Im having a problem with mine.
Basically when i first done it, it didnt work. After jailbreaking it it would reboot.
So i restored it to factory settings.
Now i try to jailbreak it and it stays stuck on step 7 (when you suppose to hold down home button for 5 secs .. ect). It stays stuck on "wait for your iphone to connect to recovery mode).
So i have to keep resetting it back to factory settings. Any1 know what the problem is and how i can fix it.
Thanks

I'm LOVIN it! Guys, if you're on the fence on using either this or ziphone, go with THIS guide, DO WHAT IT SAYS without skipping steps, and you'll be done. I tried jailbreaking my brand new 3G on Saturday with ziphone...notice I said TRIED...after having to restore, re-sync, etc, I was back to an OTB iPhone. No disrespect to Zibri, I ziphone'd my 2G with no problems, but it killed my 3G. I was hesitant after the drama but tried this method, and two minutes later I'm all set. Thanks for the walk thru guys, and thanks to the DEV team! Another iPhone set free!

Hi guys, i've a problem when trying to jailbreak iphone 3g using Quickpwn (windows).. i couldn't launch QuickPwn22-1 as there is an error windows that pops up when i try to run it..
The window says "QuickPawn.exe - .NET Framework Initialization Error", and says "To run this application, you must first install one of the follwing versions of the .NET Framework: v2.0.50727. Contact your application publisher for instrcutions about obtaining the appropriate version of the .NET Framework"
Can anyone kindly direct me on how to go about solving this problem? Thanks a million!
THANKS!

You need to install .Net Framework runtimes and associated file for Quickpwn to work. You can download it from Microsoft's site: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en
Hope it helps. We have also updated the post for the benefit for other readers.

I cant seem to get my phone jailbroken.
when i connect my phone, Quickpwn picks it up. So i carry on, and it goes onto the screen that has installer, cydia and the pineapple logo. I choose what i want (Cydia and Installer) and when you go to the screen where you are meant to hold down the home button for 5 sec .. it stays on the first step. And doesn't go any further. I thought it might be slow or something, but i waited for like 10 minutes.
And i have to mention that the first time i tried it. It worked, and i held down home for 5 seconds .. ect. And it said the whole jailbreak thing was successful. And i could see the pineapple man look thing uploading something onto my phone. But when my phone started to reboot. It stayed on the reboot screen. And it wouldnt move from that screen. So i restored it to factory settings. And now when i try quickpwn it doesn't work (what i explained earlier).
Ive searched the net and theres quite a few people with same kinda problem. Is there a solution?
Would really appreciate it.
Sorry if i haven't explained it properly. If you need anymore details let me know.
Many Thanks.

Hey Prabha,
You also need to unlock your iPhone using Dev Team's yellowsn0w app after jailbreaking your iPhone.
You can checkout our step by step guide for more details:

My Iphone 3G says it's running 2.2.1 (5H11) with modem firmware 02.30.03 will this work for my devise or not?
-
I followed these instructions and it all worked fine. Apart from my Iphone now has no signal, so i cannot make calls or send texts. I'm in the UK on O2 if that makes a difference.
