UPDATE: INSTALLOUS 3.1 RELEASED. INSTALLOUS IS NOW A UNIVERSAL APP WHICH MEANS THAT IT RUNS PERFECTLY ON THE IPAD. ON THE IPAD, INSTALLOUS HAS SUPPORT TO SHOW IPAD ONLY APPS!

Finally an update

Installous, the app to download and install cracked apps was updated today.

Here’s what the devs have to say:

Installous is relatively stable, but there are a couple caveats which you must take note of.

• Native Installation has a small bug in which installations report completion a little early on older devices (iPhone 2G, iPod 2G, etc.). More specifically, older processors. We’re not entirely sure why yet, and it’s the reason why were we absurdly delayed in the public release. It is the default installation option, since most of our users are on newer devices. But if you’re on an older device and you’re installing a huge app, we suggest changing to bash installation in the settings tab by turning off native installation.
• AppSync is required for this. Either 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, or 4.0 (which doesn’t exist yet, but still).

It seems like the first time some people run it, it will not connect to apptrackr properly or something. Restart springboard or your entire device, and the problem shouldn’t persist. We’ll figure out what’s wrong later.

If you check the appulo.us site you will see a question there! I found a list of passwords for questions if you know more please share in comment section. Thank you!

There is a new version of Installous 2.5. With installous you can easily search through hundreds of cracked AppStore apps then download and install them with a single click! This version of installous is work under OS 3.1.2 (3.x I think).

I can’t find any sufficient change in it’s interface but I think that this version is more stable than previous version.
In order to install it you have to add the following repository on your Cydia:

Look at this:

What do you think? Apple can detect cracked ipa! hah!?

Today I got this message while using IM+. I didn’t see any kind of limitation in IM+ after that message but I think jailbreakers have to find a way to resolve this issue. I think it’s time to update the cracking process, Installous, etc.

[iPhone 2G - OS 3.1.2]

[UPDATE, Works well on 3.1.3]

Appsync (installd) is now available for iPhone OS 3.1 (& iPod Touch).

Appsync is a mobileinstallation patch for OS 3.x. As one knows in order to install cracked iPA files via iTunes, we need to install appsync (3.x) or mobilesintallationpatch (2.x)

How to install Appsync for OS 3.1

1. Open Cyida
2. Add the hackulo.us repo (http://cydia.hackulo.us)
3. Search about Appsync in Cyida
4. Install “Appsync for OS 3.1″
5. Enjoy!

For more information about how to use Appsync please read the following articles:

• AppSync & installd
• Installous & iPhone OS 3.0
• Mobileinstallation Patch for iPhone OS 3.0

According to the latest news from DevTeam members :

1. iTunes 9 is safe
2. iPhone OS 3.1 is HARMFUL

DONT UPDATE TO OS 3.1, WAIT for the new version of pwning tools.

Stay Tuned.

Users who wants to use Installous, Appsyne, Mobileinstallation patch on their iPhones should wait for the new releases of DevTeam products (Redsn0w, PwnageTool, …) in order to Jailbreak their iPhones.

This week Apple will be all over the news with their announcements at Wednesday’s “Let’s Rock” event. But with so many new owners of the iPhone 3GS, and with so many new owners of the iPhone 3G (perhaps sold to them by these new 3GS owners)…now is a good time to send out this general advisory.

If you update to Apple’s new software using the normal iTunes process, you will lose your ultrasn0w unlock. In fact you may lose it permanently, because for most people the baseband firmware cannot be reverted to a previous version (unlike the main application CPU firmware).

But don’t worry…our PwnageTool program lets you update your main firmware without touching your baseband firmware, so you can still have the best of both worlds. But you must be diligent about saying “no” to your iTunes request this week to update your firmware.

Stay tuned for more update & news.

After releasing iPhone OS 3.0, Installous updated to ver 2.0.3. There are lots of users who can’t use Installous because of several error that may appears during installation of IPA files.

Troubleshooting (General)

1. Update on all Cydia packages. Do not skip updates.
2. Try Restarting device
3. Install an application from app store like “Google” before installing applications from Installous.
4. First select download, wait for it to finish (100% complete) then tap “Downloads” section and install. Double tapping on download may corrupt your downloaded file.
5. Make sure the file you are downloading works fine. -How To?-
6. 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. Installous is dependent on these sub package libraries.
   • Erica Utilities
   • zip
   • unzip
   • gawk
   • Curl
   • core utils
   • grep
   • Darwin CC Tools
   • UUID Generator
7. You can find the Installous .deb file here.

Today when i want to access to Appulo.us site, I found the following String instead of the original site!
