Free in App purchases (non server based games only)

How to Get Free in App Purchases

Hey guys Carter here, today I'll go over how to get free in app purchases on your jailbroken Apple device. (video below)
What You'll Need:
Jailbroken device
Cydia
Sinful Iphone Repo (http://sinfuliphonerepo.com)
iAPFree
Instructions:
1. Go to Cydia in your device and add the Sinful iPhone Repo if you don't already have it.
Cydia - Manage - Sources - Edit
2. Search for iAPFree and install.
 3. Go to the application icon and when you open it for the first time it will prompt you to "Download the core Plugin." Make sure you install that plug in or it wont work.

4. I'd recommend logging out of iTunes for the first purchase to make sure the hack worked properly. If you get prompted to purchase or login cancel otherwise you'll end up getting charged for the purchase. It should just take you right through after you hit purchase without any further prompts.

There you go! You now get free in app purchases.

A few apps that are non server based.

Movies for free?

Movie must have? Check out Movie Box on Jailbroken Devices seriously best app ever it's like Netflix, and Hulu had a baby and this baby is free. Only one small ad at the bottom of the app but you get movies, TV and some Music Videos all for no cash out of your pocket. I've been watching my favorite TV shows the day after they air (yeah they update it that fast). I almost forgot to mention you can download any movie and TV show right off the app and save it for later watching when you have no internet connection (any flights coming up?) I'm more pleased with this app than I am with Netflix and I've been using that service since 2006. Download it you wont be displeased.
If you like that app check out Music Box same company (obviously) but any songs you want right then? I've found some songs of my favorite Aussie Hip-Hop artists I haven't been anywhere else (I wonder why... Hmmmm) Seriously another app you wont hate me for if you download.

Ipod Completely and Helplessly Frozen? Not Anymore!

Yesterday my friend gave me his Ipod touch 2G which he thought might be completely frozen so I took a look at it and I found the solution is farly easy but took some time to complete. Also today I was searching the web and I found out someone else was having the same problem so I know it wasn't just a freak accident. Here's the steps to fix your problem.

1. Turn off your Ipod Touch.
2. unplug it from your computer if it was plugged in.
3. Put it into DFU mode. (don't worry if it doesn't get past the boot logo it can still go into DFU mode.) instructions below if you don't know how to do it.
4. if Itunes opens up saying it recognises an ipod in restore mode youve done it right so far.
5. Download the origional Firmware from Itunes or from Here. (this will take about 20 mins.)
6. Restore your Ipod to the origional Firmware.
If all that works your ipod will be fixed and if you want to you can re-jailbreak it.

How to put Ipods into DFU mode.
1. Unplug Ipod touch from computer and turn off.
2. Hold Power and Home buttons while you plug ipod in. (hold for ten seconds.)
3. let go of power and continue holding home until itunes recognises it as ipod in restore mode.

New Quick Freedom Version 1.2.0

Unlike in the last version of Quick Freedom version 1.1.0 Jailbreak was the only option but they added two more options to the load screen. The new additions are Boot logo which allows you to change your boot screen and your DFU screen with out having to completely rejailbreak your Ipod/Iphone just create a new firmware like if you were jailbreaking put your Ipod into DFU mode and restore just like in the actual jailbreak process but here's the best part it doesn't delete your stored info on your Ipod! **Your Ipod has to be jailbroken to use this feature tho**
And they were also kind enough to add a trouble shooting feature so that you can get extra help if you need it. (but as you know my sites are better help)

Here's 2 links to the Newest version of Quick Freedom http://www.filefactory.com/file/age57b6/n/Setup_exe

Ill post a new step by step video on how to use it easily and correctly until then either check it out or use my old video!

Why Jailbreak?

