sudo apt-get install ideviceinstaller python-imobiledevice libimobiledevice-utils libimobiledevice6 libplist3 python-plist usbmuxd ifuse;
sudo apt-get install libimobiledevice6 libplist3 ifuse;
sudo apt-get install libtool autoconf automake;
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev python-dev;
sudo apt-get install build-essential;
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev;



# -  - #
Step 1: Installing libplist
Download latest version of libplist from GitHub.
Extract the content of the zip file.

cd libplist-master
./autogen.sh
make;
sudo make install;



# -  - #
Step 2: Installing libusbmuxd

Download latest version of libusbmuxd from GitHub. 
Extract the content of the zip file.

cd libusbmuxd-master
./autogen.sh
make;
sudo make install;



# -  - #
Step 3: Installing libimobiledevice

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev;

Download latest version of libimobiledevice from GitHub.
Extract the content of the zip file.

cd libimobiledevice-master
./autogen.sh;
make;
sudo make install;



# -  - #
Step 4: Installing a better version of usbmuxd

sudo apt-get remove usbmuxd;
sudo apt-get install libimobiledevice-dev libplist-dev libusb-dev libusb-1.0.0-dev libtool-bin libtool;

Download latest version of usbmuxd from GitHub.
Extract the content of the zip file.

cd usbmuxd-master
./autogen.sh;
make;
sudo make install;



# -  - #
Step 5: Installing ifuse

sudo apt-get install libfuse-dev;

Download latest version of ifuse from GitHub. 
Extract the content of the zip file.

cd ifuse-master
./autogen.sh;
./configure
make;
sudo make install;



# -  - #
Step 6: Running usbmuxd and attaching iPhone
Run usbmuxd in the terminal and then plug in the iPhone.

sudo apt install usbmuxd;
usbmuxd

Now check to see if the device was recognized correctly by doing
dmesg | grep ipheth

If nothing shows up, try disconnecting the iPhone, running usbmuxd again, and then plugging back in. Then check again.

Step 7: Creating a mount point for the iPhone

sudo mkdir /media/iPhone
sudo chmod 777 /media/iPhone




# -  - #

Step 8: Editing the ifuse configuration file

The ifuse configuration file /etc/fuse.conf requires editing if you want to access the iPhone without being root.
Edit the configuration file using your favorite editor, for example gedit

sudo gedit /etc/fuse.conf

In the file ensure that the following two lines are under the line that says 
# Allow non-root users to specify the allow_other or allow_root mount options:

op$
user_allow_other

Save the file and quit the editor.



# -  - #
Step 9: Pairing the iPhone
Run the following line in order to pair your iPhone using idevicepair:

idevicepair pair;



# -  - #
Step 10: Mounting with ifuse
Run the following line to mount the device at the mount point specified earlier:

ifuse /media/iPhone



NOTE: 
At this point you may mount the root filesystem if you have your phone jailbroken by doing the following line instead

ifuse /media/iPhone/ --root

The iPhone should now be accessible at /media/iPhone through your file browser.
When you want to unmount, do the following two lines

fusermount -u /media/iPhone/
idevicepair unpair;
