i'd suggest doing that. i just got a custom ipsw but i might not even use it now cause i can just make my own and a few days is fine with me

Thank you - explanations and instructions perfect and my 1G 1.1.4 now all working on 2.0 firmware. I'm a newbie so this is exciting. Well done all concerned!!

Are you sure I can't just bootneuter my ( Ziphone unlocked ) 1.1.4 Iphone, then use Itunes 7.7 to install the 2.0 custom firmware?

Do I really have to restore it back down to 1.1.4, and then use winpwn first?

You don't have to restore it back down.

Look at the thread on ziphone subforum for more detail.

Essentially, you can just put your ziphone into DFU or Recovery mode, shift-click and install the custom 2.0 firmware. It makes a difference where you got your custom firmware. 2 that I downloaded would not work.

thanks hamproof, reading those threads now and will give it a shot tonight. I have just downloaded 3 different 2.0 firmwares ( good speed at work ! ) so fingers crossed...

thanks again.

Dang. I spent so many hours yesterday trying to get 2.0 to work with windows, and at 2am I finally did. I should have just waited for WINPWN 2.0 cause now I don't have installer and mail app crashes.

Any ideas on this? I started at 1.1.3, upgraded to 1.1.4, pwned, installed custom 1.1.4 ipsw, then installed 2.0 custom ipsw. Everything works great (even tzones hack) except the mail app. when I sync with itunes, it gets to the mail sync and the iphone stops the syncing. when I try to open mail on the phone, it comes up blank for a second and then closes.

Instead of restoring and backing up from a back up you need to restore and set up as a new phone.

damn that sucks. Can I restore with the same custom ispw now that I've already ran it? I had the one from CosmoLV. basically I'm wondering if I can just shift+Restore with the iPWN custom firmware now that I already did that and I'm unlocked and jailbroken.

thanks man this worked great for me, i tried following another guide and i didnt get it to work, but then i tried this and worked great for me. Im running tmobile with the t-zones 5.99 hack and it still works for me thank goodness.

Hamproof/anyone - one more question, does this mean i end up with a 2.0 firmware phone that is network unlocked? i.e it will work off the bat with any carrier?

I'm on vodafone in the uk..

Sorry for the newbie questions....!

[Jay316]

I like the guide but I'd rather wait until WinPwn 2.0 or iLiberty+ gets updated to automate the process.

Ok, so I couldn't wait, although I didn't Pwn my phone. I was running 1.1.4 and just did a restore through iTunes using the hacked firmware. Then bootneuter automatically opened and did its thing, I'm now running 2.0 Self Pwn'd using XP.

It should. We started with an unlocked/jailbreak/activated phone with ziphone at 1.1.4 and using the steps outlined, I didn't have to do anything extra to unlock/jb/activate.

Baloney .. you don't have to set it up as a new phone. You can restore from backup and then do the following (in your case, you don't have to restore just to get the mail.app to work):

1. ssh to iPhone
2. chown -R mobile:mobile /private/var/mobile

Your mail app will work again. I've restored twice (once when I was on 1.1.4 and now with 2.0), both times I did the above to fix the Mail.app from opening and closing.

But depending on your ipsw, you might have only Cydia. You then need to download the openSSH package in order to use ssh.

Thanks, I'm going to try this. I do only have Cydia unfortunately. does anyone know if it is it too late to get installer now?

And just out of curiosity, anyone have an answer to my original question? I'm wanting to know if I can restore with the same ipsw or a different unlocked one after doing it once.
