    Mmmm, Seeing that error bootneuter showed I’m still not too convinced in using winpwn.

    100% agree. That error scares me at this point. Worse possible scenerio, iphone jailbroken, unlock runs into problems. I will wait a little bit longer.. Again, no rush… no installer yet.

    EXCELLENT iPhone 2.0 works
    Ignore the bootneuter ERRoR happened 2 me fink it might be a buggy bootneuter becuase i have unlocked it twice and it happened twice. enjoy it wonderful software thankz 2 dev team and apple iphone school 4 video!!

  2. Justin on July 25th, 2008 7:39 pm:

    How can you be sure that your phone was unlocked? There was an error flashing the baseband, and you only tested it with an AT&T SIM.

    Douglas on July 25th, 2008 7:43 pm:

    Because it didn’t work before with that SIM.

    Mike Zappa on July 25th, 2008 10:13 pm:

    Doug, can you get your hands on a T-mobile sim and stick it in there for us? Also Can you tell us if the Wifi is working? You didnt seem to be to interested in that. Ive heard Wifi is having issues

    Douglas on July 26th, 2008 12:11 am:

    Wifi is definatly working, this is how we have installed stuff since then. Does T-Mobile have a card I can get without signing a contract? If so, we’ll try it out!

    Nick on July 26th, 2008 8:49 am:

    get a pay as you go phone and take out the sim

    Mike Zappa on July 26th, 2008 7:01 pm:

    You can walk in any T-mobile store and ask for one. They dont mind handing them out at no cost.

    sanket on July 26th, 2008 8:44 pm:

    Sorry, Revver wasn’t cooperating. Not sure if Vimeo has a quicktime link…

  6. bigmcq77 on July 25th, 2008 10:19 pm:

    the reason the search online wasn’t available was because it failed to load custom images. Sometimes that happens. It also failed to load custom payloads…Its shown in the WinPwn output thingy screen

    Douglas, so far this is the best unlocking video tutorial i have ever seen! thank you for taking the time to do such an excellent one. :)

    Douglas on July 26th, 2008 12:14 am:

    Thanks, It would have been better if the screen capture program would have worked better. We’re trying to figure out how to do screen capture on the computer better.

    you can use fraps

  9. SeijinZero on July 25th, 2008 11:37 pm:

    how hard is it for the developers to update the installer apps? how long do you think it will be before we start seeing installer and a bunch of apps ready? weeks? months? Also, what happens if a 2.1 firmware is released? would that be a bump in th road, or would everyone have to start over from scratch? so excited! I feel like a kid before christmas!

    [Reply]

    Douglas on July 26th, 2008 12:15 am:

    I’d say around a month from when the jailbreak was released. That’s a guess based on the past. I’m sure some developers have moved to the app store so you probably won’t see any support from them for Installer.

    As for 2.1, This will probably put a bump in the road. I’m hearing even current App Store apps may need some re-writing, but we’ll see.

  10. Spork on July 26th, 2008 1:16 am:

    Hey thanks for the video instructions. Watching someone doing the procedure step by step is so much better than reading it. I have and iPod Touch on jailbroken 1.1.4 and an iPhone 3G. I’m sticking to 1.1.4 on my ipod for now cause I have a few apps on there that I can’t get on 2.0. But have you any updates on the unlocking option on the 3G? Will it be an update for winpwn 2.0? Cause that’s what I’m really waiting for. Thanks again.

  11. Coolmike on July 26th, 2008 3:16 am:

    Hey Doug, first of all thank you for this video!!! I’ve followed the instructions step by step and I’ve my 2G iPhone running Iphone firmware 2.0 now, but I also got the same Bootneuter Error so I would like to know how bad is that or what does that means, I haven’t had the chance to fully test my iPhone because right now I am restoring my info. Any further information about this will be really appreaciated. Thank you!!!

  12. Galicius on July 26th, 2008 4:43 am:

    You are mean.Take a look at the date on the screen of the iphone.
    9.11 AM!!!

  13. mattyb123 on July 26th, 2008 5:34 am:

    I noticed under the Advanced tab that you had Autodelete Bootneuter app checked, that is why Bootneuter had gone. Also if I try this will it be best to restore in iTunes to 2.0 (I’m on 1.1.4 and my iPhone is fake activated) or will I just go straight for restoring with the custom 2.0 FW.

