iPhone 2.0 Firmware (5A347) Available Early

Be Careful.

I think I did just bricked mine. It flaked out in the middle on me. Now my iphone will only show the connect to itunes logo but itunes wont recognise that it is plugged in. I have tried cycling the power and no change. Tried reopening itunes and no change.

Any thoughts?

put your iphone into DFU mode and it will force a restore.

dont worry you didnt brick your phone
 
IT WORKS IT WORKS HAHAHAHAHA


FYI ... Earlier on in the year I was stupid and used bittorrent to download a developer version of the 2.0 Beta. It took me about 6 hours to downgrade it back to 1.1.4 after the purple screen of death and I was stuck with the newer baseband. I can confirm that for those of you who were stupid like me and couldn't wait, you should have no trouble updating to the *official* 2.0 software.
 
Trying this on 1.1.4 ZiPhone jailbroken/activated/unlocked iPhone

Its at the 'updating iPhone firmware' stage.

Fingers (tightly) crossed.
 
Works like a charm, thanks! :D


just to clarify, you used pwnage on it, it worked, all is running well, and 'it' being an iphone that is not in offical contract!??! so you have an unlocked iphone on 2.0?


if so that is ace and im doing it when i get home
 
Unlocked update anyone?

I was wondering if anyone here attempted an unlock after the successful upgrade.

moreover... Has anyone upgraded from a 1.1.4 unlocked iPhone to 2.0?

If updated successfully to 2.0 I would like to know if it is possible to unlock it (using something like ZiPhone).

Thanks a lot.
 
I'm doing something particularly silly... I'm downloading it, but I'm too cautious to install it. Even though I really want it.

Oh, go with the serendipity brought him back part of the cat story. I figure, it's Apple software, it's publicly available on Apple's servers, it might inadvertently, or even by design, brick jailbroken/unlocked iPhones, but mine is neither. So it could freeze my iPhone to the point I have to do a full restore, but a full restore will do it. Besides, since it's 1,2 designated, not 1,1 as were the 2.0 betas and all previous iPhone firmware, it IS gold master, it IS what will ship on 3G iPhones, meaning it almost certainly will be the version released to the world. So, even if it's glitchy, they'll have to fix it, and the fixed version will trigger another update to the latest bug-fixed version. And even if it doesn't, if for some bizarre reason far behind the realm of acceptable version control, they don't increment versions between the buggy "pre-release" version and the fixed version, all you have to do is download the fixed version and do a manual install from iTunes and downloading iPhone firmware and doing a manual install from iTunes is Apple-supported procedure for people who can't get the auto-updater to work or need to update their iPhones offline.

Seriously, there are bound to be some bugs anyway, so you'll see a 2.1 or 2.01 firmware release, probably, anyway. Unless you like have clients calling all day, I'd go for it. I'm at home with regular phone to use, so I just can't wait kids.

Just need MobileMe to come back online. I wonder since they took down MobileMe temporarily if push mail will still work to my iPhone, even though the MobileMe web interface is down -- wonder if it requires I turn push on, or it's on by default.
 
It worked!!!!!!!!

Zoiks.. here I go..

Past the point of no return - I hope Zibri wasn't right - but I'm betting by noon tomorrow that either Dev Team or Zibri cracks the nut and we'll all be jailbroken again...
 
I keep getting "Decompression Failed" after a while when I trying downloading the 2.0 update... it won't fully download, anybody else getting this response? Plus my speeds are super super super slow since the Apple servers are getting slammed...

What is DFU? If I hold the power button down it will turn off but on power back on it shows the apple logo then right back to the connect to itunes graphic.

I would totally not jailbreak or unlock v2.0, 3G or EDGE model, with the old breaks/unlocks until the devs of those utils certify they work. Totally not. In fact, also, I would totally not update a jailbroken/unlocked iPhone to v2.0 until the devs clear the update works.
 
Safari unzips automatically. However it does put the original ZIP download in your trash. So if you do download it. Check your trash. Take it out and delete the ".zip" at the end and you are good to go.

Have a Jailbroken iPhone. Ain't touchin' it till someone else does! Anyone going to be brave???

I used Firefox ;)

Now is on "Restoring iPhone firmware..."
 
Just upgraded!!

Upgraded to 2.0 and just waiting to sync. Ive noticed while Im waiting that the solid blue square for nor data connection now has a hole in the centre. Just a small change but one that makes me giddy somehow??!!1:rolleyes:

I just downloaded mine is less then 5 mins. :) Hopefully this works. <crosses fingers>>
 
Why isn't this working for me?

Have iTunes 7.7
Downloaded the .ipsw file (using FF3 on Win XP)
Clicked the file once downloaded
iTunes popped up and I clicked restore
Went through the motions
Still on firmware 1.1.4

What am I doing wrong?

cheers
 
thank you robbietherabit for telling me to look in the trash :D

It's restoring right now and can't wait to us the wonderful apps already downloaded !!

Same here. Server slam, probably won't finish the download. Time outs. Keep trying. Don't use the decomp failed version even if for some reason it winds up decomp'ing okay once.
