After doing several instructional videos on my YouTube, I noticed a large amounts of comments in regards to Jailbreaking and Cydia. I would just like to give a brief description as to "What Cydia is?" and "Why Must you jailbreak in order to get Cydia ( And the apps that are on Cydia)?
Well, first of all Cydia is an application that allows you to download applications rejected from AppStore. Third Party app developers are allowed to submit their source (ex. http://sourcesbelongshere.repo.com) which allows you to download and install restricted apps. The applications available in cydia are a variety of tweaks and cracks that alter the appearance of your idevice and/or functionality. There are themes, apps, tweaks, mods, and ect... which in most of the cases are free to you ( being that you have the right source). By jailbreaking your device you will automatically download cydia and some of the restrictions apple and your cell phone provider has place on your device. There is another restriction that is lifted from your device and that is the ability to unlock your device for other GSM Carriers.
Underneath is a list of what is offered and what they mean.
WinterBoard: allows you to change the appearance of your phone with the use of themes
Themes: are designed icons, wallpapers, sounds and lockscreens Changes the appearance of your phone's display
Installous: installous allows you to download cracked AppStore apps for free
Video ringtones: allows your phone to display videos in place of your ringtones
