How to: Newbie’s Guide to WinPwn 2.0(.1) Jailbreak
Author: Andrew Robinowitz | Posted under: How-TosTags: how-tos, jailbreak, pwnagetool 2.0, winpwn 2.0
UPDATE (8/09)
New WinPwn now available (2.0.0.4). Will successfully ‘pwn’ iPhone firmware 2.0.1. Firmware links in Step #2 now download iPhone 2.0.1 version.
UPDATE (7/25 12:45 PM)
New WinPwn now available (2.0.0.3)
From the WinPwn page:
“2.0.0.3 fixes the Ipwner crash problem and 16xx errors. It will also fix the iPod ipswBuilder failure bug.”
UPDATE (7/24 1:25 AM)
Step 12 has changed. Make sure to UNCHECK the “Activate Phone” option (it is selected by default) if you have a carrier-specific iPhone that has already been activated. After you restore with the custom IPSW, your iPhone (connected to your PC with iTunes open) will automatically Activate correctly. Otherwise, you will have no carrier information and no signal (** see screenshots at bottom of post).
Thanks to everyone in the comments for their help in resolving this!

Here’s our step-by-step comprehensive guide to jailbreaking your iPhone using Windows, with WinPwn 2.0 (Mac users check our How to: Newbie’s Guide to iPhone 3G Jailbreak, which is a Mac only jailbreaking tool).
This wasn’t quite as easy and intuitive as the PwnageTool 2.0 jailbreak for Mac, so make sure to closely follow the outlined tutorial and proceed with caution and at your own risk!
For reference, we used a 1st generation iPhone, WinPwn v2.0.0.2 (use v2.0.0.3 or latest available), and went for just the jailbreak (not unlock). Make sure you have iTunes 7.7 installed and have your iPhone plugged into your PC.
First off, some starting notes from the WinPwn site:
–
1. Download WinPwn (latest version) - Currently WinPwn 2.0.0.2 2.0.0.3, 2.0.0.4 (for Apple’s 2.0.1 Firmware) but check WinPwn Site for updates.
2. Download .ipsw for your iPhone, save to desktop:
- for 1st generation download (UPDATED: 2.0.1 firmware link) HERE
- for 3G download (UPDATED: 2.0.1 firmware link) HERE
3. Run WinPwn .exe and install.
4. Close readme which automatically opens.
5. Finish install.
6. Open WinPwn.
7. Click ‘Browse .ipsw’ and select .ipsw file downloaded in step 2.
8. Click ‘IPSW Builder’.
9. 1st tab, Applications:
- Cydia - you probably want this if you’re jailbreaking, since you’ll need it to install apps, so check it.
- YouTube Activation Fix - from the WinPwn Site: “If you already have service with AT&T do not activate or install Youtube Fix,” so I left this unchecked.
10. 2nd tab, Custom Images:
Here you can set custom images for your Boot/Loading (default: Apple) and Restore (default: dock-connect) screens. You can browse your computer for images, and also the online catalog (unless the terminal displayed “Failed to Load Image Catalog” when WinPwn started up).
Not clicking anything will set you up with the default Apple/dock-connect screens, which is what we opted for…
11. 3rd tab, Custom Payload:
Most likely you should leave this blank (which we did). In summary, you can add other applications to your install process so you’ll have them on your iPhone right when the jailbreaking process is complete. For instance, if you checked Cydia install in the first tab, you’ve already created a custom payload that will have Cydia waiting on your Springboard upon jailbreak.
You can browse your computer for them (.tar files) or get them from the online catalog (unless the terminal displayed “Failed to Load Payload Catalog” when WinPwn started up).
12. 4th tab, Advanced:
For this section, just leave ‘Activate Phone’ checked (which is default).
Uncheck ‘Activate Phone’ and continue to next step if you have a carrier-specific iPhone that has already been activated — failure to do this will result in a loss of carrier information and no signal (** see screenshots at bottom of post). Your iPhone will automatically activate itself in iTunes upon completion of the restore.
Unless you are trying to unlock (which we’re not in this tutorial), you don’t need to worry about bootneuter, baseband updates, or bootloaders.
13. Click ‘Build .ipsw’ in the bottom left.
14. Click ‘OK’ once you receive the ‘Successfully Created IPSW File’ message.
15. Now click ‘Ipwner’ button in WinPwn and browse/select the custom IPSW you just created. Click ‘OK’ after receiving the ‘Your Itunes has been Pwned!’
NOTE: If you have tried the WinPwn process and received the 06, 1600, 1601, or 1602 error messages, you probably skipped this step (as we learned the hard way after an hour of frustration).
16. You’re ready to set iPhone into DFU Mode.
To do this, hold down the ‘power’ and ‘home’ buttons at the same time for ten seconds (turning your iPhone off), and then immediately release the ‘power’ button and continue to hold the ‘home’ button for another ten seconds. Your iTunes should recognize your device and your iPhone screen should be ALL BLACK. If you see the docking screen, you have hit the actual ‘Recovery Mode’ and need to repeat the process until you get the blank ALL BLACK iPhone screen.
17. iTunes should automatically load and now you must Shift-Restore (hold the ‘Shift’ key on your keyboard while clicking the ‘Restore’ button in iTunes) and select the custom IPSW you just created.
18. Wait for the restore to take place and complete, wait for iPhone to activate automatically, note Cydia & App Store on your Springboard, and rejoice… congratulations, you’re iPhone has now been pwned!
** Here you see a successful activation (by unchecking “Activate Phone” under the Advanced tab, step 12)…note the upper-left corner with carrier information & bars.
** Here you see an unsuccessful activation by leaving the “Activate Phone” option checked. Note the upper-left corner with 1 bar (alternates with ‘no service’) and lacking carrier information.
You might have to do a restore on your iPhone and use the firmware itunes downloads because I have tried that firmware with no luck and used the firmware itunes downloaded and it finally worked and I got no errors.

