If you have a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch you may come across custom applications that you would like to install via iTunes so all of your applications are still managed in one place. I originally thought that I would just be able to drag the applications directly into iTunes, sync my iPod Touch with iTunes, and begin using my new application. I believe this used to be the case before iPhone OS 3.0 was released which is the version of firmware installed on my Touch. Anyhow I attempted to proceed by following the below steps and ran into an error also noted below.
First Attempt To Install Unsigned Application On iPod Touch With Firmware 3.0 Via iTunes:
- Load Application In iTunes: I dragged the application I had downloaded into iTunes without issue. It now showed up in the iTunes application list when syncing my iPod Touch.
- Sync Verification: I then plugged in my Touch, clicked on it in iTunes, clicked the Applications tab, and made sure that the new application was checked to be synced.
- Attempted Sync: Now I clicked Sync and the application looked like it was being installed. After the syncing process was done I received an error 0xE8008001 stating there was an unknown error.
The error in step three above was actually caused because the application I was attempting to install was not signed which is required for all applications being installed on your iPhone or iPod Touch and an example of such an error is shown in the below image.
Luckily if your iPhone or Touch is jailbroken and using Cydia then you can follow the steps below and still install unsigned applications via iTunes.
Install Unsigned Applications On iPhone or Touch With Firmware 3.0+ Via iTunes:
- Launch Cydia: First double click the Cydia desktop icon which will launch the application as shown below.
- Cydia Sources: First click the Manage in the bottom Cydia navigation menu which will open the window below.
Now click on Sources to open the package source management window as shown below.
- Add New Source: Click the Edit button located in the top right of the window shown in the above image which will allow you to add new sources, edit current sources, or delete current sources. After clicking the Edit button a new button titled Add will appear in the top left of the window so click that to add cydia.hackulo.us as shown below. Once you have the new source location filled in click the Add Source button to complete the addition.
**NOTE** You may be required to reboot your iPhone or iPod Touch after installing the cydia.hackulo.us source as noted by pinkurinal in the comments. Keep this in mind when attempting to install AppSync below.
- Search For AppSync: After you have added the new source above it might take a moment for the new packages to sync but once they do go back to the Cydia home screen and then click the Search button located on the right side of the bottom navigation. Type “AppSync” in the search window and click the blue Search button which should provide results similar to the below image.
- Install AppSync: Now install the correct version of AppSync based on the firmware version on your iPhone or iPod Touch. In my case I have firmware version 3.0 on my Touch so I installed AppSync for OS 3.0 by clicking on the app in the search results. After clicking on the app in the search results click on the Install button in the top right corner of the window as shown below.
After clicking Install the details of AppSync will display and you will need to click the Confirm button also in the top right corner of the window as shown in the below image.
The AppSync source will now downloaded and install on your iDevice. Once completed a screen similar to the below will display and allow you to return to Cydia while AppSync will be installed and ready to use.
- Sync Apps Via iTunes: Now return to iTunes and drag the unsigned application into iTunes and then click the Sync button to sync the applications with the jailbroken iPhone or Touch that now has AppSync installed. The signature verification is removed from the Springboard with AppSync so the error will no longer appear and you will be able to use the unsigned application you have downloaded or created.
Hope this helps some people get around the 0xE8008001 error received in iTunes when attempting to install unsigned applications on jailbroken devices. This will not work on a device that is not jailbroken.
thank you very much!!!!!

Hello Mustafa,
Did you add “http://” before cydia.hackulo.us so you are actually adding http://cydia.hackulo.us . If not verify your Internet connection. I just tested that repository again and it seems to be functioning without issue.

How come that after adding http://cydia.hackulo.us and doing a search in Cydia on “Appsync” that there are no search results? After pressing teh search button the screen remains empty. I am on wi-fi, how long am I supposed to wait for the search?
Does this have anything to do with the 3 GS and 3.01 firmware?
Hello 3 GS user,
It should work fine on 3GS with 3.0.1. Make sure you are searching in Cydia. The first time I did this I was searching in Icy which displayed emtpy results for me.
Thanks.
alex
Excellent-works a treat.

