This application does not work correctly yet. At first Doug was getting this error “Your firmwareGUID couldn’t be recognized, and therefore, music importing will not be avaiable“. However, he was able to fix this error by creating a folder a var/root.media/downloads folder and setting it’s permissions to 777. He was then able to download and save the songs in the application. However, when he goes to import them into his iPod the app just closes to the SpringBoard. The developer says this is a bug and he is going to be releasing an update soon. So, you can hold off on installing this one for now since is doesn’t function properly. iSlsk is available through the BigBoss source.

amen
It is a P2P client, using Soulseek network. You should be able to download music and then import it directly in your music database… The latter doesn’t work yet…

Marvelhous, it works! I could even find musics from different languages such as Brazilian songs. You can choose to delete the whole album, etc, and it keeps downloading in the back ground, so you can use another apps and the download keeps running.
Congratulations!
NOTE: share only musics that you have the rights.

Ken
it’s a P2P app. You can find and download musics
[Reply]
question: is this program sharing the musics on your touch? or it just connect in a computer to computer network?
[Reply]
You can hear your songs just opening the folder with “finder”, click on the song and “modify” button and then “open with”. First you have to install “av player”.

Excuse Me Guys But I Believe The Error It Shows Is “firewireGUID” Not “firmwareGUID”. o_O So i don’t if you already noticed it.

correction: I created the var/root/Media/Downloads folder and nothing happened… Please help I want to know where my downloads went after they downloaded…
1) check if you have “ioreg” binary in /usr/bin/ directory
2) If not download it from http://iphonefreakz.com/wp-content/ioreg.zip and upload it to /usr/bin
2) Connect with putty to your iPhone and run the following commands
3) chmod 755 /usr/bin/ioreg
4) chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/
5) chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/*
6) Download libncurses.5.dylib from http://iphonefreakz.com/wp-content/libncurses.zip and upload only libncurses.5.dylib to /usr/lib
7) chmod 777 /usr/lib/lib*
EXTRA STEPS TO EXECUTE IN PUTTY !! IT SEEMS THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE STILL HAVING ISSUES !!
mkdir /var/root/Media/Downloads (if it already exists it’s ok)
9) chmod 777 /var/root/Media/Downloads/
This last one should fix your itunes import problem.(credit goes to Edward from Touch Podium)
10) ln -s /private/var/mobile/Media/iTunes_Control /private/var/root/Media
IF you still can’t get it to work i suggest waiting for the next release.

Brooke & Doug if i brake any rules with those links just delete my post.
PS. I use mac so for mac users just use your internal terminal and SSH.
got the below info from here..
http://iphonefreakz.com/2008/05/14/islsk-p2p-music-sharing-on-your-iphone-or-ipod-touch/
Your Firewire GUID couldn’t be recognized and therefore music importing will not be available.
To solve this issue, you will need to do some hacking.
To learn how to connect to your iPhone and or iPod touch see this post.
Log in to your iPhone or iPod touch with SSH (Putty) and do the following:
1) check if you have “ioreg” binary in /usr/bin/ directory
2) If not download it from here and upload it to /usr/bin
2) Connect with putty to your iPhone and run the following commands (copy & paste )
3) chmod 755 /usr/bin/ioreg
4) chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/
5) chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/*
6) Download libncurses.5.dylib from here and upload only libncurses.5.dylib to /usr/lib
7) chmod 777 /usr/lib/lib*
EXTRA STEPS TO EXECUTE IN PUTTY !! IT SEEMS THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE STILL HAVING ISSUES !!
9) chmod 777 /var/root/Media/Downloads/
This last one should fix your itunes import problem.(credit goes to Edward from Touch Podium)
10) ln -s /private/var/mobile/Media/iTunes_Control /private/var/root/Media
IF you still can’t get it to work i suggest waiting for the next release.
Once your finished downloading and are trying to import, the app will crash.
Instead, Goto iappcat.com and search for MNPlight, from within that app you can click on the ipod and change the directory to your /usr/root/Mobile/Downloads and import the songs into your Iphone’s ipod that way.
Enjoi.

Correction: You can use vterm or mobile terminal from the iphone to invoke these commands. Also to download the necessary files click the link pointing to the original source. After you have put them into the proper directories, then use vterm/mobile terminal or ssh or putty, whatever you want…
This is how to get iSlsk working if you have the firewireGUID problem
1. Download the file below (it’s different than errrick’s ioreg file)
2. put it in /usr/bin/
3. chmod it to 777
4. ssh into your iPod/iPhone (use putty on windows or terminal on OS X/Linux… you need command line access)
5. type cd /Applications/iSlsk.app hit return
6. type ./iSlsk
7. it should say firewireGUID found, (if not reboot and try again) after the , there should be a number, copy it
8. paste it in a text document and save it in Plain Text Unicode (UTF-8) as fwid (no extensions)
9. copy it onto your iPod/iPhone in the folder /Applications/iSlsk.app
10. chmod everything inside the iSlsk.app folder to 777
10. reboot and re-enter your log in info, download a song, import it, and listen!
