I have the absinthe 2.0.2 and I have been trying to get installous for my jailbreak and I can’t find it on cydia, can anybody help?
U hav to install the hackulo.us source in cydia
did you add cydia.hackulo.us to your sources yet?
You need to add hackulo.us to your sources in cydia as it says above first then once it shows up in sources, click on hackulo.us and a list of all their apps will appear including installous.
Hi, at first i couldnt get installous i kept trying to download it from the hackulo.us source but thats a load of crap. Its rubbish. Theres other and better sources you can use to get installous.
1. RepoCydia.com
2. repo.ispazio.net
3. sinfuliphonerepo.com
4. repo.insanelyi.com
Use these sources trust me they’re waaay better
Ive used one of the links that you have provided and reinstalled Installous 5 again, but im still having the same problems with API ERROR.
Ive have a 4S version 5.1.1
Is there anything else that you can suggest to fix this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
thank u so much it worked
If any one facing any problem downloading installous or getting errors while installing apps from installous. Ok first install this 2 apps which r easily available in cydia which are ifile and respring. Ifile is a file manager which can also install deb files, and respring is app which refreshes u r springbroad which is always useful to install debs file or apps from cydia. So now all u need is a browser with download manager on u iPhone or iPod or even iPad but I prefer dolphin browser. Open u r browser on u r phone and go to http://cydia.hackulo.us/ here u can get all deb files u need to install installous. Now download appscyn from here as u r iOS version like appscyn 4 for iOS 4 and appsync 5 for ios 5 and open it with ifile then it will pop up with unzip and install then install it, don’t worry nothing will happen until u use this app called respring which I mentioned above. Now use respring app it will automatically refresh u r springbroad without any lag or hanging issue that’s why I always use respring and this app is also very useful for those who have a tethered iPhone who are scared of restarting their iPhone or their cydia and installed apps will vanish. So now after refreshing u r then go to AppStore download any free and small app to make u r appsync app work perfectly on u r device. Now go back to http://cydia.hackulo.us/ and download and install any version of installous app deb file with ifile and refresh u r springbroad with respring. Now u will c the installous app installed on u r device and it will work perfectly without any errors. This method is very useful for who have a tethered iPhone or cannot install installous from cydia.
ive been trying to find this solution but i cant can anyone help with why i keep on getting errors while trying to download cydia.hackulo.us and i keep getting errors?
install this source: sinfuliphonerepo.com and then download APPCAKE instead of intallous. works perfectly!!
sorry it is http://cydia.hackulo.us
Tried your stuff. Not working.
I’m using my iPhone 4s. 5.1.1
Tried everything..
Same here, just jailbroke today. Im buggered off.
Hackuloso has officallly shut down it no longer workes
Having exactly the same issue.. Tried reinstalling like 2 or 3 times now, but nothing.
So I get API errors while looking for some apps like Voxer on Installous. Is there any reason or way to fix it?
Uninstall backgrounder
Same here, I had 5.0 running on my 4S, then I updated to 5.1.1 and jailbroke again using Absinthe 2.0.4 (I also used this on ver 5.0)
But this API error has been bugging me ever since, couldn’t download a single app off installous :’(
I disabled the following functions in the settings of installous : itunes sync, remove meta data and localsharing. After that every works fine.
it working thanks
thanks alot … It’s working
Sorry, just 1 download, after that API error again
same here…what to do?
Crazy only download 1 app????
hi tanvi hw r u
thr only one way to fix installous bye new iphn 5
I have tried all the steps in the video and I’m still getting the API error.
not working, sorry. but thanks anyway. I did exactly as described but the API error comes up just as before (iOS 5.0.1).
I tried watever u told me….still gettin the same error…at first it worked fine….I even installed a couple of apps…..bt suddenly deer was a prob …an all the apps i dwnloaded using imstallous were uninstalled automatically…since den its nt Wrekin….help…plzzz!
same problem here, Iphone 4s 5.1.1 followed the instructions (all of them) and the issue is still there
assistance is appreciated
Installous and Apptrackr are a bag of shit, completely unreliable and not worth the time fucking about with. Stops working every 5 seconds, and even when you fix the API error it fucks itself up again within 10 seconds! Worthless shit and the people who created it are a bunch of wankers!
Don’t feed the trolls
Then you create one, douche

