I've been wanting to jailbreak my iPhone again, but when I did it the last time, I had a very hard time figuring out how to change my root password. I eventually got so frustrated that I went back to stock firmware. I tried using a few SSH clients on my PC, but I found things sort of confusing, and I could never get the instructions for changing your root password using an SSH client to work. I could also not get Mobile Terminal to work on the iPhone. Not only could I not see what I'd typed, but I couldn't see the responses that Mobile Terminal gave me, either. So, I'm looking for a way to accessibly change my root password.
On a sidenote, do I need to change my root username, as well? I think I might, but I'm not sure.
Looking forward to jailbreaking again,
Shersey
