE MAN

  5. i try to install but when i download any app it got stuck at 100% , then i push in download section again by myself, and then installation give me message “unable to find executive” and like nothing happend . so cant install no app at all :(

  6. @disco

    If download goes to 100% you do not click on download again. You go to downloads section then select the file you downloaded and tap on it to install. You tried to overwrite the package and installous tried to install an empty package.

  7. @ cenOTapH

    and when i do that , install starts … go to for example 75% (after decopresing and some other messages) and then said unable to find exetucive , and nothing happens .

  8. @disco

    Does this happen with only one application you are trying or with all of them? If it is with one then it means package maybe broken if with all of them maybe one of your installous sub libraries (zlib, pckg etc) can be corrupt. Uninstall “installous” via cydia and restart your phone then make a clean installation.

    You can try adding apps via iTunes also so you can find really where the problem is.

  9. cenOTapH

    this happens with all applications , i tryed 6-7 apps . i will try reinstall and via itunes . tnx for help for now . hope will work ;)

  10. After installing appsync my iphone is dead..yippie. It keeps rebooting..

  11. @marco

    Sorry to hear man, but what you gonna do this is an hack on an a crappy apple product. My phone acts funny even with production software most of the times.

    Try unistallation of appsync maybe?

  12. @cenOTapH Love my phone and apple products. This is just bad luck of the new 3.0 software.
    Now I’m restoring with the original software. Then I use Quickpwn and an old FW to enter DFU mode and restore with an custom FW 3.0. Works fine, but now I’m busy for the next 5 hours on my free lazy sunday ;-)

    Greetings

  13. @marco

    I say unistall the appsync and enjoy your sunday :) but its ur choice

  14. @cenOTapH.. lol not possible, because it keeps rebooting. I cannot access my iphone, winscp and Itunes don’t detect it, so it was really damaged.
    Wenn I start up, I see the apple, then its black for 30 sec and it reboots and so on.

    But a jailbroken 3.0 is now again on my phone.. thanks anyway

  15. Perfect! Everything seems to have worked out fine. *Happy Face*

  16. Perhaps I misunderstand one thing. First I install Installd from Cydia, after a reboot I install Appsync.
    Because Installd works fine, do I need to install Appsync? Or can I only install Appsync (no Installd!!) Because, perhaps thats the problem wenn the both of them are on my iphone?

  17. @marco

    If you do not use Itunes to sync your “Applications” from your pc or mac etc.. You do not need to install AppSync. You can download and install cracked iphone applications directly from installous.

    You can try to use only AppSync also without installing “installous”. Maybe it will work fine but I have my doubts.

  18. I’m getting an error everytime I install anything from the Hackulo.us source. I get “Size Mismatch” :S ! Any idea what’s wrong ?

  19. Thanks for helping!! The only thing I want is download ipa’s on OS 3.0 and sync them in Itunes. Will only Installd do?

    I only use Installous to watch new ipa’s and @ my work I download ipa’s, SSH them in user/media/download or so and install them in Installous.

  20. @Shadi

    Hackulo.us repo is currently lagged and most of the times is down due to server overload. Give it some time or try at relatively free times like 0 AM till 6 AM while most of the people are sleeping.

    Try to install some other application/theme/ringtone or something else from other repository via cydia. If you still receive the same error, then you should update your dependent packages for cydia itself.

  21. @marco

    Any sync process from PC to phone will require AppSync to be installed. Otherwise you will receive signature errors.

    The SSH method will work fine and you wont need Appsync at all. Just be careful to uncheck “sync applications” on iTunes when syncing your phone.

    Just a note for other users:

    Installous is like a free app store, you can browse, download, install directly from your phone. As long as you have a wireless to connect with your iPhone, you never need iTunes app sync.

  22. Dude I’m getting a Hash sum error. When I install the source itself, it comes out as a question mark [the hackulo.us logo]. Even inside the source, Installous is also a question mark !
    Is there something wrong with my source ?

  23. @Shadi

    If you receive the size mismatch or Hash sum error IN EVERY APPLICATION you try to download via cydia, problem occurs from cydia. If it is only with hackulo us repository then you need to wait and keep trying, because it is busy.

