Have you in fact confirmed that the dropbear / openssh process is running?
This would be a good first step.
the logs would probably indicate something about this. I forget exactly what I had to do to get logs out of the device. (EDIT: There are lots of threads on getting logs - probably even for the 4)
I have another question. Is it only possible to connect to the 4 via USB in DIAGS?
That seems a bit rubbish. Seems like an install that correctly made the process start NOT in diags would be more helpful. It's just an application after all. no magic in the whole "Diags" thing that makes it magically work in some way that it doesn't do with the regular runtime... A hacked IPTABLES with a port 22 allowed (just until you get running)
Then you could do this also via Wifi. just to rule out a bad cable or maybe a driver issue. Or something in Diags killing your dropbearmulti install.
Seriously. Where is this installer for the 4? Is there not a non-diags one?
Sigh... 4's meh.

First of all, please forgive me of being a total noob.
Secondly, I do not know what is an dropbear or openssh. so I do not know how to confirm if these things are working......



thirdly, when you said installer for 4, you meant the USBnetwork installer? I found it the "giant thread" in this link.

Lastly, at least do you think what I did was correct (only in terms of those IPs that I mentioned in the thread before yours?)
