Does this work on Firmware 3.0 ?
@Sayani: yes, for me it does.
I ran this and immediately get an error and it crashes. Windows vista business fresh install of the app.
Oops.. I wonder why, you are the first one to complain. Is that a legal version of Vista you are running?
Any alternatives for Linux?
Hey guys anybody else have trouble selecting the true root directory option? Mine is greyed out and I cannot select it? And yes the iPhone is jailbroken.
just go Cydia>sections>afc2add this will free the root directory of iphone
Yes, i have the same problem, my iPhone is jailbroken and the app is running fine except for accessing the true root directory that seems like not an available option.
Your on 3.1 and its greyed out, you have to install that cydia app regarding blacksnow and 3.1
cant remember name, google it, but basically blacksnow jailbreaker doesnt install the ability to transfer files via usb…
the answer is right above…afc2add, just search it in Cydia
thank u so much

Hey Guys you should try DiskAid http://www.digidna.net/products/diskaid it works really better and is more efficient. You can drag & drop one or multiple files to your iPhone or iPad and access any application folder without jailbreak… works on PC & Mac as well.
fastbind,
almost $10 for an App?!? clearly overpriced => NO THANKS!
Hey, I didn’t see a solution for this, so I thought I’d repost. The files on my iPhone show up fine, but I can’t drag and drop between files. Any ideas?
