Just upgrade to 2.21 - no problem on 1st gen.
There is a workaround but no pint with 1st Gen, upgrade and you'll be fine

Hello. I have had so many probs today with phone. I have Jailbroken iphone 1st gen. i was messing around and loading some new stuff from Cydia and Installer. After installing ICY everything went downhill. when i tried to load either of these it looked as if they were going to load but went back to springboard. at this point my phone is not being recognized in Itunes and the battery meter does not come up when i plug it in to charge. so... after deleting alot of stuff- thinking it may be a memory issue i realized in one of the blogs that i shouldnt even have 2.2.1. So i was going to try to restore and redo everything. I held the buttons down as instructed for 10 seconds and a funny looking man with his arms stretched out came up on my phone. WHAT IS THIS? after he finally went away phone went black. not sure if has completely died or off because it wont charge.

Why shouldn't you have 2.21? The only reason I know not to have 2.21 is if you have a 3G and want to use Yellowsn0w.

Your mistakes were installing installer and ICY.

The man with arms outstretched is Steve Jobs put there by the Dev Team when you jailbroke. With him on your screen you should be able to restore 2.21 no problem.

Can someone please let me know where to download "New CFW 2.2 for 2G (Classic) no more Cydia Crash".

I tried couple of times from the link in page 14th, which downloads from megaupload, but never succeeded. Please help with alternative.

One more Q:
I have unlocked 1st generation iPhone with Cydia installed. Please let me know whether I can upgrade my 1.1 firmware to 2.2 through Cydia in iPhone directly? If yes, which application?

theone77, whats preloaded on to this new CFW3.0?

[jjp72]

theone77 -

installed 3.0 CFW and it seems to have worked like a charm for the most part. thanks so much, i am in your debt.

i'm having one issue though - if i try to open cydia i get the top/bottom bar for about 2 seconds, then it disappears and returns to my springboard.

any thoughts/advice on this? i tried restarting the phone, but that didn't help.

thanks.

EDIT: nevermind, re-unlocked/jailbroke with pwnage tool and i've got cydia now. thanks.
