Since running this code I can't access my device via SSH/WinSCP, get '"Connection Refused' err msg
Also tried device terminal command "ssh user@local host" with escalated privileges (as devel-su) but get similar 'Connection Refused' err msg ???
HELP!!

Yay, it's turn to become locked out...
Device: N9pr1.3
I cannot access root with devel-su as I am getting "password incorrect".
I cannot access the phone withj SSH (connection refused)
Cannot edit sshd_config as I need root privilages
Cannot change passwd
Cannot find a hammer within close proximity to smash the bloody thing.
I have been through this thread and others + Links but still can't gain root access?
I have not tried opensh as the page linked above suggests you need open mode which I do not have as I'm using inception.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks

minkin2,
Use N9QTweak to do it... Since it has root privileges without having to enter the password to use the app... It will allow you to set a new password too...

I tried this and now my phone won't connect to the internet, it says it's in flight mode even though it's turned off. Bluetooth is also stuck on. Nokia suite and Nokia software updater won't recognise my phone, so I can't reflash the firmware. Would anyone be able to help me with this?

The default user is already called 'user', so i can't create that. Also changing the password for 'user' isn't allowed, issuing passwd returns 'The password for user cannot be changed'. :(
Edit: Ok i managed to change the user password through devel-su, i can ssh in now. Still not sure what the default password was supposed to be...
If in /etc/passwd you change user:!: to user:*: the user account should work normally. Remember to either set user password (as anyone could otherwise login as user) or disable logins with password from /etc/ssh/sshd_config completely and use key based authentication instead (recommended).
I strongly advice against enabling root login in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. First because it's often a security risk (always if you have password based auth.) and second because it's simply unnecessary. Just login as user and change to "root" with devel-su and/or elevate priviledges with develsh when needed.
