When you can't get your network device to work with Ubuntu 7.10 on VMware Fusion, simply enter the following command in your terminal:
sudo dhclient eth0
This will force your system updating it's IP-address with VMware's DHCP server.

VMware installs some kernel extensions to your mac by default. These extensions also run when you don't have VMware open, so basicly it slows down your system startup and usage.
To load and unload VMware's networking kernel extensions manually, follow these steps:
- Install VMware
- Run Terminal, and enter:
sudo rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vmware.launchd.vmware.plist
and enter your password
- Restart your mac
- Run Automator, and choose a custom workflow
- Drag "Run Shell Script" in the left pane under Library/Utilities to the workflow on the right
- Enter the following command in the input field:
sudo /Library/Application\ Support/VMware\ Fusion/boot.sh --start
- Drag "Launch Application" to the workflow, and choose VMware
- Save the project as an Application, name it "Start VMware"
- Redo these steps and enter as shell script:
sudo /Library/Application\ Support/VMware\ Fusion/boot.sh --stop
and in stead of "Launch Application", choose "Quit Application" and safe also this project as Application, name it "Stop VMware"
Now, when you want to use VMware, just double click on "Start VMware", and when you quit, run "Stop VMware"
After installing Geohot's software unlock for 1.1.2/3 OTB, my iPhone was REALLY messed up.
It responded very badly, and the speaker was gone.
I decided to downgrade back to 1.1.1 and jailbreak him again, but that wan't as easy as I thought.
When I restored 1.1.1 with iTunes 7.4.2 I was getting errors like 1011 and my iPhone just woudn't respond anymore. I managed to get it bootup once, but it still didn't responded fast to my input on the keypad.
I decided to
restore the phone to 1.1.3 (!), and suprisenly my iphone responded fast and the speaker worked again!
Next thing was getting 1.1.1 again working, in order to jailbreak the device.
I managed to get 1.1.1 restored with iTunes 7.5, got out of DFU mode with Independence and I jailbreaked it again:
From the start:
- Connect your iPhone to your computer
- If it doesn't show up in iTunes, then put it in DFU mode by pressing and holding both the Power button and the Home Button. After 10 seconds, the iPhone's screen will go black; let go of the power button, and continue holding the home button until iTunes displays a pop up. Click OK.
- alt+click on restore, and point iTunes to the 1.1.1 firmware, and let it restore
- When done, hopefully it displays the emergency screen, if not, eject the iPhone in iTunes, quit iTunes and bootup independence. Let it connect for a while and hopefully the iPhone is getting kicked out of DFU mode. If not, restore again
- Slide to get to the emergency screen
- Type *#307# and press Call
- Now, if your iphone does NOT respond well on your input, and you don't hear the speaker anymore, restore to 1.1.3, and start again fromt he beginning !! (when restoring to 1.1.3, the baseband will be completely re-written, which fixes the encountered problems)
- press the Back button on top of your screen to delete the just typed *#307#
- Your phone will start ringing do not pick up
- Delete all just typed numbers and type 0 then press call again
- Your phone will ring again now press accept and then press hold
- Your phone will ring again now press dismiss and your phone will go to the contacts/dial screen
- Press contacts, add a contact without a name
- For this contact you now have to add an URL (web adres):
This has to be exactly: prefs://1F
- Save your contact and click on the url, you will now get to the Settings menu in your iPhone
where you select your WiFi and make sure the Auto-Lock is set to Never
- Restart your iPhone
- After your iPhone restart the Wifi icon should be back (indicating WiFi is working), if not then repeat step 1-10 again
- If your WiFi does work repeat step 1-8
- Now add another contact, with a different namen and with the URL: http://jailbreakme.com
- Save this contact and
Go to the URL you just saved (http://jailbreakme.com)
and install appsnap.
- Launch Installer.app
- Install BSD Subsystem
- Set Auto-Lock to Never
- Install SoftwareUnlock for 1.1.2OTB and 1.1.3OTB (because the readme says, this can only be installed on 1.1.1
- Scroll down to Tweaks (1.1.1), and install OktoPrep
- Connect your device to your computer
- Launch iTunes
- Choose your device, alt+click on UPDATE, and select the 1.1.2 firmware file
- Wait forever for your device to update reboot
- Close iTunes
- Download 1.1.2 jailbreakon Mac, double click on jailbreak.jar, on Windows, double click on windows.bat
- Follow the on screen instructions and be patient
- Now your iPhone is 1.1.2 jailbroken
- Install iWorld
- Done.
