[Palomita1]

I just got my 2G 8GB iPhone that was on Tmobile replaced today at the Apple Store and they have me a new 2G 8GB iIPhone with 2.2 firmware.

1/ How do I activate it (I do not have an AT&T contract)?
2/ Which process do I use to unlock?
3/ Which process do I use to jailbreak?

I am a bit of a novice as my friend (who is now out of the country) did it all for me before. I have spent hours reading the forums today; tried the Liberty+ but shut it down after 30 min and it was still on the 1st step and I restored to factory defaults that forced me to 2.2.

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I can_not get PwnageTool to compile my custom .ipsw
I keep getting "I haz fail"
Tell me what I'm doing wrong:
Laptop running 10.5 Leopard, installed the newest pwnagetool for 2.2
I open it (I have it in my applications folder) and select the 5G77 firmware I downloaded, I do everything according to the guide (This is definitely not my first time doing this) and it goes through all the normal stages and then chokes.
Pleas help, I want 2.2 goodness!

Apple's case seems to be quite sad when I have the hacks downloaded and installed 15 minutes BEFORE the product they were intended for...

5/5 on the release time. <3

For those with t-mobile and 2nd Gen iphone with a mac or Hackintosh using leopard 10.5.3 this may help you.

What's Needed:
First be sure you have quickpwn 2.2 for MAC
Second make sure you have f/w 2.2 I used this one
LINK

What to do:
I used iTunes 8 ran the shift/restore method and chose the firmware.
when it finished I opened QuickPwn ran that and Done!

Very simple process.

My iPhone:
Unlocked --> T-Mobile, Jailbroke with 2.2 firmware - running great

can you post your custom firmware please? i dont have a mac to made one with pwnage

[Carrbone]

just increase the partition size to 1000 thats why ur getting the partition size error.

Except now you can't unlock, which is what were waiting for.

cycorder works and i have all my videos that i recorded thought it was gone after the updates but it seems that the update keeps the folders intack with everything in it, much easyer now.. updated then jailbroke with quickpwn window vista 64 bit... goodluck to everyone...

[capttanhowdy]

Ok ya'll are probably gonna tell me to take a hike but I have 1.1.4 on a 1gen iphone and I am on a mac... my phone is jailbroken thru ziphone and I am a tmobile customer... Can I use pwned to get to 2.1?
