Yayyyy!! I have open software and freedom with a shitty piece of shit phone. I am happy for you and your open software and shit phone. Enjoy!! Numbers don’t lie retard. Number one phone in the world is always apple iPhones and the best reviewed phones collectively are apple iPhones. Are the majority wrong or the retard who is trolling apple forums because he’s mad that he’s stuck with a shitty phone and open software? If you don’t like apple, then get off a forum involving it. Fucking troll. Get a life and follow your shitty forums.

Cydia can close down ,all jail breakers can retire.
Kuaiyong is better then cydia.
Why jailbreak ,where you can get apps for free on kuaiyong .
It’s fast and work better then installous .
No more jailbreaking ,it so 2012.
It’s a good thing installous closed down ,so new ones can shine.
Apple think they won ,but its only the beginning.
Kuaiyong rules.

I have freedom. I can use ANY utility out there to sync if I want, or nothing and just drop the files on my device. You have to use iTunes, will always have to use iTunes, and if you stop using iTunes, will have to buy all that DRM’ed music you “bought” all over again.

I own a 2nd Gen iPod, and I have bought 1st Gen touches in the past, right up until Apple encrypted the database with a firmware update (without even asking mind you), and then I was no longer allowed to use Winamp to sync them. There was no reason, they just wanted to lock me into their own little ecosystem, where they get to tell me what to do with something I paid for, I don’t think so.
Primitive, ha, you mean I have to have an understanding of how things are working, so that I know my choices and real limitations. Let me guess, you think the “cloud” is a great idea too? Let us know how that goes for you, after you let your own backups fall to the wayside, and then realize you are completely dependent on paying someone every month for the rest of your life for you to have access to “your” stuff.

its like Apple is trying thir best to make people switch to android with all restrictions they ve been imposing lately, no going back to older OS, no jailbreaking (i personally cant live without SBS and NC settings!), now no installous, considering that 95% of those 700000 apps are garbage, lets be honest, we not willing to give away our money that we also DO spend for food, to support a clumsy made app with hundreds of clones! Dont know about others but i want to try that Android thing i keep hearing about more and more… maybe then developers will understan alongside with Apple what it really means to loose money!;)

So I do have iPod touch 8Gb and about 30Gb music library. While you would have to pick and move the files tracking the sync folder size, I chose one or two playlists depending on mood in the morning and let to fill the remaining space with random songs. Oh, it also syncs my Apps, videos and pictures, manages devices backups and updates, plays all my music from anywhere from desktop and laptop as well. Now what you have is a primitive sync utility, congrats.

Here is how I put music on my Nexus, I drag the files over to the Music folder. Describe again how nice an iPhone is and don’t forget to add all the music syncing choices you have, oh wait, sorry.

Open source software will always be more cutting edge than a walled garden, all Apple can do is cling to their overly vague craptasic patents and hope to sue the competition away.

The only thing an Apple iPhone has going for it are more case choices.

1. Switch on airplane mode and open installous, then turn airplane mode off for installous to work.
2. To install apps, simply use ifile to copy downloaded IPAs in the proper installous folder and go through step 1, then install as usual.

Need: installous, firewall ip, safari download enabler or downloading app, ifile
Search the app with “ipa” behind
Find download, download
Move from downloaded location to installous
Block installous with firewall
Start, ipa should be in downloaded section
Tap, install

So much more what? You have to jailbreak an iPhone to be able to do what even Samsung’s crappy touchwiz, or any other flavor of Android can do without a root. Even then, a lot of the features on a jailbroken iPhone are a simple download from google play.

Your post was bad, and you should feel bad.

In case you haven’t heard, there is still VShare! You have to get it from Safari, but it does basically the exact same thing!

There goes trying out a demo of the software before i decide to purchase.

Well, whenever my phone breaks, or dies, or stops working (iPhone 4s) I will have to look into something different.

apple phone users are missing out on the whole point of the meaning behind a smartphone/pocket pc. Apple phone’s and tablets will never be that

Good. Jailbreaking sucks. If you like to mess around with your phone and swipe software, jump on over to Android and stay there ;)

By: olly b Barzey

olly b Barzey — Mon, 31 Dec 2012 16:58:00 +0000

well i usually use hackulous to test the apps before i buy them as apple dont refund like google, i dont mind buying a game because we need to support the developers if apple have refund policy like google then i would use this instead of jailbreak just to try a game especially some if the ipad games are more expensive than the iphone version

Jailbreaking isn’t all about piracy. Certainly is a large portion but definitely not the whole ball of wax.
