Get full access over your N900 file system in 3 easy steps! Watch out what you replace or delete or you might end up with a bricked device! ! Always make a backup first ! ! Never edit files in "sudoers.d"! A. Wi-Fi Wireless router required! 1. Enable the maemo.org repository by simply clicking this link (you should have it by default if your device is updated) (if you don't find the files requested below, the extras-testing repository too, manually by entering the details linked here into the app manager. 2. Install the following apps: Open SSH Client and Open SSH server on your N900. be sure to enter a strong password that you'll remember for Open SSH! In case you forgot to enter a password or want to change it, install, ROOTSH, open terminal and type "sudo gainroot" [enter] "passwd" [enter] and you'll be prompted to change/enter the new password you should also install the showIP widget for your desktop 3. Download WinSCP, a very nice free SSH client for windows and configure it as follows: Host name: your N900 ip, get it from over here or install the showIP widget from app manger. -please remember that it may change on router/modem resets or because of your ISP Port number: 22 User name: root Password: a strong one - same as the one entered in Open SSH Protocol: SFTP + SCP fallback B. USB Default cable is the only requirement! 1. Install Mad Developer (step A.1. may apply), run it and: press "Manage USB" -> "Load g_either" -> "close". enter the following IP: 192.168.1.30 -> "configure" (this address for WinSCP as well and settings from step A.3. apply). 2. Connect your N900 via USB and: select the older driver(32bit only) or the newer(32 and 64bit) driver. change the IP, Gateway and DNS of the newly created network connection to 192.168.1.31. 3. When you want the old USB mode back, re-enable mass storage mode via: "Manage USB" -> "Load g_nokia" -> "close".
