It seems that many people are dealing with this error “download failed unexpected content” in Installous, which means that the downloaded file is corrupted.
Unfortunately there is no specific fix for this because something is wrong in the downloaded file. The only way that I would recommend to try is to try to download the same file from another download link, If that doesn’t solve the problem and/or you are getting same error on different apps try reinstalling the Installous.
There is a huge number of users who facing “Blue Question Mark” when trying to download an app in Installous. Unfortunately mine is working fine so it’s hard to bring a solution for it!
Randy upload the following screen shot on our Facebook Page showing the blue question mark when he try to download an app!
Any idea about that?
Update: It seems that this is because of heavy load on download provider websites such as Mediafire.

Today I found an interesting comment about installous on one of iDB posts let’s take a look at this.
What you do when you install App Store apps through Installous is STEALING, Stealing from developers who have worker hard on apps that they deserve to make money off of. After you’re done installing the equivalent of the apps I’ve (and many users) have paid tens of dollars, and in my case, hundreds of dollar throughout the years of using the App Store, it would be the equivalent of holding up a supermarket cashier and stealing a hundred bucks.
That is true, using installous is illegal. But personally I use it because Apple banned my country and I can’t download any thing from AppStore. Every time when I want to use AppStore I get 1009 error!
I think developers should first tell Apple to open the AppStore doors to us then claim against installous.
Many of our users experiencing errors with installous and ask me for solution. I found fixes for many of these errors in installous talk forum so I decided to aggregate these along with the solutions in one post. Hope it will help you to fix the problems.
By the way you can freely ask your questions and/or suggestions in comment section of this post.

As one knows Installous is a very simple way to install AppStore apps for free on iPhone, iPad & iPod Touch. Recently hackulos Team updates installous to ver 4.4. In this article I try to teach how to install installous on your iPodTouch, same instructions also apply to iPhone & iPad users.
[Via Hackulos]
By the releases of installous 4, hackulous introduce a new way to handle ipa files (AppStore Apps) on the iDevices called “LocalSharing“. With LocalSharing you can easily transfer downloaded apps to your computer or other iDevices.
LocalSharing is a feature that lets you transfer cracked applications from one device to another. Imagine you’re with a friend who wants to test an app you tried out. Instead of having to find it and download it, you can simply send it to them via wifi. Installous will use Bonjour to find nearby devices and share the cracked app with them if those devices accept.

Hackulous was released installous 4.4 with a better LocalSharing (Read more) web interface. The new version is available in 20 languages.

Hackulous released the Appsync 4.0+ wich support all iOS 4 versions and also fixes the Game Center & In App Purchases bug.
There are so many AppSync packages in our repository. This madness must end! I’ve combined 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2 AppSync’s into a single package called “AppSync for 4.0+”. This package is reverse compatible and fixes the In App Purchases bug!
You can update it via cydia. Here you can find more information about Appsync.
As one knows apple few days ago released the new iOS (4.3) for iPad, iPhone, etc. I’m sure that you have read a lot in other sites about this new version. By the way I just can say that AppSync & installous are still work with this version. So if you can jailbreak your device you have the chance to use AppStore Apps as free by installing AppSync and installous via Cydia. Here you can find the instructions to do so.
As I read all iDevices can be jailbroken untethered on iOS 4.3.
