Guys,I totally agree with poetic_folly.... We are just discussing things about something else,not how Ziphone affects on our iPhones... And it should be in GENERAL IPHONE CHAT also....

True; today, the methods of reversing Ziphone's dangrous effects are more prominent, and it's not the kiss of death it once was. For "The Lowest Common Denominator" though; (He who would hit 'Do It All' without knowing whether it's a good or bad idea) its affects can remain irreverseable to this day. He might get lucky and stumble over the way to fix it, but if he was willing to take some lay-persons word that Ziphone is where it's at, I highly doubt it.Though a restore should bring your phone to normal, unless your bootloader is downgraded/wifi dead.
I remain optimistic that Ziphone will ultimately go the way of the DOS operating system, and that Zibri's story will become nothing more than a sordid tale of what made the iPhone Jailbreak Community great. The silver lining being that his horrible software forced others to create applications reminscint of the quality Apple Programmers are known for. He'll never receive credit for anything more positive than this, but there is that.
Personally, I think his 15 minutes of 'fame' were up quite some time ago, but I digress.
Cheers,

Hmmm..K you really have convinced me fully not to use ZiPhone anymore, downloading the ultimate kit of Stealth's. iIs worried now since I unlocked a couple of iPhones with this, but I did warn them if anything goes wrong not my fault

Hmmm, well I guess I need some opinions then. I bought one of those refurbished iPhones and I'm trying to remember but I believe it was version 1.0.2 or something like that. I then upgraded to 1.1.4, then used Ziphone to unlock and jailbreak. It has been working fine for a couple months and now the past two days I have noticed a weird problem of losing my signal (No Service). And not being able to get it back for awhile. I tried going in and out of Airplane Mode, turning it off and back on, I was resetting it. I popped the SIM out and back in and then tried my SIM (I'm on T-Mobile) on my old T-Mobile phone and it got a signal fine. So I popped it back into my iPhone and it finally worked. This has happened 3 more times yesterday, and I just keep popping the SIM in and out until it worked. Could this be a problem related to Ziphone? Or maybe a symptom of having a refurbished phone? Anyhow, let me know what y'all think. I'm thinking I should restore and use Pwnage but I guess I need to do some serious research on it first. Plus, should I use bootnueter before I do anything?!
Thanks peeps!

I stopped using ZiPhone when iPlus(2.0?) Came out. It really sucked before and made me screw up my first phone(which some how ended in a totally non-working touch screen). This is why people on teams have to stay loyal and not release their own program using an unfinished version of the team's program. It can mess shiznit up badly, its not finished and its fudged up.
Put your hands it the air, and hate ZiPhone just like you dont care!**note: dont hate its maker though...he's just a human =\**

ok here's the question..
i have a 16gb, 1.1.4 I unlocked, jailbreaked and activated through Ziphone, needless to say i used the "Do it all" button, i have had my iphone for about a month now, and never had an issue about anything... wifi and edge goes flawless, phone and sms and email too, in a word, perfect
but i've read most of the posts here and i started to hesitate...
what you think i should do? should i restore and re-do all the process now with Iliberty or any other of those you mention? or should i just stay as i am?
