Attention All Power PC Mac Users (All Non Intel Macs)!!!!

It seems like almost all of the forums that I look at. old school mac users (PPC, pre-Intel macs) feel like they got the short end of the stick when it comes to modding. I had success using iPHUC, and I was wondering how many other PPC-users did also. For the next couple of weeks we old-schoolers need to stick together and help each other out. I though that I would post a new thread for PPC macsters, so that we can help each other out, because we no longer have to miss out on all the fun! I'm not very good, but I have modded my phone and i'll help any PPC-user the best that I can so they can do the same, all I ask is that when you get it, help another. Good Luck!

I have it on fairly good authority that PPC users have good things to look forward to in the iPhone modding world...

This is the guide that I used to install iPHUC:
http://www.modmyi.com/wiki/index.php...g_iPHUC_iPhone
This Guide I used to install ringtones:
http://www.modmyi.com/wiki/index.php...e_installation
After you use iActivator to jailbreak the phone, start with step 14 on the ringtone guide. (the other steps are to jailbreak on an intel mac)
at first I could not get it to work, but after careful review it was my error. my suggestion is to read all the directions first then try it because if you miss a step it doesn't work, I thought that I was doing everything right, but I wasn't. I bet most people that don't get it right probably do the same. In the iPHUC guide there is an important step in red at the bottom, that's what I was doing wrong. after you run iPHUC type "ls" in terminal to check your work, post it and somebody will tell you if it looks right. By the way I see a new iPHUC PPC download, I used an older iPHUC, so I don't know if it's the same file or a different. hope that answers some of your questions, post em up if you have more.

One other thing to note is that, where that second guide says to type "./iPhoneInterface" in Step 15, you want to substitute "./iPhuc" as iPhuc is replacing iPhoneInterface for us PPC users. It may sound simple, but it certainly had me stumped for a while at 1am last night.

which files don't you have. In the iPHUC tutorial it has links to most of the files you need. check here for ones that you may not have like iActivator and mobile.h
http://www.modmyi.com/forums/downloads.php?do=cat&id=8
If it's other files you need you have to list them.

what step on the tutorial are you getting to before you get these errors? Not sure I can help, but the more you explain the more likely someone else can.

it looks like you chose mac ports 1.5, right?

also try cutting and pasting the commands, I do that to minimize typos
