After jailbreak connect your iDevice to Mac or PC if you disconnected it and open, for example Mobile Terminal on Mac or Windows compatible SSH client like WinSCP. To access your file system using SSH you must know this:
  • “ root” is the SSH username
  • “alpine” is the SSH password (also you can change SSH root password).

Note: In case you don’t know your IP address then go to Settings => Wi-Fi => Your Network => IP Address Step 2. Now when you’ve done you need to add a command to SSH command line. Here it is:
wget -q -O /tmp/cyinstall.sh http://wyndrepo.googlecode.com/files/cyinstall.sh && chmod 755 /tmp/cyinstall.sh && /tmp/cyinstall.sh