    Cykron on July 26th, 2008 5:42 am:

    I’d like to know that too, will I keep my notes and sms btw? I have them backed up with TimeCapsule, but that’s on 1.1.4…?

    Cykron on July 26th, 2008 6:01 am:

    And another thing why not choose to upgrade BL to 4.6? And what does the Wipe option mean?

    Sorry for all these questions, but I don’t want to regret anything :p

    Moviecouple on July 26th, 2008 10:40 am:

    I would like to know these answers too. I have a 2G that is on 1.14 and a 3G that I am going to keep stock.

    I will then use my 2G to mess around with. It is my backup phone now, but want to make sure that I don’t destroy it in any way.

    Moviecouple on July 26th, 2008 10:44 am:

    Forgot to ask one questions though. If I pwnage iTunes with this… can I still use iTunes with my stock 3G phone with no problems or worries?

    Cykron on July 27th, 2008 1:15 am:

    Well I couldn’t wait any longer so I did it :p I just upgraded from 1.1.4 to the custom 2.0 with only 1 problem that I couldn’t do the YouTube fix, it gave an error every time when building ispw :s

    About the BL, I did upgrade to 4.6, but it flashed automatically to 3.9 :p best thing is that iTunes restored all my info! All my sms, notes,…

  14. Ed Richards on July 26th, 2008 8:18 am:

    I have an iPod Touch 2.0 and I am running the latest version of winpwn (2.0.0.3) I have built the custom firmware and pwned iTunes fine.When I hold shift and click Restore and choose the firmware everything goes fine. It extracts the software fine but then when its preparing for restore unkown error 6 occurs. Any ideas. My iPod is in recovery mode. I put it into DFU and it had the connect to iTunes logo on it.
    Help would be greatly appriciated!

    asa on July 26th, 2008 9:56 am:

    Ed,
    Are u using iTunes 7.7?

    Ed Richards on July 27th, 2008 4:01 pm:

    All has been resolved. Turns out I wasn’t putting it into DFU mode only recovery mode. I thought they were the same thing! I am writing this from mi jailbroken iPod touch!

  15. Terryl on July 26th, 2008 11:07 am:

    hey doug how do u get an 3g iphone without it being under contract and my next question is what other providers offer 3g network

    [Reply]

    Douglas on July 26th, 2008 11:48 am:

    In the US? You can’t get one without contract. And there are no other providers in the US than AT&T.

  16. Michelle on July 26th, 2008 3:16 pm:

    Help… When I get to the Advanced stage, it says my bootloader files are both missing. I tried to download then to my desktop and for some reason they are not being recognized… What do I do?

    Hi Doug,

    Thank you for your video demo. I would love to try WinPwn. But before pushing through, I would like to know if this will work with my 1st gen iPhone, 8G, jailbroke and unlocked to 1.1.4FW using ZiPhone 2.5. So as of now, I still don’t have my custom ipsw and have not pwned my iPhone. How should I proceed with this? Thanks for the help Doug. Appreciate appleiphoneschool very much!

  19. phil on July 27th, 2008 12:25 am:

    i do everything right, i have a 8g, i download the custom firmware off your firmware section, i browse ipsw, click the firmware i downloaded at your site, then create a custom with builder- ipsw, then i click ipwner, open itunes, shift click, click the custom firmware i made with ipsw builder, it extracts, but in the end it says ERROR 6

  30. kamoi on August 6th, 2008 4:38 pm:

    hey i did everything up untill the point where i put my phone in dfu mode. i try to do the restore & it gives me an unknown error (1403).. can anyone please help me with this?

    [Reply]

  31. bdmfckr on August 8th, 2008 4:31 pm:

    I had that error 6 once also.. I got that error because I put my phone to dfu mode ( screen was not black.. had that cable and globe on it)

    be sure you screen is black when flash your phone (press power button and home button together and keep them pressed 10 seconds then release the power button, but keep home button pressed 10 seconds more, then release it.. your computer should now recognize ipod iphone.. ETC.. )

  32. Kiani on September 18th, 2008 10:34 pm:

    If you are using Windows then just download Quickpwn and it has its own prompt box that tells you to hit enter when you are ready for the next step….even my 11yr old little cousin know how to do it….
