“i have it running on an ipod touch if you plug it into itunes it gives you the option to upgrade for 10$ and it worked fine”

Question! If I were to manually download the 2.0 firmware (i have an iPod Touch) and were to restore it using the 2.0 firmware, would I get all the new features and apps? I remember when restoring from some other firmware to 1.1.4, I didn’t get the mail, maps etc. applications. And yes, I know if I were to upgrade, I would lose the jailbreak.

I have a first generation iPhone which I pwned using the pwnage tool, using the new release 1.0.0.3 RC1, which was supposed to solve that online logos problem that we get when we try to install certain logos yet instead we get an error message saying that logos have to be less than 100 kb, unfortunately the problem is still up and well.

So anyhow, I created a custom-made .ipsw file, which is the extension of the iphone update file, using the original 1.14 restore file you can get it here from the firmware page, and you can also find it under your windows, any version of windows vista or xp, go to:
Documents and Settings=>your username=>applicationdata=>applecomputer=>iTunes=>iphonesoftwareupdates there you will find files that end with .ipsw extension and the update number for example 1.14 is labelled like this:
iPhone1,1_1.1.4_4A102_Restore.ipsw
and update 2.0 is labelled like this:
iPhone1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw

I know that the above is old news for many but I thought it might help. Now, when I heard that firmware update 2.0 was released I downloaded through iTunes, and before that I have already upgraded iTunes 7.5 to iTunes 7.7. at this step I stopped, because I wanted to know a few things:

1. if I upgraded my iPhone from 1.14 to 2.0 will its pwned stated become nulled? I mean will I have a phone that is neither jailbroken or activated? of course let me enlighten you and say and you probably guessed by now I’m not using the ill-fated AT&T not to mention I don’t live in the states, so I need to have this phone globally usable. so will upgraded a pwned first generation iPhone render it unusable? in my opinion I think not, but waiting for the okay from someone who have already tried that.

2. Second what scared me more, is the unbelievable number of repositories and apps I added to my custom made firmware file based on the 1.14. I can’t believe I will be able to live without that..not to mention, the pwnage tool does not recognize the new firmware update. I mean try this: open your pwnage tool and then point to firmware update file 2.0 and it will tell you unknow file, so in this case we can not build a custom firmware file based on firmware 2.0, I guesss this pwnage tool was built to deal with firmware 1.14 and this means we’ll have to wait for pawn tool 2.0. Sorry if I seem bit slow on this, but I love being sure of what I know.

thanks in advance but not payable on death

Thanks for leading the way! Would have sucked to have upgraded because of misleading info!!
