Nothing happens when I rung ./loadibec ../openiboot.img3
I put my iPhone into Recovery Mode on my Linux box (Turn off unconnected iPhone, hold Home button and connect USB to iPhone) and then run: ./loadibec ../openiboot.img3 but nothing happens. I have an 2G iPhone. The Recovery-Mode Screen does not go away. I just stays there.
Keep holding home and lock button to hardreset it. It should boot normally then. Otherwise you have to restore it using the DFU-Mode.
Thanks! That is not the problem. I would like to install Android and I would expect the screen to change as I install openiboot. Or that is what the howto says.
The steps I am doing are:
- Put your phone into Recovery Mode (not DFU Mode).
- Run sudo ./loadibec openiboot.img3
- The openiboot menu should now be displayed on your phone.
I get no openiboot menu.
According to:
http://www.idroidproject.org/wiki/Installing_iDroid_%28Linux%29
It works for me. I am using an iTouch 1G with fw 3.1.2 and blackra1n. We noticed some time ago that the jailbreak is important to load openiboot on the itouch 1g.
My phone is jailbroken with pwnage and Firmware version 3.1.2 (7D11). dmesg tells me: usb 1-3: USB disconnect, address 14 usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 15
Maybe you want to try blackra1n jailbreak and test it again. I don't own an iPhone so sorry I can't really help you with that issue.
I could try installing openiboot from my Mac not my Linux. Can you point me to a Howto?
Have you tried blackra1n? You can compile loadibec and oibc for mac but you need to get a openiboot.img3 from linux, because it doesn't compile under mac (yet) .
restore from itunes. Make sure that you download the same version that you already have installed( http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ ), put your phone in recovery mode and do a shift-click on the itunes restore button and select the fresh firmware package. After its been restored run blackra1n and then you're ready togo.
Ok, check this out in the latest kernel release: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-driver-devel/2010/3/31/6884240
There is a new iPhone driver in the Kernel that does not require a jailbroken iPhone! ;) Maybe that will help me. ;)
@Anon0 ok, I done as you advised and I installed 3.1.2 from Restore, then I ran Blackra1n. But now when I do sudo client/loadibec openiboot.img3 I still get the same result: No reaction. Nothing happens when I run that from my Linux box. Any hints?
Im not sure if it will help ... but add a line to your makefile( at the top )-> PLATFORM=2G Then run 'make clean' and run make to rebuild. I don't know if there is any specific 2G Code. I would need to read more code to find out. When it just doesn't load like that its most likely a config error.
Try running loadibec from the root openiboot dir .... sudo ./client/loadibec openiboot.img3

Sorry: What makefiles, what folder?
sudo ./client/loadibec openiboot.img3
That is exactly what I am doing!
Ok, I did the following: makes no difference:
~/.software/iphonelinux/openiboot/client> vi Makefile
~/.software/iphonelinux/openiboot/client> make clean
rm *.o rm oibc rm loadibec
~/.software/iphonelinux/openiboot/client> make

Would love to run Android on my iPhone. I am on Linux not on VirtualBox (Linux) on Mac.
Ok, got openiboot installed from my Mac. But it is a bit sad that it does not work from Linux.
I followed this howto: http://androidalot.com/modding/how-to-install-android-on-an-iphone-2g/
I do not know if this is the right place, but after installing openiboot and then restarting the phone, my iPhone stops booting after the message: WELCOME TO OPENIBOOT
Thats correct. You will now need a compiled linux for your phone. You can communicate with the phone via oibc.
I've been giving this issue some thought and I have a suspicion that your vm software( assuming a VM here) for your Linux installation probably wont allow you to get into the low level USB stuff or it may be improperly configured.
Thank you Anon0! My iPhone now boots Android, though without Multitouch driver. I now am using http://www.idroidproject.org/wiki/Dripwn to get the Driver into Android.img.gz. that tool also helped me to extract the driver from the phone.
My iTouch 1G also doesn't respond to sudo ./loadibec, I've tried restoring my iTouch ( 3.1.2 ), it's jailbroken with redsn0w and all. I've installed everything from libusb to every other package needed. I don't understand what's the problem, 2 days ago I successfully installed openiboot on it, and it ran like a charm. In the mean time, i uninstalled it, using uninstall command in the openiboot console. Restored it and now it doesn't want to install again. Has anyone encountered anything similar?
Compiling and Installing onto an ipt1G works fine for me from the git repo. Try restoring from iTunes, rejailbreak and try flashing openiboot again.
Never mind, I solved the problem by restoring and using blackra1n on my iPod Touch 1G, instead of redsn0w. Seems that fixed the issue and I was able to install openiboot normally.
