Hello,

I am very confused with all the conflicting info scattered around the web.

Here is my situation, I unlocked my phone with iPhone SimFree back in mid September.

I am happily using a Tmobile sim card with firmware 1.0.2.

I read that I can update to firmware 1.1.1 and my iphone will remain unlocked.

If I do upgrade to 1.1.1 - can I simply use Touchfree to activate?

Will Touchfree activate v1.1.1 with a Tmobile sim card?

I found iPhuc too difficult to understand.

Thanks in advance.

This software is for the iPod Touch, not the iPhone. Ask about this in the iPhone forum.

Then i made the mistake of installing 'SummerBoard' and the same thing happened to me that I see happene to others. My bottom icons are now on top.

Try installing the new version of summer board thru installer, the previous version has bugs that do that....u have to uninstall the old 1 1st of course....

I have my own problem as well....i did a jailbreak on my GF's touch using windows, shes a mac user....everything went smoothly until she tried syncing it, her mac detects the ipod as a digicam and wont sync with itunes....isnt it possible to jailbreak a mac based ipod using windows???

[eudoxuz]

hi, i jailbroke my ipod. and i already install the community source conceited and ste. i all works fine when i download from the conceited. but i cant download a thing from the ste. do you have any idea?

[miaka]

i am trying to jailbreak my itouch. whenever i try to connect to http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com/ via safari, it simply routes to http://www.toc2rta.com/ and nothing happens…. any suggestion? thanks!^-^

[mmfy]

Or is it in the works? iJailbreak looks good but doesn't seem to do as many checks as touchfree to make sure there is no bricking, while this is only on windows!

[razor237]

i cant connect to http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com via safari, it it just redirects me to http://www.toc2rta.com/ and doesnt crash safari , Anyone know if there is a problem with that site


thanks

i cant connect to http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com via safari, it it just redirects me to http://www.toc2rta.com/ and doesnt crash safari , Anyone know if there is a problem with that site

Same here ?

My firmware is at 1.1.1 [3A110a]

thanks

Me 2! any ideas anyone?

[Arisian]

thats interesting. I think its treating your ipod as if its not an ipod and just redirecting you. What week are you using again?

[PR.]

It's not the iPod, the tiff just isn't there.

[mmfy]

S0...did someone remove he site (Apple for instance) or is it down? Also can the same thing not be set up at a different URL?

[Bonf79]

there is a mirror in http://jailbreak.kengz.com

[matsuyama]

http://www.toc2rta.com/?q=node/30

I have succeeded to jailbreak with my own exploition tiff file.

% g++ itiff_exploit.cpp
% ./a.out 1.1.1 > crack.tif
% cp crack.tif ~/public_html
% sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start

Then, open http://192.168.0.1/~matsuyama/crack.tif with Safari on your iPod.

[PR.]

I used that mirror link and I'm currently up to "Checking for fstab validity"

[Bonf79]

I tried it too and worked perfectly! just installed NES :D

[mt6981]

Touchfree worked wonderful...Can't thank you enough!!! But to a novice like myself, its like my touch is still unhacked... If you can't figure out how to get anything on it, it's no different (you can lead people to water, but you can't make them drink)... maybe someday I'll figure it out or hopefully apple allows 3rd party software sooner then later.

Thanks again!!

I HAVE READ A LOT OF PEOPLE ASK THIS QUESTION. (even from other sites)
The first answer I got is the mirror file.

Can anyone guarantee that it works? PR what happened?

thanks

[PR.]

Hi miaka,

The mirror worked fine, I would strongly recommend that you do a full restore on the iPod before starting as I got stuck in the 300mb mode for sometime while I worked out how to recover it. The second run through was fine.

[Andresg]

helpp!! i did the instructions to hack the ipod touch but then is not reponding i did the thing u have to put on safari on the ipod touch but then the program of the computer is not responding hell p what should i do

[nabonl]

Hello,

Today I installed touchFree on my Touch. Everything seemed to work out just fine during the installation. Until I connected again to iTunes.

1. All my previous music and videos were gone;
2. iTunes tells me that I have a 5.37Gb other section on the iPod!! So almost all my space is gone.

Anybody knows what I did wrong.

Best Regards,

Naboonl

Hi all,

Just jailbroke my touch, using the latest GUI touchfree.

all appears fine, have the Installer and SMBprefs on my touch, and I can connect to itunes.

