Cydia = pwnage.

Funny you should mention Cydia: It wrecked my phone. No Signal whatsoever after installing it.

Dude probably because you are using geohot method to unlock your phone previously. As far as I know the new baseband will "recognized" an modified secpack and when iPlus update ur baseband it will no longer work due to the secpack already modified

Just my 2 cents....

as for the bootloader - it seems that there is no real reason to update it yet either way. If it needed to be updated, apple would have put out a patch to upgrade it with one of their other firmwares. So, knowing that the developers can actually patch the BL, (into oblivion sometimes) means that if apple needs to upgrade 3.9 bootloaders to 4.6 or maybe 5.0 (who knows maybe?) for functionality reasons then they can do it to everybody's phone. I just don't think anyone has figured out how to unlock it after it gets bad data written to it, but where there is a will there is a way

The main advantage to iPlus is that if you ever need to return your phone, you can revirginize it to the the expected BL. With ziphone, if you had a 4.6 BL and it has been downgraded to 3.9 BL, the you're out of luck. No Apple warranty... So say for example, there is a battery problem with iPhone that Apple recalls it, there is no guarentee that you will be covered with your ziphone hacked iPhone. This was clearly stated in the ziphone discussion when it came out. With iPlus, this will never be a worry.

yes i completly agree here with domenicp because why would want to permantly downgrade your BL when you have a reversible option. I mean you don't want to be that person lets say 7 months from now, "I used ZiPhone to downgrade my BL, I should have used iPlus..." lol.

did you ever do the restore to 1.1.4? you have to do that first. put your phone in recovery mode, "restore and upgrade" to 1.1.4 then once your there do the iplus -j

Sh**. Can anyone confirm that this is true? I used an unlock based on geohot's to unlock my 1.1.3 OTB phone. I used this guide:
http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/show...light=upgrader
- uses the i.unlock.no unlocker/upgrader.


You're saying even if I restore to 1.1.4 and run iPlus it won't work? I was looking forward to finally and safely being able to downgrade my bootloader.

There must be like 10 million other people in this situation.

What is the point of activating for AT&T customers? Whenever I used ZiPhone, I would just jailbreak the phone. If I performed the activation, it would mess up YouTube and a bunch of other things. If your an AT&T customer, it should already be activated, and not need to be activated, correct?

Also...I noticed there was a lot of confusion in the thread, so maybe someone needs to come along and organize the "reliable" information we have at hand to make it easier for the new people who may come along to jailbreak their phone.

And is their a way around the activation portion, because I am probably pretty sure if users only jailbreak and do not perform the activation option (if possible with iPlus and their AT&T subscribers) they will not run into the issue with the Youtube not being able to connect.

I only know this from one of the readme file on Ziphone 2.2 ( If I am not mistaken). I am currently still stuck on 1.1.2 OTB, 4.6 BL unlocked with Geohot method, dont know what to do next... , I am not using Ziphone or iPlus due to this constraint.

Seems the unlocking method that was released by Geohot for 1.1.2/1.1.3 is different with AnySIm unlocking.

Any one can confirm whether it is safe to downgrade BL 4.6 to 3.9 BL despite already used Geohot method?

sh!t , so what should i do know ? Download the 1.1.1 firmwave and geohot unlock again ? Cus what i did with my OTB 1.1.2 4.6BL is that i used geohot method to unlock it( -> 1.1.1 , jailbreak, unlock, upgrade to 1.1.2) ,, works perfectly until i upgraded from itun into 1.1.4 and use iPLus to unlock it, my iphone is now WORKS AS AN ITOUCH, NOT AN IPHONE ANYMORE, CAN SOME EXPERT HELP ME

[frankydabull]

Ok, let me put this out there. I have done about 150 phones, back from the 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 oktoprep days up until me doing one yesterday. As someone who has seen all types of bad situations with iphones, I personally have been using iPlus because it is the truth, and is RELIABLE

A lot of people are saying how ZiPhone works flawlessly, and there isnt a need for iPlus. Well, iPlus is stable! Yes, I understand a lot of people out there are unlocking their own personal phones, and they want it to be a one time thing. But I have seen ZiPhone really screw up a phone. Every time I used to run it I would cross my fingers. iPlus is a savior becuase it has proved to be VERY stable, and I dont have "Call Failed" messages every 10 minutes either. iPlus gets my thumbs up

[iraethan]

i followed the modmyi iplus 2.0 guide and everything worked perfectly. i am on tmobile and was using a turbosim 1.1.2. i was able to take the turbosim off after the upgrade and everything is working well. the tmobile tzones 1.1.3 hack from the installer loaded perfectly as did summerboard. i run itunes 7.4, syncing like a charm. iplus 2.0 is definitely an amazing tool. google locator and youtube work with with a wifi connection, but are not using EDGE. hopefully i can sort that out.