i just jail broke my phone with blackrain for the iphone 3gs 3.1.2, I install appsync 3.1, i downloaded a crack app. I sync it and it works fine and it is in the itune application list. Then I go restore it to factory default and unjail break it. But when I try to sync the apps, it gives me the ” 0xe8008001″. Anyone have any idea how to solve this. thanx
Hello jim,
You won’t be able to keep hacked apps after the iPhone is restored to the default software. The default software has checks that will not allow apps not purchased from the iTunes App Store to run on the iPhone which is why you have to jailbreak it for these applications to work.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.
alex
Thanks a loooooooooooot

Hi,
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I have downloaded an app via itunes and have succesfully gone through the process of loading appsync but i still cant load the app through itunes. do you have any advice? i have already re-booted my phone.
Thanks
Hello Tim,
I don’t to be honest. This works for all unsigned apps that I am aware of? Are you able to install other unsigned applications? Is the application you are trying to install actually signed? What is the application?
Thanks.
alex
I got it to work in the end… thanks! tim
Hello Tim,
Great. Did you have to do something other than what was outlined in the article? If so and you don’t mind sharing post a reply that details what you ended up having to do. It may help the next person in a similar scenario.
Thanks for responding.
Thanks.
alex
Yeah, sure. I had my phone in itunes and i was hitting sync but the app wasnt loading. There was another option which was “sync applications” that when you click it a warning message came up stating that “existing apps on the phone would be deleted if not held in itunes as well”. initally i didnt choose this as i was worried it would wipe my cydia program but found out that isnt the case. so in the end i just clicked that and it worked normally, it was just me being stupid! Tim
Hello Tim,
Awesome. Thanks man. Glad you got it working!
Thanks.

Works, awesome…also works with rock
Hello jo,
Thanks for the compliment and taking the time to leave feedback. I am not familiar with rock… what is it?
Thanks.
alex
Rock is another program like cydia
Hello Foxhound,
Thanks. I will have to check out Rock. Are there benefits over Cydia or are they fairly similar?
Thanks.
alex
apparently it’s faster (i guess so…)
It looks cooler too
Hello jo,
Cool. I am going to check out Rock and see if I end up liking it better than Cydia.
Thanks.

Hi there,

No problem. It is a fairly small package though so hopefully even with a slower Internet connection it will install for you fairly quickly. Good luck.
Thanks.

Hey guys…it seems like all of the help given on here has been a success….and I’M STUCK!! I have a jailbroken 3G with OS 3.1…i have appsync 3.1 from install0.us on it…but it won’t let me sync with any itunes version. I currently have itunes 9, but have completely removed it and tried on 8, 8.2, and 7. The best response I can get from itunes is error message “itunes could not connect to this iphone because an unknown error occurred (OxE8000022).” What can I do??? any help is much appreciated! I wish I could, at the very least, connect it to restore it and start over…but I can’t even do that! Thanks guys!
Hello Teresa,
I have yet to see this issue. I would suggest attempting to get the device into DFU mode. Click this article which discusses entering DFU mode with a broken power button. Let us know what resolves the issue.
Thanks.
alex
Yes….Thanks Alex!! I was able to restore it through DFU…just re-jailbroke it and am starting the process over again. ;) Thanks so much for the help!!! You’re my hero!
Hello Teresa,
No problem. DFU mode will recover pretty much any issue on the iPod Touch or iPhone. I appreciate the kind words and definitely glad to hear that you got everything back in order.
Thanks.
alex
thanks a bunch. . . . this is a big help

Thanks.

