There are two primary symptoms of a faulty dock connector:
1. The external speakers do not click or play music from iPod, but they do make noise when the phone rings.
2. At random times a notice comes up that says, “This accessory is not made to work with iPhone Charging is not supported with this accessory. Would you like to turn on Airplane Mode to reduce audio interference? You will not be able to make or receive calls.”

This accessory is not made to work with iPhone

The bad news is, there is definitely a problem with your dock connector. The good news is that there are 3 fixes to help you on your way.

The first fix is a simple hardware cleaning. The solution entails cleaning the docking area of your phone. I suggest using a dry soft bristled tooth brush. Some people have suggested using compressed air and vacuum tools. The key with this cleaning is to not make the problem worse by being too aggressive, and don’t use water! There may be other solvents that work, but I can’t recommend any (offer suggestions if you like). The idea here is that some kind of debris is in your dock making the iPhone think a device is trying to connect. Remove the debris and fix the device! (maybe)

THIS IS THE INTERNET. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.

The first fix works if debris caused the error, but not if the dock is actually faulty. My dock was faulty, but I was able to make the error go away with a trick – the trick basically disables the airplane warning inside the firmware. This fix does have risk, but I will make it as easy as possible. This fix works for firmware 2.2.1 and 3.0. If you can confirm that it works for other firmwares please let me know. At the time of this article, The 3GS phone is not jailbroken, so I can’t tell if it works there.

1. The phone must be jailbroken. This is a deal-breaker for some, but I highly recommend it. To get details on jailbreaking, check out http://blog.iphone-dev.org. This isn’t a jailbreak tutorial, so do that and come back.
2. After the phone is jailbroken, you will need to open up Cydia. There, you will be asked which kind of user you are. Choose “Developer” (it’s okay if you’re not a developer) then run the upgrades in Cydia.
3. You’ll need install a package called OpenSSH. The open ssh program allows you to get to the inner workings of your iphone from a regular computer. To find it, go to Search (in Cydia) and search for OpenSSH.
4. You’ll also need a program called wget, it’s a program that allows you to download files from the internet on the command line. Search Cydia for wget and install it.
5. A choice: If you want to do this directly on the iphone, install MobileTerminal from Cydia, otherwise you’ll need to check your wireless router to find out the ip for your iphone so you can log in with ssh (usually something like 192.168.1.##)

• If you’re going to use SSH:  If you’re using ssh you’ll need a computer with a terminal client. Mac has one built in, but for windows you’ll need to download a program called putty.
  On mac: open a terminal and type: ssh root@<iphone ip> wait awhile, accept the key, and then enter “alpine” as the password. (<iphone ip> is the ip number for your iphone, it is an ip number like 192.168.1.100)
  On a pc: open putty. In the “Host Name” line, type the ip for your iPhone and then hit “Open”. It will take several seconds. Accept the key, then use “root” as the login and “alpine” as the password.
  In Linux: same as mac. (I actually do this fix from Linux because it’s easiest, but i wanted to tailor these instructions for the masses)
• For MobileTerminal: Simply open the terminal icon on the iPhone and type: su root <enter>, then the password alpine <enter>.

6. You are in! (Aren’t you?)
7. Now all we need to do is replace the file that causes the warning screen and disables the dock when you are plugged in. Type these commands just like you see them – they will work the same for pretty much everyone (hit enter after each line):

cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/IAP.framework/Support/

mv iapd iapd.broken

wget http://www.huanix.com/iapd

chmod 755 iapd

chown root:wheel iapd

exit

exit

WAIT: Before you leave this site, will you consider using the paypal button at the top of this page to send a contribution? I’m not asking for much; but using paypal to contribute to web authors REALLY encourages us to keep up the work of helping to solve problems. Thank you!

There you go! You just disabled the dock warning nag. When you reboot you shouldn’t see the notice anymore. The external speakers generally work, but depending on how bad the dock is damaged it may or may not exit iPod randomly. So this isn’t a PERFECT fix, but it’s free.

IF something went wrong (?) and you have trouble using your phone, you will want to delete the “replacement” iapd and change the name of the backup to the original. I won’t give instructions here because people tend to copy random snippets of any instruction and i don’t want to confuse anyone.

A few useful notes from yyota@hotmail.com:

This iapd under OS 3.0 is not fully compatible, the process crashreporter keeps writting crash logs coming from iapd, it slows down the iphone a lot!!! It takes 50% cpu every few seconds.

To check this, synchronize your iphone with your Mac then check this folder on your computer:
/Users/xxx/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/xxx’s iPhone/
It will be full of iapd crash logs!

wine-116-itunes-no-devices.sh
(right-click the link to download this script)

to run it:
save the script to your desktop or home folder
open a terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal), navigate to the same directory as the script.
type: chmod 777 wine-116-itunes-no-devices.sh (hit enter)
then type: ./wine-116-itunes-no-devices.sh (hit enter)

This script will build a custom version of wine 1.1.6 that will run iTunes 8.0.1 on Ubuntu 8.10. The resulting installation of wine will *NOT* (?) recognize iPhones or iPods. This installation will NOT conflict with your existing wine installation – it is separate!!!

