i would like to mod my phone and stuff but wondering if its possible to ftp into my iphone to transfer files back n forth and to basically filemanage whats on my phone?
 
Via Installer.app install BSD Subsystem and then SSH Server/Client. You can then sftp into the iPhone as the root user (default password is dottie). You might want to change that once you have enabled SSH w/ a public key ;)

on 1.1.4 installer does not let install BSD subsyem. is it question of waiting for another update or something?

thanks
 
What is the FTP address for the phone? I have the NES emulator on there and roms, but I don't know how to get the roms onto the phone

Settings, Wifi, blue arrow to network, then you will see the IP address.
Also password for 1.1.3 and beyond is now alpine I believe
