iPod touch Took the plunge! (With Video)

[thesdx]

Right now, I'm in the process of jailbreaking my iTouch! I finally sucked it up, and took the plunge. Right now, I'm on step 7 "getfile /dev/rdisk0s1 iphonefs/rdisk0s1 314572800". So far, so good. If everything works, I'll be posting a video of all the (working) iPhone apps, and Installer.app.

UPDATE: All of the iPhone apps are now on the iPod Touch! Here's a video:

G'luck, sir. I'm going to try this out if I have time this evening, otherwise tomorrow.

some encouraging words. . .

Here is a common problem I am seeing EVERYWHERE:

People read step 1, then perform step 1. Step 2, perform. . etc.

A piece of advice. Read the entire guide, download all the linked software, if you encounter a command you are unfamiliar with and aren't sure of the syntax or what said command does: GOOGLE IT until your eyes bleed from all the reading you have done.

It doesn't make a lick of sense to endanger your toys and personal sanity by jumping into a process you are unsure of.

Read carefully and be patient, you'll be fine.

Don't forget if you get stuck just restore by having the iPt connected to your computer and iTunes open then HOLD DOWN BOTH SLEEP AND HOME, the screen will flash, the iPod will shut off, then RELEASE SLEEP BUT STILL HOLD HOME. iTunes will then say, "0h hai you have an ipt connected in restore mode please be hitting restore and wait kthxbai"

It will restore and keep 1.1.1 and you can either sync or try again.

UPDATE: Installer.app is now working! I'll be posting pictures as soon as I get all the apps on there.

Its as if it was made for hacking! I LOVE THIS THING! But how do you arrange icons for the touch?

 

[thesdx]

Ok, I've gotton all of the iPhone apps on! I also made a video that should be on YouTube shortly.