    Alternatively you can use Icy instead of Cydia.

    How to install and Use Icy:

    1. Launch Cydia
    2. Tap Manage then Sources
    3. Tap “Edit”
    4. Tap “Add”
    5. Type in http://apt.ripdev.com and Tap “Add Source”
    6. Search and Install “Icy”
    7. Go to Home screen and Launch “Icy”
    8. Tap “Sources” at the bottom
    9. Again Tap “Edit” then “Add”
    10. Type in http://cydia.hackulo.us and Tap “Add”
    11. Tap “Refresh” on top left
    12. Go to “Categories”
    13. Search for “Installous” and Install it
  24. Thanks cenOTapH..you are the best !! Now I understand it.

  25. i’ve jailbroken and now i have cydia with the appsync from hackulous. when i try putting cracked apps on by syncing with itunes, only some show up on my ipod springboard. how do i get all of them on?

  26. @trent

    Are you sure you checked all the applications to be synced in iTunes before syncing? It is a common error.

    Check sync all applications or all of the checkboxes if you are syncing specifically.

  27. they were all checked. apss all synced and worked when i used them on the 2.2.1 jailbroken. only a few will sync to the 3.0 jailbroken. even free apps synced from itunes store wont show up

  28. anyone know what to do. please

  29. @trent

    Since you did not receive any errors from both ends I believe it is a iTunes sync error. Select one application only (an unsynced one) and click to sync from iTunes and wait for the result. iTunes is not a great application, it gets messed up easily. Restarting the iTunes will help you also.

  30. I am having the same problem as trent. I have all my apps synced with Itunes from the 2.2.1 firmware. After the upgrade, install of cydia, install of appsync, and installous I cannot get any of the apps from my Itunes to install back to the Iphone. Only a few different apps show up. Some that I downloaded from Installous and synced before and some I got from the Itunes store. I also can download from Installous with no problem, install the app, but the icon never shows up. I can verify that the app installed by going through IphoneBrowser and see that it is in the /var/mobile/applications. Not sure why this is. Any suggestions.

  31. @trent + @Biocas

    I have searched your problem and found that your problem occurs with some phones (randomly). Solution is:

    Apps are not appearing on Springboard probably because of private apis changes.

    Dirty Solution 1:
    DELETE
    /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist
    then respring your phone.

    Solution 2 : re-store / re-quickpawn / re-jailbreaking your iphone.

    Hope this solves your problem.

  32. Thanks for the help. I redid everything and it still wouldn’t show up. I ended up clearing out all of my cache, history, and cookies from safari and the applications started showing up. Kinda bizarre but it works now without any issues.

  33. @Biocas

    Sometimes weird stuff happens and makes us mad. But I am glad at least you solved your problem :)

  34. i didnt install any free application first before downloading installous, now i can’t find it on my main screen or cydia. any ideas?

  35. @help

    Did you add the hackulo.us repo? Installous does not come in cydia by default. If you installed it but not listed in home or cydia package management, try re-installing.

  36. I have cydia and icy downloaded and went to try and download Installous, I got an error. I also was asked if I wanted to upgrade stuff, I got an error “Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on essential”, those were the essential apps it said. When I tired to download Appsync it came up with an error too, “Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)” – any ideas? Thanks

  37. @Aj

    You need to perform the essential updates of cydia first, otherwise you will receive those depacking errors. Keep trying to update the cydia itself.

    You may try installing via Icy but you can face problems even in with Icy due to missing packages also.

  38. I’m trying to install Installous through Cydia & Icy but I keep getting the error message: “Couldn’t configure pre-depend dpkg for grep, probably a dependcy cycle.”

    When I try to install the files you’ve stated I’m getting the same message. That goes for when I try to updated Cydia.

    Any insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

  39. @ yatti…

    rejailbreak but do not check the box for icy…there is something in icy that interferes with cydia

  40. Well, I have it unlocked also. So just re-store it back to 3.0 then just jailbreak it and unlock it again but don’t get Icy?

