Although its the era of a new ios version but still there have been a lot of searches in lately about the APPCAKE ios 5.1.1 . For those users who still own an old iphone, perferably iphone 3g,iphone3gs,iphone 4 and are still on ios 5.1.1 , ios 5 , ios 6 , ios 6.1.1 and have jailbreak and cydia installed. DOnt bother looking for appcake ios version for your ios. You will end up dissapointed. Well not for ios 6 users maybe but the appcake for ios 5.1.1 is no more.
Why Appcake ios 5.1.1 is Dead ?
Appcake is a good installous alternative and has been the heart of many users since the dawn of installous. It has provided users with many cracked free ipa’s and applications but since time, it has shown unloyalty to the old ios versions. With the updates in ios , Appcake is also being updated to support the latest version of apple. Earlier when you could go on cydia and add a repo , download appcake version 3.9 or lower and then run on your iphone with ios 5,6 . Those days no longer exist.
You could find many tutorials telling you how to install appcake on ios 5.1.1 but those are aged, old tutorials on google . They will help you no more.
I wanted to tell you about appcake that why is appcake dead ? the answer is that as new inventions of apple are coming. People are now getting newer iPhones which support ios 7 and ios 8. As majority of the users are on ios 7 and ios 8 and to meet up with the requirements of cydia. Appcake has been updated to support the new apple ios versions. You cannot find app cake below than ios 7. If you are able to somehow do install it , you will not be able to install any app, as those applications will only support ios 7 and ios 8. So on both sides, you get a fall.
What Dosen’t work for Appcake ios 5.1.1 ?
The things that dosen’ t work for appcake on iso 5.1.1 are two things.
- Older appcake repo for ios 6, ios 5 and ios 4 which is http://cydia.iphonecake.com . It will give you an error that repo cannot be added or source not found.
- The older application of appcake for ios 5.1 , ios 6 , ios 4 . I think that they have been deleted from cydia and are no longer available.
- The apps found on appcake server for older ios versions. Because they are no longer available or they will not be able to run on your iphone,ipad because of its updated compatibility.
So what you should DO ?
Now what you should do ? . Is there no way to get free apps and applications ? is your jailbreak useless? .
No . You can always enjoy the fruits of jailbreak if you have cydia.You can install appsync for your ios version. And you can go to google, search for an application or game that you want to download. Download its older version that your iDevice still supports and install it via iTunes. Pretty simple.