For those having problems with Installous (Api Error) after jailbreraking, just sync anything with itunes (Music or pics for example)? and that should fix it. Im no expert but i tried it an it worked for me, give it a try.
thats the problem i cant find appsync 5.0+ in hackulos
It installs together with Installous
Safari Download Manager installed gives Api error in Installous
does anyone know how to fix the api error :@ jailbroke yesterday and this api is so annoying
jaibroken iPad3 Jul 09 2012
ios 5.1.1
I used Installous successfully yesterday. I tried all the above, no results, I’m still getting api error, api unavailable.
Hope this gets sorted out soon!
i have the same probleme with installous 5
Me too
” ios 5.1.1
I used Installous successfully yesterday. I tried all the above, no results, I’m still getting api error, api unavailable. ”
But i tried 100 time & in the end it worked :’D *crying from happiness*
Not working !!!! Facing problem for two days now…
This is NOT something you can fix on your end. The api error means that installous can’t communicate with the server. If you go to apptrackr.org and it is down then you basically have to wait until it comes back online and your api error will go away. Looks like it’s down right now so there’s the problem right there… it’s probably just overloaded. Patience is a virtue.
(similiar to Grrrr’s advice)
I followed instructions and like a few of you I tried reinstalling a bunch of times all different ways. After some research the problem is that the ISP has blocked it for piracy reasons. It did work for me the first time I used it then stopped so the ISP blocking it kind of makes sense. A website advised use your iPhone browser and try to open apptrackr.org). If safari (or whatever browser) wont open that site then the ISP blocked the downloading. (apptrackr and Hackulous work together)
The site says if this is the case you have to “find a proxy server by searching online. Once you find it head over to Settings > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi Network and choose your HTTP Proxy by tapping on the Manual button.”
If anybody knows how to do this please advise the rest of us frustrated people. Oh….and after the proxy is setup you have to reboot.
You fucken idiot, it didn’t work , humans only should use the Internet. Step 4 let your mom to teach you right
I had to use Installous 4 from the source repo.insanelyi.com as Installous 5 has NEVER worked for me since the time it came out. Hope this helps some of you…
WTf! Juste unstall them reinstall Installous.
You have to open Installous and on the home page go to
settings and turn of iTunes sync it work on mine
dude i got iphone 4s IoS 5.1.1 and i tried to do all things you said but still my installous cannot find anything and it says (erroe while searching for updates) i download cydia and installous yesterday and it works good but today morning it show me this problems. thank you.
Hi everyone,
I can’t follow the instructions because when I remove Installous it automatically removes Appsync? This also happens when I try to remove Appsync, it remove Installous?
Nothing I try will let me remove each one individually?
Any ideas?
I had everything working until I got battery issues so I restored my phone and now can’t get this to work….
this is useless

I tried the instructions and now the app doesn’t show up, I installed SBS settings to see if it was hidden but that didn’t work. Are there any other alternate solutions or is there another reason the app is not showing up once installed?

tried removing, reinstalling installous 5, removing, reinstalling from repos other than hackulo.us, removing hackulo repo, than adding hackulo repo again and installing from it and at last it’s working again. i guess the server just overloaded and needed some time to clear off.

Goodnight, sweet prince.
We are very sad to announce that Hackulous is shutting down. After many years, our community has become stagnant and our forums are a bit of a ghost town. It has become difficult to keep them online and well-moderated, despite the devotion of our staff. We’re incredibly thankful for the support we’ve had over the years and hope that new, greater communities blossom out of our absence.
With lots of love,
Hackulous Team
