You can install CYDIA but you cant put any application on it? I got 3G 32gig.did I do any thing wrong?

Before you install any hacked apps, you have to install AppSync 3.1 from Cydia.

After JB, some "Homescreen Icons" (Music, Photo, Video...) disappeared! I did try, settings, general, reset homescreen, but these icons won not come back.

All Just want to clarify something regarding Cydia / installeous... If we download an cracked app via Installeous and install it on our ipod touch / iphone and then we do a normal synch via itunes. Will we get 'charged' (invoiced) by itunes / Apple when they 'see' - 'recognised' these cracked apps on our iphone / ipod Touch that we haven't downloaded officially via the itune store ? Please advise ? Alternatively is it best not to synch these cracked apps via itunes ? Thanks
Minh
Minh - May 7, 2010 at 7:01pm
Don't worry over the apps. Itunes would recognise them cracked apps and assumed you paid for them. Just drag to the 'Apps' section in your iTunes and sync normally and it should work fine.

Create an iTunes acc without a credit card and then sync.

If I am JBed with 3.1.2, is there any reason for me to update to 3.1.3 and use this?

Yeah, you can turn on and off your iPhone. Also, I need some help with this. All my homescreen icons, except for youtube, well, they kinda disappeared after the jailbreak. How do I get 'em back? An iPhone without a phone or internet app is kinda useless IMO. :x
