LOL like i was saying in the 1st 10.5.6 update post. Its really strange that Apple would do this to try to not use DFU. There would be much more effective ways. And with a simple USB hub as a easy bypass is kinda funny too. I dont know whats going on in Cupertino but if they truely wanted to lock it down they could. And even then where there's a lock, theres an unlock

What about for the Unibody Macs? Last I remember, I couldn't enter DFU mode through them

Wow yeah this actually worked I just upgraded and pwned my buddies iPhone and it worked and I upgraded last night... !!

My guess is that Apple isn't trying to break pwnage but there's just an incompatibility in the drivers. Or, since most "normal" iPhone owners don't ever need DFU, they may have just disabled it since it's not necessary. Like you said, there are far more effective ways to block Pwnage if Apple cared, but they don't - more jailbreaking = more iPhones sold.

I also had no issue getting into DFU mode after updating to 10.5.6

I am using:

MacBook Core 2 Duo 2.0ghz
iPhone (original)

My guess is, that Apple f****d up..... AGAIN

Because since the update, I can't share my USB HDD via my network. It worked before the update but now i can't reach my HDD via Network.

Some body else realized this?

It seems to me, that Apple is closing on Microsoft quite quickly, at least in making mistakes.... I'm quite disappointed that Apple is following the same politics as MS, every Accessoire of the iPhone has to be baught, at least the 2G had a docking station, now another 29€ for that....

iTunes actually puts your phone in DFU, but you have to be fast to catch it. Right as you select restore and it begins it says preparing your phone for restore, for just a split second you will see the phone flash white. Right as it flashes white, grab the phone off the dock. You'll be stuck in DFU and can then stick it back on the dock and continue.

Hmmm... thinking Indiana Jones swap trick when you say take it out of the dock quick...

For just in-case...attached is a zipped copy of the 10.5.5 kexts that was mentioned.

Myself still juggling whether to upgrade or wait, but some says the graphics performance improvement is awesome...

[lopches]

Is it safe to go ahead with 10.5.6 if my phone has been jailbroken once but is not now for some time?

[Poseidon79]

DFU works for phones that are already pwned or quickpwned for some reason. This only applies to phones in a a factory OTB state.

[alexevo]

Let me guess....Apple recently announced that they now sell powered USB hubs in the online and brick & mortar stores... what a bunch of crooks

[sziklassy]

So Apple is now giving their lyoal customers incentive to run Windows systems? Clever!
