I used WinPwn 2.5 beta, it jailbroke the iphone I guess and put on Cydia but not Installer. So I tried to use QuickPwnGui120 to get Installer on the iphone but now Quickpwn crashes after initial start up. How can I go about getting Installer on the iphone. Im on 2.0.2

one way is.... rebuild the custom fw again using winpwn2.5..make sure you add installer in the package this time. Then restore again using this custom fw.

could you point the way to how to do this? Thanks

Run the program in expert mode...

Just follow instructions...

ok I did the expert and it looks like it created a custom ipsw file but now how do I go about installing that instead of it creating a new one?

correct....now that you have the custom firmware made...put that on the desktop or anywhere that you would know where to grab it later.

now..plug the phone to iTunes...hold both the power button and home button down til the screen disappears....then let go of the power button...continue to hold the home button til itunes recognizes it....then hold shift on the keyboard and click RESTORE....and go choose the custom firmware that you just had built and let it runs...DONE.

damn it, "the Iphone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (6)"


Now its stuck on the ubs cord to itunes logo

and now it wont even let me restore at all even basic restore through itunes

[SundayDuffer]

error 6 meaning you didnt properly put your phone in DFU mode. Try it again.

Ok that worked but now I have to restore the back up contacts and music. I hope this works and keeps the changes. Thanks for the help

If you can help it its best when restoring from a jailbroken phone to start new, saves problems in my experience. If they are on your computer, then just sync them back.
