The problem I'm having on OSX is I keep getting a stupid Error 1600 in iTunes 8 when I try to restore. I have also tried Pwnage 2.0.3 on a different computer also and get the same error. Can someone please help me out? I'm trying to update to firmware 2.0.1

Wish I didn't try to update the software. My iPhone working fine before.

download the firmware somewhere of the Internet (torrentcoughcough) and in iTunes hit shift click, then select that firmware and it should update to it.

ok but if im using a custom fw do i still need to update to 2.0 through itunes first and then restore again using my custom fw?

Yes. You have to update to legit 2.0 firmware, then reinstall with 2.0 CFW. You just dont have to re "pwn" it. So you don't have to use iPwner. Just udate to 2.0 legitly. Then use Pwnage/Quickpwn to install custom firmware 2.1.
PS, if you're making the jump to 2.x, from 1.1.x, I recommend going straight to 2.1. It's better and it's no more hassle to jailbreak.

sorry i know my questions are pretty repetitive but im just getting really frustrated and stressed... ive tried doing a clean restore to 2.0 then trying to restore using a CFW of 2.0 and still no luck... i also tried quickpwning, after i did a legitimate restore to 2.0, and still no luck. the quickpwn gui kept crashing and im currently using "QuickPwn Gui 120" not really sure what version it is but thats what it says as the name of the .exe file

[bteamer]

sounds like a problem with the quickpwn itself. Try redownloading it from blog.iPhone-dev.org

help i bought my itouch jailbroken then stupidly upgraded on itunes to 1.1,5....i now need the installer back?? so i guess i need to jailbreak it?? never done it but i dont see any help for 1.15 only earlier or 2.0???

[bteamer]

download the 1.1.5 firmware off of the the internet. run your version of quickpwn( mac or pc) then just in it with the instructions according to 1.1.4. it's basically the exact same.

Hi, im trying to jailbreak my itouch 2.1, i get to the screen where i have to search the ipsw file. I browse it but the check mark doesn't appear on the itouch pic. i have did the same steps on about 5 iphone n it works, it just doesn't work the itouch. Some1 help, thanks.

I have a 1st gen ipod touch sw 1.1.4 jailbroken with ziphone3.0. how do I updgrade to a new sw 2.2 version without bricking my ipod? Then I want to mod it again, Thanks.

[bteamer]

GuySparkz, first of all, there is no 2.2 firmware version yet. And just plug your ipod into the computer, update to 2.1, then rejailbreak. I definitely recommend Quickpwn over ziphone. Ziphone has known to screw devices over. And there is really no difference in the two tools.

anis0315, If it cant find it, manually search for it and select it. If that still doesn't work, then you probably have a problem with your .ipsw. Redownload a different file off of the internet.

hello all and happy holidays!!!!!
I just bought my son a new ipod with 2.1.1 firmware and I want to jailbreak it like my iphone ( I promised I would ) and I found a restore 2.1.1 firmware so my question is should I use pwn or just shift restore??

Thanks for the help.

[bteamer]

Well if its a second gen ipod touch (with the external speakers and volume buttons on the side), then you cant jailbreak it yet. The dev team's working on it. But if it is first gen, you have to pwn it once before you can put custom firmware on it. So download the right quickpwn for your firmware, then pwn it with that, then use quickpwn to make the custom .ipsw. But the answer to your question simply, no you cannot shift restore with a custom .ipsw unless you pwn it first.
