Mobile Terminal Crashes On iOS 4.3.1? Here Is The Solution

Posted In Tips - By fooble On Friday, April 8th, 2011 With 19 Comments

For some unknown reasons I am able to open Mobile Terminal and it crashes while I try to open on my iPod Touch 4G. I was thinking around for a while what was the issue which causing this. Well, the reason was the current Mobile Terminal is not compatible with iOS 4.3.1. To get rid of this, download the latest version of Mobile Terminal by adding this repo on Cydia

1. Open Cydia. Select Mange Tab and hit on Source

2. Now click Edit and add the URL – yourcydiarepo.org and click  Add source

3. After adding the repo search for Mobile Terminal from Cydia and you can see the new version of Mobile Terminal 511-1 or 520 -1. Install it to make it work perfectly on iOS 4.3.1.
