iPod Jailbreak Guide: Revised (For Intel Mac)

[ebel3003]

First off I'd like to disclaim that all I've done is further explain the process of Jailbreaking the iPod Touch. I take no credit or responsibility for the original guide and process, I just felt that less experienced users should understand what they are actually doing and accomplishing. With the knowledge gained from the explanation, you should (hopefully) understand the process and be able to troubleshoot any errors or mistakes you cause. This process is pretty safe, considering that you are only changing software, not hardware, so the device should be completely restorable. This guide will come in two parts Installation and Troubleshooting. I'm open to any contributions and questions. EDIT: Also, this guide was intended for Intel Macs.

Original is located here: http://www.touchdev.net/wiki/Jailbreak_Guide

Extra mirror if you can't use Rapidshare: http://fsandoval.net/jailbreak/

Step 1: Exploiting Safari
The first step is to run the TIFF exploit. Essentially what this is doing, is enabling the application iPHUC to gain access to the root directory of the iPod. This step is straightforward, but do not start if you intend to stop or you will be forced to restore at this point.

With Mobile Safari, open: http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com

Step 2: Using iPhuc to Extract the OS
Files you need:
iPHUC- http://rapidshare.com/files/61505779/Desktop_-_Jailbreak.zip.html
libreadline- http://rapidshare.com/files/61509655/opt.zip.html

Place the iPHUC contents onto your desktop and place the new "opt" folder onto the root portion of your computer. If the "opt" folder exists, place the file in that folder manually.

By using the TIFF exploit, we were able to switch a few folder names around and enable the ability to write to the OS's directories rather than just the Media directory. To start the process of extracting, you will want to start up iPHUC in Terminal.

If we've placed the files on our desktop:
cd Desktop
./iphuc

Execute the following command from within iPHUC:
getfile /dev/rdisk0s1 iphonefs/rdisk0s1 314572800

What the above getfile command is doing, is copying the contents of the OS to a disk image file, which you should save because if you make any mistakes, you can use this later and avoid having to restore and start from scratch.

After iPHUC has finished extracting the OS, find the file which should be located under the iphonefs folder. Rename the file from rdisk0s1 to rdisk0s1.dmg and open it. You should have a new disk image mounted similar to "Snowbird3A109a.UserBundle".

What you will want to do is open the "etc" directory of the disk image and replace the fstab file with the fstab file we were supplied with when we downloaded iPHUC. Once you have done that, you can eject the disk image and start the process of blasting the OS back to the iPod.

To send the newly modified OS back to the iPod, execute this command from within iPHUC:
putfile iphonefs/rdisk0s1.dmg /dev/rdisk0s1

Now exit iPHUC by typing "exit" and restart the iPod using Slide to Power Off. You have now Jailbroken the iPod, but that doesn't mean anything yet. We still need to install the SSH/SFTP Daemon so that we can fix syncing and install new applications.

Step 3: Installing and Starting SSH
Files you need:
INdependence: http://independence.googlecode.com/files/iNdependence_v1.2.1a_bin.dmg

Now what we'll be doing is installing SSH and SFTP so that we can fix Syncing and move new applications to your iPod. To begin we'll need to open up the application INdependence. This step is extremely easy, but can be easily messed up by using hard reboot instead of using Slide to Power Off. Make sure to use Slide to Power Off from here on out!

Move to the SSH tab under INdependence and click Install SSH/SFTP/SCP. Follow the directions they give you, which will be rebooting twice. Once complete, reboot once more using Slide to Power Off.

To confirm that you have SSH running, type the following command:
ssh -l root your.ipods.ip.address
NOTE: Do not take this command literally. First find out your iPod's ip address under Wireless Settings and replace the phrase "your.ipods.ip.address" with the actual iPod ip address.
NOTE 2: In the above command, -l is an L, not a 1.

The default password is "alpine". If you are not presented with any errors, you've logged in correctly and are ready to move onto the next step.

Step 4: Fixing Syncing and Installing Installer.app
Files you need:
Cyberduck- http://cyberduck.ch/

Download and open CyberDuck. Once running, log into your iPod Touch by using the same IP as above, the username root, and the password alpine. Make sure to use SFTP and not regular FTP. Once logged in, you will be presented with the folders on your iPod Touch.

If you aren't there already, navigate to /var/root and rename the following folders:
* Media needs to be renamed to Media_sym
* Mediaold needs to be renamed Media

Reboot your iPod Touch and connect it to iTunes to confirm that you have fixed syncing.

If you've confirmed syncing to be okay, then we're good to start installing applications.

