Thanks forthat! I was wondering hybi couldn't find anything on it!


I couldn't get wincp (i think that's the name lol) to the iPhone via wifii. I guess I'll reinstall it again and give it another go! Anyother ideas??

And thanks a lot I really appreciate you helpin this noob out lol

thanks! that worked great! ive gt the games on there - now NES just opens and then shuts right down...lol

seems like its more trouble than its worth jailbreaking sometimes...lol

Meh. You should have been jailbreaking a couple years ago. No fancy one-click jailbreak. We had to write lines of code and it took hours.
I'm sure the fix you need is simple. Are you sure you placed the rom's in the correct folder?

haha - i can only imaging lines of code! i must say, once i got it to work, Spirit was fantastic!

yeap, im pretty sure they are in the right folder. i am at work now so cannot double check but i followed the directions pretty well (had to create 2 folders if i remember correctly)

ive been searching high and low for a fix ! lol this was one of the main reasons i jailbroke !

thanks for your help!