Expect to download 500+ mb of stuff and compile for 2+ hours. I may find a way to simplify it later, but my goal now is to get it working reliably and predictably for everyone running Ubuntu 8.10.

Please leave detailed feedback including your operating system and version of iTunes as well as other information (i expect people to try lots of different things). “it worked” or “it didn’t work” are not useful comments!!
As far as getting devices to work, my best shot was Marteen  Lankhorst’s rejected patches (http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2008-May/054483.html), but i haven’t gotten them to work with iTunes 8 (not sure why). Just in case you weren’t clear: This version WILL run iTunes 8, but it will NOT recognize your iPod/iPhone.  My current solution for that is with VirtualBox: http://www.huanix.com/2008/11/03/fixing-usb-on-virtualbox-to-allow-iphone-sync-with-an-ubuntu-host-running-windows-xp/

For those who care, I have used most of these applications on an old iPhone running 2.0.2, and my new iPhone running 2.1.

1. PdaNet (Cydia) – PdaNet is now available on Cydia and it allowed me to establish a wireless connection on my laptop through my iPhone in about 4 minutes. PdaNet is THE killer app for the iPhone.

2. Mobile Fotos (AppStore) – Mobile Fotos is a flickr uploader that geotags my photos and puts them on flickr instantly. It keeps me in touch with the people that might care.

3. Cycorder (Cydia) – Cycorder by Saurik is absolutely AWESOME – it turns the iphone into a video recorder with higher quality audio and video than you would believe to be possible with the iPhone.

4. Trailguru (AppStore) – My wife and I thoroughly enjoy hiking and trailguru is our hiking buddy. It collects gps waypoints as we hike and uploads them to http://www.trailguru.com for sharing and analysis. You can view information about your hike through the trailguru (which is awesome in and of itself), or export the kml file to Google Earth.

5. BossPrefs (Cydia) – BossPrefs allows you to control and monitor your connections – 3g, Edge, Wifi, Bluetooth, SSH, and email. It’s great to lock down your iPhone, or to use selective services to save battery life.

6. Pandora Radio (AppStore) – Pandora is just great any way you look at it. I have lots of music, but I get tired of it; Pandora keeps it new by suggesting (and playing) music based on what I already like.

7. MIM (Make It Mine) (Cydia) – MIM was one of the first jailbreak apps on the scene, created by the uber cool Erica Sadun. It allows you to change the carrier name to say whatever you want – it’s just cool.

8. GPS Tracker (AppStore) – Great for using the iPhone to track your own movement. I give the web address to people I’m travelling to visit and let them see how close we are.

9. Qik (Cydia) – Qik is a video uploader – i use it as a cross between cycorder and mobile foto; when I want to get video on the net quickly.

10. Facebook (Appstore) – Lot’s of folks are too cool for facebook. I’m not. The facebook app from the appstore is excellent – my favorite thing is the live status feed; it lets me see what my friends are doing without having to log in on the laptop.

1. Original iPhone Released
2. iphone-dev, with GeoHotz (George Hotz) begin the process of unlocking/jailbreaking.
3. GeoHotz gets booted from the iphone-dev team
4. GeoHotz releases his own version of the unlock called “gunlock”
5. Zibri adds an easy interface to gunlock and posts the app – garnering much of the credit in the process – ziphone.org

Fast Forward to July 2008:

1. iphone 3g is released 7/11/2008.
2. iphone-dev and George Hotz independently (but still sharing) develop the 3g jailbreak/unlock process. (created before the release of the iPhone, but not quite ready for mainstream release) 7/13/2008
3. GeoHotz is anxious to get the product out on the network, so he sets up a site taunting iphone-dev that he will release his process on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 @ 11:00am CST if iphone-dev doesn’t release theirs.

Now we wait. Whatever happens, it looks like we’ll have a jailbreak/unlock by Tuesday!

It seems like the iTunes network got a WHOLE lot more than they bargained for with todays roll out of the 3g iPhone. The “official” word was that no one could leave the store until their phone was activated, but that didn’t last long. The store officially opened at 8:00am, and by 8:20, they had only activated 2 phones. The phonecall I overheard with the bosses said that they should let people go home to activate… and now, here I sit. Trying to activate. Does anyone know a *#306# or *#307# hack that will disable the “Emergency Call” screen?

I upgraded to 1.1.3 using the upgrader in the repository on January 30. I did not choose hactivation. The phone worked for a few minutes, then went into Recovery mode; but I believe 1.1.3 is an “improved” recovery mode. The message from iTunes is “There is a problem with your iPhone.”

The hard reset (DFU) method has ABSOLUTELY no effect.

*#307# does NOT work, but *#306# DOES – but it’s modified. I am only allowed to make one call, and there’s no backspace button by the digits.

I CAN ssh in, but I haven’t studied the structure enough to know what’s right or wrong.

iBrickr does not identify a locked phone, and proceeds to display directory contents.

iDemocracy and AppTappInstaller Crashed on Vista. I am currently running AppTapp Installer 2.30 to attempt a restore to 1.0.2. It looks like a possibililty at the moment.