Hi. I have a different problem. When downloading the applications with google chrome on apptrackr.org I can’t open them with itunes because their format is ipa.exe. What can I do?
Hello khaled,
I apologize but I am not familiar with apptracker. I would hesitate to use any applications that are downloaded as executables but it may be fine. If you figure out a solution we would love to hear what it is. You also may have more luck getting a response by posting the question on Engage.
Thanks.
alex
I’m not sure if this will help but try watching this video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjKrYgCEM-Y
I think you can do the same with .ipa files
So you’ll be able to right click and remove the .exe extension thereby making it an .ipa file.
I’ve been able to do this with ipa.zip files
Hello E,
Thanks for taking the time to post this information. Things will definitely work with .ipa files but what I am confused about is how he is getting the ipa.exe file. I downloaded a bunch of apps from the site he mentions above and they always downloaded as .zip or .ipa files which I was able to install without issue. He posted on Engage which I replied to there as well. Anyway I am waiting for his response to the application that is being downloaded that provides a ipa.exe as it sounded from his initial post that all of the files he was downloading were downloading as ipa.exe though I was unable to find one application on that site that downloaded in that format. I tested three different apps in three different categories to try to duplicate but was unable to do so… Anyway let me know what you think under that Engage post.
Thanks again for taking the time to post the link to that YouTube video.
Thanks.
alex
Sure thing alex,
I think that when downloading from apptrack.org the site that the ipa files are hosted at have a problem with .ipa files – possibly search for them and remove them. Therefore people add a .zip or.exe extension to them to avoid them being found.
Therefore I suggest taking the ipa.exe file and simply renaming it as per the video (remove the .exe part) Windows says are you sure you want to do this. you say yes and it then displays as an .ipa file.
Hello E,
I see what you are saying now. I just must have not run into one of the sites that modifies the ending to .exe. Thanks for the explanation.
Thanks.
alex
thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! daaamn i love u dawg good job keep doing what you do or if ur just reporting it thnx for that to
Hello james,

Hey Guys, i download an application from a certain website on my pc, the fuile is .ipa and it open on itunes, the problem is 0xE8008001 pops when im syncing my iphone, searched for solutions, all solutions are if i downloade4d this app through cydia and change the firwire.. but the problem is i download it through pc.. what should be done
Cheers
Hello Another Khaled,
You need to have your device jailbroken to be able to install unsigned applications. If it is jailbroken then you need to install AppSync. If both of those don’t work then the file is either corrupt or you are doing something incorrectly.
Thanks.

hello,
i am having problem installing apps on my itouch, its showing the same error 1×8008001. my device is not jailbroken what should i do…..
Hello kapil,
Are these applications purchased through the iTunes store? If not the error you are receiving means that they are unsigned applications and cannot be installed on your device. Each application that you install on your iPod Touch or iPhone has security measures implemented by Apple to make sure that applications are not resold or given away after being purchased through iTunes.
Thanks.
alex
I’m not too familiar with apple products and I was just wondering if this is how you get apps that you download from torrents (.ipa file extensions) to work on the ipod touch 3rd gen 32 gb because I get an error when i try to move the apps from itunes into my ipod saying it can’t (0xe8008001)…
Hello Joanna,
If your device is not jailbroken you will not be able to install these types of applications because iTunes requires that the applications are signed before they are installed. I would recommend sticking to downloading and installing applications only from the iTunes store if you don’t know much about torrents and the application authentication process.
Thanks.
alex
Thanks man but thet dosen t work with my iphone i do exactly as you say i add cydia.hackulo.us and when i try to install package as AppSync for OS 3.0 a get this mesage:
The requested modifications cannot be applied due to required dependencies or conflicts that cannot be automatically found or fixed.please help i need it so much.
Hello zlatko,
What software did you jailbreak the iPhone with? What are the main packages running on the iPhone? If you could list the error word for word below it is possible we can provide other helpful information.

Hello mate.
When I try to add the new source “cydia.hackulo.us” I get an error message in my ipod saying
“DID NOT FIND REPOSITORY
The indicaten repository could not be found. This could be because you are trying to add a legacy installer repository(these are not supported) Also, this interface is only capable of working with exact repository URLs. If you host a repository and are having issues please contact the autor of Cyndia with any questions you have”
I´m using Itunes 3.1.2
Do you have any help?
Hello Alex,
I have not used that specific version of firmware when attempting to install unsigned apps using iTunes so it is possible that they have added further checks to make sure the applications are signed properly. I would check to see if AppSync is compatible with that version of the iPhone OS. Hope that helps.
Thanks.
alex
Got that wrong
I have Itunes 9.03.15
And OS in Ipod is 3.1.2
Hello Alex,
Please see my note in the previous comment. I believe it is possible that AppSync may not be compatible with that version of the iPhone OS. AppSync also may be compatible with that version of the iPhone OS and it could be a different issue however that is the first place I would look. Thanks for posting feedback.
Thanks.

Hello Sara,
Are you still having this issue? I have yet to see the specific error but the more details you can provide the more likely someone else responding will be able to assist. If you end up resolving the issue please let us know so others having similar issues will be able to resolve.
Thanks.
alex
Try add other sources, like, xsellize or clubiphone, there are good videos in youtube!
Just search for” cydia sourses”….good luck! :D

Hello Homan,
No problem at all. We appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. Hopefully you find other useful articles on the site as well.

