hey guys not really a noob have a 2g first gen iphone and ive read all through these forums and cant find the question or answer in any of the posts so here goes i have windows sp3 have all required firmware 2.01 official restored in itunes start pwning with winpwn and once i get to the part of going into dfu mode its seems to go into dfu but winpwn always gives me that error of faulty ports or tells me im stupid and didnt follow instructions correctly and then quickpwn i go thru all the steps correctly and always gets stuck in recovery mode??? Wait for your iphone to connect in recovery mode... ooook its in recovery mode but quickpwn doesnt proceed to the next step where it says hold home for 5 secs...

I am having a similar problem mate, quickpwn encounters an error once i get to the step of it putting the phone into dfu. But i decided to do it slowly and ensure i went through all the steps correctly and quickpwn failed before i even got to this step. Not sure if its an issue with quickpwn or my laptop just being rubbish!!

Any help would be appreciated!
