Installer 4.0 re-launched as a Cydia Alternative

Long before the jailbreak community has emerged dominantly, there was “Installer”, the pioneer in jail break app store before Cydia and Icy. As I had covered in my previous post about Icy, Installer has now being launched by the same developer.  And now, they have successfully ported to iOS 4.3.3, brought to you by Infini-Dev Team from their website’s official blog.

Although Installer’s store is limited because it is actually working differently from Cydia, it’s still a great success for the Infini-Dev Team to come up something like this. This is a great challenge for Saurik, the man behind Cydia, to enhance and create more added features (not to mention the commercialism that is occuring in Cydia). I bet Installer will be doing great when the new repositories will come online in the future. We hope that somehow, there will be great developments to further enhance the features that Installer has brought.

Unfortunately, to install Installer, you have to launch in Cydia by adding in the Sources. Type in: http://fr0stdev.co.cc/repo and add. Search for Installer 4.0 at Cydia and install it. I recommend restarting your iPhone after installing and then Installer will be ready.

Installer will only worked for a jailbroken iPhone. Once you have installed, launch Installer from your springboard and you can now browse for the available apps for you to choose. Enjoy the new store for jailbreak apps aside from Cydia and Icy!
