    I used the QuickPwn tool to unlock/jailbreak my 1st gen iPhone. I had previously installed fresh 2.0.1 fw using iTunes.

    The tool worked very well and the interaction - though in text were clear.

    The phone seems to be unlocked and jailbroken but when I put in my AT&T sim card (from my existing phone), phone shows no signal and cannot make a call.

    Can you please help and suggest what am I doing wrong ? Can the QuickPwn tool be used for this purpose ?

    sb37 you activated your iphone which you are not meant to do. You can put it in expert mode and when it says do you want to activate click no, but it should have been done when it asks if you are with an approved carrier.

    How do install customised ipsw via iTune? I have tried restoring from the list given by iTune, but none looks like the customised one.

    ben - thanks for your response. Maybe I should clarify - I don't have a iphone plan with at&t - I only have a regular dataplan with them. Should I still select "do not activate" ?

    Would greatly appreciate help from any of the experienced people here.

    I was unlocking my 1st gen iphone and the phone shut off when the baseband was being flashed. Now I can't get iTunes to retore ANY firmware. It's completely bricked. Any suggestions?!

    Hey mofarmania,

    Sorry to hear about that.

    You should be able to restore your iPhone by putting your iPhone in DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode. You can follow these steps to achieve this:

    * Connect your iPhone to your computer
    * Turn iPhone off
    * Hold power and home together for 10 seconds (exactly)
    * Release power but keep holding home until the computers beeps (observed on a PC) as a USB device is recognized.
    * At no point will the display come on. Now your restore should work.

    Hope it helps.

    cheers!

    ATTENTION - don't use the Quickpwn Option of Winpwn 2.5.0.2 just for jailbreaking an offical iphone (1st Gen.) - it will unlock without asking giving issues with the lockdown files (Youtube not longer working).

    I guess I am lost. I have a perfectly functioning jailbroken original IPhone running 1.1.3. I think I want to install ver 2.x firmware. winpwn 2.5 is apparently for 1.1.4. Do I go directly from 1.1.3 using iTunes (version???)to firmware 2.x or do I have to upgrade to 1.1.4 and jailbreak, first?
    Then, once I am on firmware 2.X will I be able to recover any of my applications/themes/etc. from the 1.1.3 (as presently using?)

    Help, again. I thought I followed the winpawn 2.5 instructions. I now have a not Jailbroken fw 2.0.2 iphone. No matter what I tried I was not able to get iTunes to do anything but restore (and update). How do I get Cydia installed?

    I previously used ZiPhone to jailbreak and unlock my 1st gen iPhone and had no problems. I just upgraded to 2.0.2 from 1.1.4 and used WinPwn 2.5 to jailbreak it. After doing so, I was required to re-activate my iPhone before I could sync/restore. Not sure if I did something wrong but while annoying, the more serios problem is that any App I install from the AppStore (paid or free) will not run. I get icons but when tapped, they only give a blank screen for a few seconds and then return to the homepage. I tried re-pwning the phone to no avail. AppStore is the ONLY reason I finally gave up 1.1.4. I saw a similar post under the WinPwn 2.4 article comments but no replies. Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions

    i have a 3g iphone and tried to jailbreak it. i followed the instructions but my battery died towards the end of the process. so i tried it again and now when it gets towards the end of the process it closes the program and a data execution prevention thing pops up and says it closed the program. now itunes isnt recognizing the iphone. it says it could not connect to iphone because an invalid responce was recieved from the device. if any one could help i would appreciate it. because now im stuck with a bricked iphone.

    Hey Adan,

    Sorry to hear about your problem.

    You can restore your iPhone by putting it in DFU mode.

    You can follow these steps to achieve this:
    Connect your iPhone to your computer.
    Turn iPhone off.
    Hold power and home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
    Release power but continue holding the home button until iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.
    Clicking Ok should restore your iPhone.

    Hope this helps.

    cheers!
