Strange how some people have a problem with this. I updated my OS from 10.5.5 to 10.5.6 using the combo updater. I've got the latest iTunes & Pwnagetool.
I successfully went into DFU mode, using Pwnagetool, and used iTunes to do the custom restore. I did this on a 1st gen & 3G iPhone.
Maybe the difference here is the COMBO update to 10.5.6. As a rule, I always do the combo update, as there always seems to be problems with incremental updates, especially done via Software Updater. Maybe those with DFU problems just needs to download the COMBO 10.5.6 updater, apply that and try DFU again.

Not strange if you read the thread, more specifically post 28

I have a macbook pro and i pwnd a new unopened iphone in dfu mode with NO HUB!!!

I tried to do all on this post, but I always got the (21) error on Itunes.
But, WHY THE PROBLEM is in the CUSTOM FW 2.2, is because When I put the Original FW 2.1 or 2.2 in my Iphone 1st G. Itunes works great.
When I try to use the Custom FW 2.2 I get different error.


Hope that Someone find the error on this problem with MAC OS 10.5.6 or Custom 2.2 FW or Itunes 8 ... Anyway, the error is driving us crazy.

Alex,

I have an iMac Aluminum 24" with 10.5.6 and the latest iTunes. I followed the iClarified instructions and it worked no problem. Word of caution read the posts below the instructions becuase some where having issues and impatience. Mine worked just fine.

hey i am using new mac 10.5.5 i wanna jailbreak ipod touch 2.2 i used a unpowered usb hub but no luck .how to go about it.

I have iPhone3G with Pwnage 2.2 Jailbroken. But the Modem Firmware version was not 2.28.0 as required by YellowSnow. So I restored the iPhone3G using iTunes which downloaded the fresh copy of iPhone3G 2.2 (5G77). Phone restored and everything works. Then I tried to put phone into DFU mode and confirmed that a USB hub is needed. (Thanks for the tip.) Once in DFU mode, I option clicked the restore and navigated iTunes to the exact same restore image that had previously been used successfully to Jailbreak iPhone3G-2.2 (iPhone1,2_2.2_5G77_Custom_Restore.ipsw) and this time, iTunes choked with an error message and fortunately, after rebooting the iPhone3G, at least the un-Jailbroken version of Apple iPhone3G 2.2 works.

Just a datapoint for you developers. 10.5.6 breaks more than USB DFU mode.

Alright.. I have jailbroken and unlockd all the phones. I have followed all guides that have been on Mymi.. Here is the deal, this is the strangest mod that I have worked. I have tried the DFU update/change due to the 10.5.6.. Nothing.

I am using a MB with 10.5.6/used the automator down grade to try DFU mode. No success.
iphone 3g baby! 2.2 - Never PWNed...
itunes 8.0.2
Pwnage 2.2

The only thing that I have not done is use the USB hub trick. Whats the deal peeps?
We need an updated guide..

What happens when you try to put the phone in DFU mode with Pwnagetool? Dose it say it failed and what color is the screen...if it is black then you will be able to install the custom ipsw you built. It has worked for me 4 out of 5 times.

[thegreatpuma]

I have used the tool (the best btw) and it still will give me a black screen with a error when in itunes.

pwnge - dfu mod with the tool
itunes helper disabled
go to install cust firmware - error in itunes.

[Zwayne]

After you run the automator did the mac restart?

[thegreatpuma]

USB - auotmator?... Hmmm... No it didnt..
Gave me the prombt, closed programs.. clicked ok. And then a folder appeared on the desktop. (Backup IOUSB Fam)

[Zwayne]

After the files have been installed the mac needs to be restarted.