Anyhow we always appreciate any and all feedback.
Thanks.

i jailbroke my itouch which then my itouch was starting to get slow so i unjailbroke by updating it and the appps that i think are not signed did not sync cause of the error.
is there any way i can take the apps and have an itouch that is not jailbroken with all the apps that i had when it was jailbroken without the error occuring
Hello george,
There isn’t a way to do that. This is primarily the reason people jailbreak their phones. Apple is strict about this policy since they make lots of their money from the iTunes store so if it were easy to install any unsigned app they would lose tons of money. If you need those applications you should jailbreak the iPhone again. Hope that helps.
Thanks.
alex
does this works on 3.1.2 firmware or does not ?????
Hello muhamed,
I believe this will work without issue on iPhone OS 3.1.2 as long as the iPhone is jailbroken and you can install AppSync you should be fine.
Thanks.
alex
plz help…….I’ve installed appsync for 3.1 version cause my iphone is 3gs with 3.1.2 firmware but the problem of itune error 0xE8008001 still not resolved. Any idea?

What did you use to jailbreak the iPhone on version 3.1.2? What apps are you trying to install that are providing this error? The more details you can provide the more likely someone will respond with a resolution.
Thanks.
alex
I’m having the same problem but i think this may be due to the wifi i was using.
Is there any way to install appsync without Wifi?
Hello Mai,
You could try downloading it to a computer and then syncing it to the iPod Touch however I assume you will get an error because it is not a signed application though I have not verified it. You might try going to a coffee shop or somewhere else where you can try another wifi connection.
Good luck.
Thanks.

hey, how can i install cydia :S
plz can u help me??
Hello Mohammad,
You might start by a simple search on Google which I assume is how you located this web site. Without you providing any details about what step you are stuck on or details regarding any errors you may have received when attempting to install Cydia then there is not much I could do to assist.
Thanks.

Dear Alex,
I just JB my Ipod touch 2g 3.1.3 by spirit and it wont let me install cracked app. (error 8008001). Any suggestions on that?
Thanks
Hello Inzaghi,
I am not familiar with spirit so I am not sure I can be much help. Could you provide some more information on how you JB’d the Touch and what is installed as the base software now? I would imagine that there is some third party application that is similar to AppSync but since I have never used spirit I cannot guarantee that.
If you were able to resolve the issue we would love to hear what resolved the problem so others that JB their Touch or iPhone using spirit can install unsigned applications.
Thanks.
alex
hey alex,
when i try to download Appsync is says “Error: Prepare Archives, i wasnt able to locate file for the us.hackulo.appsync31 package. this might mean you need to manually fix this package.”
my ipod touch is a OS 3.1.3 does that mean i have to degrade it down to 3.1.2 then re jailbreak it?
thanks
Hello justin,
To be honest I am not 100%. When I jailbroke my iPod Touch it was many Apple OS versions back. It does sound like that might be an issue but I would recommend researching what versions of iPhone OS that AppSync works with and then go from there. Once you have it resolved we would love to hear what the solution was.
Thanks.
alex
hi/hola/salutte
Thank you for the detailed description on how to fix this issue. I have had this problem on my now locked iphone and I did not know what it was so I upgraded via itunes to 3.1.3 filmware and thus locked my iphone.
Now I purchased a new ipod instead and I had the same issue and I was about to get mad but here comes a man who have made our day. Thank you and lots of love!
Hello Diman,
No problem at all. Thank you for such nice feedback. We are always glad to hear when one of our articles resolves an issue.
Thanks.
alex
Hi,
when i try to download Appsync is says “Error : Running, Sub-process/usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)”
Can u let me known what is the problem….
Thankssss.
Hello Keat,
It sounds to me like there is either another package being installed or a process that did not close properly. There is also the possibility that the dpkg application package is not installed somehow but I would I would first try completely shutting down your iPhone or iPod Touch and try the steps in the article again. Make sure that the iDevice fully powers off before attempting again so you can make sure that any hung process is restarted. If this does not work let us know and we will attempt to come up with another solution.
Thanks.
alex
I am recommending you to everybody :)) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello TJ,
Who is Archange? Anyhow do a search in the Internet for jailbreaking your iPhone or iPod Touch and you should find plenty of information. This article is specifically regarding installing unsigned applications once Cydia or some other base software is installed.
Thanks.

