Morning fellas.

My Touch battery is on its last legs for some reason, and i'm just about to send it off to Apple for a replacement. After a full charge, it barely lasts over 2 hours with the screen turned off, and refuses to turn on every morning. I know its the battery because my iPhone doesnt do this, and it never used to. :o

Anyhow, being the Apple geek i am, i jailbroke it a while back when i first got it (January), using the old methods before ZiPhone and such. Then decided to upgrade it to 1.1.4 and then used ZiPhone to do it quicker than before. When i got the Touch, it came with 1.1.2 which had to be downgraded to 1.1.1, then back up to 1.1.2 with jailbreak procedure.

What i am worried about now is the fact that the bootloader may have been changed or updated when i used ZiPhone. I'm not too clued up as to which version i originally had, and which version i possibly have now, or which version i am going to need to revert back to (possibly).

Now here's the hard part. The Wi-Fi on it is DEAD, so the only way is via the USB cable :(

Thank you! :)
 
Yeah thats the one :p

Have just installed Bootneuter on my iPhone and it shows v3.9 which i can see can be upgraded to v4.6 if i need it to. However, i guess there is no way of seeing what version is on the Touch, so i may just have to chance my luck :o

"If your phone was bought with firmware 1.1.2 or newer pre-installed, your phone has Bootloader v4.6 installed"

Although Ziphone must automatically downgrade it to v3.9 then, as that is what my iphone is currently on, and i just let that do its thing when jailbreaking, which would suggest that the Touch is too on v3.9 :(

I'm gonna take it back to where i got it from with the reciept (think indian food) and try there first. If they refuse, i'll take a chance with Apple, although they'll most likely know its been jailbroken.

What's the best way to restore? Ziphone has DFU mode, recovery mode and normal mode. I want to wipe all music and visual signs of it been jailbroken. Also, what firmware should i use? Orginally it came with 1.1.2 so i'm swayed to put that back on, but dont know if it'll make a difference with any other.

Thanks for your help.
 
Anyone confirm this?

Would love for it to be true. Would make me a little more confident sending it off :D
