    Well im back at my house now and not at my cousin so re jailbreaking it or whatever doesnt work. The only way i can get installous is if cydia will stop being gay. I searched and they said it should've came with it in the mod.myi repo but its not there so im trying to find an alternate source but still can't find one. If anyone knows how to download Erica Utilities onto your computer and then transfer it, please explain the process to me.

    Did you put in the source for installous?

    Something might be down with their servers D:

    Maybe you can figure out a way to DL with the PC and install it that way.

    Copy to your /bin folder and set permissions to 755.

    Use this program to acess the ipod filesystem (via US:

    @hobolord:
    Dude, that would take him some 45 minutes, over hacking in one line in the SSH client.

    Noteworthy is, that you posted a link to a piracy page, which i would hurry to remove, if I were you. Keeping that privately, would be my suggestion, as that avoids someone calling the mods on to you m8.

    First: The source is not apt.mod.myi.com, but apt.modmyi.com

    If that isn't the problem:
    Possibly the downloaded Cydia was corrupted, or it got messed up to not initialize properly anymore.

    First try:
    "su" "alpine" "apt-get remove cydia-sources" "apt-get install cydia-sources"
    Than reload cydia and check if the modmyi repository is available and working correctly.

    If not:
    "su" "alpine" "apt-get remove cydia" "apt-get install cydia"

    Could be a fix, but if that doesn't work, I start to would consider restoring.
