Try switching USB ports and if that doesn't work: Uninstall and reinstall iTunes.

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes?

hello guys i just found this, its great for windows users since there is no quickpwn for FW 3.0 yet.

here is a guide (YouTube)


link for the custom FW site:
CUSTOM FIRMWARE for Jailbreak PASS: iphonearena@youtube

i would recommend you guys wait until i see if it is working fine...

PwnageTool quits when starts to build de custom .ipsw. I'm o a mac G5 OS 10.5.7 an itunes 8.2. Does anyone else has the same issue?

[hieuky]

hiiiii.

for some reasons, i can't make my own custom ipsw. pwnagetool keeps "quitting unexpectedly" ...i have a first gen iphone and a mac intel. tried to adjust the root partition size and it was of no help. i even redownload pwnagetool and the original ipsw, and it still doesn't work.

what's the solution to this, aye?

[Heyro]

I've jailbroken my iPhone many times but this is the first time I'm having a problem. I followed the guide exactly but my phone won't activate. Any ideas?

I am a bit confuse with the link provided. The description says:

Well don’t worry for Windows users we have got Custom ipsw of Firmware 3.0 which you can restore on iPhone 3G, 2G & iPod touch first Gen to Jailbreak and Unlock without going through long steps of jailbreaking.

However, uder 3G, 3.0, it says you will need to wait for ultrasnow to unlock.

Which is true?

All right, once again. sorry to bother everyone.

So I was pretty excited when the Pwnage Tool came out today.
I restored my iphone with the itunes update to the 3.0 OS and then tried to DFU mode the iphone to use my custom firmware etc.

However, when I put the iphone on DFU mode, itunes always gives the "an ipod has been detected..." error message.

" An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again. An unknown error occurred (1601)."

It did a 1604 before as well...

So I really don't know what I'm doing wrong. I know I'm in DFU mode, I've switched USB ports..etc.
NB: at the moment: itunes 8.2, macbook pro OS 10.5.6 (would an OS update help?)

I know the iphone connects...since I could restore to the official 3.0 OS - no problems there. So I am confused as to why itunes won't recognise it in DFU mode. what's wrong?

any contributions would be much much appreciated.
