    Default Problem after pwning :( - Please HELP!

    I just jailbreaked my phone with Winpwn, everything has been going great until I wanted to buy some apps in App store, on the phone.

    When I click download, it is constantly asking my to enter my username and password, pre-jailbrake it just asked me to verify my password. This isn't my main problem, but if someone can tell me how I can rectify this, that would be great.

    So after I enter my username and password, it prepares to download the app then I get an error: "Your account is only valid for purchases in the Australian iTunes store."



    What I have already tried:

    1.) I've gone to Settings > General > International > Region Format and Australia is still selected

    2.) I've logged into my iTunes account and the "My store" is still set to Australia



    Note: When I tried to purchase and app in iTunes, it wouldn't let me the first time. When I re-selected Australia it would let me download the app to my phone in the iTunes store, but it still won't let me via my phone. And yes, I have Synced it many times since.

    3.) I have re-started it.

    4.) I've deleted the History, Cookies and Cache from Safari

    5.) I have created another iTunes account and I still get the same error


    My information

    My phone is a Black 16GB 3G
    Firmware: 2.0.2
    Winpwn version: WinPwn 2.5-Beta 2

    My OS: Windows Vista Ultimate x64


    ANY help will be *greatly* appreciated. I will be eternally grateful if you cam help me fix this.

    I had this issue here in the U.S. when it kept directing me to a European store. The only way that I got it working was by doing this:

    In iTunes I clicked on "iTunes Store"
    Then I clicked on my email account in the top right hand corner.
    I changed the country to USA.
    Resynced and abracadabra it let me download from my phone.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank-you very much for your reply. I gave that a crack but that also was still set to Australia.

    I finally did get it working, so here is the solution for future people:

    I unchecked the checkbox to sync the apps a couple of days back because I only wanted to sync the music at that time. I completely forgot that it wasn't checked, so whenever I was syncing it wasn't touching the apps.

    When I did check that box and did a sync, it actually deleted all my apps. I'm not too concerned about that because they were just free ones and I only had about 12. However, it completely fixed the problem.

    The phone is remembering the username again and just asking me to verify the password, just like before. And also, I can freely download apps again.

    Have a good one.