It worked! It Worked!

I have tried SEVERAL configurations of this restore, but what DOES work is AppTapp Installer v2.30 [http://www.nullriver.com/~adam/AppTappInstaller.exe] (standalone) on Windows XP home.

Open iTunes THEN run AppTappInstaller, and as soon as the iTunes screen changes to the regular page (with restore or upgrade), close AppTapp and recover using the Shift+click restore back to 1.1.1.

It worked. I have never been happier to see error 1015 in my life!!!

   Before you start:
   You’ll need a tool to get your phone out of restore mode. Resist the urge to panic every time you see the restore mode- it’s no big deal!
   I’m currently using iBrickr and found it somewhat easier (the file is somewhat hidden, scroll down and it’s near the top below some videos).
   Here are the basic steps:

   1. hold down the power (upper right) and home button (front center) until the iPhone powers down. When you see the silver apple, continue to hold the home button, but release the power button.
   2. Connect the iPhone with USB. Open iTunes, and after the phone is recognized, hold the shift key and left-click on “Restore”. When the dialogue opens, choose the iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw image. This takes me 4 minutes and ends with “The iPhone “iPhone” could not be restored. An unknown error occured(1015). (that’s okay!)Don’t worry if you don’t activate or have cell signal – that’s OKAY!
   3. You will finish the last step in “Restore Mode” – a picture of the usb cable plugging into iTunes. THIS is when you use iBrickr to return to normal mode.
   4. You are now in 1.1.1 firmware. Let’s jailbreak it! Connect to wi-fi, then use the iPhone Safari to browse to http://jailbreakme.com.
      1. Scroll to the bottom.
      2. Click on “Install AppSnap”
      3. Watch as it Downloads, extracts, installs, and patches!
      4. I occasionally have to try it a couple times before it installs.
   5. When the install finishes, open up the “Installer” app.
   6. Choose “install” and look for a progam called OktoPrep. Install it.
   7. Now we’re ready for 1.1.2!
   8. Unplug your USB, or plug it in now so the phone is recognized. You will have to do some basic “Set up your iPhone” stuff – just do it. skip the sync.
   9. Shift + click on “Update” DO NOT CLICK RESTORE and choose the iPhone1,1_1.1.2_3B48b_Restore.ipsw image that you downloaded earlier (yeah, right). I occasionally accidentally select restore, and I just have to go back to 1.1.1 and start from scratch. Don’t be like me.
   10. When it finishes, it may ask you if you want to download 1.1.3 – don’t bother.
   11. You will notice your installer is gone! Let’s bring it back! [Extract and] Open up 1.1.2-jailbreak.
       1. click on the batch file called “windows”
       2. choose to install ssh, and change your login password.
       3. Click on “Jailbreak!”
       4. Wait about 4 minutes.
       5. You may need to reboot, or it may reboot automatically, and you will see the installer!!
   12. It is currently the end of January, 2008, and the jailbreak for 1.1.3 has recently been released. Many programs do not install well in 1.1.3 right now, so I recommend installing many cool programs BEFORE you upgrade to 1.1.3.
   13. Now is also a good time to set autolock to never. Settings -> General -> Autolock -> Never
   14. You can now choose “Official 1.1.3 Upgrader” in installer. This takes about an hour and requires strong wi-fi, and the iPhone to be plugged in for power.
   15. Personal note: I am not upgrading my phone to 1.1.3 for now- too many apps don’t work in 1.1.3. I suggest waiting until February 15, 2008.

I installed 1.1.1, jailbroke it, then upgraded to 1.1.2, jailbroke it, and then used the soft upgrade in the installer to upgrade to 1.1.3. When all of that was done I began restoring some of my favorite apps (or trying to anyway!).

One of my primary apps – iFlickr, will not authorize now. MIM (Make it mine) is broken, Customize doesn’t work at all… and I haven’t tried many other apps. (MobileCast for direct downloading of podcasts works fine, as does LocateMe).

I will play with this again tomorrow, but I have a plan – I THINK that the best way to get things working well with 1.1.3 is to run the updates up to 1.1.2, then install all of your favorite apps, and THEN run the 1.1.3 update. It might be wise to wait a few more weeks before trying to install a lot of software natively on 1.1.3 as the dev’s haven’t had time to do patches yet.

My suggestion?

1. Restore to 1.1.1
2. jailbreak
3. Upgrade to 1.1.2
4. jailbreak
5. Install all of your favorite apps.
6. Do the soft upgrade to 1.1.3
7. Wait for developers to patch their software for 1.1.3.

I haven’t tried it myself yet, but I have a gut feeling that it ought to work a little better than installing apps on 1.1.3.

I must have accidentally referred to http://jailbreakme.com as jailbreak.com in some other post because I ended up with a lot of search traffic for “jailbreak.com”, well, i’m here to set the record straight jailbreak.com re-directs to some trash-link site called yeah.com – don’t bother!

The correct site to access the apptap installer for the iphone is http://www.jailbreakme.com!
