    Default Snowbreeze 2.0.1 & iPhone 3g

    I hate to add to the countless posts about snowbreeze and the iphone 3g, but i cant seem to find a straight answer. Anyways I have a 3g on 4.0 and want to upgrade to 4.1. I'm using t-mobile so i need to hacktivate and use snowbreeze. But I have read that there are some problems with cyidia and 4.1, also does ultrasn0w work fine on 4.1?

    Yes, ultrasn0w will work fine on 4.1 if you use sn0wbreeze 2.0.2 which will prevent baseband to be updated.but there are still some problems remaining, can't restore backup from itune, youtube is not working

    There is nothing wrong with the updated Snowbreeze 2.0.2, it will hactivate , preserve your baseband, youtube is working and is not advisable to restore from Backup, you should set up as a New Iphone.

    Thanks to Snowbreeze, without it, we wouldn't be jailbroken at 4.1 and will be still waiting...

    You know that at 4.0, if you use jailbreakme , then you cannot go straight to Snowbreeze 2.0.2, you have to downgrade to 3.1.2 first and apply Redsn0w, before proceeding to Custom Firmware.

    You must put your iphone into recovery mode first and then restore to custom firmware.

    Good, then you know what you are doing. If you have any problems , come back here, we will guide you.

    Me neither, the new ireb 4.1, i am still not sure what it does too. I have read it, it says it will bypass all errors. You don't really need that, 3g is simple.

    Usually error 1604 is you are appyling custom firmware to a non jailbroken iphone.

    I dont know but mine was jailbroken and iReb seemed to fix the issue. Everything is working fine now, i just need to install all the games and put all the music back on

    One last problem is i cant seem to find anything that will fix the "cannot connect to youtube" error. Push Dr. doesnt seem to work. Are there any other packages that might fix it?

    You can add cydia.pushfix.info and install Youtube Fix or Push Fix. Uninstall Push doctor first.

    I had to reboot my 3G to get Push Doctor to work, though I'm still on 4.0. I can't seem to get past the backup/restore w/iTunes issue with 4.1.

    I got if fixed by not activating via sn0wbreeze and keeping an AT&T sim in during installation.
