3gs JB is here finally - Page 3

I know that Purplera1n will only work with Windows XP at the moment. I have a Macbook Pro, but I also have Paralells Desktop with Windows XP installed. Before the 3GS, I had a Blackberry Bold, and there were issues running the Blackberry Desktop Software on my Mac using Parallels / Windows XP. I know the only way to find out for sure is to try, but I thought I'd ask here.... you do think I would be able to run Purplera1n given my current set-up, or would I be better off borrowing a friends Windows based PC just to be sure? Thanks.

Never mind. For anyone with a similar set up, allow me to answer my own question. It does not work. Tried it too many times already. I'll wait for the proper Mac version to be released.

Ugh, I accidentally clicked restore from backup, and after 2 hours, it was only 15-20% done with the restore.

I just uplugged it and setup as new phone. I'll have to set everything back up later.

Rejailbreaking...

Has anyone been able to get OpenSSH to work? I have it installed via Cydia on my 3GS. I can't seem to connect like have in the past.

I too had problems connecting. I thought I might have messed something up, but as soon as this rejailbreak finishes, I'll try again. I sure hope this isn't the case.

I had that problem too trying to SSH. BUT! DiskAid does work. (it sucks it's only a 14 day trial. they used to be free)

I figured it out!! Change the file protocol to SCP and it will let you in.

FYI, anyone using iPhoneBrowser or Diskaid, you have to download the new versions of the software. The old ones are incompatible with 3.0. iPhoneBrowser is still free.

I'm getting jealous!!! SBSettings, Cydia, talk of winterboard!! Waiting for mac-based JB to be released.....aargh!

Anyone tried Intelliscreen yet?

seanwes · 07-03-2009, 03:02 PM

cliffeman, I'm using filezilla and don't see an SCP option?

seanwes · 07-03-2009, 03:08 PM

Using iPhonebrowser, and it works! Yay, I get my text notifications back!!
