I used the repo to fix Apollo once already, but my IPod Touch has crashed since then. I'm back up and running but when I add the repo into sources, nothing is there. Will it be coming back? Has it changed locations? I've tryed the script for the file "host". It didn't work for me, but the repo does. Can someone help?

any chance Kelly can put this back on??I am desperate for this as I don't know what the root password is (phone purchased already unlocked)
 
I have applied these fixes and they seem to be working for MobileChat as well, seeing how I can log into AIM and MSN with no trouble anymore. However has anyone been able to log into their Google Talk accounts? I tried putting in my full email address and that seems to be an endless loading. I have just put in the ID name(minus email extension) and have been able to get in, but no buddy list is appearing.

Has anyone else experienced that and if so what is the host fix for Google?
 
Hi everyone, I'm a bit of a noob. Well first of all I purchased the phone (for tmobile carrier) with it being unlock and jailbroken already. The "installer" was already on the phone and that's how I accessed Apollo. Can someone post picture's please. What I did was opened up Apollo, clicked on "add" clicked on "AIM" and then typed in my AIM name and password. Then clicked on save and tried to sign on and all it say's is "could not connect to authentication server: Could not resolve host name"

On the edit screen all I see it" username, password and below which I cannot type into is: server and port. Please I need help guys and greatly appreciate it.

Another question is, I have 1000 text messages for my tmobile plan (also have total internet). Will apollo or any aim app's for our iphone go against my text messages?
 
perfect fix

I'm running 1.1.3, jailbroken using iJailbreak and I've had nothing but problems with mChat and Apollo, which I thought was such a shame, until now! The fix worked right away and I haven't experienced any problems so far! Whoever figured that one out is a genius! Thank you so much1:D

He most likely followed the fix that is mentioned at the beginning of this thread. Where you have to manually edit the host files via a FTP program on your PC or MAC. Apparently the Tiny Code source is no longer available, so that is the only way to do it.

Hmmmm, thanks. I guess I will need to download the FTP Program on my PC and hope it works that way. Thanks.
 
Can someone please load that Tiny-Code program back into the installer?

It doesn't show up for me using the old source.
 
Saw the Fix for Apollo on in the Install today and now Apollo work's great. Thank's so much guys!
 
MSN and AOL works thats all I tested.

This works, well for people are wondering...

1. Install OpenSHH from installer if you haven't
2. Logon your iphone using an ftp program with you ip add for your iphone which can be found in Prefernces > Wireless > your wireless connection > tap the blue arrow on the right..
3. Use login name of root and password alpine
4. Go to your ftp program and find that host file..
5. Right click on it or crtl+click if you're using a one button mouse and click on Edit with Text Edit
6. Then copy and paste the codes that were provided in previous replies, at the END of the script.
7. Save and have it replace the old host file.
8. If you are unsure how to do all this be sure to save the original host file befor step 5.

Basically the tiny-code source did that automatically, this is the manual process.
This is basically a more indepth process and explaination of what everyone on thsi thread is doing...

Optional, you can ftp wallpapers, ringtones, roms, emulators, and basically hack/mod your iphone with ftp if you know what you are doing and know where the files are...

To see changes be sure to not to have you iphone on lock when you try to connect, sometimes it won't connect.

Be sure to restart after the ftp process, sometimes you see changes right away, sometimes not.

Be sure to restart Summerboard if you are using it, sometimes iphone goes a little whack afterwards and reboots with the original theme. But rarely.
 
No need to chnage the file

There is in a fix in Installer, here is where to find it.

Installer > Tweaks 1.1.3 > IM Chat 1.1.3 Fix.

It does all that for you, no need for logging into iPhone and changing files anymore.
