iPhone 2.0 firmware available now

I have a quick question.

I have an original iPhone running jailbroken 2.0, how do I do the unlock? I stuck my orange sim in but it doesn't work.

Thanks

EDIT - I'm actually a bit confused, when I jailbroke my touch previously, it had installer, I assume I've jailbroken this one but have something called Cydia!

I'm a bit of a noob so can some one explain?

For those who are getting the DFU fail message in PwnageTool after it has finished creating the IPSW, you'll need to enter the following command in Terminal:

mkdir ~/Library/iTunes/"Device Support"

If you already have the IPSW created and closed PwnageTool, just follow these instructions to get your iPhone into DFU mode. You don't really need fix the PwnageTool problem as it only tells how to do it yourself and confirms whether your iPhone is in DFU mode :)
 
Just upgraded mine. Failed first time with a lovely "unknown error", but I just plugged the phone back in and restored again with no problems.

It's a bit wierd going from 4 pages of things on the home screen to 1 :p

The iTunes backup/restore thing worked nicely though.. all my contacts, texts etc are all there.
 
Gunna wait for iLiberty+ and installer before I jump, my phone is perfect right now so waiting a bit longer for a smooth transition isn't a problem
 
im going to upgrade a bit later today when i get a spare min. At the moment ive got 1.1.4 ziphoned + boot neuter. should i restore to 2.0 via itunes before i pwn or just go straight ahead and pwn?
 
Yep, 1.1.4 to 2.0.. no problems so far.

The only annoyance is how poop the Exchange calendar sync is. Basically if you want youe Exchange calendar synced, you can't also have a personal calendar and vice versa.. unless.. you buy MobileMe :(

I'd quite like my work calendar to sit in "work" and my personal one to sit in "home" without wiping anything.. hardly a complicated thing to want to setup!

That is where I am ATM too, i don't know how I should go about this, a restore sounds the best way, I don't however have the original sim :(
 
Here are the steps I took; (TAKEN FROM IPHONE DEV BLOG)

1. I upgraded to Itunes 7.7

2. Connected my iphone. It deteced the iphone and asked for an upgrade, I just cliked download only. This is how I got the original firmware form apple :)Then disconnected iphone just after the download started.

3. Before opening the pwnagetool I put my iphone in dfu mode. I tried at least 4 times to do that. The trick was to hold down the power and home botton wait until it restarts. Then pluck it into the dock wait for ten seconds during the apple logo and then release it . It is totally black but itunes recognized it as in recovery. This is the dfu we need.

4. I did not choose the expert mode. Chosed iphone 1g . It had found the restore firmware that itunes had already downloaded. Asked me for the bootloaders. I browsed both of them respectively and then it created the custom ipws.

5.Clicked next and it recognized the dfu but asked for shutdown. I had problem here before, It said that it can not put the device in dfu mode. This time it detected and asked for a shutdown. I just pressed both power and home button until it restarted. Then watch for the screen. It tells you when to release the power button and when to release home button. Then it was ok. My iphone was ready to be restored with the custom ipws. The tool gave a message everything ok and i must just close pwnagetool and use itunes.

6. I didn't do anything to iphone just left it where it was in dfu mode. Itunes had already gave the message that it needs to restore my iphone. I just said ok. The restore screen was in front of me. Just pressed alt button on the keyboard and while pressing it i clicked restore, and I showed itunes gently my custom ipws. It restored it successfully.

7. After that the phone rebooted, bootneutral was opened automatically , first it neutral the boot and then flashed the baseband. All was automatic. Then after the last reboot, there it was jailbroken and unlocked with all features working.

I took these steps and it is working flawlessly.
 
If it's already pwned you just need to make a new firmware and restore in iTunes. If you haven't already pwned and have used some other software written by some talentless ripoff merchant then you'll need to do the pwnage side. You can either use the old pwnage and pwn 1.1.4, then just make the firmware in 2.0, or upgrade to 2.0 in iTunes, pwn with the new pwnage (which only supports 2.0) then restore the custom firmware in iTunes.

The latter is probaby easiest, the whole process shouldn't take more than 20-40 mins including getting all the settings/music/etc back on.

Why would you need it? iTunes will recognise that there is an invalid SIM present after FW2.0 is applied but it won't take any action because of it.

I just did mine:

  • iPhone with FW1.1.3, previously unlocked using ZiPhone (O2 PAYG SIM).
  • Upgraded to FW2.0 using iTunes (figured it was better to get it in to a more standard state).
  • Created the patched FW2.0 file using PwnageTool.
  • Put the iPhone in to DFU mode (PwnageTool instructs how to do this).
  • Used iTunes to apply my patched FW2.0.
  • All working fine!

Cool, I might pluck up the courage tonight to try it :p :o:o

Edit: What bootloader did you start with, 3.9 or 4.6 and if it was 3.9 did you up 4.6?
