Fix your jailbroken iPhone camera
Fix your jailbroken iPhone Camera
I jailbroke my iPhone a while ago to see what all the fuss was about. I’ll probably restore it when the update comes out because it has some great features. It’s great to have more freedom with my iPhone, but there were some quirks that I had to either deal with or try to fix.
One of the issues that I just could not live with and had to fix was a problem with the camera app. It act like it’s taking pictures, but they would just show up as a white image block in the picture viewer. I also could not delete or manage photos that were stored on the iPhone.
Here is how to fix it:
- SSH into your iPhone. I recommend PuTTY for a client
- Log in as root. Password is usually “alpine” if you have not changed it. If it is “alpine”, change it now to keep your iPhone secure.
- CD / var/mobile/Media/DCIM
- chmod 777 101APPLE (you might have a directory called 100APPLE, chmod that too)
After that, you should be back in the picture taking biz.
