Do I have to download the 2.2.0 (3G): iPhone1,2_2.2_5G77_Restore.ipsw file??

Is that file also needed just to jailbreak? When and how in the process if needed is it run? TY

I havent activated it yet but trying to use>
2.2.0 (3G): iPhone1,2_2.2_5G77_Restore.ipsw and Pwnage -225-2

How do I get this phone to update 2.2 so I can jailbreak it with these tools?

TY

You have to update in Itunes.

Then, jailbreak with Quickpwn or Pwnage.

And Pwnage only creates a custom FW, which you then have to install with Itunes.

will it not be the 2.2.1 update?

**cpjr** · 02-21-2009, 07:40 PM

If you have a copy of 2.2, then you can hit "Shift-Restore" and it will allow you to choose the 2.2 firmware file.

**djjessejames** · 02-21-2009, 08:38 PM

but my new iPhone is 2.1 and my old was updated s/w 2.2.1 (stupid) I need to know how to find a 2.2 restore so I can jailbreak. Where do I find my restores? Hold shift and click restore but I dont know where to find them?

I dont know the file names or what i am looking for, please help.

If you wanna go to 2.2,follow the link&download iPhone1,2_2.2_5G77_Restore.ipsw to your desktop.Also download quickpwn 22-1(not 225-2).You can find it on this site or on iClarified site.
On itunes hold down shift,choose your iPhone1,2_2.2_5G77_Restore.ipsw which is placed on desktop&restore.Then use quickpwn....
