iPhone Tip: Apollo Fix for 1.1.3
Apollo and mChat are two apps for the iphone that run much like adium or trillian, they are instant messaging clients that allow you to connect to multiple types of IM networks (msn,aol, yahoo etc.).
I’ve been trying to get Apollo or mChat to work on my iphone for a few days now, but I kept getting an error where it could not connect to network. After looking through many websites I still was unable to figure out why these apps would not work. I found the fix when I was searching through “installer.app” just looking for cool apps to install. The fix is listed under “Tweaks (1.1.3)” and titled “IM Chat 1.1.3 Fix” Simply install this, and then try logging into Apollo.
If you do not see “Tweaks(1.1.3)” listed under “install” in “installer.app” you must first install “Community Sources” which is listed under “Sources”, Once installed go back to the install page and look for “Tweaks (1.1.3)”.Also note, you must have “BSD subsystem” for Apollo or mChat to work. This is located under “system” in the install menu.
I hope this helps!

are you on firmware 1.1.3? if so, u MUST install the “tweak” for apollo and mchat. I have had no luck with mChat but my apollo seems to work fine.
i would suggest uninstalling the bsd subsystem, apollo or mchat (whichever u r planning on using) and then re install it all.
