QuickPwn 1.1 Hanging at Apple Screen

[bigdog5142]

Is there any reason that QuickPwn would go through all of the steps, say that it succeeded in Pwning, iPhone goes through all of the screens to jailbreak and then hang at the Apple load screen? What's going on?

I upgraded to the latest firmware last night and it actually worked once. Then I attempted to install Kate this morning and the phone crashed altogether and hung at the Apple screen. I then restored the phone to the latest firmware and have been unable to jailbreak ever since.

This has to be the most frustrating process I've ever done!!!

Here's the log of my latest jailbreak...same results. (BTW, it will vibrate twice about ever 5-6 minutes or so...like it's trying to boot up, but can't.)

I was having this problem too. I forget what post, but on this site I read that if you do a clean restore through itunes first, let it activate, but do not sync at all. Then run the Quickpwn. It should work and start up and make it to the home screen. After this is done you can sync for the first time. I dont know why this is so but it work for me. Hope this helps

Got it running. Connected the iPhone in the Apple screen state to QuickPwn. As soon as it recognized the iPhone, it booted correctly. Weird, but it's up and running!

As a sidebar...DON'T USE KATE until it's more stable on 2.x firmware!
