@reddblade you’ll have to openssh it or call ur iPhone, answer it, then WHILE STILL IN THE CALL press home go into settings and change the password
I know this post is old. But I have a very very basic question.
i know the protocol for entering the id = root and pw = alpine (before I changed it and it did not take)
But your example where you enter mobile & the password and it comes up
Where is that located. My passlock code is off in settings, and I don’t know of any other pw’s.
Thanks in advance for your help.
It’s called mute dipshit.
root password is “alpine”
@jb0177
Nevermind…i fixed it….useing iCommander, too…..but i also found out what u was meaning, and that is much simpler.
iFile is designed to be a file browser and manipulator, but it can also be used for limited SSh using its web server.
iCommander is much more minimalistic and easier to use, but has more commanding features….however, after loading the master password doc to the iPod, iFile can be used instantly, saveing a lot of time and hassle…..
@jb0177
please tell me how!!! i forgot my root password and i need it for
SSHing…..i have ifile so please, what do i do, use the text viewer? and then what do i change?
i stopped weatching the video because the song in the bg pissed me offf. failure
You could also simply edit the file directly on the iPhone using iFile. Just delete the hash.
Whats the mobile password?
My mobile password.
I changed the default password(alpine) to another 1 which i don’t remember.What can i do apart from restoring and rejailbreaking?
even though it says some error message just press ok and search icommander
Go to Cydia home -> More Package Sources -> Hack & Dev.
hey man, love the guide, but i cant use it.. i have no access or way of getting icommander… i tried adding the link into cydia only to get an error message saying the repository isnt compatible, fails, doesnt exist, or something like that… is it possible you can upload a direct dl link to mega upload or rapidshare in an ipa format? this is the only thing holding me back from reseting my root pw. i cant get the icommander to change the permissions to the master.passwd file, thanks in advance!
plug it in when they error comes up saying wait, when u unplug it goes away so u can try again
No you’re not
help my iphone is locked i dont know my passcode and it is jailbroken
