i used winpwn yesterday to unlock a 2.0.2 phone, im pretty sure it wasnt pwned before, had no problems in itunes 8.0

Ok well this happened to me just my luck >.<

I didn't know what happened and I was pretty much freaking out. So I was scouring the entire internet on ways to find out what was wrong until later on I saw this bulletin and I was relieved that it wasn't just me anyways what I did to fix this problem was use Quickpwn to flash it back down to 2.0.1 and that worked then I hooked it up too my friends comp who was still using iTunes 7.7.1 and then I restored it back to 2.0.2 and then used winpwn to pwn it and voila it worked and now im using a pwned 2.0.2 iPhone hope this helps someone with this problem!!!!!

XP: C:/Documents and Settings//Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes/Device Support
mac: ~/Library/iTunes/Device Support
(Where  is your login-user name)

im not entirely sure about the vista path but it will be something close to that

This didn't work on my mac... updated to iTunes 8. Restored to my stock apple 2.0.2 firmware. Deleted the file in device support... attempted DFU restore (error 1600) and Recovery Mode Restore (error 6).

I've downgraded my iTunes back to 7.7, THEN delete that file, build a new firmware in iTunes....and everything now works. iTunes 8 needs to be patched from the Dev Team for it to work consistently. Until then we have Quickpwn.

This brings up a good question. I've been happy enough to jailbreak with a simple quickpwn. It gives me Cydia and can install all apps/themes/etc.

So the question is:
What benifit do you get by loading a custom firmware via winpwn / itunes? I never really understood why you would want to do something the hard way if you get the same result.

Just used QuickPwn (mac) + Cydia/Bootneuter = Joy

1st gen iPhone, was on, 1.1.4 (Ziphone) -> 2.0.2 upgrade under iTunes 8.0 (35)

Shut down iTunes & helper.

Jailbroken + Unlocked.

Just finished re-sync & ALL good!

Thanks to the poster in this thread 4 the heads up!

Thank god some news! I thought i was doing something wrong when i kept getting the 1600 error. I should know better than to doubt myself.

I was trying to restore an iphone on 2.0.2

[kcrmson]

I wasn't able to restore in DFU mode either and letting it boot "normally" would make iTunes throw a fit (my OS apparently got corrupted after an app crash, will halt up iTunes indefinitely if booting in normal mode). I just tried plain recovery mode (plugged in, hold Sleep and Home forever until iTunes recognizes it) and I'm restoring and no 1600 error so far like I did with DFU mode. Restoring using my Pwned ipsw as well, under iTunes 8.

[Atokadd]

Thank god I upgraded.
Figures, im not suprised that something like this would happen.
Stay tuned people, I will.

Anyone having an issue syncing new/updated apps from iTunes 8 to your device?

Mine: quik-pwnd 2.0.2 16gb iPod, win-xp.

I keep getting the error "application(s) could not be installed because the ipod is not compatible." Syncing is quick and painless, genius playlist are created and loaded to the iPod, and even the app I installed on the Touch made into Applications in iTunes. It's only the updated and new ones I dl'd thru iTunes that won't sync to the iPod.

devs got a patch already!

gotta love the devs!

*awaits 2.1 and pwn with bated breath*

Hello,

This was done yesterday. I synced my iPhone first before doing anything. Unmounted my iPhone and downloaded iTunes 8.0 and installed the update. After browsing iTunes (Genius) is really strange. Some of its suggestions don't make sense. But going back, I turned off Genius and reconnect my iPhone and proceeded with syncing. No issues. Well, backing up is the same. I thought there would be significant change in speed as what was mentioned by Steve. Just a little feedback.

someone correct me if i am wrong, but when you use winpwn, it doesn't upgrade your baseband. When using quickpwn, you upgrade to the newest firmware(or whatever one you want to quickpwn), and you upgrade the baseband. Upgrading your baseband and lessens your chance of unlocking your 3G iPhone(if you hate att, or whatever carrier you have), whenever the dev team finds a way to unlock it.

oh my god f#ç& i tunes and the new 8.0....but thanks to this wonderful website.very helpfully...

[Starfleet]

I resolved my issue by expanding my root partition from 500mb to 800mb using winpwn2.5 (w/update). I do not know if it will solve all the issues but it did for me....