Thanks for the help Alex,
my friend has a jailbroken ipod touch but does not have a wireless internet so he can only connect via his p.c, i was wondering if there was a way to do this just by using a p.c.
Thanks
RyanMan
Hello RyanMan,
Absolutely there is a way. You would need to download the AppSync application to the computer and then copy it from the computer to the iPod Touch. I know that is not many details and the reason being is I have not had to actually do it that way yet. If I get some time tonight I am going to write an article about how to do that and I will post a follow up comment once I do. If you guys get it figured out first please list the details here and I will use those to write an article about the process for others to use in the future.
Good luck.
Thanks.
alex
You may also want to include, after you add the source from hackulo, you restart your iphone/itouch before downloading AppSync.
I had issues installing the AppSync, but when I restarted, it worked :)
Hello pinkurinal,
Thanks for the tip. I wasn’t required to restart the Touch I performed the above steps on however I went ahead and added it as a *note below step three in the directions below so if anyone experiences the same thing you did they can simply reboot and then install AppSync. Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback.
Thanks.
alex

Hello dreammers,
I would suggest downgrading to 3.1.2 or 3.1.1 or similar.
Thanks.
alex
@ dreammers
I just got my Touch and upgraded it to 3.1.3. I used the AppSync for 3.1 and it worked like a dream.
Apps are installing with zero problems. Hope this helps.

My ipod was jailbroken but it isnt anymore, and i still get that error message. any way i can resolve it without jailbreaking it again? thanks in advance
Hello Shayne,
If you want to install the unsigned apps then no. If you just want to get rid of the error messages remove the unsigned apps from iTunes and the iPhone if they exist in both places and this will get rid of the error for you.
Thanks.
alex
Hello
I followed the steps up to step 3 when i put in the url and add it its says {Did not find repository}
So im stuck
Any help/advise would be appreciated
Hello Shaun,
Will do my best to help out. That repository does exist so its either been typed in incorrectly or there may be some form of Internet issue for the device you are attempting to install it on.
What iPhone iOS are you running? Have you had Cydia installed for a long time or is this a first time Cydia install? The more details you can provide the better the chance is that I will be able to provide a resolution for your issue.
If you did already resolve the issue please let us know how it was completed so others may be able to resolve their issues.
Thanks.
alex
Hello Alex
Ive made really sure that its typed in correctly and this is my first time with jailbreaking meaning cydia and everything is new to me.
Ive have an Ipod Touch 3Gen v3.1.3
Must my Ipod be connected to the internet whiles adding the url if so that will explain my problem.
Hello Shaun,
You should be connected to the Internet at the time you are adding the new package repository on your iPod Touch. Cydia is going to attempt to verify it over the Internet and then it will be required to download the packages over the Internet as well.
Thanks.
alex
alex mine’s weird ive got hackulo thing but i cant find the appsync for 3.0
Thanks VIncent
Hello Vincent,
I have yet to see that problem or hear of others having the same problem. You might try removing hackolu and adding it again.
Thanks.
alex
Hello again…
Also try Corey’s suggestion below where he says o try and install installous.
Thanks.
alex
I have the same problem
Hello Ammer Omari,
Please review the rest of the comments as they also provide solutions. It is best to provide as many details as possible regarding your issue as you are more likely to get a solution or more detailed feedback regarding your issue if you do this.
Below Corey mentions installing “installous” and that should install the proper version of AppSync with it. Do you see the installous application that you can install?
Thanks.
alex
Sometimes there is no specific appsync. Once the hackulo rep. is installed, install an app called installous and it will install the correct version of appsync with it. Hope this helps
Hello Corey,
Great. Thanks for the suggestion of installous. It will definitely help others…
Thanks.
alex
Also, installous is an incredible app for getting more apps. Although it is not recommended for the same reasons the hackulo rep. is not recommended
Hello Corey,
Thanks again for the suggestion. Are you saying that hackulo is not recommended because it could install different versions of apps that could eventually lead to conflicts? Just curious what the reason of *not recommended* is… Thanks again.
Thanks.
alex
Hey there!
I just jailbroke a 3G firmware 4.0.1 device and get the very same error code.
When i try to get to hackulo.us it says an error message like keyexpired. This is where i am stucked.
Help would be greatly appreciated :)
Hello Valami,
I have yet to see that error. Are you connected to the Internet when you try to add hackulo.us? If you were able to resolve the problem we would love to hear what solved it.
Thanks.