However, when attempting to sync, itunes seems to view my existing tunes and videos on the touch (appx 10.5 GBs) as "other". Also, on my touch, the videos and music arent there. They must be , since itunes sees the "memory bulk" on my ipod as "other"...but my touch doesnt see them (in the "music" section, or the "about" section which usualy shows total songs and videos..)...hope this makes sense to you? Also, when I first connected to itunes after jailbraking, I tunes attempted to create a playlist automatically from my music files....weird. Any attempt to sync now brings up a " cant sync, due to insufficent space" type message....

Any suggestions as to how to rectify this situation?

I am running Vista, used the latest GUI, and all went well on install.

please help!

[goldypoker]

Seems like the poster above and I have the same problem exactly.....

I have read and re-read this thread to no avail...any suggestions?..anyone?

Seems like I figured out an acceptable workaround for this problem....

I did another reset & restore through itunes....but this time, only restoring the firmware, but not syncing any music/vids/etc... from itunes. Then I ran the GUI again, went through it smoothly, and after all that, resynced with the touch after I rebooted my PC.

Everything re-synced fine, and I now have the new installer and SMBprefs apps as well as my entire library on my touch again...as well, my itunes reads everything as it should be.

Maybe this was what was meant by a "fresh restore to ver. 1.1.1", but I didnt note were it said to only restore the software, not the itunes data.

Hope this helps someone with the same problem...

Now, to scour youtube for the appropriate tutorial videos on how to install apps after a jailbreak. I downloaded the zip file as well...should I install the iphuc or any other programs on my PC as well?? This part of the process was discussed very vaguely here.....
Although the instuctions to jailbreak are quite clear and comprehensive, there is almost no info on what to do with the rest of the extracted zipfiles, or how to download the apps once jailbroke...guess there might be legal implications there.......Also, that other site 9about how to download apps after JB) refered to in this thread....seems like the first post was deleted...more legal issues?

Anyways, thanks for all the help in the jailbreak...Im free, Im free!!!

[gready123456]

touchFree installs trip1pogostick, SummerBoard and Installer.

i jus read this at the touchfree website

News

I'm testing an alpha of a new version of the program. It can be found here. The benefits include having only one single reboot step. Only Installer and SummerBoard are installed, but you have the option of getting SSH by installing the OpenSSH package in Installer. Please contact me with any feedback.


can any one help out here i jus want to kno if trip1pogostick is also installed in this version of touch free ( toughfree alpha)

from what i have read there are some issues with trip1pogostick and summerboard i jus want to be sure before i use the touchfree alpha i relay dont want to have problems with summerboard

[paulnb]

Thanks for the program and guide. no problems following the guide and I jailbroked and unlocked my iphone using this method.

Can somebody point me towards removing touchfree modifications on iphone without restoring using itunes ( change log or additions done to the file system will also do) .
btw i used touchfree not the alpha version.

Thanks in advance

Same things have happened to me, even worse when I experimented in other ways.....had to reset, restore and re-JB everytime.

I have asked the same question "what to do AFTER jailbreak", or how to even instal the 3rd party apps (which I understand are included in the GUI touchfree install app)...no-one seems to want to help. Seems like the question is too far beneath the "gurus" to be answered....
I have searched this and other forums for many hours, and did the same on youtube for video tutorials...nothing for a GUI .06 touchfree specific JB.
This is the best Ive found, exactly what I want, but far too general and vague to be even remotely useful..
http://www.ipodtouchhacks.com/ipod/touch/install-applications/

I have been able to gather that there is a way to install apps (at least, 3rd party ones, not iphone ones..) from the JB'd touch itself, but no-one seems to want to provide a defintive answer......

Oh well, at this point, Id be grateful for even the standard "use the search function" response....even though I have extensively....

[hecks]

@ goldypoker

No gurus here. ;)

So, you can see the Installer icon now, right? When you click on it, and then click on any of the 3rd party apps listed, is the Install button not working for you? This is such an easy step for most people that they probably can't understand why it's not working for you. Perhaps give a little more info about your problem?

Definitely install Community Sources, this will populate Installer with a long list of the most desirable apps. Note: iPhone apps are not on Installer.

Thank you for taking the time to answer and help out.

I tried this, and yes, I have the installer, but I screwed it up by installing Summerboard? (main apps at top, cant access them...) I was afraid to do anything else without some counsel, I have restored and re-JB'd my touch about 5 times already...ARGHH! I have since read that it's already installed, and by re-installing it this way, it screws up the original install....

