I have the iphonelinux penguin and cant get it off. Apple says my phone has a virus. I used ipwn and now when the phone boots on, all I have is that penguin. Ive tried restoring it, apple has tried restoring it, but nothing. Any suggestions?

is there any program that can just back up an Iphone? I tried copying everything using WinSCP, but it wouldn’t work. I want to back up all my programs AND all the info I put into them. Even if Winpwn was a full version and backed-up all of my programs, it still might not get all of my to-do lists, sources, categories, etc.. Any suggestions?

Yup it stays unlocked because you had used something else previously, to unlock phone which does not get changed when yor do a fresh restore from Itunes.

One thing though to note for people Youtube will not work, so must add the Youtube 1.1.4 activation fix.

I completely understand that it is illegal right now and that wouldn’t deter me from changing to firmware 2.0. I don’t plan on doing it at all unless I see benefits, but I still don’t see any reason to do it. Quite happy with 1.1.4

So it is ILLEGAL? to have 2.0? or just against warranty?
I wouldn’t think it illegal to use if they put it out there for everyone to use. I’ve recieved the SDK notifications and all that, but I don’t have an apple to play with it…so I haven’t downloaded it. If I am correct, the 2.0 comes with the SDK, which they published for just about anyone to use.

Make sure your in recovery mode and not DFU mode when restoring in Itunes. Myself I used Winpwn on my phone with custom 1.1.4 firmware, for one the bootlogos, second because the Winpwn method of jailbreaking phone is probably safest method out there. As well I wanted to take my BL and flash it back uptoo 4.6 from 3.9.
