Baseband Commands

About

In this page, you'll find some Baseband Commands. You can use them with Minicom 2.2, that can be found on Cydia.

After installing Minicom from Cydia, make sure the folder /usr/etc exists. SSH into your iPhone and then, type: minicom -s.
Now, select Serial Port Setup in the Menu and press Enter. Then, press "a" and set Serial Device to /dev/tty.debug (however, /dev/dlci.spi-baseband.extra_13 also works and appears to be more reliable than the other device).
Press Esc, and in the Main Menu, select Save setup as dfl. Now, select "exit".
To run minicom using ssh, just run minicom -w

Note: minicom does work on MobileTerminal only on root (use su) and only after it has been configured (through the steps above).

Open MobileTerminal.
Run the command su, enter your root password (default alpine) and then run minicom -w.
To exit minicom, slide your finger on the screen ("gesture") to the bottom right (if you haven't changed this setting in MobileTerminal settings), then press A, X and enter.

First, run Minicom. Then, type "at" and press Enter. Then, you can type the command that you want, have fun.
