Unable to connect on port 8080 about wifisms

[dlamanna]

I also have this issue - iOS 4.1, windows 7 x64, tried opera and chrome. I've enabled/disabled wifiSMS in sbsettings several times, restarted my phone, etc. I can SSH in fine, have turned off my firewall, nothing seems to work.

Hi, I've just installed this app, rebooted, reinstall, rebooted, unistall, install, rebooted and I can't connect on :8080. i've download netstat on AppStore and I don't see the port 8080 in listening .

I've try with the SBSetting wifiSMS icon on ON and OFF.

i've an Iphone 3G under iOS 4.2.1 and i've installed the WifiSms with cydia.

Can you describe how install the application with ssh and .deb ?

Thanks for help ;)

Still not able to use this App.. May you provide us the location where this App gets installed..? I dont see it inside /Applications. Also, is there any location where logs get generated?

[ash007osh]

Well I found following...

cat /private/var/mobile/Library/SBSettings/Commands/com.WifiSMS.enable
#!/bin/sh

if [ -f /tmp/WifiSMS-ON ]
then
rm -f /tmp/WifiSMS-ON;
killall WifiSMS;
else
touch /tmp/WifiSMS-ON;
sudo -u mobile nohup /User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS "$*" > /dev/null 2>&1 &
fi

So I tried, running the command as it is.. but Redirected the outout to /tmp/newlog..

iPhone:~ root# sudo -u mobile nohup /User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS "$*" > /tmp/newlog
nohup: ignoring input and redirecting stderr to stdout
nohup: failed to run command `/User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS': Bad CPU type in executable

iPhone:~ mobile$ file /User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS
/User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS: Mach-O executable acorn

Is there some compatibility issue with iPhone3G????

[dlamanna]

I'd just like to add that I'm also using an iPhone3G (forgot to specify when I originally posted)

[shaszard]

I don't think is a wifisms issue - I also had problems so tried accessing it from the iPhone itself. That worked fine, I tested OpenSSL and "Folders" app as well.

Basically it seems the iPhone is simply ignoring inbound requests or blocking them somehow. I think it's specific to the 3GS phone and possibly only iOS 5.0.1.

Anyone able to confirm these thoughts??

[dlamanna]

Possibly, but it can't be exclusive to the 3GS or iOS 5.0.1

Everyone posting in this issue previously has an iPhone 3G and <= iOS 4.2.1

[shaszard]

Lol I should learn to read properly before posting sorry :)

The app is compiled with armv7 only (3GS and up, 3G is armv6) I believe.
Simply recompiling it with armv6 added to architectures should let it run in 3G.

[dlamanna]

Hmm, that would be awesome if the issue was that simple. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to try that fix myself - would it be too much to ask for you to create a separate branch for the 3G? I'd be able to test it pretty quickly if that was the case.

[fopina]

Well, the bad cpu type is definitely from being compiled with the wrong architecture. And if it only happens in a 3G is must be armv6 missing in the supported architecures.
Unfortunatelly, due to #32 I can't compile WifiSMS working for iOS4. Well, I can compile but sending SMS won't work (everything else should). That's why I only said what should fix it, but not actually done it :)

[fopina]

Ok phuzE, I assume you can get around with deb files, so here's a version compiled for armv6. To remember: sending SMS won't work, this is just to see if everything else works :)

[dlamanna]

Nice, worked like a charm! So sending SMS is not possible or just currently not working?

Thanks again.

[fopina]

As I said before, the code to send SMS in iOS4 is there, it's just that I can't compile that part in my environment, but treason can. I've sent a pull request with the change and let's just hope he includes that flag in his next release :)

[gplanas]

I had the same issue. However, I have a iPhone 4 running IOS 5.1.1. I plugged my phone into my PC to charge and it worked.

[clarity99]

same issue (not being able to connect to 8080) on iphone 5, ios 6.1.

[Tatsh]

Also cannot get this work here. Connection is refused.

[Tatsh]

It crashes on start. Crash log here: https://gist.github.com/Tatsh/625fabe99fe1e7acceb5

This is from a iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.1.3:

dyld: Symbol not found: _OBJC_CLASS_$_CKSMSService
  Referenced from: /User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS
  Expected in: flat namespace
 in /User/Library/WifiSMS/WifiSMS

I guess it's not compatible with iOS 6?
