Usefull commands for mobile terminal & how to install m-t on iphone 4

[rich hathaway]

These are some mobile terminal commands and also instructions on how to log into your i device as a super user.

be carfull with any command prompt. i am not responsible for "anything" that "you" do to your device.

if you mess it up,a full restore will usually fix it.

first off,mobile terminal is not yet fully compatible with ip4,it will crash often if not every time right now.

so add this source to cydia to get m-t "YourCydiaRepo.org" then open it after installing it and scroll down to mobile terminal and instal it.

this repo will error out and have dependency problems but mobile terminal will run fine and stay open.

also if you are gonna use this and know what you are doing you prolly already know to install erica utilities for added c-prompts and utilities.

ok here are a few commands for m-t-- this is a very partial list

--
respring- resprings device

locate-- obvious what that does

suspend-- obvious what this does

dpkg --list > packages.txt- creates a list of installed cydia packages

*dpkg -i nameofpkg- used to install .debs

*dpkg -r nameofpkg- used to remove cydia packages

*apt-get update- updates cydia sources

*apt-get install nameofpkg- used to install cydia packages

*apt-get remove nameofpkg- used to remove cydia packages

help- gives you a list of other terminal commands that you may or may not want to use

enable- gives you a list of prompts that works with that command as well

Commands with a * next to them need you to log in as a super user or "su" so use this command "su" hit return then type (unless you changed the password ) default password is
"alpine" hit return and your now logged in as super user