  41. @yatti

    Yes exactly and tap on update the first time you launched the cydia, do not skip it. Install all the updates and then restart.

  42. Alright doing it right now. Will let everyone know the outcome. Thanks for all the help fellas.

  43. to cenOTapH & djfonz, thank you for the help. it all went well. mad thanks guys!

    another question just came to mind, do i need to install for anything? or if i want to can i just install or would i encounter the same error message like before if i choose to install it?

  44. @Yatti

    I am glad you worked around your problem and it is working now. But I did not get your question?? If you are talking about cydia updates, no you dont. cydia will notify you whenever it needs an update. Just be sure to say yes when it does.

  45. Oops sorry, I meant can I install Icy. Would I have the same errors like before if I intall it through Cydia instead? Or I wouldn’t need to install Icy at all since I already have Cydia working?

    The only reason I asked is because Icy seems more user friendly for me.

  46. You will not face any errors if you install it through cydia (hopefully) :)

  47. LOL.

    Well, I think I rather just stick with Cydia then. It’s not even my phone, doing it for my brother. Just he’s not all that gadget savvy. Was trying to avoid him asking me questions.

    Thanks again cenOTapH & djfonz!!!!!!

  48. I got the 3.0 firmware update today and rejailbroke my ipod touch 2g. I synced with my itunes library and none of my cracked apps were synced, do i need to install app sync 3.0 or do i have to reinstall them from installous, which is not possible because of the “unable to find” error, any suggestions

  49. @Nate

    If you are going to use iTunes for syncing of course you need to install AppSync first.

  50. But i already synced them from my ipod to itunes before i rejailbroke it, now i cant get them back on, will appsync work for getting them back on to my ipod?

  51. If they are not cracked ipa files you do not need AppSync . AppSync is to sync cracked applications with iphone/ipod succesfully.

    Put your ipas in the itunes application directory not somewhere else.
    You may need to clear your cache and respring your phone as I told several comments above.

  52. They are cracked, but im going to try installing appsync and then re syncing with itunes.

    Thanks

  53. Ok, sweet it worked with appsync 3.0, thanks alot man

  54. Im still having troubles with installous, i reinstalled all the packages you listed above then i reinstalled the hackulo.us repo and reinstalled installous, still giving “unable to find exutable error” any help is greatly apreciated.

  55. @ Nate

    I have the same exact problem…..and I’m at work!!! can you at least still install ipa’s via Itunes???

  56. i downloaded appsync and reset the phone but all i get is apple logo to a blank screen please someone help me

  57. @Nate

    1. First you update cydia if it aks for update
    2. Then you install installous
    3. If it cant find executables or some other error then you try to reinstall the listed packages

    Not before installing installous.

    Maybe cydia developed a problem with dependencies. Install Icy via Cydia then Try to install installous from there

  58. @xoutlaw

    If you have AppSync installed and installous not working. You can sync cracked apps via iTunes. It generally works.

  59. @CZR

    Give the phone some time to boot. If it is still blank logo, try to connect it via iTunes or SSH. If you can not reach the phone (means its not even started its services) you will have to restore-rejailbreak it.

  60. Ok, so installous just released anupdate and everything seems to be working fine for me

    @ xoutlaw

    use appsync3.0 and it should let you transfer ipa’s

  61. When I try to install appsync 3.0 suddenly cydia closes before starting to install, I tried many times, any help?

  62. i have the same problem but me i downloaded appsync 3.0 without any problem but when i tried to download installous, i click on install and cydia close before the confirmation page appear

  63. KL Thanks. Followed instructions and everything worked just fine for me.

  64. i tried to restore and re-jailbreak it and i have the same problem help me please

  65. I’m not running 3.0, but none of the other links on google would help me. I have the “unable to find executive” error that many others have, and i have tried setting it to dirty. the app installs but crashes as soon as i open it. i have an ipod touch 2g. any suggestions please?

  66. @Mabast, @tristan

    Installous have releases a new version which is installous 2.0.3, I and many people updated succesfully. But sometimes cydia acts weird even in best conditions. You guys can use Icy as an alternative to cydia. I guess that will solve your problems. and Do not jailbreak with cydia + icy. Only select cydia. If you want Icy then install Icy via cydia.