Files you need:
Installer.app- http://iphone.nullriver.com/zips/Installer-2.63.zip

Using SFTP, copy Installer.app to the Applications folder located under the root folder. You will then need to connect via SSH in Terminal to your iPod again. From above:
ssh -l root your.ipods.ip.address
NOTE: Do not take this command literally. First find out your iPod's ip address under Wireless Settings and replace the phrase "your.ipods.ip.address" with the actual iPod ip address.

Once connected to your iPod, run the following commands to open Installer.app on your iPod. We're also going to get a CHMOD out of the way because it's convenient:
chmod -R a+x /Applications/*
/Applications/Installer.app/Installer

If it opened on your iPod, all is good. Now you'll just need to close it, but leave your SSH connection active for the moment. To close it, press CTRL+C on your keyboard.

With Mobile Safari, open: http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/beta/
Tap yes to add it to Installer.app, then using SSH again type the same command as above:
/Applications/Installer.app/Installer

Hit refresh to get the new package listing, scroll down to Trip1PogoStick, tap to get more info, then tap Install. Once installed, reboot the iPod Touch. If all is well, you should be presented with a new Installer icon on your springboard. You can now start installing applications.

Thanks for reading, hopefully this provided a little more explanation and is a little less vague. I just wanted to help out less experienced users, so if you don't find this useful, please don't flame! :) I may post a few fixing solutions later, if you've messed up and don't want to restore.

Lastly, please point out if I missed anything!

EDIT: And one more thing.. Working Mail.app located on page 2.

[gloss]

This is fantastic. Thank you!

I'm going to try it out tonight or tomorrow.

[danielpunt]

Will this work in PPC Mac's?

[ebel3003]

Will this work in PPC Mac's?

As this was following the original guide, I'm going to assume no. I'll be looking out for a PPC compatible guide.

[apattee]

that worked great! thanks so much. can you detail how to get the iphone apps on as well? i have the apps but don't know how to get them on. thanks.

[ebel3003]

Installing iPhone apps are pretty simple. Assuming you followed this guide, using SFTP you should be able to drag the iPhone apps into the /Applications/ directory on your iPod Touch. You may have to rename them to include ".app" as the extension, though, depending on where you got them.

Mail and Maps are the only applications I haven't gotten working. I still need to get ahold of the GMM.framework for Maps to work. Guess I'll keep searching! :)

i'm having problems with the mail and maps applications. have you gotten those ones working yet? i know i must be missing those files listed in the directions, any ideas on how to get those? and with those files, where do i place them? thanks again.

Maps seems to require another framework which ships with the iPhone, but not the iPod Touch. I'm working on tracking this file down at the moment, but I won't be able to post it here.

Mail I'm not sure about yet, I'm still tinkering with that. Pretty sure I need to get ahold of MobileMailSettings.bundle from somewhere to make this one work.

[duelingdragons]

Will the next iPod Touch software update totally brick jailbreak'd Touches?

I really really want to do this but I don't want to brick my iPod, or be without the latest official Apple updates.

[ebel3003]

I'm actually downloading the files as well. I'm hoping all it will take is placing the applications in the /Applications/ folder, and then placing the following files on the iPod.

MobileMailSettings.bundle to /System/Library/PreferenceBundles/MobileMailSettings.bundle

GMM.Framework to /System/Library/Frameworks/GMM.Framework

I'll post success or failure in about 5 to 10 minutes.

Even with the bundle, Mail seems to want to crash on me. I'll be researching this more.

[xXriderXx7]

Okay
I have a problem
I was on step three, when iNdependence continually said waiting for iphone

After about 30 minutes i force quit the app and had to do a hard reboot on the touch.
It is now stuck on the Apple logo, any help?

Fixed, starting process over

[ebel3003]

So far I've gotten Maps to work now, still working on playing with Mail.

I'd restore and start from ground zero.

Edit: Tried starting Mail via SSH to see if I can get an error out of it. "zsh: bus error /Applications/MobileMail.app/MobileMail"

[apattee]

alright i have the files, let me know if you've figured out anything! thanks!

i got maps to work, but mail still crashes.

Still not having any luck here, but I'm still tinkering, playing with permissions, and looking around.

[swanseastu]

ive got everything going except for mail, which loads then goes back to home opage again, still working on that ,mmmmmmm:rolleyes:

[ebel3003]

I may have found the solution. Waiting for my account information to connect and verify. Will post again in several minutes.

you're a genius!

[ebel3003]

you're a genius!

I wish. I just learned that account information is inputted under a prefpane in Settings (which is what that bundle is) but I'm still getting a "bus error" when running the actual Mail application. There has to be something missing. I've still not seen Mail working, only screenshots of the preferences.

[ebel3003]

Alright! I've really got it working this time!