I have gathered from my searches that installing Iphone apps is a more involved process, requiring additional programs on your PC and code work with your touch...maybe in the future.
But just being able to install 3rd party apps from the installer will be a thrill.

Do i need to be connected to the internet on my touch before trying this?
(not sure from my last attempt...) Once i download the new apps and instal them, do I need to reset or something to get them to work?
Also, are there some apps (either native or under community services) that run well or are invaluable on the touch...are there others that should be avioded (due to unstability or uselessness)...I know I wont be hitting the "install summerboard" app again, thats for sure!

Any other advise on this procedure?

Either way, Thx again, Im sure my noob questions seem idiotic to those in the know (or partially in the know...) but I have absolutely zero experience in this area....laughablly, even though most say it was extremely simple, I gave myself a huge pat on the back for even successfully using the touchfree GUI to JB my touch, and believe me, I even managed to screw that up at least 2 times before success,LOL!

hey thanks for the replie

ive tried JB 2 times now and each time with the same result. its annoying having to restore the touch each time and go through the whole process again

the JB process aint hard and it seems to all go smoothly but when i install the 4 apps it all goes wrong!!!!!

watching the JB posts on youtube you can scroll loads of differnt apps and stuff but on my JB touch you can initialy se them when you go into installer, touch goes into some sort of checking for update thing and everything disapperas leaving only 4 things to install

this is with the new JB .6

I just did a jailbreak on my 16Gb touch today so this might be a help to you. For the record I'm using the latest version of iJailBreak rather than touchfree but hopefully it won't make a difference. I'm also writing this from memory so hopefully it'll be accurate.

Best approach I found today was as follows:

1)Start with a 'clean' iPod, no music, videos etc.
2)Run the jailbreak app of your choice and follow instructions. Try to ensure you are using the most up-to-date version of whatever app you choose.
3)Once you have the installer app on your iPod open it up and install the BSD subsystem package. Do not run the installer upgrade yet.
4) Reboot your iPod (hold down power button until the red slider appears, shut down, then start up again by pressing the power button).
5) Go into the installer application and run the upgrade to get to version 3
6) Reboot again just for the heck of it.
7) Go back into the installer application and add the 'community sources' package to get a much improved list of applications.

Hopefully after all that you should have a working system. Good luck.

[KelOren]

Neither this version or the other version is working for me. I've looked around, but to no avail.
On the other version, it won't accept the IP I put in.
In this version, it won't get past 'Verifying Write...' in step 3. It just won't move. Period. Blank progress bar.

ANYONE have a possible fix for this?! I've been trying for at least six hours.

[DataThief]

Just completed the jailbreak on my iTouch 16gb. Sweet, everything went fine with no problems. Also installed a couple of the iPhone apps and they are working fine. Makes the iTouch much more like what it should be.

From what I have read around many forums, you really need to factory restore your iTouch before doing this.

[yensed]

When the time comes, And another official update is available. Will I be able to say "No" to the update and restore my touch without updating it? I never want to take the chance of updating my iPod with any 3rd party stuff on it.

[Warped1]

I used the alpha minimal approach with just the Installer and Summerboard. It works great, thanks but I have a question.

There are many 3rd party apps that should work without the BSD Subsystem that do not work with this method of jailbreaking. Things as simple as the iLight application launch and then crash. After installing BSD Sub they no longer crash but it shouldn't be reliant on that package so the BSD install configures something else that fixes it.

Also, when you launch terminal you have to issue a ./bin/csh command before you can really do anything. I think it's related.

Any ideas how to get the shell to launch correctly at boot-up without install BSD Sub? I think it may fix some of those apps without installing the BSD.

I am trying to have a minimal install of everything to preserve as close to default as possible. I guess if I have to I will install BSD but I bet I can get around it for what I am looking to run.

[mendezjoy]

Did you restore first? At any rate, I'd restore and try again. Check if there's a rdisk0s1 file in your folder that's about 300 MB. If you don't, it just read the image wrong.

I have this same problem. I can run the jailbreak installation without problems until i get to the step 2, patching ipod flash image. It stays there forever. In posts #70, planetbeing mentioned file rdisk0s1 file. I do have that file. What should I do?

[PIOLIN10]

I restored my iPhone to 1.0.2 then updated to 1.1.1 then tried to run iTouchFree v0.6.

It keeps stating I need to visit the jailbreak URL even though I did, and I can confirm it worked by using iPhoneBrowser to verify the symlink exists.

