Step by Step Guide to JailBreak iPhone 3G using Windows
Comments

I can get as far as browsing for the custom install, but then when i try and load it it just gets as far as "preparing for restore" then says, "unknown error occured (1) iPhone could not be restored"
factory restore package unloaded just fine though.
any ideas?
-
Anyone get this to work? I'm about to try it.

Worked perfectly. No problems on my iPhone 3G

I had the 1601 and 1602 error codes too. (even tried installing itunes on different pc's) but after a few hours I finally found the problem. I think there are many DIFFERENT (iPhone1,2_2.0_5A347_Custom_Restore.ipsw) firmware files. You just have to figure out which one works. I have both (x12220000_4_Recovery.ipsw) and (iPhone1,2_2.0_5A347_Custom_Restore.ipsw)files that worked for me. I wonder if it's ok to upload them on my server so everyone can just download it...
-
@ Chris...... can you please upload the file elsewhere they are not on users.on.net/thevillage/pwnage/win/ any more

Hi, It didn't work for me too, got this weird error also...
I've have downloaded the iPhone1,2_2.0_5A347_Custom_Restore.ipsw throught the bittorrent. After got the error I decided to check the MD5 to see if the file was not corrupted. I got this MD5 with my file: db4f1023f9ddcdcad81f839fc204246e
In this japanese forum they got different MD5 numbers also: http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fpc11.2ch.net%2Ftest%2Fread.cgi%2FiPhone%2F1216516831%2F&hl=en&ie=UTF8&sl=ja&tl=en
Can anyone post here the MD5 of a custom restore file that DID work?

can someone help me???

I'm new to the iphone hacking. I hacked other stuff before (xbox,xbox360,apple Tv) so i wanna clear some questions before starting.
I have a regular Iphone 3g with a contract. I want to jailbreak it, but no change of my provider neither of the SIM-Card.
1.)When is the "unlooking" needed? When i want to change the Provider or the SIM? In my case that wouldn't be used anyway?
2.) I don't need special software/hack to reactivate my iphone after the jailbreak? Just need the Iphone 3g with a SIM-Card and the Itunes?
3.)Can i destroy my iphone? Or will i always be able to restore it?
Big Thx

Wait for official Iphone Dev Team Pwned Package for Windows!!!!

I will be waiting for the official iPhone Dev Team Pwned Package for Windows since there are more people having problems then people who succesfully installed it.

I Jailbroke my 3G iphone yesterday, although after the jailbreak it hardly was a phone. My settings no longer had the option to select my carrier, so I could no longer make/receive calls or use the 3G network. Anyway since then I had to restore back to factory settings, but would still love to successfully get all features up and running on my phone. Does anyone have any suggestions?
-
i have xp media - it did not work for me - when i restored the recovery file it stuck on a blank white screen
-
this actually seems to work! and far better than the recently released Winpwn 2.0.0.1 RC1 (non-functional beta?)
Not for the faint of heart however, as you will have to wait through some long, nerve racking blank screens and looping progress bars. my fingernails are all shorter after this.
-
why dont the links in step 1 work?
-
>>michele
good question. look through the comments for links to a **** containing the files which is also easy to find at www.isohunt.com. if you don't know about torrents, it's a good time to learn!UPDATE
i did this. it works. it was nerve racking.
a day later i noticed a little problem, all the programs i downloaded from AppStore BEFORE the jailbreak crash immediately. They must be deleted and reinstalled.
Also, the time is reset to Cupertino. Don't get your schedule mixed up! -

just jailbroke my iPhone and i went into the cydia app and it said i needed to download some important updates. Once it got to 'downloading coreutils' it hasnt finished up the downloading...its been going 4 bout half an hour, Should it take that long?
-
Hello,
thx guys for the tutorial, worked perfect. To all those in UK i can say that it works on new o2 iphones 3g also, so don't b afraid (like i was:P ) :D
once again thx :)
-
Both files are not available to download. Where can they now be obtained?
-
P.S. I am not super computer savy and do not know what torrents are. When I tried to download something, they wanted me to join a **** site. Does anyone have the file they could send me or show me a free direct link. THANKS!
-
I want to ask this befor jailbraking.. When you have to reactivate it at the end? What does that really mean? Is your AT&T current account cancel or any of that or what?? I just want to make sure before getting myself into a bad situations.. :)