Here's what it took: The Mail application that was included with the iPhoneApps rar file was the problem. I found the entire 1.1.1 iPhone filesystem and copied it over from that. Next I ran the following commands in an SSH connection:
chmod -Rf +x /Applications/
chmod -R a+x /Applications/*

Private message me and I'll give you a hand.

[swanseastu]

this has what you need - it fixed all my probs, just copied and replaced the other files i'd found

Just confirmed that those work. Just make sure you run the CHMOD's I posted above after copying and you should be good to go. The applications I had must have been from 1.0.2 which is why those didn't work.

[swanseastu]

Ebel, think you are right ref the version - i downloaded my apps ages ago when I found them, so that little download made me a happy man this evening...although now in bother with my wife as I aint done none of the jobs I promised to do,,,,,still at least tomorrow I can show all the oldies with plain ipod touches what this thing is capable of!!

I was just thinking, "I bet I copied the wrong damn version of Mail". Looks like that did the trick dude. Awesome!

Receiving, but seem to be having some issues sending mail though.<--UMMM no, sending fine. haha badass!

What's funny is I probably had the right version on there several times, but I needed to change the permissions. Instead I just kept swapping them and trying different things.

Seems to work fine for me, just sent one. Try copying it over again, running CHMOD's posted above, and rebooting I suppose.

[Mystikal]

Anyone know why the iphone apps freeze up on me?

You need to download the following file, extract it (it will extract into a folder called opt), and place the folder in your root directory.

noob question, where's the root directory?

[xXriderXx7]

Oka
Sorry but this is my first time with command line

I have copied both mobilemail.app and the bundle to the correct location

I think I may be doing the chmod incorrectly

Should terminal show something, like a confirmation?

And am i supposed to run each line separately?

[ebel3003]

noob question, where's the root directory?

Double click your hard drive. Boom, you're there.

The root directory is basically the highest level folder you can go. It's like putting smaller boxes in one large box. The large box is the root.

If you CHMOD correctly and it doesn't return sort of error or confirmation, it worked. Just to confirm, you're running the CHMOD's from within an SSH session, correct?

ok so this is what i did

i opened terminal and followed the steps and placed the opt folder on my desktop along with the rest of the files (fstab, iphuc, iphonefs folder, and opt folder)

after copying and pasting

sudo cp ~/Desktop/opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.2.dylib

i enter my adminstrative password and get this:

cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src target
cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src1 ... srcN directory

Then i cd ~/Desktop and type in ./iphuc and i get this:

It should just immediately give you another prompt after it's finished.

Typically, in UNIX, any sort of feedback is usually an error. If there is no feedback, then you're 90% of the time fine.

Plug it in and see if iPHUC will read it. If so you should be able to blast your previous image prior to running the SSH install by running this in iPHUC:
putfile iphonefs/rdisk0s1.dmg /dev/rdisk0s1

Woah I thought it got bricked. I tried the hold until the connect to itunes thing came up but it wouldn't work. I just tried it now and it's restoring. I'm going to try again, I really want this to work.

So now that I have the image I don't have to get it back from the iPod. I can just send it back after I go to the jailbreak site again?

You are limited to those designed for the iPod Touch. There are quite a few, though.

[ThePeacemaker02]

Ok, I try and put the software back on using putfile iphonefs/rdisk0s1.dmg /dev/rdisk0s1

but it says failed to open remote file 8.

I've found anywhere from 15 seconds to 2 minutes, but not really any longer.

How do I fix this?

try adding /bin/ to the beginning of the chmod command. So it's like: /bin/chmod ...etc

[bklam]

ok great, it just restarted again. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't frozen.

Does it go back to the home screen at all after rebooting? or does it keep on rebooting. It's flickered twice so far and back to apple image.

[ebel3003]

ok great, it just restarted again. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't frozen.

Yea, key is not to get too impatient. Sometimes, even though it won't make it to spring board and it will idle on the apple, it's even then recoverable. I installed Summerboard and it did the same thing, so I had to SSH to it, move a new copy of springboard to the ipod, restart, and use Installer.app to uninstall it. Point is, why start over when you can fix it? :)

[FunkyMonkey]

Got it to work on PPC Mac!

Instructions? Link? I've almost got a iPt, looking forward to hacking it.

Ok i'm at the ssh part and I can't connect.

I tried both the ip address on the touch and my real IP but neither work.

I hate to point out PEBCAK, especially since I was just a victim of it, but... -1 should be -l (thats an L, but lowercase).

can someone please pm their aim if they jailbroke their ipt on an intel mac, im having trouble !!! THANKS!