After trying to add the hackolu thing i get the error message “Did not find repository”. I know i typed in the URL correctly, and I am 100% sure my internet connection is good enough. Any tips on how to fix this?
Hello KK,
What device are you on? What have you jailbroken the device with? What version of software and hardware for each of the previous questions?
Thanks.
alex
hey…i’ve iphone V3.01 …when trying to install appsync v3.0.1 note appears sayin: the requested modifications cannot be applied due to requirement dependencies or conflicts that cannot be automatically fpund or fixed..
-plz can any1 help with this…
Hello wang,
You would need to try and figure out what the conflicts are. Anymore details you can provide regarding the conflicts will assist someone providing a resolution. You might also read through all of the other comments and try stuff like installing installous which will install AppSync with it.
Thanks.
alex
ive followed the steps above and its saying in itunes that it is installing fine now with no ipod not signed messages now but when i look on my ipod i cant see the icon

Thanks.

dear alex..
i have upgraded my ipod touch OS from 4.0 to 4.1 accidentally..
after it’s updated. i can’t jailbreak my ipod..
do you know how to downgrade the OS from 4.1 to 4.0
highly apreciate your prompt response.. :)
Hello ferdy,
I don’t have instructions on how to downgrade an iPod Touch running iOS 4.1 to iOS 4.0 however I am sure it is possible. I would look at how to download the 4.0 iOS directly and then specify in iTunes that you want to upgrade (which will actually be downgrading) to the version you download. Once you have a solution it would be great if you could post a response with the instructions.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.

When I search for App Sync, the serch result tell me OS 3.1 OS 3.2 OS 4.0 OS 4.1
There is not the OS 3.0
Thanks.
Hello Sea,
I have not installed AppSync on a Touch or Iphone since I wrote this article nearly a year ago so I cannot confirm one way or the other if the application is still available for iOS 3.0. I would imagine it is still available though as there have been many comments from people lettings us know that the article assisted them in resolving their issues. Once you find a solution we would love to hear what it is.
Thanks.
alex
I found the AppSync for OS 3.0 to the source (http://www.sinfuliphonerepo.com).

Hey, i am installing the Appsync 4.1 version to my iphone… and its stuck at 0 percent download. Would that be an issue with the internet speed, or the iphone itself?
Hello James,
AppSync is a really small application so it would probably indicate an Internet connection problem. The entire download and install should take around a minute total.
Thanks.
alex
Hello, my name is Luiz Phellipe, and I am Brazilian …
need to know one thing … is my iPhone 3G 8GB and I can not in any way to download for OS 3.0 because AppSync not have any app with that name there. Only the 3.1 has up …
knows really need your help and wisdom
please have eight games to be passed on to my iPhone but I can not pass because of unknown error “0xE8008001”
Hello Luiz,
Upgrade your iOS to a jailbroken 3.1 iOS version and then you can install AppSync.
Thanks.

Thanks.

thnxxx
is there any way to run internet on ipod touch from pc via usb cable…???
Hello Nishchhal,
No problem.
I don’t think Internet on the iPod Touch is possible over the USB cable however you could connect your desktop or laptop via Ethernet and then connect adhoc from the iPod Touch to the other computer with an Internet connection and use Internet that way.
Thanks.
alex
i have downloaded Cydia onto my itunes and synced all apps to my ipod. whenever i try to sync Cydia into my ipod, it says it cannot be installed because there is no signature. i am trying to do this without jailbreaking my ipod, so how would i get the signature with out needing to first jailbreak my ipod touch? software version 3.1.2. Thanks.
Hello bob,
This is not possible. You will have to jailbreak your iPhone to be able to install Cydia.
Thanks.
alex
I am new to this one, i have been using my iphone 3g for a while.

