    One final note. I am on a Mac, so I used Fugu to accomplish the same things as you used WINSCP for.

    Hi Mike,

    I've solved it by my self. My mistake was that I had a connection to itunes when I was updating the 3 files + the 2 folders. Thanks for your great fix, man.

    I did all the steps but ATT stops working. I kept a backup of the files and put back the original ones. ATT started working again. Any other way to activate youtube. By the way, i have an unlocked 1.1.4 with a 1.2 baseband(MISTAKE! on my part).

    I unlocked my iPhone with ziphone and can't access my email account. I tap the "mail" button and it just goes blank for a second and then takes me back to the home icons. It's not a huge problem since I can still access my email through the browser but it was so much easier to do through the mail icon. Help!

    This actually works well. I'm currently running Firmware Version 1.1.4. jailbroken with ZiPhone 2.6c or was it b, one of those versions.

    I didn't do the SSH way via WiFi. For users who do not have WiFi access you can manually delete the files/folders and replace the ones that you downloaded from SpikeyMikey.

    Google iphonebrowser and download the latest version. This allows you to basically explore your iphone files. If you broke your iphone with any ZiPhone version, you must have installed the ZiPhone iBrickr fix available from repo: i.unlock.no, otherwise iphonebrowser will not detect your jailbroken phone.

    Then go to the folders as request, I manually deleted the 3 files in the lockdown folder and then deleted the other 2 folders. You then just drag and drop the 3 files back into lockdown folder and the other 2 folders back into lockdown also.

    Restart your iPhone and run youtube, it should work. I avoided the reset all settings function since i didn't want to do everything all over again, so i gave it a shot and it works fine.

    Also, if you want to change the name from Mikey's iPhone to anything you desire, open up the data_ark file with notepad, find the line where it says Mikey's iPhone and change to your desire. Save it, then replace the file on the iPhone via browser and restart the phone again and test it. It should work fine.

    I have did this on 2 phones, same firmware and both jailbroken with ZiPhone 2.6c. The other one i did reset all settings, the second one i didn't and they both work fine, nothing lost. The only thing gained is YouTube working again.

    Wow, great fix mickey!!! It was worth jailbreaking the phone before but now its perfect. At first I was trying to just drag and drop right from the opened youtube folder, and it wasnt working at all. I got disappointed and kept at it for a couple of minutes until I noticed that I had to open it on the left side. I real Duhhhhhh moment for me, lol. Either way, I hope that is helpful to some crazy nut out there like myself :)

    Thanks again & Enjoy your Memorial weekend guys!!!!!!!!

    I tried this update with an already jailbroken phone. I updated the files, after restarting i could not connect to the cell network (ATT), however youtube worked fine via my wifi. Fortunately I backed up the Lockdown folder so I restored the files and rebooted. Cell service back, youtube broken again. So it seems I'm having the same issue as the previous poster who lost cell service...and it's not related to the jailbreak. Any ideas?

    Hello again! I've found a good and more importantly free SCP client for the mac called Fugu. It's easy to use and you can download it here: http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu/download.html Youtube is up and running fine now. Big shout out to SpikeyMikey and also to frank willis for his post on changing the name and using a different client to access the iphone :-] Horray!

    This fix works perfect. If you're on OS X you have to use a program called “Transmit” instead of “WINSCP” which is a PC based program. Thank you so much for pointing us in the right direction.

    I had unlocked my iphone (1.1.4) with 2.5 and youtube was not working.

    I followed your steps and got youtube working but lost cell home service to ATT.

    Pls help. I would hate to restore iphone back to it original (dumb) state.
