1-Sync/Backup your iPhone

3-Download Quickpwn and Apple firmware
3-Run Quickpwn and create a custom firmware
4-Shift-Restore to the custom firmware

Can someone verify that this would be OK? The dev-team wrote that you should update before running Quickpwn??? I may be confused.

I think you need to upgrade to iTunes 2.2 first, then rejailbreak with quickpwn. I also ran apt back up so I did all this and it's taking awhile (LOL-I should have done iTunes and un jailbroke yesterday!)
1. Back Up Phone in iTunes and with Apt Back up
2. Install iTunes 8.02
3. Restore to iTunes 2.2 (not update)
4. Re jailbreak phone
5. Go to Cydia and restore Apt Back up
6. Install Boss Prefs or SBS, Open SSH and 5 icon dock if you had it
7. Restore back up from iTunes
8. Reload any music/photos/movies etc... not part of restore, reset all Cydia themes and apps

Right?!?! Cuz if not warn me quick, I am on step 4 right now.

Any updates? I'm having the same problem.

I dont get how you can say that when (someone correct me if Im wrong)
Updating the baseband gives you better Service on many different levels.
less dropped calls, faster dl/up load speeds, better reception, etc...

So YES upgrading the baseband does affect the update cause when updated -Google Maps performs better because its downloading the maps faster.
The Podcasts download/Stream faster
Safari downloads webpages faster

and so on and so on...

So Im kinda confused on how you can say upgrading the baseband has no effect on the new features or any of the features for that matter??

absolutely no luck ... and VERY aggrivating. I re-downloaded the Pwnage Toolkit. I re-downloaded the iPhone 2.2 firmware. I restored my phone to factory settings, without backing it up to my old settings.
All to no avail. All I get is "sry, I haz fail!"
What gives? Am I missing something?

HELP!!!!!!

I am running 2.0.X

What steps do I have to go through to get to 2.2 on my unlocked 2G? I didn't like 2.1, to many problems and so stuck with 2.0.X

Yes, but that's the point of step 4 and you can't do step 4 without first doing step 3. You have to be relocked/unjailbroken on iTunes 2.2 then run the dev's team new jb's for 2.2.

But, another question: I am on 2G phone and I had unlocked it with pwnage 2.1 but never ran bootneuter. I only installed Cydia with 2.2. Is it true I am still unlocked and only need to install bootneuter from Cydia if I ever want to complete the unlock or do I have to reinstall the unlock from 2.2? Please advise and thanks!

Can anyone confirm that they have good bars on T-Mobile on 2.2?
I don't trust this baseband changing stuff