Seems like some type of problem with its verification.

I ran touchfree 5 jailbreak.bat instead, and it worked fine, but it didn't create an afc2 service so browser utilities wouldn't work. I did that manually.

Does touchfree 6 attempt to create the afc2 service?

HELLO have the exact same problem, i have a New out of the box Iphone 1.1.1 when i ran touchfree (alpha version) in step 2 i get the message to visit the url in safari (i did it already).. I'm running Wndows XP SP2 and lates version of Itunes How ca I know that the url ha i visited in safari worked fine..? what could be the problem..? I also tried in another compuer and had the same problem... please any help..?

[PIOLIN10]

Hello I have found this in the Touchfree site

I have a new version that requires no download! This version only requires you to visit http://www.slovix.com/touchfree/jb/ on your iPod or iPhone. DO NOT VISIT THE niacin jailbreak site before. Nothing needs to be installed on your computer. After you visit the site, Safari will crash and about 30 seconds later, the iPod will reboot automatically. You will then have a device with Installer.app and SSH (with the on/off switch) automatically installed!

Please be patient before the iPod reboots. Your screen will show nothing happening, but your device is actually working furiously to install everything.

This method will only be good for as long as the TIFF exploit is open, but it's the easiest way yet since there's no need for you to download anything.

Have anyone tried yet..? I don't undestand the part that says DO NOT VISIT THE niacin jailbreak site before, so we don't have to visite the http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com ?

[santiz]

hi...i entered the web page given(http://www.slovix.com/touchfree/jb)...my ipod closed safari and rebooted..and the apple logo was for a time..i still dont know when is it gonna start..it´s been for about 20 minutes..does somebody knows how long will it take?

Are you saying its stuck on the apple logo?

is reading ipod flash image suppose to be repetitive? it keeps redoing that part.

whao, i stopped it and re did it and it started calling it self with the number 1... and would not stopvibrating..

I am having the same problem as santiz described it. I got stucked on the apple logo for hours with the background light on. I might be overreacting, but i can't even shut it down now.

I am having the same problem as santiz described it. I got stucked on the apple logo for hours with the background light on. I might be overreacting, but i can't even shut it down now.

Have you tried holding down the Home button + Sleep Button for 10(ish) seconds? Does it restart?

[rcheah]

It does shut down after doing what you suggested, but after restarting it, it still can't get past the apple logo. Any idea?

Thanks for your help..

[rcheah]

Thanks, that was very insightful and led me to find out that you could force a restore this way: "Hold the sleep and home button until your ipod turns off. Keep holding them until the apple logo appears, then release the sleep button, but keep holding the home button. This will force a restore in itunes, your ipod will then completely restore."

[happosai]

I've got a problem jailbreaking my ipod touch. After the touchfree jailbreaking. On the ipod touch when I click the installer app it says needs to be updated. But when I try to update the installer app its says that the Package file size mismatch. And because of that I can't install any other application on the touch.

Hi,

I previously unlocked my 1.1.1 iPhone with 0.6 GUI version and for some reason, I had to restore it. But after restroing it, I am always getting error like "Open that URL" which I opened thousand times. I am trying so hard to do that. I restored my phone atleast 10 times today.

Any help or hint?

Are you connected to WiFi?

[aashu]

yes,

its connected.

[yensed]

yes,

its connected.
Is your router connected to the internet? Have you tried restarting your modem and/or router?

[jamesarm97]

I did the touchfree hack after it first came out. It worked fine except now I have this issue that is driving me nuts. Half of the time when I unlock the phone to use it after I click on SMS / Safari, etc if starts the program but is not responsive and after a few seconds it closes. After I click the icon a second time it pauses about 5 seconds then the screen locks and I have to slide to unlock again. After that it seems to work until I stop using it then it starts all over.

Has anyone else had this problem?

- James

[aashu]

Is your router connected to the internet? Have you tried restarting your modem and/or router?

I can do that, but I was able to open the URL in my iPhone and it crashed safari. I also tried to use the online version, It installed everything but did not restart the phone. I was even able to see the service signal while I was inside preferenced etc., I just need to hide the activate screen.

