Why when I download the 2.0 firmware from Hack That Iphone I get a folder?
My problem is that when I download the 2.0 firmware file it turns into a folder instead of the .ipsw file that should be in the Itunes Software Update. Any Ides? thanks again.
The site I got the 2.0 firmware file is called: Hack that Phone - Step 1: Unlocking 1st generation iPhones
When the download is complete it turns into:
iPhone1,1_2
Any ideas of what is my problem?

Your OS is just not adding the .ipsw I would assume... Just add it manually

I once prayed to God for an iPhone, but quickly found out He didn't work that way...so I stole an iPhone and prayed for His forgiveness.

Sounds like you are using safari to download it - from my understanding, safari extracts it automatically for you on download and that's bad. Download the file with firefox and you should be fine.

Just look in the trash bin. After extracting the .ipsw into a folder, safari puts the original file in the trash. Just get the .ipsw out and trash the folder.
