Pwning 2.0 On Windows [Guide/Troubleshooting]

[SiLeNtKiLLa]

Worked for me... Also if you get error 1601... just unplug the iPhone while still in DFU mode, plug it back in, if screen turns WHITE, restore with custom firmware.... You are now good to go.

I tried all this and still couldn't get it to work...I kept getting error message 1600 at the end

and the directions say:
If you get Error 1600 from iTunes try: mkdir “~/Library/iTunes/Device Support” ; if that directory already exists, remove any files in it.

and I have no idea how to do that ^^^

Can anyone help?

is my IPHONE supposed to be turned on or turned off when I put it into DFU mode?

Cause when its on and I try what it tells me (10 seconds then take away power button and so on) it never does a damn thing

I'm now getting error 1602?????

[titeo]

do i need the 1.1.4 fw file? or am i good to go with just iPwn and the 2.0 custom fw?

sorry for all these repetitive questions.

THANK GOD IT WORKED!!!!!

shaileshashar- Thank you so much. You were right. Didn't put it into DFU mode, just opened up ITUNES and hit shift+restore and it did it all on its on. At first after everything changed over it didn't look like it was going to be unlocked, but sure enough everything turned out just fine.

Thanks for the guide to doing this. I'm stoked. 5.5 hours later after first starting all this I'm finally done and can go to bed

It has slightly better instructions and the DFU method they have is easier too...

Thanks vomer for the link.

thanks, but i have a question. I have a 1st gen iphone jailbroken, activated, unlocked on 1.1.4 using ziphone. Do i follow all the steps highlighted or can i skip the unlock steps and just restore to firmware 2.0. as the iphone is already jailbroken, activated, unlocked . thanks

Anyone know if you have to be on 1.1.4, or will it work the same from 1.1.3?

[DevilToster]

cool!!!!!! its works! lol its flashed be him self i didnt touch anything it moved by him self and falshed baseband everything thats so cool!!!!!!!!!!

[shikage]

Sweet! After several tries and a near heartattack when my phone got stuck in DFU at one point I finally got this to work.

I had a 1st Gen iPhone running 1.1.4 firmware. I used Winpwn to pwn the phone and install 1.1.4 with Bootneuter, updated to 4.9BL and unlocking the Baseband.

The method that worked for me was pretty simple too. No DFU mode at all. Just plug the phone in, go to iTune and shift-click Restore. Select the custom firmware (I used the one from the original post) and let it restore as normal.

Everytime I tried from DFU I got the error 1601 or 1602. Perhaps I was not properly in DFU mode but my screen was black and iTunes came up saying it needed to update the device as one would expect. Either way the DFU seems unnecessary and more complicated.

You can do it from 1.1.3. The only thing that matters is that your phone is pWNed/winpWNed first!
