I got lost right after the "tetherify-windows.bat" part of the instructions. I'm running XP on my laptop. How do I even know if that "tetherify...bat" file loaded onto my iphone properly.

Second, I'm having a rough time setting up an ad-hoc network on my laptop. The intructions seem to get very vague at that point...and you'll have to forgive me...this is the first time for me in this type of endevour.

To summarize, I think I have the socks proxy (have no idea what it means) on my phone, but not sure how to get my iphone and my laptop speaking to eachother so I can use internet on my laptop via the iphone.

please help...thanks.

Turns out you don't need to run the batch file if you jailbroke via the ZiPhone 3.0.

I installed the squid app and verified that all the files in the "x.script" are already there, except for the net.sourceforge.socks-relay.srelay.plist. I install that file by creating a "app" which is a zip file w/ the .plst file in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ folder. (See ZiPhone documention on installing apps).

I don't think the .plist file is really needed. But I put it there just in case. the srelay file is the important one, and ZiPhone already put the files there.

iphoneinterface doesnt seem to recognize that my iphone (1.1.4) is jailbroken, so it cannot install the files needed. Installing ZiPhone is a great alternative.

using firmware 1.1.2 and connecting a macbook with macosx to use the iphones edge connection works fine (with jailbreak installed)
but what does not work is the windows ad-hoc network connection: when connecting to the network i get 3 pings and then the network connection stops working (iphone is set to be always on, brightness low)

do you have other hints to prevend windows (xp) from disconnecting?

I did jailbreak successfully on my iPhone and I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate.

Also how would I install the "srelay" on my iPhone? or what methods are used with srelay?

EDIT: Got it to work!
Even though I still get the error when doing the "netsh" step. I got the internet to work. Only thing is that I realized that my phone "HAS" to be physically connected with the laptop. Also the internet is super slow and sometimes the pages need to be refreshed 1-2 times to finish loading the content. Other than that no problem :P

Hey guys... Kinda new at this posting thing, but have been truely appreciative of all the efforts made at improving the iphone; especially Nate's. Thank You...
Just an update: I spent several hours on the phone with att and apple and was eventually routed to the internet support division of the apple iphone helpline, aand they had just had a meeting tuesday morning about tethering the iphone to a laptop and cost to the consumer...
I was told, verbatum " ...there is no way for att to tell HOW one might be connected to te EDGE network, all they can tell is when and how many kbs are downloaded..." He went on to explain that since that was the case, there is no way for them to find out nor charge us for the use of a tether... I hope that helps with some concerns... Until then I cant get my IE7 to work... The phone connects with my laptop, but no pages seem to work on IE7. Any suggestions. Couldnt really find my answers in any other posts...
Thanks.

First thanks Nate for this post, it has been extremely useful for me this week. I was able to get my laptop online at the beach. It took a while to get working reliably so I thought i'd share some tips with everyone else tethering with XP.

First off download a program called freecap (google it). It is a proxy app that hooks your programs so they will work through the socks proxy. This way you will not need to set any special settings in firefox, and you will be able to use other apps through the proxy such as VNC or remote desktop.

The other tricks I've used is to open a command prompt window and type this:
ping 10.0.0.10 -t
replace that ip with the ip of your iphone. This constantly pings your iphone from your laptop keeping the connection alive.

The last tip is sometimes everything was connected and appeared to be working but I could still not access any webpages. This was because EDGE was not connected. To solve this when you first start the adhoc connection open safari on your iphone and go to any webpage, this will kick the edge into connecting and now you should be on both edge and wifi. I also disabled the auto lock features on the iphone so the screen would stay on. This kills the battery fast and may not be necessary for everyone but I found it stays connected longer by doing this.

Hope this helps others who are trying this method. Thanks again natetrue!

I suspect it's a DNS issue, because typing in 64.233.187.99 brings google up, but actually typing in google.com didn't.

heyigotaniphone,
The package I modified only works with iPHUC and the Jailbreak method described in the Wiki.

Along with iPHUC, there's a way to jailbreak so that once it's all done, all you have to do is run iPHUC, then type "setafc com.apple.afc2" and you're automatically in. No fuss with putting the iPhone in recovery mode.
There's a tutorial on how to do this method of jailbreak in the iPhone Dev Wiki.

It seems based on what you're saying that connections to 1080 are working, because if you tried to connect to a port that was closed you'd get "connection refused" or something like that and telnet would close.

i get as far as pinging the iphone (10.3.3.2) but nothing more. I am using internet explorer. Now out of curiousity and to follow the instructions to a T, i installed firefox which is a tad-bit diferent than what the instructions says in here - for one, there is no socks proxy under about:config - well, at least not the pc version i download (latest version). There is a network.proxy.socks_remote_dns which i put as true.

Also, i tried telnetting into the iphone by doing the following:

- open telnet
- type open 10.3.3.2 1080
- it hangs in "connecting to" nothing happens from here.

