Use Veency and iTunnel.exe to VNC connect to your iphone with no wifi

[zurie]

download iTunnel.exe from

iTunnel.zip

once you have iTunnel.exe run it with the command arguments

iTunnel.exe 5900 5900

this can be done by CMD prompt. navigate to where your iTunnel.exe is stored and run it from CMD prmt by typing iTunnel.exe 5900 5900

once iTunnel loads a black window up, open Chicken of the VNC, or a compatible PC / Mac VNC client and connect to the address:

127.0.0.1:5900

your iphone should prompt you for a incomming VNC connection, and you will now have VNC - Veency running / tunneling from your PC to your phone with no WiFi connection required.

enjoy!

(why would you do this!! - think, iphone connected to USB cable, plugged in and stored in your DESK at work.) VNC on your PC and you can send and receive SMS messages, check your email, and etc... enjoy!

Hi... I have tried this without any luck,

I ran with cmd,

itunnel 5900 5900

I then tried connecting via RealVNC 4, to the address of: 127.0.0.1:5900

The VNC viewer bounces back the error:

read: Connection reset by peer (10054)
Do you wish to attempt to reconnect to 127.0.0.1@5900?

While my cmd window displays:


new connection !
AMDeviceNotificationSubscribe = 0
iPhone attached !
AMDeviceConnect = 0
AMDeviceIsPaired = 1
AMDeviceValidatePairing = 0
AMDeviceStartSession = 0
MobileDevice: AMDeviceStartService: AMDeviceStartService: Could not connect to USB mux (error 10061)
AMDeviceStartService = -402653131
AFCConnectionOpen = 0

Any ideas please? You're the only person I've found so far that has wanted to do VNC'ing the right way around (imho!)

I was getting the same error until I realized that I was trying to connect to a VNC server (iPhone) that didn't have the server installed. I then installed the Veency program (Cydia) and I was able to connect successfully. You must have a VNC Server running on your device for the OPs instructions to work.

I'm still getting an error. I'm using TightVNC.

TightVNC response:
ReadExact: Socket error while reading.

Command Prompt:
new connection !
MobileDevice: AMDeviceNotificationSubscribe: USBMuxListenerCreate: No error
AMDeviceNotificationSubscribe: -402653131

Please help.

Thanks!

******HELP******

ok for an easy way to use veency on your pc go to network and sharing center>create an ad hoc network and then give it a name after that connect to with your pc and your iphone **Note You Must Have A Laptop or some type of wifi pc now after you do all that go to the network shown on your iphone/itouch and connect then press the arrow after that enter the ip address in realvnc on your pc. that is it so i hope that helped.

[Curare]

Thanks for the help, but I'm using my work computer which also very much locked down...can't get to network connections. I'm double locked that we don't have wifi at work. I can connect to veency using wifi at home and at work, but there aren't any open wifi connections at my workplace. I carry an external harddrive which will contain the software I need, if only it would work.

I also tried connecting via UltraVNC and here are the errors:

Connection failed - Error reading Protocol Version

Possible causes:

- You've forgotten to select a DSMPlugin and the Server uses a DSMPlugin
- Viewer and Server are not compatible (they use different RFB protocoles)
- Bad connection

Ok, I figured it out - I needed to install itunes. Since I have a locked down machine at work, I need to find a portable version of itunes.

Man installing VNC has gotta be about the easiest friggin thing to do! Just download Veency from Cydia, then goto RealVNC - RealVNC remote control software and download VNC Viewer. It's free even! RealVNC - Download VNC software

[CoBra1]

Thanx BIG BIG time, works GREAT and just what i needed... Keep up the GREAT work man, and thanx again

[masonholden]

in CMD i type itunnel.exe 5900 5900
and it says could not be recognized as a valid command.

what should i do.

[lokemotive]

Ive just upgraded to 3.0 and i dont think veency is working with it is there another 3.0 server download or does anyone have any suggestions.

Hi,

3gs jailbreak released and guide help for install | iPhone News, Help and Guides
then i installed the Veency (via Cydia)...
i ran the "iTunnel.exe 5900 5900" (from command prompt)
and then i tried to connect it via "TightVNC Viewer"
but no luck... i'm receiving the error:
CiTunnel>iTunnel.exe 5900 5900

AMDeviceConnect = 0
AMDeviceIsPaired = 1

Hi,

I had the same problem as some of you here. I'm sure you already noticed that Veency has been updated to work with the 3.0 firmware and works flawlessly over Wifi.

If you want to use veency over usb, download the iTunnel.zip in the original post and do the following:

1: extract the zip (duh!)
2: REPLACE iTunesMobileDevice.dll with the version from CProgram Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin\
3: run iTunnel.exe 5900 5900 (in windows via CMD)
4: direct your whateverVNC desktop application to 127.0.0.1:5900

I hope that works for everybody!

[kwickone]

Yep, that did help. Thanks!

I have just upgraded to a iPhone 3GS and jailbroken using redsn0w. I cant seem to get veency via usb with itunnel to work properly.

On my 2G I had veency wifi and usb working flawlessly.

I have installed veency via cydia.
D/l new itunnel and replaced .dll file from itunes directory when I run
itunnel 5900 5900 nothing appear in the window like previously when I did it with my 2g and when I try to connect using VNC Viewer it says Cant connect to server address ( i think) I tried selecting the plug-in and still the same error.

I cant use SSH either when using itunnel 22 22 I get a bind error.
I have gone through this thread followed instructions and no resolution
Anyone having same issues ?

Thanks

[legendb]

Not sure if anybody is interested but I've create a windows service that that you can use to run other applications from. I use it to start iTunnel (and uTorrent) when windows boots up. It also hides the command prompt. PM me if you're interested in using this.

[dev.khandegar]

for this error:
MobileDevice: AMDeviceStartService: AMDeviceStartService: Could not connect to USB mux (error 10061)

switch on ur SSH toggle in iphone first.. before connecting..

cheers