@Chris - thanks for the note, I am curious what error message you received and when it happened in the process?
Andrew Robinowitz on July 24th, 2008 at 10:36 pm
I’ve done it!! finally after several attempts before with winpwn2.0.1, and now with this version 2.0.2 and this tutorial I’m finally got it, thanks a lot!! good luck to everyone!!
Jose on July 24th, 2008 at 10:46 pm
@ Andrew - I kept getting an unkown error occured 1601. I kept uninstalling itunes, quicktime, apple device loader, and all apple software including winpwn. Nothing worked until I used the firmware itunes downloaded. Then it finally worked.
Chris on July 24th, 2008 at 11:02 pm
hihi,
after i press “iPwner”, some message in the winpwn windows comes out as below, is it normal?

Hi I have a version 2.0 iPod touch and I want to know how to jailbreak my iPod
Thanks
Anthony on July 24th, 2008 at 11:18 pm
@Chris Very interesting, though when we were receiving errors (1600 & 1602) we tried all of the troubleshooting you suggested (including setting in DFU mode, restoring straight from iTunes firmware, setting in DFU mode again, restoring with custom IPSW) to no avail. Then we realized we needed the Ipwner step…
Andrew Robinowitz on July 24th, 2008 at 11:18 pm
Will this work on the iPod touch as well? I don’t have an iphon e but I do have an ipod touch. Thanks and awesome job by the way.

I kept getting error 1600 and 1601 with winpwn 2.0.1
I am pretty sure I pwned my itunes but I will try this out tomorrow and see if it works
G on July 24th, 2008 at 11:32 pm
@Anthony & Jamie: you guys need to find the latest IPSW for your iPOD touch, should be “ipod1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw”
@Spanky: what exact part of the restore process is it hanging on? restore can take a while, but ours hung on the “Preparing iPhone for Restore” mode while the iPhone showed an all white screen and had to be restarted.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 24th, 2008 at 11:35 pm
First time success with 2.0.0.2 (the previous version 2.0.0.1 did not work).
Restore of contact etc after jailbreaking *does* take a long time — a quick websearch indicates this may be a known iTunes bug, just be patient it works.
anonymous coward on July 24th, 2008 at 11:38 pm
Thanks for the tutorial. My iPhone is finally jailbroken!
Keith on July 24th, 2008 at 11:42 pm
I pwned my iPhone 3g using winpwn 2.0.0.2. Everything works fine but I have no signal or reception on my iPhone. Please help
minh on July 24th, 2008 at 11:59 pm

