Backup and Restore applications installed on Cydia using Apt Backup

Posted: 29 Nov 2010 04:13 AM PST


When you upgrade your iOS for iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, you don't have to be worried about what you have downloaded previously. Everything is taken care of by iTunes. It doesn't only take care of the backups and syncing after firmware update but also ensure setting of each application is restored completely.

Well this is not really the case for jailbreakers when there is a firmware update. Applications installed via Cydia need to be reinstalled one by one and not to mention, none of the application settings are reserved.

Luckily, there is AptBackup, an application meant for restoring Cydia-installed iPhone applications which effectively speeds up the process of reinstalling your favorite jailbreak apps. Basically, AptBackup creates a list of Cydia installed iPhone apps (it doesn't really create a backup of the native iPhone apps). After a firmware update is completed, it uses this list to automatically reinstall the applications.

Here is how to backup your Cydia-installed applications

1. Search for AptBackup in Cydia and install it.
2. Tap on the "Backup" button to create a list of applications.
3. Sync your iDevice with iTunes (the list will gets synced to iTunes).
4. After you complete upgrading to the latest firmware, jailbreak it and reinstall AptBackup.
5. Launch AptBackup and click "Restore". This will effectively reinstall Cydia applications based on the list you synced to iTunes previously.

How to OpenSSH iPhone 4 over Wifi

Posted: 29 Nov 2010 02:28 AM PST


OpenSSH is a background system that allows you to connect your PC to your iPhone over wifi and allows you to gain access to your iPhone's files system and transfer files from your computer to your iPhone.

So what you need in order to OpenSSH your iPhone?

1. Jailbroken iDevice (i.e jailbroken iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad)
2. OpenSSH (your device)
3. Winscp (your PC)

Below are instructions on how to OpenSSH your iPhones, iPod touch and iPads over a wireless internet.

1. Search for "OpenSSH" via Cydia and get it installed. Note: Because this is a background system, there is no icon for OpenSSH in your iDevice.

2. Download Winscp and install it in your PC.
3. In order to access your iPhone, you need to find the iPhone's IP address which can be found by going into your Settings application on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad and then into the Wi-fi option. Click on the little arrow next to the Wi-Fi you are connected to and find the IP address. See picture below as reference.

4. Key in the username and password fields. The username is root and password is alpine. By default, your file protocol is set to SFTP. You need to change it to SCP. You don't need further info in order to access your iPhone files system.

5. It will take several attempts before you can connect to your iPhone.