  67. @Matt

    You seem to have problems with the firmware, again you can try Icy also. I would suggest you to use

    iTunes method:
    only miPatch (in your case of OS 2.x) and sync via iTunes

    or installous method:
    No miPatch, download install from installous.

    One of them should work fine for you.

  68. To fix cydia problems
    step 1: if u jailbroke ur iPod with cydia and icy ur fine if u dnt then jailbreak it wit both apps
    step 2: now ur gonna rejailbreak wit only installing cydia ( do not checkmark the icy box)

    now both appa should still b in ur device and work perfectly

  69. Hope someone can help…I’ve just jailbroken my iphone 3G (OS 3.0). When prompted to perform a complete update for Cydia, I get the following error:
    “Couldn’t configure pre-depend dpkg for ncurses, probably a dependency cycle.”

    I’ve been able to update the essentials, but still can’t install the remaining components.

    I have already restarted using a power-down/up as well as a hard reset, but I still get the same error.
    When trying to install Installous, I get the same error.
    Can anyone suggest a workaround?

  70. i upgrade to installous 2.0.3v and know when i download apps and install them on my iphone they dont show up!!

    someone help me??

    Your solution is

    here

  79. @RG and @Jake

    it seems to be a server down issue or something temporary. Give it some time then try again.

  80. @Chris

    You can install cracked apps but you can not get “free” updates for cracked apps of course.

  81. I have an iPhone 2G running 3.0 and installous 2.0.2. No issues with it.
    iPhone #2 is a 3GS with installous 2.0.3. Getting the (apparently) notorious “cannot find executable” whenever a clean install is attempted. Only Dirty installs work. I can’t imagine this is a 3GS issue, but maybe? Are there others running installous on a jailbroken 3GS yet and successfully installing (clean method) cracked .ipa s?
    Assuming the issue isn’t hardware, anybody come across this issue? I’ve uninstalled/reinstalled everything, restarted many times — even restored and jailbroke again from scratch in hopes of getting this to work.

  82. @Jake: you have the source wrong… it’s cydia.hackulo.us I used it without the cydia part at first and got the same errors as you…

  83. @Jake

    I have the same problem….just upgraded my 2g i phone to 3.0 and every time i try to put that source in it says it cant be found…i know its the right source since i had installous downloaded before the upgrade =[ might just be a server problem or something (I hope)

  84. i have an iPhone 3G OS 2.2.1 …. i added the source cydia.hackulo.us to cydia and got the error message “sub-process bzip2 returned an error code 2″ i press ok and cant find any program in the repo. i tried to add it to Icy and when it is done i search for installous and cant find it… Plz help with this

  85. tried few times to install installous on 3.0 firmware but it stop and return to home menu… plz help with this

  86. Hey
    So I just jailbroke my ipod with the newest firmware 3.0
    One of the first things i did was download Installous
    So i went to download one of my favorite games Fast&Furious
    I noticed it wasnt loading as fast as usual
    And after it got to about 8 percent an error came up saying
    -Download failed! Error – -timed out http://dl.alpha.a…-
    I cant see the rest after the -…-
    I have tried re-installing everything
    i re-jailbroke my iPod 3 times
    Does Safari Download Plug-In have anything to do with it??
    Next thing im going to try is use Icy
    Does that work?^
    But Im not sure I want to get help here first
    Thanks in advance

  87. @Jean

    as I understood you only receive timeout error only from fast and furious? then try another mirror to download. It is 100% the host you are downloading is having some problems.

    If you are receiving timeout error from all websites, you may have a problem with your wireless also.

    Safari download may interfere with installous download also. Unistall it and then try.

  88. @Jake
    Did you type the source in correctly? I had the same issue but realized I only put “hackulo.us” and not “cydia.hackulo.us”

  89. HI all,
    I’ve just jailbroken my iphone 3gs, and i have some troubleshot with installous, i’ve done exactly like it is written in your tuto, but when i clic on install to install a game for exemple with installous, it says me “unable to decompress archive”…

    Thanks for all !

