Worked for me on Vista Ultimate (XP compatibility mode) with my 1st gen. iPhone.

I had to exclude installer, though. It would crash while creating the firmware otherwise.


Nice work... looking forward for the new Installer 4.

Sorry, I'm a n00b when it comes to WinPwn

Open itunes with your iphone plugged in, follow the steps here:

How To Put The iPhone Into DFU Mode

Once you have put your phine into the DFU mode hold the "shift" button and click on "restore" in itunes then choose the custom firmware file that you created

Should i make a back up of the folder where the apps files are kept etc?

You would have to authorize your current computer in order to download the previous purchases. That's it.

LOL man a lot of people experience errors. Do you guys even read up on it before doing it? Or you just assume that everything will do itself for you?

I have to admit I like reading News here, but man it gets annoying as hell when about 90% of the posts in these threads are all the same. Error this, error that, what is DFU?

I always read up on what to do and never have a problem because it's DONE RIGHT. EDUCATE YOURSELVES BEFORE SCREWING WITH YOUR IPHONE!!

LOL

Did you download the correct .ipsw file?

Meaning if you have the 3G iphone did you download the 3G firmware?
