How To Get Installous Cracked Apps On iOS 4.3.3 Jailbroken iPad 2 [Video]

Ads
on July 6, 2024

Let's face it, most of us have only been waiting for an iPad 2 jailbreak release so that we can get Installous on our iPad 2. While Installous isn't everything to jailbreaking, for some it is the most essential part of jailbreaking their device. Many users just jailbreak their devices to get access to a wide range of tweaks, apps and themes not approved by Apple, while some on the other hand just don't want to pay developers for the hard work they put in to developing an app, hence the thought behind getting Installous to install cracked apps on jailbroken iOS devices.

I assume that you know how to use JailbreakMe 3.0 to jailbreak iOS 4.3.3 iPad 2. After you have done that, and are relatively new to the jailbreaking scene, you probably have heard of Installous but don't know how to get it. Don't worry, this guide will teach you exactly how you can do that.

Step 1: Launch Cydia on your jailbroken iPad 2.

Step 2: Tap on Sources in the bottom right corner.

Step 3: Now tap on Edit in the top right corner followed by Add in the top left corner. Cydia will now ask you to enter a URL.

Step 4: Enter the following URL: http://cydia.hackulo.us and tap on Add Source.

Following a series of automated steps, Cydia will now install the Hackulous repository. Once that is done, simply search for Installous in Cydia and download it.

For you convenience, video guide is embedded below:

Once you have downloaded Installous on your device, launch it from the home screen and proceed to install cracked apps, which we obviously do not encourage you to do.

Please note that this procedure for getting Installous is exactly the same for supported iOS devices other than the iPad 2 as well.

Any problems? Don't hesitate to leave a comment below and our team will help you out immediately.

    Hi. My Installous cache categories pretty long time and when at reaches to last category, it just stopped working. I tried several times and no luck. When I open again, I see Installous with empty category directories. Any help would be appreciated.

    • Wev

      Hey Ryan, had the Same problem. I simply installed hackulo a secound time and it was solved. Greetz

      • Ryan

        Ok. Great! I’ll try that. Thanks!

        • zeus011

          Within Installous, Go to Settings, iTunes sync. If set to ON, change to OFF… then try it again

      • Robert Barrentine

        I had the same problem. Took me three tries. There were no colorful error messages on my last go and the directories were filled!

      you need to remove the xsellize repo first. bcoz when u install installous, it installs Appsync (from xsellize repo).

      solutions is below.

      1. remove xsellize repo
      2. remoe appsync ( this will remove installous too)
      3. search installous and it will install appsync 4.0+

      4. then add xsellize repo as u like.

      • mammamia

          Go to Cydia>Manage>Sources. Swipe your finger over the xsellize repo. Tap on delete to remove it from Cydia.

    API Error constantly…

    • http://www.iphoneism.com Lota Man

      Too much load on Installous servers right now. Imagine those poor servers trying to cope with an additional load of round about a million jailbroken iPads, on top of millions of jailbroken iPhones and iPod touches.

      Don’t sweat, try again after a couple of hours.

      try rebooting your device, mine worked after i did

  • MJ

    I got installous installed but when I try to download an app it brings me the app store. Is that correct? Occasionally I get the API error also.

    • Martin

      I think the problem is that you clicked “View In AppStore” instead of hitting a free download link below.

      • MJ

        Oh so don’t click where it says download/download later? That’s what I originally clicked on. I’m new to the whole ipad/ipod jailbreaking process.

      • MJ

        I see my mistake. I didn’t wait for the page to populate. Thanks Martin.

  • Martin

    Their server is being assaulted by all the new jailbroken devices. Use AppCake while you wait for the server overload to die down.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Chris-Kim/739930596 Chris Kim

    why does it lead me to the app store when i try to download via installous???

    • Markusb

      Dont select the App store like..wait for the others such as Mediafire, Fileape, ect

  • angel

    I thought it was only me =)) Just got jailbroken lol. What a bad timing?

  • Raff

    is it possible that you cant download any apps at all via installous right now?
    It’s just linking to the appstore no matter which app i choose?!

      That’s because u are clicking th show in app store option. There’s suppose to be several more options showing up below, if not, wait.

  • Tambiya786

    Yeah, just went on installous on my iPhone, there saying that it’s due to the amount off people trying to use it. So I think waiting is the only solution for now!

  • s_r

    Ok guys! It works. If you get the API error - just re-install hackulo and then installous and it’ll work. Else, just download the apps from apptrackr.org and sync them to your iPad

      Did you put your AppStore and iTunes In a folder ? Take them out and leave it on tray.. It will work.

    Hello,

    I have a jailbreaked ipad 2, so then I installed MyWi 4 on my ipad, but after it’s installed, I can’t open any applications or delete any of them. Once I try to open it, it will turns blank (black screen with the Apple icon). My ipad version is still 4.3.3. I am not sure if I need to reinstall it or not, but it seems like I have no other ways. Please help give me some ideas. I’ll be very appreciated.