  101. Hey! i downloaded app sync and installous.
    My problem is that i recently synced it into my itunes, and i lost my cracked apps i have gotten. i reinstalled them and now they are fine.

    However whenever i try to sync my phone into the computer to update my music , it completely freezes up itunes and a message window pops up saying “applemobiledevicehelper” center doesnt work anymore. What happened ?! ive already tried redownloading itunes and deleteing the installous and appsync and reinstalled those…

    got any ideas? i appreciate all the help i can get. Thanks.

  102. Hi Guys,
    Help please. I have installuos and it was working very well before the fails on hackulo.us last friday. now after hackulo back and when i open istallous from my home it keeps reloading looooooong time without any response or some times I get 500 internal server error. from my office it’s working very well. any one can help ?? it was working from both home and office but now from office only.
    Thanks.

    • John probably hackulo.us is down or your home wireless connection is having connection problems. Or you managed to catch down times at home :) nothing to worry about.

  103. By the way I remived hackulo.us source and installuos and added them again but nothing changed. still have same problem

  104. Hi, while I was jailbreaking I choose both cydia and icy to install, so I had problems with cydia. That’s why I uninstall cydia – I thought that I can use icy only, but on appsync info page it is written “install with cydia only”
    Do I really have to?
    I don’t want to re-jailbreak because then I loose every jailbroken app saves, high scores etc.

    P.S. Sorry my English I’m from Czech republic.

  105. I have a 3Gs jailbroken and unlocked phone with latest apps. Some softoware I download via Cydia from Exsellize repo will install without errors but when I lanuch this software (ex: Iblacklist) it will open and close immediately. Other Software downloaded from the same repo will generate an error during install which reads: “sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)” and them I am prompted to force remove.
    Can anyone help please? I have already added all the recmmended files mentioned at the top of this list.

    Thanks

    • That list is for installous installation from hackulo.us repository. It is possible that, there is an error in your exsellize repo or distributed files via the repo.

  106. Tnx, man. No wonder you’re THE MAGICIAN. Love it!!!

  107. thank you so much!! i had to get icy to get installous.. which i never would have figured out. thanks again.

  108. you guys are freakin geeks. But very impressive stuff

  110. Tried a few more apps versions same thing it open as though it’s gonna work then a few seconds later crashes to home screen please someone must be experiencing same problem also clean install does not install app only dirty does dunno if it’s associated but I just cannot get any app to date to start it just intalls but doesn’t open any help would be greatly appreciated. Am I missing something or can someone tell me a small app version that worked for u so I can try install that?

  111. No the apps from app store are fine just installous apps are not working man it’s so iritating can some1 post a small app from installous and version/ source that they have dowloaded and works fine so I can try doing same to make sure I’m not the most unluckiest person on the planet downloading all the unworking aps lol!

  113. i installed crackulous following the instructions as given at the top of this page from cydia. followed the instructions to the T. when i try to start crackulous up it will pop up the app then cut itself off. any help would be much appreciated. thanks.

  114. in regards to my message. i realized what my problem was and i downloaded the wrong thing. i appologize for my mistake

  115. @cenotaph yeah i just noticed my mistake while i was re-going over the how to at the top

  116. UPDATE CYDIA AND ALL THE NECESSARY THINGS AND ITLL WORK=D THATS
    THATS WUT I DID

  117. heyy it finally downloaded it but then
    when i open the app it just sends me back to the home screen

  118. Here’s the problem: the original poster didn’t give you correct instructions. I know, because I followed incorrect instructions and bricked my phone the very first time. After you add the cydia.hackulo.us package, install AppSync, then Crackulous, then Installous IN THAT ORDER. If you don’t, you’ll run into any/all of the problems listed in this post. I’ve done this a few times now and had no problems whatsoever.

  119. HELP!!!!!! I have the Iphone #g running 3.1 software and installed Cydia, Winterboard, and also installous. I restarted my iphone to make sure it was installed correctly and now my iphone will NOT load up. All that shows up is the Apple logo and ive been waiting 10 minutes for this thing to load! What did i do wrong? I know i can restore my settings back in itunes but seriously, how do i get installous and my iphone to work even when i do need to restart?? Please help me!

