Can someone answer this simple question, i have a JB (used winpwn) 2G, ATT phone with 1.1.4 as my current FW. Can I simply update to 2.1 then either DFU or from the home screen shift restore one of the CFW floating around this thread. This just seems way too easy to be true. And can anyone confirm that they did this same exact (or very close to) thing and it worked. I am on PC with Vista.

Hey guys, I just put the first draft of the comprehensive 2.1 FAQ I mentioned a couple times earlier. If anyone has any more questions to ask, check this thread first!!

Hey WillyDavidK,

How is your phone's 2.1 custom firmware holding up over the last couple of days? Any serious bugs lately?

[WillyDavidK]

I did have an oddball issue where all of my music became 'other' in iTunes and I ended up making the situation worse trying to fix it. But a quick restore and a dose of quickpwn and I was back in business again!

Other than that, everything has been working seamlessly.

Jesus...I have a 3g 2.1 unit, am i totally screwed out of jailbreak for a PC?...Ugh

[ninthchamber99]

I was going to do the methods described but I decided to wait. I dont see the large number of people coming in here saying that it worked great, instead, everywhere I see people saying that iTunes is causing so many errors, or other apps are buggy, and quite frankly, if this was a true, 90-95% JB procedure then I would expect to see more people
doing/saying it worked with no problem for them. I will just wait for winpwn 3.0 to be released. Maybe someone who did any of willydavid's methods with no problems can convince me other wise, but I doubt it.

The phone has to be pwned first before you can install a CFW.

yes ppl are asking serious questions and im replying in a serious matter...all u gotta do is read...and since u want to point out stuff...i answered his question right...and everyone elses...read read read! The winpwn team or the guy who updates it or whoever posted on the actual site he does not have time and has been busy but will try. dunno how i am not answering the questions..might be sarcastic but it isn't hard to read...38 pages come on man! and u mean to tell me there isn't any answer to anyones question in this forum nor the site? so u can go kick rocks and pull ur head out!

I stated before i am not trying to come off rude but this is just getting out of control! ppl ask before reading. or there excuse is there is too many pages and i don't feel like reading so can someone plz explain to me! all whole thread is! are the same questiones being asked with the same answers from different people with different wording!

Sorry for coming of rude ppl but please just read!

P.s. i 1 problem getting my phone jailbroken on the 2.1 firmware..had the 1600 error. I was on 2.1 firmware unlocked but not jailbroken. so i quick pwn for 2.0.2 and then after that procedure added the custom firmware into itunes. It worked.

I've tried several of your FAQ walk throughs with no luck.
I dont remember the last code, but just now I have "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1600)" This was using the DFU mode, shift restore. I even tried the QuickPwn method,but I never see a dos window. does QuickPwn RC3 not show the dos window? I extracted that and ran QuickPwn.exe same thing, never see a dos box. I cant get the timing down to make the white screen stick. Now what?

ok, so now that I'm not pwned any more, what next? Did I only get once chance for this to work or something?

[WillyDavidK]

No he means it has to have been pwned in the past once before, which I believe you said yours was. Try using an older version of winpwn. The version doesn't really matter as your just using the program to get your phone to the 'white' dfu mode. Also I would suggest restoring to stock 2.1 before making another attempt.

This looks promising, I'm going to following it step by step
