You could also copy plutil onto a specific location, run the command, and delete it off when you’re done inside installer. In fact, since this should only be run on iPod’s not phones, you may also want to do further processing in a bash script. You can use uname -m and grep for “iPod”. If found you have an iPod not an iPhone. You could then use plutil and do the appropriate thing. I’m happy to help you if you want. You know where to find me.

ispazio, because it is the same exact capability that all iPods need to enable the Camera Roll,and it seems like the N45AP,plist file has changed somehow, I’d recommend doing this:

Instead of checking firmware versions, check to see if Erica’s Utility package that includes plutil is installed. If it is, then just run an Exec command in your script that uses plutil to add Camera to the capabilities list.

Good luck,
Skylar

And you can always ssh, like Doug said, but this is much easier if you have dock installed.

I FOUND A WAY TO FIX THIS AFTER IT IS INSTALLED!

BUT, you need “Dock” installed on your iPod.

Open the installer through “Dock” and uninstall “TouchRoll”.

You don’t have to restore. Hopefully you have “Dock” installed on your iPod!

Wow the formatting of the preflight totally botched my reply. I’ll emai you the preflight script.

I said that the N45AP.plist file is used for display order on 1.1.2 and older devices but not on 1.1.3 or newer devices. The file is really a lot different. So your fix is only good on 1.1.3/4 and should only be installed on such. Further, if your fix did work on 1.1.2, it would wipe out the display order set by customize requiring the user to rehide his icons and reorganize everything.

Spazio – your install source should probably prohibit install on preflight