mo on July 25th, 2008 at 12:01 am
I keep getting a 1604 error once i do the iphone restore using the then one made from winpwn in itunes. i have tried like 100 times nothing is working and my phone is stuck in dfu mode any help anyone please
s on July 25th, 2008 at 12:08 am
Due to error 6, I had to put my iPhone in DFU mode and restore it to Firmware 2.0 using iTune7.7.
Now with my iPhone in 2.0 firmware w/o unlock,jailbreak,etc…. can I use WinPwn as per the instruction above?
jinhoe on July 25th, 2008 at 12:09 am
Thank you guys you are number one!!! Now i just have to wait for the updates to unlock the 3G
Ruslan on July 25th, 2008 at 12:11 am
@minh: we’ve successfuly WinPwn’d two iPhones, one has regular signal strength while the other has 1 bar/no service. we are looking into it…
@s: if you’re in DFU mode you should be able to use a regular “Restore” and download 2.0 firmware directly through iTunes to get on a clean slate and start over.
@jinhoe: yes, you should be good to go if you’re looking to unlock your iPhone. if you receive error 6 during the WinPwn process, make sure your iPhone is in DFU mode and not Recovery mode.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 12:15 am
keep getting 06 error im hitting the ipwner button does this prog not work with vista?
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:21 am
i followed all the steps it all worked fine until i restore the custom and error 06
dfu worked good
ipwner says it is pwned
i dont understand
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:24 am
@me: are you sure you’re in DFU mode? what process are you doing to get into it and what appears on the screen? the process outlined above was on an XP machine, but Vista should work as well.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 12:26 am
yes im sure
the same process it says
blank screen till it opens itunes
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:30 am
@me: when you hit Ipwner button were you able to browse for the new IPSW you made and get the ‘Your Itunes has been Pwned!’ message?
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 12:31 am
yes sir
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:32 am
i downloaded firmware update from itunes, but i cant find were the firmware update is. and i dont know what folder to search.
bob on July 25th, 2008 at 12:32 am
im sure its a vista crap issue
i may have to go take ownership of all the programs
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:34 am
@me: okay, are you using a custom image or default?
@bob: you need to download the new-fresh-firmware from one of the links in step 2 above and save it somewhere you remember (i.e. desktop).
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 12:34 am
custom
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:35 am
me: try changing to default and try again — your image might be invalid.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 12:36 am
WARNING: earlier I said that the jailbreak worked fine. The phone *was* jailbroken but I had no signal strength. Restored phone to default firmware using iTunes and going into DFU mode.
anonymous coward on July 25th, 2008 at 12:36 am
well its the one that came with the prog
like up top
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:37 am
Just learned DON’T have Itunes open when you click Ipwner and it works great
Steve on July 25th, 2008 at 12:39 am
i think i see what you mean maybe i dont have the custom images that came with he prog
i will try default
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:39 am
i will try all again later today thanks for the help
i will update
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:41 am
im tried of this! it keeps giving me an error. someone said that if i downloaded from itunes,it will work fine. but i downloaded from i tunes. i tried to search the firmware, i cant find were it saved.i dont know what folder to look.
bob on July 25th, 2008 at 12:46 am
hi there, i’m in the process of pwning mine now, ran the program and now restoring with the custom file, it has taken about say 5 mins so far, I’m wondering if this is normal?? Kind of worried at the moment. Any help?
Steven on July 25th, 2008 at 12:49 am
bob you have vista?
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:49 am
steven: yes, this is normal and should take a while. restores take time. keep us updated…
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 12:50 am
No signal bars after ipwn. BUMMER. How many hours did this take and I have no ability to make calls??
This needs to be fixed ASAP. I would suggest NOT doing this until you get the ALL CLEAR sign.
Spanky on July 25th, 2008 at 12:51 am
just a quick question sorry if this sounds dumb will i still be able to connect to itunes and download apps, and sync etc??
John on July 25th, 2008 at 12:51 am
@ME yes i had vista!
Bob on July 25th, 2008 at 12:54 am
for vista you find the itunes downloaded firmware here
C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:55 am
hi andrew, it finished… restore was successful. it’s now syncing itunes to iphone 3g. I did notice quickly that the menu on iphone looked ok, i can see cydia, except I have noticed thus far no signal/my carrier being present. still worried
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 12:56 am
@me hehehehe! thanks. i found it. your a big help. now i want to try this if it will work.thanks
bob on July 25th, 2008 at 12:57 am
np