[lilxsleepy]

ok so today i installed touchFree on my XP and did the whole safarri url thing
and the safarri shut down and so i clicked the next step and it said "click the url" or that error that pops up. So i decided maybe i should restore my ipod then try again, but my restoring gives me an error too. So im kind of stuck here. Cant restore nor can i install touchfree. And desperate me tried going to the other site as well hoping it would work even if it clearly said, dont try if i already used the other website. so anyone. HELP? PLEASSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Okay so I have a totally different problem to everyone else. All I want is to make my iPod restore back to its original state when I first got it. I DON'T want to install AppSnapp and everything again because I want the new updates from Apple for my iPod Touch and I can't do that when I have Jail Broken the iPod because it says error when I try to update or restore in iTunes. Is the only thing that I need to do restore the iPod by using Planetbeing's method? And also with that method do you hold down the Sleep button and the Home button at the same time at the start? Please help me.

[smartin11]

**** yeah! I've finally got rid of AppSnapp and restore my iPod. What Planetbeing didn't say is that you have to have your iPod connected to your computer/mac and then do the process (Hold sleep and home buttons until blank screen then when you see the apple sign take your finger off the sleep button then keep the home button down. The 'connect iPod to computer' icon appears and on the computer it says something about restoring the iPod. Then your asked in iTunes if you want to restore and backup the files and also update your iPod.) The update is 1.1.2 [3B48b] and this fixes some **** and allows you to add events to the calendar. COOL! :D

thanks for help guys.

Hi,

I am trying to use this method, after installation and all stuff, It rings my phone instead of rebooting it. what should I do?

[bakero]

Hi

Touchfree looks great (thanks!), but I'm also having difficulties...

I'm only on Step 2, but when I visit http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com/ on safari I just get the little blue square / question mark in the top left of the screen, so safari doesn't close and I can't continue to the next step.

One of the reasons I want to jailbreak is so that I can copy my music back to the PC; as it was loaded from a different machine / old ipod I can't sync to itunes and so currently can't add anything new.

Therefore I don't want to try a restore, as that will delete all the files

Any ideas?

Cheers

So i was able to jailbreak my itouch one month ago.
And today, when i synced my music through itunes, it updated my itouch and now all the apps i had are gone.
I restored my itouch and tried jailbreaking it again, but the safari wont crash, all it shows is a blue sqaure, i refreshed it a couple of times but it wouldnt work.
So what can i do to put all my apps back?

thanks

When I visit the Slovix link posted above, my Ipod says "Error 404". Is this what is meant by "safari crashes?"

assuming this thread is for 1.1.1 just point ya ipod browser to jailbreakme.com and your sorted no PC required ;) just a wifi signal and after its done you will have 1.1.1 jailbroken and then you can move on to 1.1.2 lol

[Moosegoesgawunk]

Is there a way for me to jailbreak my Ipod Touch without downgrading to 1.1.1. I'm currently at 1.1.3., and every time I try to go to 1.1.1. I end up having to restore my Ipod.

[andybno1]

simple answer is no, you will have to downgrade to 1.1.1

[Moosegoesgawunk]

Well damn. Alrighty thank ya=) Maybe I can figure it out without having to restore it again.

[gr81mgbgt]

How come i cant download the touchfree? Its says error?

How and where can i download it?

Thanks in advanced

[Pauldib]

Can they legally sue you for this?

[Vigilante]

Yes, but it won't get anywhere. So no.

[Pauldib]

Is this then all still up to date? Because I bought my Ipod 2 days ago I dunno what 'first gen' or 'second' gen quite includes.

Ok, I have an iPhone but I recently cancelled ATT service. They tell me that as soon as I have to retore the phone i will no longer have WiFi because that won't work unless you have ATT service. So, can anyone confirm that Jailbreaking will or will not unlock WiFi?

[jamesarm97]

I upgraded and gave my son my old iphone with a deactivated sim card in it. He can still use and sync it and has wifi.

wifi is not tied to the network you can still access hotspots that have free access, also since you have cancelled your at&t account you can now unlock the iPhone to use it with any sim card/network using a program after jailbreaking called yellowsn0w..... assuming its a iPhone 3G

No.

[andybno1]

or to be more helpful than the VERY ignorant bradenwh you can download apps and games via cydia, if you google for 2.x cydia source list you can find more sources to add to cydia which will add games and apps

I would assume since he's asking how to get them on his iPod, he has not yet completed the jailbreaking process. It's pretty obvious how to get apps and games on the device after you jailbreak it, so he's probably not even gotten that far.
So basically your response helped him none, most likely.

And yes. I'm definitely the ingnorant one.

And you can also download games and apps from itunes.
But he isn't asking about itunes nor cydia.

bradenwh's answer was spot on