[ThePeacemaker02]

I hate to point out PEBCAK, especially since I was just a victim of it, but... -1 should be -l (thats an L, but lowercase). Oh i did everything and entered the alpine password and the last thing it says is -sh-3.2# . That's correct right? Now im going in with Cyberduck.

You got it! Now's the fun part, (yes it's actually fun), you get to fix your syncing and install the springboard hack.

[ArmanSLR]

i have aim, msn, and yahoo, please pm me ur info and ill add u i need hellp!!!!

[ebel3003]

err it's stuck on the apple logo.. what are my next steps

It's indeed stuck and not loading after several minutes? Can you recap what you've done so far?

Also, I've got to run to class in a few minutes, if you can stand to wait about 45 mins (30 min drive), we can talk via AIM or whatever you prefer.

[bklam]

err just pm me your aim name. I can't do anything right now, it's just stuck on the apple logo.

I was at the ssh independence step
rebooting
and it was at the apple logo
then it rebooted
and same thing with the ring in the middle of the apple
then rebooted
and same thing
and it repeated it self
so i was like phuc, something is wrong.

so i turned it off

and now it's stuck.

[ThePeacemaker02]

I can't find the trip1pogostick in the installer app. (i hit refresh)

[ArmanSLR]

uhh yeah, i restored my ipod to factory settings, doesn't work, i reset, doesn't work, did that twice and i keep gettin an unknown error (-18) wtf... what should i do?

[ThePeacemaker02]

uhh yeah, i restored my ipod to factory settings, doesn't work, i reset, doesn't work, did that twice and i keep gettin an unknown error (-18) wtf... what should i do? Hold the 2 buttons until the connect to itunes icon comes up.

[ArmanSLR]

yah im doing that, going through restore now, i will try to jailbreak when it becomes easier xD

[bklam]

how long do i have to hold it until those icons show up?

i'm stuck at the apple, but i keep on holding but nothing shows up


update

never mind i finally got it. **** this, i'm waiting for the GUI

[ThePeacemaker02]

I would like to thank ebel for all of you help. I got it working. It looks so much nicer having apps filling the menu.

[rlb5118]

Ok, I'm all the way to the part where your supposed to type "ssh -l root your. ipods.ip.address" into the terminal. I looked for the ip address under my wifi settings, replaced it in the above line. When I run this command in terminal though it says
(iPHUC) /: ssh -l root 10.0.2.2
shell: No such command 'ssh'

The independence app seemed to work correctly, and I restarted my ipod a third time after independence was finished.
Any help would be great

Close terminal, re-open it and try again.

Not supposed to use iphuc for the ssh bit.... i think

Good luck :)

[ebel3003]

Correct. While in iPHUC you are in a completely different tool. What you will want to do is open another terminal window or type exit to leave iPHUC.

[rlb5118]

Thanks bro that was the problem. I thought about trying that but I wasn't sure if I'd mess up iphuc by disconnecting. I'm never really done this kind of thing before.

[zsno]

Hey, I've got mail working, except I cannot send any messages. Any advice?

[rlb5118]

OK I got everything up and running from the guide, now how do you install the iPhone apps

[irwin8417]

it show (iPHUC) /: getfile /dev/rdisk0s1 iphonefs/rdisk0s1 314572800
getfile: Failed to open remote file: 8

don't know what happen

[rlb5118]

I've already jailbroken my ipod touch, but I can't seem to make an ssh connection in Cyberduck again. I was going to do this to copy over the iphone apps to the Applications folder. Any help would be great.

Hmmmmmm..... interesting....

Are you definately using SFTP, not FTP? (drop down menu in the window that opens when you choose 'new connection')

[rlb5118]

Yeah, I am. I tried restarting Cyberduck and I tried Fetch too. The command line "ssh -l root" followed by my IP address no longer asks for a password either, it just returns a blank line as if its working, but nothing happens. Should I try to run independence again, or will that screw stuff up.

[dragonguy83]

hey guys i really need some help. i downloaded everything, put the opt folder in my hd, did the iphuc steps throught were i replace the file in the etc folder, then when i try to exicute the last comand, after i hit enter, it takes a few secs then i just the iphuc command thing, no conformation or anything, so when i go to independace, and i hit the button in ssh tab, i get an error that is cant communicate with it then something where ect file. any ideas. i dont remember the full detials becuase i got frustated. i restored 3 times and nothing, also the dev team link is dead now. any help thanks guys

[wichard]

mmmm. . . . i got to the ssh part then it went to a apple logo, it looks like it tried to load the OS but like there is nothing there.

I tried holding down the 2 buttons to restart it turns off then shows the apple logo again then nothing . . . did i just mess my touch up?

Thanks

[YoYoMac]

Ok, noob questions.