nite im off to bed for now
me on July 25th, 2008 at 12:58 am
guys i solve the problem with the out if signall issue. just create a new image but DONT SELECT THE ACTIVATION OPTION on the advance tab. when you install the new image just activate your phone on itunes. works for me at least
Francisco Garcia on July 25th, 2008 at 1:00 am
@me: thanks!
@steven: we are looking into it. i’m trying some variations off of settings right now, as one of our iPhones has limited/no service as well. a quick restore back to regular 2.0 DOES fix this though…
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 1:00 am
????
just create a new image but DONT SELECT THE ACTIVATION OPTION on the advance tab. when you install the new image just activate your phone on itunes. works for me at least
???
Could someone explain this in extreme, dumbed down, detail? I would like to have more than one bar of signal coverage. kthxbi
Spanky on July 25th, 2008 at 1:02 am
hello,
I’m in Japan using a 3G iphone on softbank. The iphones in japan all come witha little custom application that runs in the background and pops up a green box saying “you have new mail” (in both English and Japanese) when you receive a message. Its quite handy as it gives a “semi-push” notification without the need for an exchange or .me account. If I do this process I assume that this little program will be lost? (It must be in the firmware I guess because it is not visible in setting or apps or anywhere and it displays Japanese even though my phone is running in English)
Anyway If I try an pwn and then I find either a) I have no signal strength or b) that app is missing Can I easily just restore my phone back to the way it is now with a RESTORE from backup?
Barnaby on July 25th, 2008 at 1:02 am
just do what i did man took me 3 hour but finally is working. remember do the same steps on the guide but just activate the phone using itunes. uncheck the option on the winpwn
Francisco Garcia on July 25th, 2008 at 1:03 am
I tried the new WINPWN for mac and when it is all done I am left with an iphone and a blinking pineapple. It just turns on to the pineapple for 2 seconds then reboots back to the pineapple.
Is anyone else having this problem?
I am running 1.1.4 with 4.05.04_G
Any help is greatly appreciated,
EN on July 25th, 2008 at 1:08 am
@Francisco: actually in the process of already trying this, need another 5-10 mins to confirm. thanks for the heads up!
@EN: WinPwn is for Windows, PwnageTool is for Mac — check the link at the very top of the article for a tutorial on that.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 1:09 am
hi andrew, i’m applying the technique above on ‘not activating the iphone’ and restoring the phone now. Hopefully once that finishes, and I ‘register’ the phone again everything will be okay. If not I guess I’ll have to revert back to the standard version 2 software. My question though is I’m in Australia connected to the vodafone network. Before this restore, I couldn’t find any ‘carrier’ information (i.e anything relating to Vodafone). Is there going to be problems even if I roll back to the standard 2.0 at a later time? I’m worried my carrier settings have been lost.
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:10 am
im getten iphone could not be restored error 1602 any clues i think maybe i didnt put the phone DFU Mode. its keeps showing a cable pointinf towards itunes on my phones screen
lee on July 25th, 2008 at 1:11 am
@Steven: In the US we are connected to AT&T. Don’t be concerned yet, I am quite sure that if the current method doesn’t work (automatically activating to Vodafone through iTunes) that a fresh restore should.
@lee: you are NOT in DFU mode (but Restore mode), read #16 above… and make sure you did Ipwner step as well.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 1:12 am
cool cool…
just waiting for restore to finalise
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:13 am
steven is whilsting while waiting
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:17 am
what if ur phones unlocked already can we still download 2.0?
jr on July 25th, 2008 at 1:18 am
fantastic, it works the first time!
Rob on July 25th, 2008 at 1:18 am
IMPORTANT: updating tutorial now, unclick ACTIVATE in ADVANCED tab. after restore, your iPhone, hooked up to comp with iTunes open, will automatically activate and GET YOU SIGNAL. thanks to all for the help…
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 1:18 am
and i have t-mobile~ rahhh! help!
jr on July 25th, 2008 at 1:19 am
SWEET!!! msg’s flowing in so far… LOL
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:20 am
oh i guess i should confirm that the ‘unchecking of activate iphone’ will resolve the iphone carrier/connection problem. My phone is now currently synching everything so will update you shortly.
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:22 am
jr on July 25th, 2008 at 1:22 am
Not sure which I’m more bummed about… The fact that I was 3 hours early and got stuck with no signal OR the fact that I got Cydia to work and noticed that there really isn’t anything there yet… Huge bummer.
I’ll go back to 2.01 until there are some apps under Cydia.
Spanky on July 25th, 2008 at 1:25 am
everything seems okay so far, now setting my wireless back up and going to download the stuff for the sydia package. msg’s working phone, network status 100%.. full bars… all great. So far happy
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:27 am

