[How-To] Install a .deb file

 

First of all, what is a .deb file ?
It is a package which contains everything you need to install an application (often coming from Cydia). The package is edited by hackers, they modify the code lines and then it becomes a cracked application.

There's different ways to install a .deb file, we will the main ones :
1st method : Mobile Terminal

 [Steps 2 and 3 are only if you never installed a .deb file with this method]

1/ Download the .deb file you want (example : LockInfo)
2/ Start Cydia, go to "Search", type "Mobile Terminal" and install it


3/ Repeat step 2 for "OpenSSH"

 

4/ Start "MobileTerminal"



 

5/ Type the following commands :
  • su  (press return)
  • alpine  (press return)  /!\ You won't see the typed password then don't worry /!\
  • dpkg -i nameofpackage.deb  (press return, replace nameofpackage with LockInfo for the example)
Note that you can rename the .deb file like 1.deb (it's easier to type)
 

6/ Reboot




2nd method : iFile (+ Safari Downloader)

Required :
If you experience some problems to access SSH :
  • copy the file iTunesMobileDevice.dll in the installation folder of the SSH software used.
  • display the hidden files
  • the file iTunesMobileDevice.dll is there : C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin


      1/ Start the SSH software you want (WinSCP, FileZilla, iFunBox...) and connect to your iPhone
      2/ Copy a .deb file in var/Mobile/ or the folder you prefer
      3/ Install the .deb file just by clicking on it




      4/ Reboot your iPhone


      3rd method : AutoInstallation

      [How-To] Create a Complete DEB Packaging

       


      Overview:
      You want release mods, hacks, etc really easy. Well packaging the hack makes it installing the hack very easy for the end-user without messing up permissions or other problems.

      Tools:
      iPhone or iPod touch
      SSH (OpenSSH installed on device)
      WinSCP (4.2.5 or higher)


      1. Setup
      First of all you would want to make a folder on your desktop. For this tutorial "X" is being used as a folder.

      2. Control File
      You will need a control file so you are able to package the DEB and for it to be viewable in Cydia/Rock.

      To do this make a folder called "DEBIAN" (ALL CAPS) inside the folder "X".
      Inside of the folder DEBIAN, make a file called "control" all lowercase and without an extension.

      Here is a brief description of the fields in a control file
      You need to add the below inside your control file except with your information. Make sure you add an extra space at the bottom of the control file

      Code:
      Package: com.yourcompany.yourapp
      Name: YourAppNameHere
      Version: Number
      Architecture: iphoneos-arm
      Description: Small Desc. about your app.
      Homepage: Your Website
      Maintainer: YourName 
      Author: YourName
      Sponsor: YourWebSiteName 
      Section: System
      Here is one of my own control file I use in Advanced Preferences

      Code:
      Package: com.csdev.advpreferences2
      Name: Advanced Preferences 2
      Version: B3-2
      Architecture: iphoneos-arm
      Description: This hack will give you more settings and tweaks. 
      Homepage: http://www.csdev.2x.nu
      Maintainer: CS Dev 
      Author: CS Dev
      Sponsor: CS Dev 
      Section: System

      3. File Structure
      Inside your "X" folder, it's going to be like the iPhone File System. Like if you want to add a file to the root partition, just put the file in "X".

      A. Application Structure
      To install apps with DEBs, inside of "X", make a folder called "Applications". Then inside of Applications, make your app folder (EX: Cydia.app)

      B. Theme Structure
      To install themes wth DEBs, inside of "X", make a folder called "Library". Then inside of Libary, make another folder called "Themes" . After that inside of themes make your theme folder (EX: Cydia.theme)

      Add your files using the structure above

      4. WinSCP and SSH.

      Open up WinSCP and connect to your Device. Navigate on your Device to
      Code:
      /var/root
      Copy the X Folder to your device. File Structure should be below
      Code:
      /var/root/X
      Inside the X Folder change the permissions of the DEBIAN folder and its files to 755
      Navigate to var/root/ and open up the terminal im WinSCP. Do this by clicking the black box in one of the toolbars.

      5. Terminal

      Inside of Terminal type the following command in the "Enter Command" Box.
      Code:
      dpkg -b X.deb

      It will pop-up some error and this is okay.

      The DEB file will be located in var/root/
      Code:
      var/root/X.deb