Just bought my touch tonight. Ready to use it at work tomorrow.

Now, My .dmg file that comes out of iPHUC does NOT match yours.
You said we get a file called Snowbird3A109a.UserBundle.

That is NOT what I got. Mine is called Snowbird3A110a.N45Bundle

Now I follow the same process as you suggested, but when I'm using INdependence, trying to install the SSH, it just hangs and says it's waiting for an iphone to connect. I've restored twice now.

How long does the SSH install take? When you say I have to restart twice during that, will INdependence tell me to do that or does it automatically do it?

Thanks.

[dragonguy83]

my mounted image is just like yours, what happens when you try to put the dmg back to the touch?

when i tried independace, i just get an error saying cant read or something like that

When I put the os back on the touch, iPHUC just gives me a new terminal line after I enter in the upload cmd. INdpendence will see my touch at that point, but when I start the install for SSH, it asks me to restart, I do, then it will give me an apple sign on my touch and a progress wheel in front of the apple, it will restart itself and hang on the apple at that point.

I'm wondering if the difference in .dmg files is messing up my hack. Anyone smarter then me have an idea?

[dragonguy83]

wow, i am in the same boat at you, but i cant even get indepandace to access it

[astrostream]

I've reinstalled the dmg file 8 times with the same problem like yours?!
I started to see more people having the same problem!!

[YoYoMac]

Well, it finally worked, but now when I enter the ssh cmd to verify, it refuses my connection on port 22. Now what?

[Halord]

When I'm jailbreaking, As i open rdisk0s1.dmg It creates Snowbird3A110a.N45Bundle

In the tutorial, it says I should be getting Snowbird3A109a.UserBundle

:(

Further, once that's done, I enter it into iPhuc and see

Reading 4096 bytes, 12288 bytes remain
Reading 4096 bytes, 8192 bytes remain
Reading 4096 bytes, 4096 bytes remain
Reading 4096 bytes, 0 bytes remain
(iPHUC) /: putfile iphonefs/rdisk0s1.dmg /dev/rdisk0s1
(iPHUC) /:


Is it done? What have I done wrong?

[jacktiernan]

wow, i am in the same boat at you, but i cant even get indepandace to access it

Similar thing happened to me 1st time i tried.

Restore your ipod completely and start again. Sorry :o

To restore, connect your ipod to computer and hold down sleep and home for about 15secs, when you open itunes it will say it has detected an ipod in recovery mode.... restore from itunes and go again, following all instructions carefully.

Good luck!

And don't worry, you CAN restore your ipod...boy did i have some tense tense moments during the process! :eek:

[jacktiernan]

Is it done? What have I done wrong?

Congratulations. It's done :D

Now, continue with the steps, remembering that iphuc is not used for ssh commands, close and re-open terminal and enter commands from there.

[adauge]

I started this but soon found out that I don't know enough to do it. All I did was type in the address into the mobile safari browser when I decided not to try this. It told me I had to restore and I already knew that from the directions but now when I restore it gives me an error message saying...

"The Ipod "Ipod" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (-18)."

Can anyone help me restore this thing. If not it should still be covered under best buys thirty day return policy so I'll just try that tomorrow but I'd rather not go through the hassle if one of you guys can help me.

[YoYoMac]

ok, when I try to install the ssh, it gives me a error on the last restart about not being able to open the file to write to the touch. That has to be why I can't verify the ssh. Any ideas now?

[astrostream]

Could you please let's know what you did?
thanks

[YoYoMac]

opened .tiff on touch
opened up iphuc
unpacked os from touch
Noticed I had a different version from what the guide said, (note earlier post)
but fstab into proper directory
uploaded new .dmg to touch
opened INdependence
ran SSH installer
wouldn't work

restored ipod

instead of doing all the crap over again, I just went to the .tiff on the touch
then I just copied the fstab file from my desktop to the touch using iPhuc and terminal.
opened INdependence
install SSH finally seemed to work, as in my touch would actually restart for me. After the second restart, independence gave me the error that it couldn't open the file to write to the touch.

NOw I'm unpacking the cracked os from my touch

seems that some folder called drop bear was added, with two files inside. That's the only changes I notice from the clean version.

[robPOD]

ok hi im getting stuck on the ssh install via independence , every time it says to restart my ipod i do (yes by sliding to power off) my ipod will then restart but only to a white apple, does anyone know why this keeps happening? ( 3 times lol) (im doing it off my mac but im going to try it off my vista pc if i dont get any luck soon).


if any of you need to restore your ipod do this
plug your ipod in launch itunes, then hold sleep and home buttons until your ipod boots into the white apple, continue holding until the screen flashes off and goes black, then continue holding the home button, your screen shouldnt do anything (mine didnt) then itunes should say its detected an ipod in restore mode....

