Damn. Finally decided to jailbreak tonight, and they release an update. If I click restore in iTunes (in preparation for using QuickPwn), will it automatically upgrade me or can I stick with 2.2.0?

@dhruvmalik - I've posted the links you gave on the Dev team blog as someone was asking. Hope you don't mind - I did credit you.

[Edit]Looks like they are bloking links there now - so i've just pointed them in the direction of modmyi ![/Edit]

good timing! my phone has been running like total garbage lately and i've been thinking about restoring. as soon as they pwn this, i'll be taking the plunge!

**dhruvmalik** · 01-27-2009, 01:27 PM

Common Confucious, it's free info for all. I didn't do anything spectacular by posting the info. Thanks or the credit, that makes it 2

. Thanks for passing along the info as well. I hope most of the third party apps don't have compatibility issues.

Have just edited my post above - they're not allowing links there so I've pointed them here.

Not even updated on Apple's website: Apple - iPhone - Software Update

Must not be that big of an update

**confucious** · 01-27-2009, 01:35 PM

It is only a 0.01 update so no biggy - only bug fixes so probably not something Apple want to shout about!

**dhruvmalik** · 01-27-2009, 01:36 PM

Just put a new battery in the iPhone, was thinking of restoring. Saved the double work. I'm DLing the update via edge on the phone since inet here is down.

. Only 2 hours remaining.

Well my phone got messed up, i think when i took it out in the middle of a sync, so i have to restore anyways. boo.

**dhruvmalik** · 01-27-2009, 01:40 PM

Charles, I'd you click restore, it will look for the firmware on the system, then go ahead and download from the server if it's not found. Shift click and pressing restore will allow you to search for the ipsw file of your choosing.

Is the 2G iphone baseband modified by this update?

**wgm214** · 01-27-2009, 02:02 PM

i dont think the 2gs baseband is modified, it hasnt since the 3gs been released

**sammie812** · 01-27-2009, 02:16 PM

help please new to this. I just upgraded to 2.2.1 and lost Cydia/installer but i am still unlocked. It solved my echo problem by upgrading but how do i get Cydia back?

**JAG2621** · 01-27-2009, 02:19 PM

I think one reason they made this update is that some people will upgrade and change there baseband and will not have an unlocked 3G for a while and Anyone with a jailbroken iPhone should not upgrade till the dev team works on jailbreaking the new firmware. I do not see any advantage to the new firmware. I am staying on 2.2.

2.2.1 has not been jailbroken yet so you can't get Cydia until a new version of Quickpwn comes out. Stay tuned.

**cprail** · 01-27-2009, 03:10 PM

I confirm, 2g baseband stays the same (as suspected).

**kadinh** · 01-27-2009, 03:38 PM

I'm still on 2.1 bc I don't want to lose all of my hard earned apps (and the fact that my computer is jacked).

**soulthoughts** · 01-27-2009, 03:51 PM

What's the over/under on 'Help! I accidentally upgraded!' posts?

**ZIGE** · 01-27-2009, 04:16 PM

NO COPY PASTE YET?!!!!
