Could anyone please tell me what Jailbreaking is please and what it can do for a Ipod Touch?

Thanks
 
all apps that you have to pay for you dont when jailbroke :proud:
 
Thanks for the info m8:Clap:

Do you know if a 2nd gen Touch can be done?

cheers
 
Thanks for that.

When jailbroken are apps added by downloading to PC then transferring to itouch?
 
You can download them to pc or just us install0us to do it directly from ipod touch using wifi connection.

Heres a decent guide of what to do after jailbreak posted by Matt.

You don't need all that stuff installed, its just a guide to what they do. Install0us and appsync are needed though.

Hello again.
I jailbroke using Spirit and all seemed well however when I

Cydia -> manage -> Packages

I don't have the Installous app.

Any ideas?

cheers
 
Go to Cydia/search and type in install0us and then install it. It will then be on the homescreen and in packages.
 
Thanks I'll have a go.

When I register at istore to get a free app should I use genuine info like name, address, credit card? Could they tell it's jailbroken?

cheers

Register with genuine email addy because you will need to verify it.

Create an accounty in itunes appstore, not the itunes start page, go to the appstore and grab a free app, it will then ask you to register, fill it all in and when it comes to payment details...there will be an option for none, tick that and your done.

No they can't tell if it's JB.

Heres a link for you to see about registering, it may load slow, doesn't usually but loaded slow for me there when I checked it.
