Yes, that tells me that iphuc isn't actually getting an image off of your iphone... hrm :/

The problem with all in one solutions like this is its difficult to see exactly where a problem lies...

In any case, I'd try deleting that file rebooting your ipod and starting again from the beginning...

You can also try manually running iphuc from the terminal ;) (This applescript solution is really just automating this method for jailbreaking:http://www.touchdev.net/wiki/Jailbreak_Guide )

should the ijailbreak folder be in the applications folder or just the application a nd the resource folder? or does it not matter?

The iJailBreak folder should be in the /Applications folder.

IE, there should be a /Applications/iJailBreak/resources folder ;)

For the sake of you actually getting anything done I'd recommend restoring and doing the manual process... If you're not scared of the terminal it's really pretty simple and you get a much better indication of what's going wrong and when.

That being said, this automated process really *should* work... Arix's AppleScript code is really not all that complicated:

i will try the PPC ijailbreak again after a restore and if that does not work i guess i will do it manually

thankyou for your help up till now


*update* after hours of searching i have found that the lib file needs to be for PPC and that is why it dosnt work. well hope this keeps someone else from making the same mistake i did.

Never mind on my iPhuc error, I got it working.

I found that I had to download the iJailbreak through Safari. Firefox did something to screw up the zip file (indicated by not having the Touch icon as the .zip icon).
Click to expand...

this might be the same thing for PPC version. I will try in safari now.

Don´t know.. :/
It was something from preferencebundle..

Safari works but if I go to Settings theres no icon for Safari, just the text. And when I click it its empty.. :/

What in the hell are you doing messing with that?!

Anyways, here ya go...

http://www.appleguru.org/MobileSafariSettings.bundle.zip

Unzip and drop in /System/Library/PreferenceBundles/ on the iPod Touch

...Should be all set to go after that (that's from my 1.1.1 iPhone, but it should be the same).

In any case, I'm off to sleep guys... 4am here ;)

Thanks! :D Works now!

I was tired yesterday, but had to try iJailbreak. I was going to erase mobilemailsettings.bundle but instead safari was the one to go!

But you saved me! :p

dont have the rdisk0s1 file in iphonefs folder

Hi, hoping someone can help me...

I downloaded ijailbreak 0.2.1 and when i run it i get an applescript error:

mv: rename /Applications/ijailbreak/resources/iphuc/iphonefs/rdisk0s1 to /Applications/ijailbreak/resources/iphuc/iphonefs/rdisk0s1.dmg: No such file or directory (1)

My understanding is that there should be a file in the iphonefs folder called rdisk0s1 which i then need to add the extension .dmg, however the iphonefs folder is completely empty.

Where can i find this file?? Thanks
 
Help reposting the iJailbreak download on anything else besides Google.

Hi, can some one post up the iJailbreak download on anything else besides Google?

Because everytime I keep trying to download it, stupid Google tells me:

"I'm sorry...

... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now.

We'll restore your access as quickly as possible, so try again soon. In the meantime, if you suspect that your computer or network has been infected, you might want to run a virus checker or spyware remover to make sure that your systems are free of viruses and other spurious software.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on Google."

Apparentl,y Google thinks I'm non-human!!!
 
iTunes

should iTunes be open or closed during this process? I/m about to jailbreak my touch:D Or should I go into my activity monitor and disable iTunes?

I would close it. I did mine with it open, and while there were no problems per se, I did have to completely re-sync my iPod afterwards as iTunes seemed to think it was a new iPod.

I think about halfway through the process it makes some fundamental changes, and if iTunes is open it catches it on a reboot, and thinks it's a new iPod, when the process finished it's al back to normal, but iTunes still wants to start again.

Thanks, I went ahead and disabled iTunes and all went smooth:rolleyes: Thanks AriX
 
dos it matter if the touch is connected to iTunes when performing the jailbreak?

EDIT: Doh! Answer is right above this post!

How long should the initial "jailbreaking...." take? Mine is running, nothing seems to happen on the touch. And it has been like this for maybe close to 5 minutes already.

EDIT 2: Phew, proceeding finally....
 
Fantastic!

AriX,

It is amazing to me that you were able to do this in just 9 hours and WITHOUT an iPod Touch to help you. That's phenomenal! I am willing to purchase an iPod Touch for you and have it delivered to your home. If you are interested, send me an e-mail. I just think that such genius should be rewarded. A very fine job, young man. You are the future. I congratulate you and wish you great success in your future endeavors.
 
I guess I have a few questions:

One, I panicked a bit and restored my iPod just to make sure i could, and no problem.

So I'm starting again, and as I am about to start the jailbreak, I get an AppleScript error that reads:

"mkdir: /opt: File exists (1)"

I then click ok, and it says installing iPhuc and Readline and it stays that way for a good long time. Is it still working if that screen is showing?

Alternatively, I want to start fresh like I did the very first time, if the file already exists, how can I go about deleting it so I can install properly??

Just delete your /opt directory and run it again
 
well made some progress i think

@ appleguru1

well after some tinkering about and hours of hopelessness the one you posted for PowerPC seemed to work up to the SSH point. i do not know how or why but eventually after 3 restores and multiple headaches it has gotten to a point where it copies the rdisk0s1 with no problem makes it a dmg then has you restart the ipod for the next step.

also i may be delirious but i believe at this point if i am not mistaken the ipod touch is jailbroken.

so this is what it is stuck at now .

any thought would be again greatly appreciated BTW i am still using my PowerPC mac mini

thanks again to everyone who is working on this

PPC problem

Hi,

Ok, I tried to the PPC iJailbreak, unfortunately I got stuck at the same part that babi did with the error

sh: line 1: ./iphuc: No such file or directory (127)

Where there any suggestions to resolving this. I downloaded it on Safari, but I downloaded the PPC version from an Intel Mac, then put it on a pend drive and took it home to my PPC G5 at home.

Currently I am restoring it, odly enough it didnt completely break, just showed my Ipod as having 300MB space and I could just restore it through Itunes normally. Will see if this works, if not I will try and do the force restore by holding down buttons etc...

Has anyone had any success with the PPC version yet?

Thanks to all the people involved in this, AriX and appleguru1 especially.

Cheers
