How do I install? #7

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
No really. How the hell do I install this app. My bosses want me to get it
on the phone. And besides, I'd love to impress my friends with it.

Is there any way you can provide installation instructions?

Original comment by zsp...@gmail.com on 7 Aug 2007 at 2:53

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Alright. Just do this:

mkdir /Applications/NESApp.app/
mkdir /var/root/Media/ROMs/
mkdir /var/root/Media/ROMs/NES/

Then get the files to /Applications/NESApp.app/ using scp or putfile.

chmod +x /Applications/NESApp.app/NESApp

And restart your phone.

Yes thats what I did.    I followed the instructions and the app showed up on 
my 
phone but when I click on it the icon zooms in and nothing opens up. Do I need 
to 
put ROMS in the roms folder?
Also I didn't understand what I do with "chmod +x 
/Applications/NESApp.app/NESApp" 
am i typing this in some where?

So I downloaded a tetris.nes  rom i found just with a few minutes of googleing 
and 
put it in that roms folder, still nothing happened,I guess the problem is me 
not 
knowing what to do with the "chmod +x /Applications/NESApp.app/NESApp"  :(

iFuntastic now has a file browsing feature. Could I use that?

how long did jailbreak take to mod the iphone? Its been 20min and it says 
"booting 
iphone".  The Iphone has since turned off.

I think i need to aquire the old iphone software update 1.0.0 in order to use 
jailbreak.  Anyone know where I can find it?

hacktheiphone,dot,com  Is the best place to start before you mod your iphone, 
go 
through the first ten steps then after that it is a lot easier and faster to 
add / 
change things on your phone

I second that last comment. iPHUC, which that site helps you install and use, 
is 
really great. putfile and getfile will take you a long ways. Great for adding 
ringtones to the phone.

Can someone add an complete installation page, i'm confused with all the how to 
install pages, i guess its more files and folders to add in the interface, the 
ringtone page was easy but to set up roms, and ssh kits, roms is it a download 
or 
what, putting files in folders got me mixed up so can someone start from the 
beginning of the installation plz, thank you.

Ya it would be nice to have complete instructions, I think I almost have it, I 
might 
have it but the rom that I downloaded might not be the right type.

My iPhone was never updated. I followed all of the steps detailed on the 
website with
the Jailbreak readme. I've gotten the yellow triangle with the message "Please
Connect to iTunes" However, my jailbreak gets stuck at the "Booting iPhone" 
phase.
What do i do?

Complete Instructions woud be nice... I was able to successfully Jailbreak and 
use iPhone Interface. I put the files 
where they needed to be, including the icon. I restarted my phone and there is 
no Icon on the home page.

I also do not understand the "chmod" code.

Original comment by zsp...@gmail.com on 8 Aug 2007 at 1:02

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Before you install this, you all have to install ssh, other wise there is not 
way to
chmod +x the file. So everyone follow this guide http://iphone.natetrue.com/ 
before
trying to install the NES. Good luck

One person needs to make a comprehensive installation tutorial. That would 
solve most
problems.

I've only gotten jailbreak to workwith1.0.0 not with the update. Everyone who 
needs to downgrade read the 
bottomcomment section of Nate true's blog at cre.ative.net
there youwill find a link to firmware 1.0.0

Ok first off you need to get ssh working to the iphone.  Google it on the 
internet 
this is beyond the scope of this how to.

For windows download winscp (google it)
1. Download the NES application and extract it
2. Using winscp or other scp program transfer the extracted directory NES.app 
to 
the /Applications directory on the iphone
3. Login to the phone via ssh (default login root pass dottie)
4. Make the following directories type this:
mkdir /var/root/Media/ROMs/
mkdir /var/root/Media/ROMs/NES/
5. Using winscp or other copy your roms to /var/root/Media/ROMs/NES/
6. Make the file executable chmod +x /Applications/NESApp.app/NES
7. reset your iphone 

Start the NES app and if you see a white screen then quits you need to confirm 
you 
did step 6 correctly.

I don't see any option for adding applications in iFuntastic, and trying to 
drag and drop into the applications 
folder doesn't work. So, I'd appreciate it if someone would actually make it 
clear what steps the people with Mac 
OS X need to take in order to get this on the iPhone, because it's been a week 
and I still can't figure it out.

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Okay guys, here is the most comprehensive step by step I can provide.  I bounced
around websites for hours trying to figure this out but I finally got it.

Here it goes...

Step 1 - Go to Hack the Iphone
(http://www.hacktheiphone.com/iphone_tips_troubleshooting.html) 
Read the ten steps and do exactly what it says.

Step 2 - Click on the tab for advanced hacking SSH
http://www.hacktheiphone.com/iphone_install_ssh_windows.html

Do exactly what it says.  You may need to do step 11 multiple times.  For me, 
after
phase 3 it closes the command windows.  No worries, run it again.  Keep running 
it
until you see phase four in the command window.  Then, just powercycle again 
and you
are good to go.

Follow the rest of the steps, but skip that crap on changing the password, it is
confusing.

Once you are using WINSCP, you can drag files to the iphone.  Go to settings, 
WiFi,
and figure out your IP.  us: root   pass:dottie  MAKE SURE U SELECT SCP for the
connection type in the drop down. 

Note, certain commands are not supported such as mkdir and chmod inside of 
WINSCP.

For these commands, you need to use iphoneinterface, which came in the SSHkit 
download.

Step 4 -
Download the latest NES zip.  Unzip it.  Using SCP, drag the folder onto the
Application folder on the iphone using WINSCP.

Then go to iphoneinterface exe in the SSHKit and run the following commands.
mkdir /var/root/Media/ROMs/
mkdir /var/root/Media/ROMs/NES/

Once you have done this, bo back to WINSCP and navigate to the top <root> 
directory
of the iPhone.  Go to the Command menu options and select terminal.

Then type chmod +x /Applications/NES.app/NES     (NOTICE!!!!! - My path is 
slightly
different because I did not use the mkdir line referenced above.  If you used 
mkdir
to make your NEW folder in Applications, then use chmod +x 
/Applications/NESApp.app/NES)

It is pretty easy to determine what path you need to type.  Merely navigate to 
the
NES folder on the iphone and make sure you are running the command on the 
proper path.

If you got this far, you should be able to figure out how to download ROMs and 
where
to put them.

Good luck!

How do you do all of that SSH stuff in Mac OS X?

Because the itunesmobiledevice.dll file has to be inthe folder with all the ssh 
stuff. I'm assuming you're using 
Windows, so just search for the file and copy it to the ssh kit folder.

Also, sometimes Windows won't find the file, even though it's on the computer. 
www.hacktheiphone.com has 
the file for download in one of the Windows guides. I think it's the ringtone 
guide.

Vis, use SCP and see where you put the application.  What is the path?  Then 
just put
that in to the command.