  120. I got a iPhone 3G and am running Cydia and winterboard like Chris as well, but I made sure to install Appsync right before I installed Installous, and had my iPhone restarted. At first it booted up very slow but then all the programs I was using would shut down right away. I uninstalled Appsync and Installous and restarted again but still have the same problem. Any suggestions how to fix this?

  121. Does App Sync works with 3.0.1 anyway?

  122. Help, i have a 3G with 3.0.1 installed. My phone is jailbroken with Cydia on it, i have added the cydia.hackulous.us source, i have attempted to add Installous but every time that i try, nothing shows up on my springboard (the main screen). It is almost like nothing is transfering to my iphone. after the 1st attempt, i backed up my phone on my Mac, and then wiped it and reinstalled my backup, jailbroke it again but it didn’t help again. i have since downloaded a free app from the app store, i have restarted the phone and Installous never shows it’s beautiful face. i have even tried downloading Cycorder (successfully) from cydia.

    i don’t know where to go from here….

    • 1 Are you sure you installed all essential cydia updates?
      2 Does it give any errors while installing installous?
      If no errors and If it doesn’t maybe your cache is messed up

      DELETE
      /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist
      then respring your phone.

      If not, instead of restroing your backup, you should do a clean restore.

  123. i have an iphone 3gs wit the 3.0 software and every time ii try to download a file it stops around 30% and gives me a download error message

  124. Yea, I can’t even seem to get the Installous icon to show up on my iPhone. I’m using 3.0.1, and have downloaded installous off of Cydia. I did not receive any errors during download/installation, and have tried deleting my cache, and using a clean restore.

  125. I install cydia.hackulo.us to my ipod touch and crackulous e.t.c and when i turn my ipod off and on it doesnt work? it gets stuck on the apple logo? please help?

  126. I installed cydia.hackulo.us on my iphone and when i turned it off and on again it gets stuck at the apple logo screen with a little “loading” symbol and the phone just keeps restarting. I had to restore the phone because it would not start up. What did I do wrong? i just upgraded to 3.01 and jailbroke. PLEASE HELP!

  127. Well guys it seems like 3.0.1 is not compatible with installous yet.. creates more problems. I havent upgraded to 3.0.1 yet so I really dont have a solution

  128. can someone please help me?…I installed installous but when i open it up i just get a blank white screen..it doesn’t load…i reinstalled and restarted my touch plenty times…please someone help :/

    • I have 3.0.1… Installous shows up, but the white screen pops up too… It says at the top “Appulo.us temporarily offline while we work out some payment issues. We’ll be back ASAP!”

      Apparently they’re down right now, but should be back up soon.

      • yeah now it says that for me too…how long does it usually take to get for installous to get back up?…im kinda new so i don’t have past experience

        thanks bud

  129. I have installous running on 3.0.1 – but the sites been down since I installed the updates, so I wouldn’t say it’s compatible, but it does seems to be working on 3.0.1 without the rebooting issue… for now…. maybe it’s once you install something through it.

  130. now it says its ready but needs to get onine…idk how long that’s gonna take…its been about half a day

  131. ok installous loaded up for me…once..just once for some reason…

  132. ok its working perfectly…except for some reason i’m not able to get the need for speed undercover app…it just doesn’t take me to the “mirrors” of the apps…oh well tons of other awesome apps…WOOT

  133. I downloaded everything. The last step was reboot. When I restarted the phone, it won’t boot up :( I can see apple symbol on the screen…….what did I do wrong. Please help

  134. Hey I download them and when I try to play em or something it just goes back to the main screen! Please help!!!

  135. I Had the same probs but after I uninstalled iTypeFastr(ligal) everything works fine !

  136. is there a way to know about an update for an app that you installed through installous without having to go to the website and manually checking to see if a new version is up? please respond

    thanks

  137. Hi guys, i cant seem to install appsync from cydia, keep getting 404 error. Can i get appsync antwhere else?