i guess ‘nearly’ everything is fine. At the moment I’m updating the packages in cydia, supposed to be about 3.7mb. It’s taken like 10 mins so far, I got a really fast internet connection. At the moment my screen on the iphone has that ‘preloader’ circle in the centre and at the top I can see my carrier/signal strength, wireless icon and time. Has anyone else had the same thing happen to them in regards to cydia?
steven on July 25th, 2008 at 1:40 am
I had the Cydia never ending update thing. Don’t sweat that. Just hold down the power button for a while and go back in to do it again.

restoring iphone now with custom firmware. **WITHOUT the activate check box checked** LOL
Chris on July 25th, 2008 at 2:09 am
@steven: You can do plenty with Cydia (though maybe not right now). Check out our Cydia 2.0 vs Installer 4.0 comparison from yesterday. In a nutshell. Cydia lets you install 3rd party apps just like Installer, but there aren’t many yet because they need to be recompiled for 2.0 firmware. As developers do this, you’ll see them appear in Cydia and have the ability to install them.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 2:10 am
can any 1 hep i folloew all the steps phone went into DFU Mode went along did steps logo of a apple come up on the sreen saying winpwn or somethink like that phone reboot itunes opened and says set up as new phone or restore from back up any clues ?

this is kind of a noob question but..how do i remove my phone from recovery mode and put it in DFU mode instead..help my phone is stuck in recovery mode and i cant get it out..
kevin on July 25th, 2008 at 3:10 am
Guys,
follow the steps but be patient. It can take over 10 minutes to do a restore.
The restore has to load and then verify.
If you are connected and previously activate to a carrier, use I-Tunes to do the activation and un-check the Activate option.
I have just done my I-Phone 3G and am connected to O2 here in the UK. It installed Cydia and the logo screens with no problems.
If you have already have a profile setup in I-Tunes, you can restore this to the phone which will install all your previous downloaded apps.
You may end up having to sync some of your stuff again (such as music) depending on your settings in I-Tunes.
Remember, pwning is just doing the firmware at this stage (unless you install apps, which I don’t think is working with Winpwn).

lee on July 25th, 2008 at 4:10 am
I believe winpwn crashing when it tries to “pwn” iTunes has to do with Vista. I’m switching to my XP computer right now to attempt this again.

jklick i had the same problems and im on xp now i cant get a signal ive followed the guid to a tee and still no signal

Guys Quick Question Mine is Jailbroken still running the Original 1.0 firmware - Working on T-Mobil
DO I restore the Phone First to the Original Firmware First removing the other Hacking software ?
2nd Question Do I do all this with the T-Mobil Sim in ? or the Original ATT Sim - then after all this put in the Sim ?
That’s what I’m unclear about ?
I hope someone can Help so I don’t screw this all up.
THANKS
and Great Job!
Steve on July 25th, 2008 at 4:27 am
Thanks for the walk through, anyone who bricked their iphone this way needs to learn how to read…
Knivezxx on July 25th, 2008 at 4:33 am
Steve if you are looking for jailbreak their are other tutorials out there…(this one covers unlocking the 3g without JB).
I suggest putting the att sim in it and updating to 1.1.4 (it should not matter), however, by doing that you are decreasing the amount of troubleshooting needed if something were to go wrong.
next with the 2g iphone you will select activate phone and you will need to download and install the old bootloaders (3.9 & 4.6).
like i said you are looking at the wrong tutorial i suggest:

hope i was some help …
Knivezxx on July 25th, 2008 at 4:42 am

Knivezxx on July 25th, 2008 at 4:45 am
@ lee, the issue I was referring to was from the poster above you (mayank). As far as your issue, I’m not an expert. My only thought is that when you created the custom firmware, you left the “activate” box checked off on the advanced options. If that’s not the case, maybe there’s some way to reactivate your phone through iTunes? Sorry I can’t be of more help.

