Any custom 2.1 ipsw for 3g??

RobT said:
It seems the version on YouSendit isn't working for everyone. I get the error 6 as well.

The one you got from the torrent worked for you...would you be willing to post it for us to download?

i can upload it on rapidshare.com but it'll take a while cuz my upload speed sucks
 
Can anyone please be kind enough to create/upload a 2g 2.1 ipsw that does it all (jb/activate/youtube fix/unlock/auto delete bootnuetor/cydia/installer) for me... And I guess set the partition to 700mb because that's what i have on my 2.0.2... Also with the below boot/recovery logo.. direct download or torrent is fine, whichever is easier...

My iPhone Video Recorder stopped working with this update. Has anyone been successfully able to use this recorder with the new firmware (the one that takes time to encode)?

Doesn't work for me or anyone I've queried on other forums. Opens & instantly crashes. If you figure out how to fix it, please post and I'll do the same. I'm going to New Orleans and want it bad.

Thanks, I'm downloading #1 now.

Do you just use winrar to unpack all three files? Do you end up with one firmware file when it's all unpacked?

What's the mobile installation patch for, and how do you use it?

yes, download all 3 and then use winrar to unpack it. you'll end up with the ipsw file

..................................................

the mobileinstallation patch is for something else that i cant really mention on this board ^^
 
Ok I have access to a Mac, I'm on it now... PwnageTool won't run... What I did was download it direct from the rapidshare link on iphone dev's website... then after it was downloaded i opened it and it mounted it on the desktop, I opened the mount on the desktop and then moved the PwnageTool icon to the desktop, it said moving 43 mb or so, i click to run it and nothing opens... I dont use Mac, so i dont know what to do.... And I really wanna do this because on WinPWN's site the guy is busy with personal work and doesn't know when WinPWN will be released to 2.1...

I think I know what's the problem with the people getting error 6 now that's including me, it's because we haven't been Pwned previously. You can't just restore to a custom firmware if your iPhone hasn't been Pwned before.
At least, this is what I found out from this link.

I bet that's it. I'm at 2.1 now and I bet that's whats stopping me from using the custom firmware.

My phone was previously running 2.0.2 quickpwned with winpwn and it worked fine. So you might be onto something.

You guys having problems may want to revert to 2.0.2 jailbrake then update to the jailbroken 2.1 via itunes restore. Time consuming but may work.

Can we really do that ?
From 2.1 original firmware ---(jailbreak)---> 2.0.2 jailbroken custom firmware ?
Possible ?

should be possible. Download 2.0.2 do a shift restore and select 2.0.2. run quickpwn = jailbrake. Then connect to itunes 8 shift restore again and select 2.1 that bushido posted and restore.

This worked perfect for me!

Just to confirm, legit ATT sub here....was upgrading from Jailbroke 3G 2.0 firmware. Used iTunes 8 in Win XP, did a full backup of my phone (deleted old backup, let it sync+backup, 2 hoursish).....then did Shift+Restore, selected that Custom_Restore file, in a few mins my phone was ready to go 🙂 (Did not enter DFU mode)

Used TotalCommander + Tpot to drop in patched MobileInstallation file...

rebooted phone, let it sync all my music, videos, and appz....

everything works great. Much better reception (although, I haven't done testing, the bars went from 1 bar of 3G service to 4 bars of 3G service in my house.....), hopefully it's true reception and not just graphical.

iPhone seems to 'backup' REALLY fast now...30 secs at the most.

Thanks for this!

I have an iPhone 2g on Vista.

Here is the run down on how I am in this position:

ZiPhone (don't every use this... omg!)

I use it and it killed my EDGE, WiFi and Bluetooth.

I downgraded to 1.1.4 after using ZiPhone for 2.0 (originally a 1.0.2 iPhone 2g). I went straight to 2.1 ipsw. I figure I am doing something wrong, but this phone is for my co-worker and I need it unlocked. I can't activate. So could someone help this learning newb? I am up this late and need to be at work soon to give this device to a co-worker. 🙁


Thanks in advance,
