Above is the original source for the info below.


In order to have iSlsk.app working you will need to perform the following steps.

Log in to your iPhone or iPod touch with SSH (Putty) and do the following:

1) check if you have “ioreg” binary in /usr/bin/ directory

2) If not download it from the link above and upload it to /usr/bin

2) Connect with ssh/vterm from iphone or however but run the following commands:

3) chmod 755 /usr/bin/ioreg

4) chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/

5) chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/*

6) Download libncurses.5.dylib from the link above and upload only libncurses.5.dylib to /usr/lib

7) chmod 777 /usr/lib/lib*

8) mkdir /var/root/Media/Downloads (if it already exists it’s ok)

9) chmod 777 /var/root/Media/Downloads/

This last one should fix your itunes import problem.(credit goes to Edward from Touch Podium)

10) ln -s /private/var/mobile/Media/iTunes_Control /private/var/root/Media

11) Reboot your iphone.

Once you finished downloading a song from within the iSlsk.app and are trying to import, the app will crash,crash,crash!!!

The fix...

Goto iappcat.com and search for MNPlight,
I added this source to installer...
Mkv.Mobi

Once refreshed I searched all packages for MNPlight.

From within that app (MPNlight) you can click on the ipod and change the directory to /var/root/Mobile/Downloads and click import
The songs will now show up into your Iphone’s ipod.

I've been working on this script and I keep getting a "Main script execution failure" message, if anyone can find the problem we will have a nice script to do everything at once . The error is coming from the CopyPath command, i'm pretty sure of that.

Best way to do is to install the WinSCP and SSH into your phone. Then go to var > mobile > applications and right click on the iSLSK folder. Go in properties and change the value to 0777. That is it. Works fine on my 16gig 1.1.4 iphone.

thanks to the developer

Just throwing this out there since the iphone can't protect itself by masking it's IP or anything else...but is anyone concerned about RIAA monitoring soulseek and getting busted for music downloads on a mobile device?

To solve this issue, you will need to do some hacking.

To learn how to connect to your iPhone and or iPod touch see this post.

Log in to your iPhone or iPod touch with SSH and do the following:

1) check if you have “ioreg” binary in /usr/bin/ directory
2) If not download it from here and upload it to /usr/bin
3) chmod 755 /usr/bin/ioreg
4) run chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/
5) run chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/*
6) Download libncurses.5.dylib from here and upload only libncurses.5.dylib to /usr/lib

7) run chmod 777 /usr/lib/lib*

IF you still can’t get it to work i suggest waiting for the next release.

Thanks to the original creator Errrick who’s website you can consult here."

LMK if that works for you.

This works fine but when I import the songs and goto the ipod app they don't play.

I tried all the know methods of fixing the fwguid error and nothin worked on my 1.1.4 but then I installed pnmlight and imported once and then went into islkl after and I don't get the error anymore. I am able to import and see all the songs no problem now

[lasteve]

what is pnmlight? I cant find it in installer


Also I got an idea I don't know if it will work or if anyone has tried it but I remember hearing everyone saying that it works fine on 1.1.2, if so why not try using FWChanger from installer and set it to 1.1.2

[reeko]

definetely cant find isisk on installer anymore. i have bigboss' sources. i uninstalled it, to re-install it and start over with the fix of it but now cant get hold of it.

can anyone else put it up for manual download please!

I did exactly that and it worked like a charm! I d/l FWChanger 2.1 and set my iphone's firmware to 1.1.2 and voila! Before, I changed the isks app folder's permission to 0777 and it got rid of the firewireGUID error, and the music files would import over to the ipod but when I clicked on the file it wouldn't play. But now they play no problem! Thanks for this suggestion. I only hope that my other apps won't have firmware conflict issues by using FWChanger.