No problems on the O2 signal, it was always dropping down to one bar here inside the house and now I can see 2 ok, then jumps up when on a call etc.
To be honest, there is not a lot you can do with the phone even though it is jailbroken as a lot of the apps have not been ported to the 2.0 firmware. That said, you can at least have a play around and have the custom logo’s which are just a way to be unique from 90% of the I-Phones out there. Plus it may make you feel warm and fuzzy inside if/when you show your friends …
I agree with Knivezxx, if you cannot even perform basic computer functions and cannot read fully through the tutorial, then why even try this … makes you pretty stupid if you do.
Just to clarify on what I did, for those of you who can read and follow steps in order. This is for a phone that is on a contract in UK with O2, AND was already activated and fully functional in the first place.
1. Downloaded and installed winpwn 2.0.0.2 AFTER un-installing 2.0.01.
2. Created a IPSW directory under the winpwn installation directory and downloaded the “3G iPhone 2.0 5A347″ Firmware, to this directory, from iClarified. If you cannot find it with google, then stop reading here and go outside and play with a bus or a car in the middle of the road as you should not be here …
3. Shut down I-Tunes if open (should be version 7.7 installed)
4. Plugin I-Phone to computer and start winpwn.
5. Browse to the directory you saved the IPSW in, and select this file. Do this by following the guide above (which in my mind, is very easy to follow). The other greyed out buttons will now be available.
———————————
The next steps involve customising the IPSW you just loaded above.
———————————
Make sure your phone is connected by this stage, as it is required to build the new IPSW you are about to create.
6. Pressed the ‘IPSW Builder’ button and made sure the option ‘Install Cydia’ is checked AND ‘Active Phone’ was not. I did not have the ‘U-Tube Activation Fix’ checked either as there was no problem with my U-Tube on the phone in the first place. So no check on that.
Clicked the ‘Use Custom Pictures’ as I thought they looked cool, and I like to be different I guess.
7. When I was satisfied with the options selected, I pressed the ‘Build .ipsw’ button. When prompted I placed this file to be created in the same directory as the one I download.
8. Went and watched ‘The Unit’ on TV whilst the building of the custom IPSW took place.
9. When this process was finished I made sure that I-Tunes WAS CLOSED.
10. Pressed the ‘iPwner’ button and waited for it to complete and pop-up the message that I-Tuned was pwned. This did not take that long from memory.
11. Closed down the winpwn program.
** Now note, you need to have I-Tunes closed for the next step **
12. Held down the Power and Home keys (whilst phone still connected to computer) until the phone shut down and went to black screen. You will notice that a screen showing ‘Slide to Power Off’ (or words to that effect) appear, but continue hold the keys till the screen goes black.
This takes about 10 seconds.
13. When the screen goes black, let go of the Power key BUT keep the home key pressed. Wait about another 10 seconds until the computer pops up a info message that a new device has been found (like when you plug in a USB device ….). This will say that a DFU device has been found, when this happens you can let go of the home key.
I-Tunes will now launch on its own, one the computer catches up after recognising the DFU device (which is what you phone is now being seen as).
14. Click ok to the I-Tunes info message. Then whilst holding down the shift key press the ‘Restore’ button, and navigate to the custom IPSW you created above.
15. Follow the prompts and let the process begin.
** Now be patient **
At this stage I went and got breakfast, and watch some more of ‘The Unit’. Great show that, glad they are playing re-runs here …
This process takes time, and you will see the new logo (if you installed it into the IPSW) and a status dial on screen turning. ** Again, leave it alone and come back later **
I think it took a good 10 minutes to load and verify the restore.
The phone then will re-boot and re-connect to I-Tunes. I may have unplugged and re-plugged the Phone after the flash to get I-Tunes to recognise it.
16. As I had my phone backed up, I chose to restore the profile (not new user) I had saved.
At this stage I went and had a shower (I was stinky - had a loong night at the pub), it took a while to fully restore all the stuff I had on the phone including the Apps I had already installed.
Once I-Tunes had done its stuff, I had to re-sync my music due to the settings I have in I-Tunes.
Job done - no issues. All the old Apps work, and even managed to update the Cydia files.

