My Top 5 Cydia Repos of 2013
With the release of the evasi0n iOS 6 Untethered Jailbreak I thought it would be a good to list my Top 5 Cydia Repos of 2013, there are quite a few Cydia Repos out there but these are the ones I use the most.
How to add Cydia Repos to Cydia:
- Open Cydia by tapping the Cydia icon from your Springboard.
- On Cydia’s main screen, tap the Manage tab at the bottom of the screen.
- Tap Sources.
- Tap the “Edit” button at the top right, then the “Add” button at the top left.
- Now enter the Cydia/APT URL, type in the address and hit Add Source.
- Tap Add Anyway whenever it is applicable.

why iHacksrepo is considered to be illegal? when I add it, it comes out a message sayin something about the safety etc etc. I added it anyway, but while installing I see some red phrases like errors: “POSIX: Connection refused” but apparently there are not any problems. In the end they say: “some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead”. Should I delete it as repo?
You may see errors at the moment as everyone has just Jailbroken their phone and is trying to do exactly the same as you so servers will be busy. Errors should disappear as everything calms down.
iHacksRepo may include paid apps for free which is why you are getting the Illegal Content Message. It is up to you if you want to proceed at this point.
Hope this helps!
thanks! yes i thought so, i’m very impatient!
Would you happen to know if the repo for bigboss is down as I’m having real trouble in trying to add it. I’ve gone as far as reinstalling the JB and IPSW . I have ssh’ed into root and deleted/altered the relevant files and still the bzip2/no-data error occurs
pllllleeeeeaaaaseee if you can help it would be highly appreciated.
Best regards Jim
Great Cydia repositories. I got most of these apps installed on my phone.
