Telnet not working

Hi, I haven't been able to get telnet to work correctly on my 2XS. I've enabled debug mode as well as debug logging, side loaded a sample app, but when I telnet, I get:

~$ telnet 192.168.1.130 8085
Trying 192.168.1.130...
Connected to 192.168.1.130.
Escape character is '^]'.


I expected to get a telnet prompt ] or at least some output from the Dbg("hello") sprinkled around the sample app. But nothing ever prints in the console after that last line, and when I enter a ^C or any other ctrl character, nothing happens. I need to kill the window or telnet process to get out of it. I'm running a Macbook, but I also tried from my Win8 PC, and got basically the same thing.

Re: Telnet not working

Your sideloaded app is running when you connect through telnet right?

Nope! That was it, thanks! (Also I had another telent session connected from another window that needed to be killed)
