if you restore the backup it wont undo the jailbreak but you may be stuck not able to change your wallpaper

Everything went fine, bumped up the partition to 750. Is everyone else getting only 6.8 GB left on an 8 GB phone? With no other apps installed?

Nooooo!!! Each device has different firmware. You have to pay for the update to 2.0. However I have a link to the iPod 2.0.1 firmware

Not sure if I'm allowed to post the link though, If I'm not, someone please remove it.
So no need to pay for it now

Actually i did. But i ran into a problem that winpwn would not build the ipsw if i only selected cydia and installer. its kept saying failed to build ipsw. so I then just selected all 3 options and uncheck the activation of the phone. it was succesful in jailbreaking the phone but i had no ATT service.

Ok, dont use Ziphone to put it into DFU follow the steps correctly. Once again here are those steps.

With itunes open and your phone at the locked/unlocked home screen.
Use the "ipwner" feature in winpwn to kill itunes. (select your custom ispw you created)
Reopen itunes then:
Hold Home+Power for 2 seconds after the screen goes black.
Release power still holding home
Release home once your pc and/or itunes picks up a phone "in recovery mode" or (ding dong) Screen should still be black at this point.
Now shift + restore with the custom ispw you created and pwned itunes with.

And btw Ziphone does put it into a "Soft DFU" Youll notice this when your screen with the itunes logo is actually a blue color not black. But never the less, it will not work for this process.

I know this may sound strange but you have to completely close winpwn and itunes or you will get that error. For some reason you wont be able to build the iPSW. After you close the programs then open them again you should be able to build the iPSW, dont check activate or youtube fix.

When you get that error leave the phone as it is, and reopen itunes and shift restore again. You might also try when it seems to hang unplug and replug into a diff usb

Make sure you have Open SSH installed through Cydia. Also try closing WinScp and turning your wifi off and then back on. Trying a different ip sometimes helps. I always do this using BossPrefs. Its the easiest way.

i have a problem with my iphone (2g)

i once pawnd it n install 2.0.1 wid cydia but i forgot to tick installer wic i wanted actually..

now from then i tried to reinstall i get error 6 in the beginning..

then i searched n found that the cell wasnt in DFU mode..

now even after i put the cell in DFU mode, it goes till the step Preparing iPhone software for restore and it stays there for a pretty longtime and then it gives me an error with the number 6..

Even i tried degrading to 2.0 (nt pawnd ) and den upgrading it but no use it dint help me..

Could any1 sugges to me a solution..??

[anarchydude]

First time jailbreaking an iPhone.. not hard at all!

One weird thing I ran into was when selecting the custom logos, the one actually had a size issue (over 100kb) but it still showed up after the phone was pwned. Weird, but whatev

For those who are still confused about DFU, what made it easy for me was listening to the chime you hear when a USB is disconnected (WinXP). After I heard that I let go of the power button. Went into DFU first time.

Trying to sync up with my previous backups is not possible because of the software being "too old". I assume this is what is meant by activating your phone again, correct? I made sure my contacts and such were backed up.

I just had Cydia checked, still get my regular reception. Not bad!

[thechadster]

Guys yhis is very easy;
1.Turn on computer
2.Plug in phone
3.open itunes...sync and back up
4.open winpwn
5.download 2.0.1 fimware from mmi to desktop
6.browse ipsw from desktop
7.build custom, uncheck activate, check cydia and installer, change partition size to 750mbor higher
8. pwn itunes
9. re-open itunes
10. put phone in dfu mode
11. hold shift and click restore
12 locate your custom 2.0.1 and restore
13.after complete click restore from backup...done!!!
(if it asks you to retore from backup again click it to back up from previous again and then ctrl-alt delete, shut down itunes, then reopen, itunes will then allow you to sync)
hpe this helps.

I just posted a helping tip for this.. basically when it appears to hang try unplugging and replugging into a diff. usb port or the same...

[Bleeditout2130]

For the folks with errors:

15. Now click ‘Ipwner’ button in WinPwn and browse/select the custom IPSW you just created. Click ‘OK’ after receiving the ‘Your Itunes has been Pwned!’

NOTE: If you have tried the WinPwn process and received the 06, 1600, 1601, or 1602 error messages, you probably skipped this step (as we learned the hard way after an hour of frustration).

Hey Kurrupt,

I'm new to this pwning thing but i understand that one of the best ways to do it and transfer files is with SSH and winscp. Can you tell me where the most dumbed down explanation of how to use these is? I have googled and done research but it's either way too technical or very jumbled.

Just looking for a good starting point to understand and learn this.

Thanks,

[HarlemState]
