Installer is not completely useless. When the jailbreak for 2.0 was released, Cydia used in place of Installer. Some will say Cydia is a more is better than Installer. IMO, I do like Cydia more than Installer. You're going to see alot of the same apps in Cydia are showing up in Installer.


As for "absolutely necessary apps", it's a matter of what you're looking to do with you phone. A few I would recommend would be OpenSSH (which is pretty much mandatory) and Winterboard (if you want themes). I'm sure there are others, but these are the two i can think of off hand.

When does Cydia support Fring? I seem to have a problem to install fring with Cydia AND Installer 4. The link just doesn't work (fring.com/iphone.xml), when I try to add a new source. In Cydia there is a problem with the zip and within the Installer the URL doesn't "seem" to be valid.

thank you

EDIT:
Or can someone please explain me, how openSSH works and how I can install fring manually?

EDIT2:
I have the Fring.app on my Iphone now (I used winSCP to FDP it to the iphone), but I can't see the icon on the iphone-screen. That means, I can't use the application. What's the matter?

Thanks for the list.... It sounds like all V1 users are good to upgrade to 2.0 afterall.

If you're jailbroken, and not using "categories" you're missing out. It's phenomenal.
