Way back when I bought my iphone when the firmware was 1.0, then I updated to 1.02 and unlocked it via anysim (i used this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ABh2WcmlLzQ).

Everything worked fine for a really long time until recently when installer.app refused to boot, which was really anoying cause I wanted to remove some 3rd party applications. Also, I wanted the itunes remote app so I decided to use ziphone to upgrade to 1.4, jailbreak, and unlock. So thats what I did except it didn't work, and after upgrading my phone was no longer unlocked and I'm not even sure if the firmware was properlly updated. Then i tried restoring it in itunes with the 1.02 firmware that I had been using for forever but ofcourse that failed cause of the burchered 1.4 ziphone put on it.

Anyways, if someone could instruct me how to get this thing working, jailbroken, and unlocked again it would be much appreciated. I don't particularly care what firmware it has as long as it works. And also i really would like to use it as a remote for itunes. So how exactly does that work? Is it a default program in 2.0? And I'm not really interested in registering for the apple store, so would it be possible to add the app via installer if I can get that working again.

thanks in advance!
