This post comes as an upgrade to a tutorial created by me some months ago, entitled, "Mount iphone cable using itunnel (libiphone-libplist) and Debian." The most important updates regarding the inclusion in the official repositories of libraries libiphone0 and libplist0, and the latest version of itunnel with support for the iphone 3GS. To mount our iphone cable Start by installing the following tools:

# Apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool ifuse libiphone0 libplist0 libgnutls-dev libusb-dev libfuse-dev libglib2.0-dev libxml2-dev libreadline5-dev cmake swig ssh sshfs

Now we download itunnel-0.0.9 for those with the 3GS or an alternative version itunnel-0.0.4 (version 0.0.5 do not know why, but from problems). Now we go to our home and in the folder. Ssh create a config file like this:

Host myphone
HostName 127.0.0.1
Port 3023
Mobile User
ControlMaster car
ControlPath / tmp/master-% r @% h:% p
ServerAliveInterval 300
UserKnownHostsFile ~ / .ssh / myphone_known_hosts
RemoteForward 2202 localhost: 22

We at our home a folder to mount the iPhone

mkdir iphone

we start ssh folder on your iPhone and enter itunnel

cd itunnel-0.0.9

root:

. / itunnel 3023

appears to us that:

DebianBox: / home/edmond/itunnel-0.0.9 #. / Itunnel 3023get_iPhone () success
- Successfully got device
ssh server waiting for connection

We open another shell and as root:

sshfs-p 3023 root @ localhost: / private / home / user / iphone

I chose the folder / private, but you can start from any other folder.

will be asked for the root password of the iPhone, which by default is:

Alpine

Now open nautilus as root, and we will find our Iphone mounted.

I have a 3G iPhone Jailbroken with firmware 3.0.1.

Who owns an iPhone knows that to be able to navigate the folders you have to use ssh and a WiFi connection. But I have experienced a cable with the help of itunnel, and frankly I find it more practical, since I do everything on my Debian, without using the mobile-terminal 'Iphone. To get started all we need is:

• itunnel
• libiphone
• libplist

At this point you have to install a few things you need:

apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool libgnutls-dev libusb-dev libfuse-dev libglib2.0-dev libxml2-dev libreadline5-dev cmake swig ssh sshfs

Install libplist:

cd cartella_libplist

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make

make install

Install libiphone:

cd cartella_libiphone

. / autogen.sh

. / configure

make

make install

Now we go to our home and in the folder. Ssh create a config file like this:

Host myphone
HostName 127.0.0.1
Port 3023
Mobile User
ControlMaster car
ControlPath / tmp/master-% r @% h:% p
ServerAliveInterval 300
UserKnownHostsFile ~ / .ssh / myphone_known_hosts
RemoteForward 2202 localhost: 22

We at our home a folder to mount the iPhone

mkdir iphone

open ssh on your iPhone and enter in the folder itunnel

cd itunnel-0.0.5

root:

. / itunnel 3023

appears to us that:

DebianBox: / home/edmond/itunnel-0.0.5 #. / Itunnel 3023get_iPhone () success
- Successfully got device
ssh server waiting for connection

We open another shell and as root:

sshfs-p 3023 root @ localhost: / var / mobile / Media / home / user / iphone

will be asked for your password:

edmond @ DebianBox: ~ $ su
Password:
DebianBox: / home / edmond # sshfs-p 3023 root @ localhost: / var / mobile / Media / home / Edmond / iphone
root @ localhost's password:
DebianBox: / home / edmond #

Now open nautilus as root, and we will find our Iphone mounted.

Having recently got an iPhone 3G, I found myself immediately in the position of having to understand how to handle some things on my Debian. In particular I was interested in converting some audio-video files to make them compatible with the player. What I experienced are 2 main methods:

1) from the terminal using mplayer with the following syntax:

file.mp3 mplayer-ao pcm-ao pcm: file = "~ temp.wav"

~ temp.wav faac-o-w file.m4r

rm ~ temp.wav

2) or use Mobile Media Converter software cross-platform easy to use and converts the following formats:

Desktop Audio: mp3, wma, ogg, wav
Mobile Audio: AMR, AWB, mp4
Desktop Video: wmv, mpeg, wmv, avi, flv
Mobile Video: 3GP, MP4