[cavemonkey50]

For those of you having problems with independence and getting stuck with a white apple, make sure you reboot immediately after the jailbreak and before installing ssh. I was going crazy trying to get ssh installed until I realized I needed to restart.

[astrostream]

it's working now. thanks for everybody's help. (just follow the last 5-6 posts)

[robPOD]

So just to clarify do you power off or hold down home sleep? After entering putfile iphonefs/rdisk0s1.dmg /dev/rdisk0s1 in terminal?

[simie]

it work - brilliantly.

Just remember to follow every step. you can just cut and paste the commands into iphuc and termial. This saves time.

[robPOD]

Dont worry got it

- In finder go to the menu bar and click Go > Go To Folder....
- Type: /Users/yourusernamehere/.ssh/
- Move the "known_users" file to the trash

Then retry the ssh process

I went to bed last night with a restored and no hacked ipod. I woke up early this morning, looked at my touch and thought :: are we going to do this again?::

We did

It worked.

I'm cracked and hacked and so is my Touch.

Keep it up those of you who are having trouble. It's a finicky process.

Make sure you RESTART AFTER you upload the new OS BEFORE you go into the SSH installation. That's what messed me up I think.

I did not slide to power off at step 3. Now my Touch is stuck at the Apple logo /w spinning wheel screen. What to do?

I already tried to reboot with holding the sleepwake + home button. But that didn't work.

When you said "Using SFTP, copy Installer.app to the Applications folder located under the root folder." should Installer.app be in root/Applications/? This folder didn't exist so I had to create it.

Of course, because the above didn't work, when I went to http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/beta/ on my ipod touch, I got an error message "Safari can't download this file".

I did notice that when I GetFile, i see the bytes remaining till its finished, but when I putFile, I see nothing at all. Just comes back to the iphuc prompts. So I've assumed that means its finished.

Independence seems to thing its initially connected and the touch is jailbroke, but the restart won't restart the touch..

Any thoughts at all?

Anyone?? I'm getting frustrated as I want to be able to load the ebook app to read ebooks on my touch and to get my mail working!!

That happened to me. I did a restore to fix it then, I went through the instructions again and it worked somehow... try that. Sorry.

[inbrissy]

Hmm I've done the restore 5 times and started from scratch and nothing!! same story.. :-(

I am in Australia if that is of any help!

[ethereal45]

That -1 should be -l (That's an L, not I or 1, needs to be lowercase though).

Wow, I'm a huge idiot. Thank you very much for the clarification.

I'm 100% hacked. Thanks guys.

It won't work.

It won't work.

as in your computer will stop working, or nothing will happen?

Nothing will happen. They will redirect you to their homepage.

so since we are jail broken and have read/write access, will we be able to copy music and videos over to the touch minus itunes?

[bc008]

is there any automated jailbreaks for intel macs?
i dont want to to this til its something as easy as ifuntastic ;)

i just finished doing mine, its not too hard, but yeah, i could see where a nice automated process would help some people out.

[Freakofnature]

Well, it is Sat 13 Oct. And either the site http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com is down, or apple has scrapped it somehow.

On visiting this page from Safari on the ipod, it just closes Safari and goes back to the main window.

Suggestions?

That is the intended effect. Unless you fulfill the hack, you will have to restore to be able to sync with iTunes again.

[BII]

perhaps, but its not so straightforward, if its anything like the previous ipods. IIRC, itunes renames all the files, and goes off a itunes.db (or somthing like that) file to play them and keep them organized.

the rockbox guys have more documentation on this.

How did you get the TIF site to work?

[lamerlizer]

rapid share is confusing, can someone attach the file here so i could download it? please? that two files required to be downloaded from rapidshare

[Freakofnature]

OK thanks. I'll follow through from here then.

I mirrored some of the Jailbreak files for now for those who can't use rapidshare.

i just typed in the url in mobile safari and let it crash

[lamerlizer]

thanks alot! time to try it out ! =D thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks!

[lamerlizer]

sorry but, whats the root portion of my computer?

[Freakofnature]

OK. I pod now stuck in black screen with Apple logo. Wont let me do anything. Ideas?

thanks everyone.

...oh.... and yes, I have held the wake/sleep button for 20 seconds. and no it idid not help.

I also tried holding the wake button, as well as the menu button. that shuts it off, but then when I start it up again, still straight to the black screen.