Again, i'm on WinXP using IE 7 (and now FF ver.2)

For ad-hoc network, make sure the password on your iphone for the network uses ASCII. Click the ">" arrow next to the password field on the network/join screen. Also, make sure the TCPIP address is set to static, following the instructions above. Looks like the screen needs to be on (set to never shutoff) (set your brightness to very low), if this isn't true, please let me know. You definitely don't have to be on the wireless tab for it to work. System-wide proxy works, however, with FF, you have to set the socks proxy to true (about:config) in the address bar and filter for socks.

The main way (I) could tell it was the newest one, was that the newest one doesn't require you to replace Services.plist with the original one after you finish in order to sync with iTunes. Right afer you run jailbreak you should still be able to sync with iTunes.

The "bad interpreter" error is caused by DOS line termination in the "tetherify-osx-intel.sh" file. Easiest way to fix that is to run (in a terminal - in the tetherkit directory):

tr -d "\r" < tetherify-osx-intel.sh > tmp
mv tmp tetherify-osx-intel.sh
chmod +x tetherify-osx-intel.sh

also you'll need to run (in a terminal - same directory):

for i in phase*; do tr -d "\r" < $i > tmp; mv tmp $i; done

(just copy paste the above *single* line to your terminal window and hit "return") which will Carriage-Return strip the "Phase" script files too.

I found I had to run the jailbreak program from the "phonedmg" directory that was set up with the original "Ringtone" install instructions. That got me past the AFC errors and allowed the SOCKS installation to complete without error.

I created a package that, hopefully, should get everybody working properly on OS X. You might still need to set chmod +x on tetherify-osx-intel.sh because of the unarchiver. I haven't tested that yet.

Also, if you're getting the AFC error, try using the jailbreak bundled with the tetherkit. That's how I got mine to work.

Yes... it appears as though there is a problem with the tetherify-osx-intel.sh script... same error as joewmpls

Softkey,
Do you have the corrected OS X files available to share? I can't get the files posted to work with OS X. I did the chmod +x ./tetherify-osx-intel.sh , but now get
joe-*****-computer:~/phonedmg joe$ ./tetherify-osx-intel.sh
: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
on the terminal. I am totally a terminal and programming nube so your comments about what else you did to get the files adjusted correctly won't help me (unless it is spelled out step by step)
No Mail on OS X though, huh?

Success - I think...

After setting up execute permissions on "tetherify-osx-intel.sh", changing line termination to Unix (LF) on the following files: "tetherify-osx-intel.sh", "phase1.script", "phase2.script", "phase4.script", then editing "tetherify-osx-intel.sh" to add a single set of single quotes around each of the "echo" lines causing each "echo" to have a single argument, protected from shell interpretation, then running jailbreak again from the "phonedmg" directory set up using the "custom ringtone tutorial" (link above) - following the link to its "If you have a Mac" instructions" and performing the instructions up to and including the running of "jailbreak" and rebooting the phone - the "tetherkit" instructions then completed under MACOS X and SOCKS started running.

Then performed the "system-wide" proxy instructions (above) and now my laptop Safari is using my iPhone EDGE to post this.

Couple of points. I cannot get Mail.app on my laptop to go through the proxy (perhaps a new definition of "system wide" we've not yet come across ( :-) ). and my iPhone seems to sometimes slip out of its EDJE connection and revert to a WiFi icon in its status bar. When the iPhone does this, my laptop loses internet connectivity. The iPhone magically reverts back to EDGE though and connectivity is restored.

Probably *most* importantly - I cannot get World of Warcraft to use the "system wide" proxy connection under MacOS X. I'm not sure why this is so important but, well, it just is!!

I can tell the SOCKS connection is responding on my iPhone by doing a "telnet 10.3.3.2 1080" from my laptop. Getting a "Connected" message indicates something is responding on iPhone port 1080 at least.

Can't wait for full DUN (Dial Up Network) facility to be established. Good Job all.

There a re a few problems with the MacOS X installation. First, the shell files are automatically expanded (at least using Safari as the browser) with no execute permissions and with DOS line termination. The permissions problem affects the "tetherify-osx-intel.sh" file (a manual "chmod +x ./tetherify-osx-intel.sh" should fix the permissions problem).

The line termination problem is a little more serious as this affects "tetherify-osx-intel.sh" (causing it to not find the application to run the shell script against) and possibly also the "phase?.script" files which are used as driver input to the "iphoneinterface" application. I used BBEdit to quickly switch line termination on these files.

Another problem with the "tetherify-osx-intel.sh" is that there are special characters imbedded in the "echo" statements. I fixed this by surrounding the echo payload with single quotes wherever "echo" is used.

Next the supplied "iphoneinterface" Mac application gives the error: Problem starting AFC: -402653150
I substituted the "iphoneinterface" program from the ringtone installation but this causes other problems. and that's as far as I got.

I'll probably try again after a strong drink and a few coffees.