se me subio a las 4.3 y yo…… U_U lol! xDD , ara voy tirando de los gratis -.-, y ara no se si lo tengo jailbrekeao despues de restaurarlo ,y luego , me baje el ETERNAL LEGACY en —–> iphonecacke , lo sincronizo y al terminar la instalacion me sale “” error OxE800100 , y obviamente no me deja instarlo,
“LOSIENTO POR ESCRIBIRTE UN BIBLIAAA XD”
-podria jailbrekear mi iphone 4g con la version 4.3 ??? ” si podria porfavor indicame como lo podria hacer ,tendria riesgos ?? al ser ultima version seran versiones beta el jailbreak , no se, no toy muy seguro ”
-como podria arreglar ese error “”” OxE800100 “””” yo creo ke no lo tengo jailbrekeao el iphone 4g , pero e leido ke si te sale eso,es ke hay ke jailbrekearlo y pones algo de sync nose ke del installous

Hello JB,
Try greenpoison. Good luck.
Thanks.
alex
u speak english or spanish ?? sorry if u no understand me :)
u think i can do it with green poison with ios 4.3 ???
Hello JB,
I speak English but I understood what you were saying. Greenpoison is updating the quickest right now so if anything can do it then it will be greenpoison. I personally removed the jailbreak because it slowed my iPhone to a crawl. Good luck…
Thanks.

kk !! thankss ! tomorrow i do it ^^ here in spain its to late haha ” 5:21 pm ”
and the other error man?? why i cant install the eternal legacy, itunes to iphone i need something ?? :S
I have installed AppSync,4.0+, but I keep getting this when I try to put unsigned apps on my iPod Touch:
The app “myApp” was not installed on the iPod “ipod touch” because an unknown error occured (0xE8003FFE).
What should I do to fix this?
By the way, I used greenpoison. It worked very well (a little slower than it said, but still very good). If I want to put my iPod back to normal (remove the whole jailbreak thing), how can I do it?
Hello Justin,
You could try reinstalling AppSync. It is also possible that the latest version of AppSync is not working with the latest iOS from Apple. Once you find a resolution let us know what it is.
Thanks.
alex

Hey alex, I have iphone 4.3.1 factory UNLOCKED… i have same problem as shown above error 0xE8008001 , I cant install any application on my iphone….also i cant install and download cydia since i coudnt find a web to download through! please reply
Hello Joseph,
This would indicate that you are attempting to install unsigned apps on an iPhone that is not jailbroken or not jailbroken properly. I would suggest reinstalling the factory iOS software or trying to jailbreak the iPhone again. You need to have AppSync installed to install unsigned apps and you must have a jailbroken iPhone to install AppSync.
Thanks.
alex
yes I’ve jailbroken my iphone and installed cydia and everything is alright, any way thanks for replying and helping alex, but their is a tiny problem that some applications need to authorize on my computer (itunes) …
Hello Joseph,
Do you have AppSync installed? If so what version?
Thanks.
alex

Hello Joseph,

It won’t work for me, I already have appsync installed. I have a 4.2.1 firmware I got the appsync from sinfuliphonerepo, it’s the appsync 4.0+
:( help…
Hello romerp,
I am sure things have changed quite a bit since this article was written in 2009. Unfortunately I no longer have the need to have my iPhone jailbroken so it has been quite awhile since I have used the various methods to do so. Once you find a resolution let us know what it is so when others come to the site looking for answers they will see your comment.
Thanks.

Dear All,
i have iphone 3g and i jail break from market before it was 4.2 but after jail break its not accepting same version now i have 4.1.. i try to get skype but itunes giving error OXE8008001. please help me to solve this problem.
Hello safeer,
Sounds as if you may have applications that are cracked on the iPhone with non-jailbroken iOS or you have not installed AppSync which allows you to sync cracked applications via iTunes.
Thanks.
alex

I have a jailbroken iphone on iOS 4.3.5, when i try to sync some Apps i got from itunes, it shows 0xE8003FFE after the installion completes. Please i need your help.
Hello stunblisa,
What type of iPhone is it? It would appear that you have either downloaded an application that only works on iOS 5 or that you have an iPhone 3 device that is having issues with one of the newer applications. Likely it can be isolated to a single application so you should try to sync an application at a time until you can figure out where the problem is. I believe it to be related to the below quote from StackOverflow.
“In iOS5 Apple drops the armv6 architecture from the ARCHS_STANDARD_32_BIT”
Thanks.
alex
nice info…good share…thanks…
