Anything good about firmware 2.0? I'm still feeling a bit reluctant to upgrade the firmware.

finally they release it, thanks god haha, anybody got mac, i want to borrow la, no money to buy mac, can use display mac at the shop lol

better wait for it to have a stable release. nothing is perfect when it first release. some said firmware 2.0 have some bug such as lag when typing a msg and so on. u can search for it even youtube can provide u sufficient information. not to forget about the latest itunes bug as dear string said that backup system is bug.

The backup system works fine, it is how it is implemented that is flawed. You only want to back up your iPhone at certain times, for example, when you've done installing lots of apps from AppStore. The backup in iTunes 7.7 however, backs it up ALL THE TIME, even when all you want to do is syncing it.

So this Jailbreak, Unlock, and ACTIVATE 1st Gen 2.0 iPhones? I'm feeling lucky I have not reformatted my Hackintosh partition yet

Yes..it will unlock etc but f you’re looking for apps, they aren’t there yet. Installer isn’t even available. Cydia is but no apps yet. There is OpenSSH so far. Gotta wait until Installer and some apps are ported over to 2.0. Hopefully soon.

yeah, i read that part also... Pwnage works only with Cydia? and when they try to install Installer.app they get an error hehe... Wait for a better release

Ah ok... I haven't been updating myself for the past 2-3 days. Been busy (and angry) catching up with the Anwar's case

So Installer is not up and running yet on 2.0. They are just too many apps I'll be missing. Probably should wait for them to be ported 1st. And since that my debit card application is not processed yet, maybe i should hold on to it a lil. Thank you.

"Not button to switch off EDGE"?

Does this mean you cannot turn off EDGE, or the button to do so isn't available? If this statement is talking about BossPref's EDGE flipswitch button, you can simply turn off EDGE by entering incorrent details in the "Network" section, that should stop it from using any EDGE network you've subscribed to.

If this means that I cannot turn off EDGE, then screw that, I'm holding it off. I dont want another episode of crazy phone bills to happen again.

For those who want to upgrade the 1st gen iphone to 2.0 pls make sure you've d/l the firmware directly fr the itunes otherwise the firmware wont be recognize by pwnage tool.

The iPhone1,2_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw is recognize only by selecting 3G iphone in Pwnage Tool.


Happy Hacking

Mmmm .... gonna wait for Apple to release the fix first with FW2.0.1 before upgrading. If not have to restore again after the release. One more thing that made me wait is the availability of essential apps from Installer/Cydia. Apps from AppStore are tempting but living without some of the apps from Installer/Cydia (i.e iSMS, iLog, MXTube, Docs, Summerboard, Customize etc etc) would be a bit ... errr ... boring (maybe not the best choice of word). With the new firmware (and maybe file structure or framework), i need to re-learn the system inner working so can mod and mod and mod the phone summore.

Pwnage option for Windows Users..check the link.

i downloading now!!!

Just some FYI for those who are nervous about upgrading. I just upgraded my 8GB iPhone 2.5G. For some reason I lost like 200MB of storage space. But perhaps that is due to the new firmware version itself. Now I have 7.08GB total space instead of 7.27 which I had before. Oh well at least I can use the official free apps like remote

thanks for the info should or shouldnt i lol

That's not gonna be much to play with as in customizing your phone etc but you can try out the AppStore applications.

I think i should just post a new topic on the Option Pwnage for windows user for easy finding since many are windows base OS.
