    weird, i never had a problem with youtube after jailbreaking with ziphone 2.5 - i wonder if it's because i set my phone up as a new phone instead of using one of my previous backups ?? no idea, but it works and i'm a happy camper :)

    I just did a "shift-restore" to 1.1.4

    with iTUNES I downloaded update only, then did a shift-restore and browsed to 1.1.4 file.

    did that, then synced phone to get my contacts back.

    then ran Zibri 2.5c gui (selected jailbreak ) button only. it ran and jailbroke the phone.

    everything works fine. no extra steps needed. my phone was 1.1.1 OOTB

    an easier way to fix the youtube may be try adding apfelphone.net to the installer source, refresh, then under the install tab look for apfelphone.net directory and install the youtube fix.

    Hey Guys, This is Mikey (SpikeyMikey303) ... To "youtube fix", my YouTube fix does not touch your baseband in no way, shape or form so your service issue maybe down to ZiPhone's jailbreak. At what time did you stop getting cellular service? I will be more than happy to help you if you can give me some details :-)

    Also, to "mobilepsy", the apfelphone fix is for previous firmware versions of the iPhone... I have tried that on both 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 with no luck, along with a lot of other people on here. My fix is spot on and will work 100%. I have tested it on multiple iPhones with great success along with the other people on here :-)

    If I have time, I will create my own repo for Installer and create an application for this fix so it will be easier... It's not very hard anyway, but I love to make life easier.

    Let me know if you need any help!

    also as i mentioned before try changing your sim card as that will reset your network settings then try running youtube, then put your sim card back and it should be fine.... i tried it on both 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 and it worked fine...let me know if it works!

Never had a youtube problem when i was on 1.1.1 any suggestions. (The Edgde settings are as they were on 1.1.1)

    apfelphone.net worked for my previous 1.1.3 soft upgraded iPhone. Currently I am using full 1.1.3 upgraded jailbroken unlocked by ziphone with any problem. All app working. I would still recommend trying apfelphone.net no harm and easy. Thanks anyway for the feedback.

    Hi, when I click on the MAC version on the ZiPhone download page all I get is a page that loads with code. Same result if I CTRL/RETURN and download the file. Any ideas? Thanks, Ken

    You best bet to fix the baseband problem is take-out the sim and put it back in, restart you iphone, then connect to itunes, It should automatically fix it, but Hey that might have been just one of those "chance" things... Worth a try!

    Hey Zann...

    Are you talking about the Username and Password for WinSCP?

    If so, ensure you have the correct IP address for the iPhone.

    To obtain it, simply go to SETTINGS, WI-FI, and once you connect to your Wi-Fi connection, click the BLUE ARROW button to the right of it, this will provide you with all the network settings including the IP address assigned to the iPhone.

    Also, ensure AUTO-LOCK is set to NEVER as the connection will be disconnected once locked...

    One more thing, You MUST have BSD SUBSYSTEM and OPEN SSH before doing this :-)

    But once you check all of this, you should be good to go!

    Let me know if you need anymore help community and have a great day!

    Hey Junior...

    I'm sorry you are having issues downloading ZiPhone for the mac!

    I went ahead and downloaded it for you on my end, and have put it onto MediaFire - Go ahead and try and download it from here...

    Also, to anyone else who is having issues I have uploaded the Windows version too!

    Have fun :-)

    RIAMO...

    Did you reset your Network Settings after you rebooted the iPhone?

    If you did, try again and make sure you have EDGE on :-)

    It should go right through with no problem!

    Thanks!

    Oh I'm sorry Junior - I misread the Comments, the MAC/WIN ZiPhone Download links was for KEN :-)

    As for your email issue - Have you tried any other account on your Device? Possibly a Gmail account or Comcast? I gather you are trying to setup Yahoo! email on there due to the “imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com” error you are recieving.

    Go ahead and try to setup a different provider account... If that works, it could be an issue with Yahoo! Mail - I personally do not setup my Yahoo! account on my iPhone as that is just for Junk mail, but my Comcast and Gmail accounts work just fine.

    Try that and let me know - If you still have no luck, you MAY have to Restore :-(

    Thanks Junior!

    Just a question, sorry am a newb. If I jailbreak my iphone but something goes wrong or a new patch comes out can I restore my phone to factory settings without any side effects? I understand stuff can go wrong but do I have the choice of rolling back?

    hi mikey,

    first of all thanks alot, I'm using mac and I cannot use winSCP, is there any other way to use your method for the youtube problem, like adding it to installer?
    Many thanks.

    Hey JOB & JIMSKATZ!

    Job, You can RESTORE back to Factory Settings at anytime using iTunes and the 1.1.4 Restore file that I provided the link to :-) No side-effects whatsoever. You can also undo any changes that ZiPhone made to your iPhone by opening ZiPhone and clicking "Restore" - It basically restores the iPhone back to a "LOCKED" status.

    Jimskatz, I am working on a repo right now for Installer and will update you all once it is done...

    I am at work right now, but I am working on it in between my "free" time...which is none but shhh! Don't tell my boss! LOL

    Thank you for the support guys and I will keep you posted!

    The fix for YouTube works great. However, my iphone now shows up under DEVICES in iPhoto as "Mikey's iPhone"... a minor annoyance. It is correctly identified in iTunes.

    Hi,
    I started to do the update to 1.1.4 as described.
    Maybe I did a stupid mistake because I updated Itunes to the latest version 7.6.1.9 before I did so.
    After the update (step 4) I now get a message in Itunes that my SIM card is not supported. The Iphone shows only the "slide for emergency" screen. What can I do now? Can I downgrade Itunes somehow? Please help! I need to use my phone urgently.