[lamerlizer]

one more question, i don't know this phrase


"When asked the password is alpine. If it gives a fuss, you may need to remove the "known_hosts" file from /Users/YourUser/.ssh/ (Remember, you should keep touching your screen to keep it active, it seems to slow networking right off when it goesn't into a sleep)"

what should i do? cause i got an error when i try typing the password

[Freakofnature]

any answers re my previous post fellas?

thanks.

It went well, but I accidentally screwed up trying to install the new Summerboard, and ended up having to completely restore.

I am now in the process of jailbreaking again, and have become stuck. I just finished installing ssh and sftp with independence, ad when I test to see if ssh works I get a long message in terminal:

Hello, I am stuck on step 15) I keep getting this error when trying to install SSH "error creating /etc/dropbear directory on phone" also when I try to blast previous firmware onto it with iphuc I get "failed to open remote file:11".

Hello, I am stuck on step 15) I keep getting this error when trying to install SSH "error creating /etc/dropbear directory on phone" also when I try to blast previous firmware onto it with iphuc I get "failed to open remote file:11".

I'd try a restore just to get the original OS back on there, run the exploit, then open iPHUC and skip to the putfile step (blast your currently backed up image). Then try and install SSH again.

[Freakofnature]

Can not unbrick it. Stuck in apple logo on black screen. Wont restore.

[ebel3003]

It's not bricked. These are software hacks to the operating system. Recovery mode is part of the actual device firmware, unlike the operating system which can be recovered at any point in time. You need to be connected to iTunes prior to restarting in recovery mode or else it will bypass your attempt and try to finish booting.

Thanks for your help. But unfortunately iTunes doesn't "see" the iPod at all. It just wont see it on a Mac or Windows. Just stuck in black screen silver apple logo.

iTunes won't see it until you've properly put your device into Recovery Mode, which needs to be connected to your computer while you restart and hold Home. Your iPod should see iTunes, switch to recovery mode, and iTunes should offer to restore it.

[Freakofnature]

Here's a step-by-step of what I have done to try.

1. Plug in iPod using USB cable.

2. WAIT.

RESULT: iTunes does not start.

3. Hold sleep/wake button down for however long.

RESULT: Black Screen Sliver Logo stays.

4: Hold sleep/wake button down and hold menu button down at same time.

RESULT: iPod restarts. Goes back to Black screen Silver Logo. iTunes does not see the iPod.

5. WAIT.

RESULT: iTunes still does not see the iPod.

6. Repeat steps 1 to 5.

RESULT: Same as above.

Any pointers? I'd really appreciate it.

thanks everyone.

Try turning iTunes on first so that your iPod can recognize that iTunes is running perhaps? Only time I've been able to get my iPod into recovery mode is while it's connected AND iTunes is running.

Well I guess they dont expect us to intentionally be walking that fine line in such great numbers trying to unjail their otherwise nice little toy!

Thanks again amigo.

I'll try it all again.

Oh yea, definitely don't give up after one failed attempt. Take your time, relax, re-read sections to make sure you're clear, don't worry about bricking since it's all software this time, and enjoy doing it because it definitely makes the device worth more than it is stock out of the box. If only Apple realized that...

Hey everyone, I really need some help. I'm getting the black screen + silver logo problem, and nothing anyone else has said has been able to work so far. Here's what I did:

I'm up to the point where I just jailbroke the iPod, and the guide says to restart it, so I do (with the slide to power off). When it turns back on, lo-and-behold, I get stuck on the apple logo screen. I try restarting a few times, nothing.

Then I try connecting to my computer, iTunes won't recognize it. (iTunes is on at the time). I try the reboot thing (holding the home button/sleep/wake button at the same time for like 20 seconds) and still nothing. iTunes simply won't recognize it at all.

Any suggestions at all?

This is the problem that I had. Here's how I was helped to solve it.

1. Plug iPod into usb and attach to mac/pc
2. Start iTunes
3. Hold down sleep and home buttons
4. keep holding even while it turns off and restarts, just keep holding
5. eventually you'll see the update icons on the ipod screen
6. itunes will tell you it has detected an ipod that needs to be restored.
7. say yes.
8. let itunes download the restoration file (150megs)
9. let it go through what it has to
10 try all over again, i did, worked second time and now ipod = ipod EXTREME woohoo!

Hang in there
well worth it
Cheers

i think this was just covered or maybe im just tired

[mojohanna]

Help please.

I have "logged in" to the touch, but i get the following: -sh-3.2#

It doesn't seem to do anything after that.

Suggestions?

Never mind! A little further reading and BAM jailbroken!!!!!

[nevenCH]

Hi guys,

wow, great instruction, after couple of times trying I managed to get my iPodTouch jailbreaked. Absolutely great. Thanks for the job done here.