Raist3001 on July 25th, 2008 at 6:05 am
Hello all.
I followed all the instructions and it went great, managed to sync back all data and everything was working, except for my phone service. It kept showing up without bars. I tried with and without the “Activate iphone” setting in Winpwn, same with both. So it seems I have to wait some more time before things work… Seems more ppl has this problem (Lee just above with O2 for one).
I got the iPhone 3G with swedish Telia as service.
mrpijey on July 25th, 2008 at 6:12 am
Actually will stand corrected here, after updating the Cydia files (with the recommended updates) the links to the available apps were updated also.
There are now a very good number of cool little apps available for 2.0 firmware.
Nice …..
Probably going to run out of space installing all the little tweaks and things …
London on July 25th, 2008 at 6:20 am
Lee,
if you have no luck, let me know and I can somehow get the IPSW I used to you.
Cheers
London on July 25th, 2008 at 6:22 am
I have a question:
When I first got my iPhone, I got a new phone number (call it #1). Then I decided to port my old phone number (call it #2) over to AT&T, which overwrote the phone number I originally got (#1). My current number is #2. So if I go through this process, after activation, will my phone have #1 or #2 associated with it? It should have #2 (which is what I want). I just want to make sure before I pwn and get my original number (#1) back somehow.

An addition to my post (#120):
I noticed that after restoring the original firmware iTunes downloads some extra carrier updates. I believe those make my iPhone to connect to my carrier (since i got no carrier before the update). Any way to manually apply these after jailbreak? And what exactly is updated?

keeping iPhone connected while using winown is very important. I did connect it and everything went fine.
Also after flashing for some time iPhone could not catch the net and was showing no servise, I was about to flash it again but then noticed that network was back. So give it some time after flashing.

Elie on July 25th, 2008 at 9:59 am
I’m with ATT and did NOT checked the youtube fix, however, there is message that “you must connect to iTunes with a internet connection to enable you tube”, does that mean I still need to check the youtube fix?
Also, if I don’t checking the activate phone, it will not work for me.
jerichol on July 25th, 2008 at 10:04 am
@seezee: does your carrier information appear in the upper-left?
@elie: make sure you didn’t skip any steps (i.e. pwning iTunes before restore) and also ensure you were in DFU mode not recovery mode. if all was good, try switching USB ports.
Andrew Robinowitz on July 25th, 2008 at 10:07 am
t o 150: Try doing it again with “activate phone” checked. It works for me though.
Plus don’t know why but if I checked the “youtube fix” at least it won’t give me the “must connect to iTunes …” thing. I’m with ATT
jerichol on July 25th, 2008 at 10:15 am
Guys, is unchecking activation just for ATT subscribers or for everyone? (Just checking) and Andrew, iPhone is in DFU
and I got the iTunes has been pwned msg before proceeding…and switching USB ports didn’t help…
sorry to bother u
Is there any way to boot out of DFU mode w/o restoring?
Elie on July 25th, 2008 at 10:17 am
ok, im done now, it works now, thats what i did on windows vista:
everything like descrbing above :p… I unchecked youtube fix, and i unchecked everything in advanced mode, thats its, after that i clicked on ipwnd, then i tunes was pwnd, i started itunes, put my iphone on usb, i had still my iphone on, then i pushed powerbutton and homebutton together for 10 seconds, then realeasing the powerbutton but still pushing the homebutton for another 10 seconds, after that my iphone went black, then the pupup on itunes ”popped up”, clicked ok, then holding shift and clicking restorebutton, then opening the ispw i made with winpwnd thats it!
now, i am waiting foe some replacement sources in ydia for like 15minutes, how long does that take?

Joey on July 25th, 2008 at 11:30 am
Hey, just wondering if this has worked for anybody so far…
I accidentally upgraded my first gen 8GB 1.1.4 iPhone last night to 2.0, and it relocked itself I believe. I just get redirected to an emergency call option now… so does that mean it’s been relocked? Or is it bricked? I’m confused with the terms. Help!
I am the least tech-savvy person to have graced the earth so I’m hoping this hack should do the trick! Does this hack unlock and set me back to 1.1.4? Because that’s all I want right now…
Thank you

@danjhoros: the screen on your iPhone? during just booting or restoring (when custom images appear) or what? never heard of this… you can email me a screenshot to: info at appleiphoneapps dot com
@ray: in step 10 of the tutorial, are you selecting a custom image or using default (nothing selected)? also, the firmware you are using is for a 3G.

my iphone is the new 3g iphone. so i downloaded the 3g firmware. i left everything blank in step 10. because mine reads Failed to Load Image Catalog when starting up the program 2.0.0.3

@ray: error 6 could mean you are in restore mode, not DFU mode.
