Loading ...I Finally Figured out how to fix the savestates and hidden roms!!!
Here’s what you do:
Install Term-vt100 (if you haven’t already), and then the SUID lib fix and the BSD Fix(which are either in the tweaks, utilities, or the system category). Then, go open the Terminal App. You should see the following in the window:
Password:
The password is alpine, so go type it in and press enter. If you mistype it, you should then see the following:
Password:
Login incorrect
login:
Type in root for the login, and carefully type in alpine for the password. After that, you should then see something like the following:
Password:

Don’t worry if its not exact. as long as that last # is there, your good to go. Next, you’ll want to type in the following, pressing enter after each new line:
chmod +s /Applications/Installer.app/Installer
chown -R root:wheel /Applications/Installer.app/
reboot
When your ipod restarts, just install a rom for each platform thats acting up. Because of this fix, Every rom will automatically set file permissions for you, meaning you can now run any rom, save any game, and every rom will show up in your emulator.
This fix took me about 4 weeks of searching and hard work, so don’t forget to donate for our efforts.
when i open term i get $… why is that? do i need a certain version?
Hi, the login ‘root’ and password ‘alpine’ doesnt work for me. i jailbroke my ipod touch with ziphone and its 1.1.4. got any ideas?
I get the $ also… I have a iPod touch 1.1.4
help!!
type in login, then type in root, then alpine as the password
$ login root
Password: {type in alpine}
you might need the BSD fix.
ok well i tried this but it was weird from the start. i didnt have to login or do that alpine and root stuff. It logged me in on its own. Also i try the commands and the first line works but the second line launches installer. If i press the button to go back to springboard it closes the terminal but not installer. Can someone help me?
It doesn’t matter if it logs you in automatically. What is important is that you see a # symbol. This means that your logged in as root. If you don’t see it, you need to type in “login root”, and then type alpine for the password when it asks for it.
are you sure you typed in chown ?
i havent been able to get that far because the second command line launches installer and i have to hard reboot to get to my springboard.
I typed alpine in as the password and it still won’t work
I dont no y, but I can save all my games whotgout using the post above
I meant without not whotgout( typing on my iPod)
im unable to enter the password
every time i try to enter the password nothing appears (no text)

juniorgarcia1620@hotmail.com
thank you!
HEY GUYS:
I have an easier solution:
install BossPrefs from Installer and then open it, tap the ‘More’ button and tap “Fix user dir permissions”, or something like that that should fix the problem
i keep trying to login but i for some reason i cant type the password. no matter what i type its blank. Also can anyone tell me the source for BSD fix i cant find it on my installer.
P.S.
even if i type alpine it comes up as incorrect…
i have 1.1.4
@Troubled - When you go to enter the password, it will remain blank..just type it in normal and hit OK.
I am not exactly sure, you might want to post on ipodtouchfans.com - they have what..thousands of members there that help with iPod related issues, also got news on homebrew etc..so you might wanna hit up their forum, search first I’m sure a few million others have had the same issue. Try searching for “SSH password” or something (Without the quotes of course)
