2.0.1 Unlock and Activation - Thanks will be given!

Ok so the problem is, I have a 1.1.4 iPhone at the present. It was originally a 1.1.2 and I used Ziphone to unlock and activate to 1.1.4 a while ago. I want to upgrade to 2.0.1 but I would like some clarification on the activation and jailbreak. Will I be able to upgrade to 2.0.1 on my 1st generation 1.1.4 iPhone, jailbreak it and remain unlocked? Or is there something I need to use such as Winpwn or something?

My apparent modem firmware is : 04.04.05_G.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks will be given!

The ONLY way to unlock/jailbreak 2.0.1 is with pwnage/winpwn/quickpwn. You have to build a custom firmware with one of these tools and use iTunes to restore. After that you will have to re-install all the apps.
__________________
===========================================

DFU Restore Mode:
1. Boot phone 2. Hold Power + Home until the screen goes BLACK 3. Continue to hold home and let go of power 4. Plug into iTunes (screen should still be BLACK) 5. Within 20 seconds it should come up in recovery mode 6. Let go of Home and hit RESTORE in iTunes.

Firmware 2.0 DFU: 1. Power phone OFF. 2. Hold power + home for 10 seconds. 3. Let go of power and continue to hold home until iTunes finds the phone.

Well that didn't work at all.

I'm now constantly stuck on recovery mode when i plug my iPhone into the computer and I can't downgrade to 1.1.4 as it gives me error code 20. I tried using iTunes 7.5 but it done the same. I am currently on 2.0.1 firmware I believe but have no idea of checking as the damn iPhone doesn't boot up and only goes into recovery mode. I tried using QuickPwn but I can't follow the instructions because if I turn it off it automatically comes back on into recovery mode.

My question is this, if I decide to restore to clean firmware 2.0.1 can I then downgrade again cleanly or even use QuickPwn to jailbreak the iPhone?

yes
you can always downgrade to a lower fw
unless your on a 3G iphone the lowest you can go on that is 2.0
and once your on a clean fw you can then go threw the process of using Quickpwn to jailbreak it

Finally after a bit of fiddling about, I managed to restore to 2.0.1 and then QuickPwn and then use WinPwn. I really was worrying about my iPhone haha

Ah well, thanks anyway guys!

So if I am on the 1.02 firmware on a 1st gen iphone, which is already unlocked using Anysim and my modem firmware is 3.14.08_G. If I want to upgrade straight to 2.01 firmware, do I need to do the re-virginize step first? Or I can use DFU mode to flash the 2.01 firmware directly on top of it? Please help, thank you.

I did this, and my iPhone is upgraded to 2.0.1, but my SIM card is now locked. I've rerun the quickpwn software 3 times and it's still locked. How do i get the SIM unlocked again so it will recognize T-Mobile?
