Just another WordPress.com weblog

Just a few days ago, i’ve updated and jailbroken my iphone and ipod to ios5.01. After installing a few basic apps from cydia, and of course MobileTerminal, but after i tried to run the mobile terminal, it just stuck at "loading…" screen. I’ve searched through many sites, but didn’t find any solutions that worked for me. I think the problem was that i installed the MobileTerminal from ssh using iFunBox. Now this requires a few steps to be done :

• 
  

  Using iFile :

Go to /Applications in “root” / folder

Find “Terminal.app” in that folder and tap the blue arrow on the side of it to edit folder properties :

 

Now try to change the ownership and permission of the folder :

There you see the Owner = mobile. Now you have to change that to “root" (tap and choose “root” from the list. After that you have to change the Group to “admin” with the same step as in changing the owner.

If you have a different Access Permissions than the picture above, change it to be the same as in the picture. And this is the final result after you’ve modified  :

Tap done after you finished. Now if you’re lucky, you can now run MobileTerminal on your iOS device. If the above solution doesn’t work, i’ll update the post with the alternative using ssh through iFunBox.

Btw if you’re an iDevice user, you’ll need iFunBox to make your life easier. You can install applications using its sweet AppFastIn™ feature which lets you install an ipa package, even if your device is not jailbroken, but only if your apps is legal (if your device not jailbroken). You can retrieve your musics to your computer, ssh your phone, and many other great features.
