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...


But can it be unlocked?? I can wait for it to be jailbroken, but not for it to be unlocked...

Let me know, please, if someone managed to "restore" 2.0 and unlock it :) Thanks a lot
 
ugh

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.

I think is too early, you need to wait that they found a new way to unlocked it. it's just been out so it takes time.
 
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

hold down option key while clicking update, select the ipsw file
 
Ugh, I can't resist!! :p

Here goes nothing... so far so good... :eek:

UPDATE: IT WORKS!!! I'm so excited!!! :D
 
installing this thing right now.....


i have to say these past few hours (night really) have been CRAZY!
and i have a feeling it won't end soon..

I don't plan on going to bed until Friday 1PM.. I want to watch the TWiT live coverage, anybody else planning to do the same?
 
Don't Forget to Sync BEFORE you update your phone to the 2.0 software! I lost a few calendar entries and a bunch of emails, but its OK because I have those elsewhere...

it restores automaticaly make sure that you use a file which ends by .ipsw only! Click on that and normally itunes will start doing everything by itself
 
It worked, waiting for everything to sync back to the iPhone. Sadly, I will have to do this all again tomorrow when I get my 3G iPhone... or will I?

Yes. I will.

dont be cheep its 10 bucks for crying outloud youll be using some of that to get games anyway get the update and dont look back ;)

I'm not being cheap... I'm getting a 3G iPhone tomorrow. I got a Mac Pro and the Touch came with it, and I'm still gonna get 2.0 no matter what. However, if this was a free workaround, which I see its not, I would rather get it free than spend money that doesn't need to be spent.
 
Im most concerned with the dev team getting on this to enable unlocking, hopefully within the first week. I know I'll be donating for a great solution like ZiPhone.