Still have one question: got Mobile Mail on my touch and also moved the library files over (settings and framework).
Settings on Touch show mail, but, if I go in there.... nothing to set...???
Also, opening mail guides me to settings... but still nothing to set up.

Any idea?

Another question would be, where I can find other apps running for the touch, is there like an overview? Additional sources for Installer?

Thanks and Greetings from Switzerland

[MagicWok]

Will the guide work fine for my PPC G4 powerbook? Getting confused with everything lol:rolleyes:

[mojohanna]

I am up and running however my mail app does not work and Maps keeps shutting down. I have calendar working, weather and notes.

Any suggestions on Mail and Maps? I ran the chmods as stated.

[naevity]

I just jailbroke my ipod touch in 24 minutes on the first try, works awesome. Know the saying, measure twice cut once? Well use that when following the instructions. Read the entire set of instructions first, then read each step twice to make sure you do not miss anything.

[Craig01]

Hey Guys

I've just started to Jailbreak and i'm starting to feel a little out of my depth.

So i've visited the mobile site to crash Safari, and ive put the 'opt' file into the root. and got the 'iphuch' on the desktop. but now what?

I have put this command
getfile /dev/rdisk0s1 iphonefs/rdisk0s1 314572800

but i get an error saying 'getfile: Failed to open local file'

Sorry if this is a really simple step, but I need help. this is the first time i have ever done anything like this. Stupid or brave?

[i0Nic]

I can't get the editing functionality on the calendar to work. Can someone please give me a link / PM to the mobilecal app from the iphone (v1.1.1) or give me specific instructions on how to do it. I have downloaded a set of mobile apps which all work but the cal doesn't add the functionality.

whoops nevermind theres a fix in Installer.app :D

[ebel3003]

Ebel,
I've got them working, kind of. Maps I am cool with. Its Mail that is the problem. My problem now is the following:
I can't get my account set up. I keep getting a message that says "Cannot connect Using SSL. Do you want to try setting up the account without SSL?

When I hit yes, it doesn't do anything.

I am trying to set up a POP account using my normal email account through alltel.

How do you disable SSL on the touch?

Go to Advanced in settings and turn off "Use SSL".

I must be blind cause I don't see advanced settings.

Settings -> Mail -> NameOfAccount -> Advanced -> Use SSL

[mojohanna]

Ok, I got you, but I still don't see it. Do I have to have an account set up first? If so, that is the trouble I seem to be having. I can't get into change the ssl.

Should I try to uninstall mail, reinstall and re chmod?

Yea you have to create an account first. You can bypass the authentication attempts and just set up the account, then fix it afterwards.

[jrbsman]

I know many people have said it already but thank you ebel3003 for the walk through. I was semi-comfortable going into this on how terminal works but got through everything perfectly.

Each time create the account and save it, it automatically goes into the verification mode. Nevermind, I think i just figured it out. Thanks for the help.

You most likely forgot to visit jailbreak.toc2rta.com in Safari. After you visit that address Safari will crash and close, then you can proceed.

Also make sure you're plugged into your computer. While most of the post steps can be done over WiFi, the first steps need to be done over USB.

It needs to be converted from a binary format. Type this line into Terminal:

plutil -convert xml1 [location of plist]

You don't need to convert back to binary as the touch will recognize the xml file.

Nope, I just tried for the 3rd time, I visit the website on the iPod, it crashed to the home screen, I run the command in the terminal, and it gives me the same error message.

hi,
thanks a lot for the work and explanations you bring.

Well, I had the same trouble about mail etc. not working:

I uploaded the 1.1.1 apps and restart and chmod the whole thing, but only "notes" and "weather" were working.
mail just gave me a blank window with a "settings" upleft : unclickable
and maps quite...

then, to fix it:
• the good package to download :

http://rs75.rapidshare.com/files/61867543/iPhone_1.1.1_Apps.zip

•with your ftp utility,

>drag the app mail or other in the touch into:
/applications

>drag MobileMailSettings.bundle into :
/System/Library/PreferenceBundles

>drag GMM.framework into :
/System/Library/Frameworks

Enter in terminal :
ssh -l root your.ip.adre.ss
the root@your ip : pass (alpine)
-sh-3.2# chmod -Rf +x /Applications/
-sh-3.2# chmod -R a+x /Applications/*
-sh-3.2# chmod a+x /Applications/Maps.app/Maps

then, hold the two buttons of the Touch, wait the red "shutdown", slide it
restart.

it works

enjoy

Yeah, after ejecting the Snowbird, I entered the putfile, and I thought it was done, so I turned off my touch:

putfile: Failed to write to remote file: 11

I tried to turn it on, and it's stuck at the Apple logo. Help! :(:(:(

Edit: Restoring.
