How to Jailbreak and get Installous (In a nutshell)

OK guys, this post is to help you with your jailbreaking questions. To jailbreak use a program called Blackra1n. It is 100% free and so is every other legit jailbreaking/unlocking tool. Don't pay for one. Like I said, use blackra1n (available from blackra1n.com) or use SpiritJB if you are on the 3.1.3 firmware. (Get SpiritJB with a simple Google search). Save the necessary program somewhere on your computer and, when your iPhone is plugged in, run the program and click either Jailbreak or Make It Ra1n. Once jailbroken, open your iPhone and find a program called Cydia. This is a brown icon with a box (or something) on it. Open it and go along with the pop ups. Be patient. When finally done, go to manage (down the bottom) then "Sources" then "edit" in top right corner, then "add" in top left corner and type the following into the pop up: http://cydia.hackulo.us/
Click "Add anyway" when necessary and let it download. When finished, go to "Search" (down the bottom) and type in "Installous". Download that by clicking "Install" then "Confirm", both in top right corner. Once that has downloaded, press "Return to Cydia" and press the home button. Voila, you now have Installous, a free app store. Enjoy. If you have trouble with Installous, there are plenty of YouTube video tutorials. You can NOT jailbreak if on 4.0 firmware, and I recommend syncing with iTunes before jailbreaking. I am not responsible if something on your iPhone fucks up. Jailbreaking voids your warranty. You've been warned. It IS possible to unjailbreak via a restore. Again, look up on YouTube.