There are alot of people that ask why would I want to jailbreak my Ipod or Iphone? There are over 2 million jailbroken Ipods/Iphones out there
Rumor One - Jailbreaking your Ipod/Iphone shortens the battery life.
Truth - This is not true the only reason it would seem that way is people tend to use their Ipods/Iphones more often. My solution? Turn your backlight down or off this will extend your battery life.
Rumor Two - You can "Brick" your Ipod/Iphone by jailbreaking it.
Truth - It's nearly impossibe to brick your Ipod/Iphone to "Brick" your Ipod/Iphone you have to destroy the hardware pretty much any software issue that people say "Bricked" their Ipod/Iphone can be fixed.
Rumor Three -Jailbreaking voids your wannanty.
Truth - 99% of the time you can restore your Ipod/Iphone before you bring it back to Apple the other 1% of the time your Ipod/Iphone is so messed up that they wouldn't be able to read the software.
Rumor Four - Jailbreaking Slows your Ipod/Iphone.
Truth - The jailbreak doesn't slow your Ipod/Iphone some users Ipod/Iphones are slow because they have way to many apps on their device so if yours starts running slow delete the old apps you don't use anymore.
Now here's some reasons why you should jailbreak your device.
#1 Installous
Download almost any App Store application for free straight onto your Ipod Touch/Iphone and be able to sync them to Itunes just like if you used the App Store. Search through games, books, photography even weather to find that app that you wanted.
#2 Use Winterboard and Cydia to download and install themes to your Ipod/Iphone
Tired of the black background and boring Sliders? Well all you need is Cydia and Winterboard. Use Cydia to search through thousands of themes and find that perfect theme (I'm working on my own layout creator for download I'll upload it soon) Don't want any static background? There are backgrounds that change picture every so often and also video backgrounds.
#3 Thousands of third party apps to download
With Apple's way to strict rules of what can and can't be sold in their app store also with the 100 dollar service charge many good apps wont ever get seen in the app store but with your jailbroken Ipod/Iphone you'll have access to more apps then you can handle so go wild.
#4 BossPrefs
adds more settings to your Ipod/Iphone don't want bluetooth or Wifi on to save battery? Turn them off here partially manage your mail app here. Add a numeric battery icon to your status bar. Find out how much free disk space there is on your Ipod/Iphone without having to use your computer. Disable Apple's killswitch so they can't remove apps they don't like off your Ipod/Iphone. Last but not least Hide Icons we all have icons we don't use and don't want to look at (Itunes, Stocks, Etc. . .) with Hide Icons you can remove those pesky icons from your springboard.
#5 OpenSSH
Manually manage your Ipod/Iphone's directorys with OpenSSH thousands of possibilities. Change your themes add Roms for your emulators and much more. Caution how you use it you could delete or romove something you need.
#6 Completely Reversible
Don't like your Ipod/Iphone jailbroken? You can restore it to your old firmware easily and never have to be reminded of it again.
#7 Cycorder and Snapture (Iphone only)
Record video on your Iphone with Cycorder the fully functioning app records at 15 Fps and has sound. Saves videos as MPEG format so you can view them on your computer.
catch fast moving objects with multiple pictures with Snapture
#8 Turn-By-Turn GPS (Iphone only)
with xGPS you can get GPS with voice right on your Iphone theres no more need for that Tom Tom anymore. You can't find any GPS software on the App Store Apple wont allow it.
I hope this helps you make a decision on jailbreaking your Ipod/Iphone.
Did I miss something? If you think I should add something I missed leave your idea in the comments I'll add it as soon as i read it.

My Personally Recommended Ipod/Iphone apps.

For anyone who Isn't sure what they should download here's a list of third party and apple apps I've enjoyed.
Third Party Applications
Winterboard - helps customize your springboard with Backgrounds, Docks, App icons Batteries and much more.
MxTube - Allows you to download YouTube videos on your Ipod Touch/Iphone and playback without WiFi.
Bossprefs - Settings manager lets you Disable Apple Killswitch (Apple's way of keeping tabs on your Ipod /Iphone by giving them access to removing any app off your Ipod) and being able to hide app icons that you don't use to clean up your springboard.
mQuickDo - For this one if you have $7 lying around its more then worth it it creates a virtual home and power button on your Ipod/Iphone this is probably the first on my list to buy. It comes with a three day trial but after that you have to buy it. This is an excelent app for those of you whos home buttons don't work or just want to extend the life of your device. (Very cheap alternative to buying a new device.)
Backgrounder - Lets you run an app in the background While you use a different app.
Installous - Allows you to download (Almost) any app that's in the App Store for free straight to your device.
NES - Emulator that lets you play NES Roms (games) on your Ipod/Iphone.
snes4iphone - Lets you play Super NES Roms on your Ipod.
gpSPhone - Lets you play GameBoy Advance Roms on your Ipod.
App Store Applications

TouchGrind - Play with a skateboard on your Ipod/Iphone! Do flips and grinds to raise your score and become the best.
Fast&Furious - Race around the streets and caves just like the movie!
JellyCar - (Free) drive and maneuver your car to the finish.
Real Racing - Definatly one of the best racing games around. Real Racing sets a new bar in iPod Touch driving games.
MGSTouch - Play as snake to kill your enemies in this first person shooter.
Shooter - Love the movie? Play as Bob Lee Swagger to kill the enemies with your sniper rifle.
FieldRunners - Stratically place attack towers so that you can last as long as possible.

FML - Having a bad day? Here's something to cheer you up read about other peoples days from the website Fmylife.com this will bring you happness even during your worst days. (caution!! highly adictive!!) Also a pretty good social tool show your friends and try not to laugh at other peoples misfortune.
