I got through all the steps, now I'm waiting for my iPhone to reboot and nothing ! It's keeps buzzin like it's going to turn on but it doesn't and itunes doesn't show that my iPhone is connected ! Can somebody post what to do now?
Can I use this method to jailbreak an otb iphone 3g thereby also activating it? Or is there another procedure to follow to activate it first. Kindly help.
everything was ok untill the third step man it came out a pop out when i click to launch quickpwn it says an error had cause the program to stop runing WTF?
BTWW i am running on vista 32bit system help me man
I get to the QuickPwn step where it says 'wait for your phone to connect in Recovery Mode'... but nothing happens...it wont connect??? Anyone got any ideas? It connects OK through I tunes and I can get this far on the jailbreak. Am I doing anything wrong?
I succesfully jailbreaked my iphone 3g with firmware 2.2.1. and it works great. I had slight problems with ipsw file. After some delay I removed zip extension and I was able to find ipsw file when QuickPwn asked me to browse for 2.2.1 firmware. Go to Start, Control panel, Folder Options, View, Hide extensions for known file type and then rename folder and remove zip extension. I hope this helps. Bye
Currious, I have been using ym Iphone since august 08, if I do this restoral for the jailbreak will it wipe all my contacts and everything? if it does is there anyway to merge the two restores, my original one with the jailbroken version?
When I get to the `Browse for ipsw` step, I put in the file, 2.2.1, and it should be working, but the blue arrow wont load, and so I cant carry on with the jailbreaking. Nor can I see the iPod that should be on the left hand side. (the one that gets a check mark). Help please?
I am having exactly the same issue. Browse for the firmware and says that quickpawn does not update firmware. It seems the firmware has an extra "2_" at the star tof the file name or something. Please help !!!
if you want to unlocke your phone by useing yellowsnow do not upgrade to 2.2.1. you do custom restore to 2.2.0. I just did my.I have the same firmware.
Hi,
I followed the instructions. In the middle of first steps (restore with itunes) i get error (9) can't restore. What can I do? if I restore it will put the newest version, which is not jailbroken and i will not be able to jailbreak it... how do I restore to exactly what I had before trying?
thanks!
My i-ph 16Gb 2.2.1(5H11)froze before I got to Step3...!
Screen has as a pic of a USB plug and an arrow pointing it at the iTunes logo which has a little picyure of a lock just above it...
I restored my iphone using iPhone1,2_2.2_5G77_Restore.ipsw & quickpwn. Everything worked, except that i dont have service.
Can someone help me please? ( flex60mph@aim.com )
