try to do it again, if u do it properly, i.e. through DFU, ur iphone should be unlock afaik

Use iTunes to upgrade to 2.0. It will be locked thereafter. That is what happened to me. Then disconnect the iPhone start pwnage 2.0 and run it to create a customised IPSW for your iPhone and then when it asks, plug in your iPhone and follow the instructions. This is how I did it and it fixed my iPhone. Remember to say no if it asks if you have pwned your iPhone before.

hope this helps

Ok so before i take the plunge, i want to clarify some stuff:

1. I can now UNLOCK, ACTIVATE and JAILBREAK 2.0
2. There is no Installer yet, but Cydia is available
3. No 3rd party application is compatible with 2.0 yet

Correct me if any of the things i mentioned above is not right.

- Regarding the iTunes store. Debit card should, by right, is accepted?
- Are there any differences between Malaysian iTunes AppStore and the US one?

- I don't think i'll be buying movies and music, so only the AppStore matters to me. But anyway, if I were to buy movies and music, can I switch to US Store (also changed my billing address to Cupertino as suggested by Stringfellow) but still use my Malaysian debit card?

everything is working fine, although cydia itself is not stable while installing item from there, it still work after a restart
3G is working fine (a few dollars gone again, to test a page [google.com=3.2mb?] =.=, stupid Vodafone NZ)
wifi is working fine (ssh works perfectly too)
txt-ing still works,
calling still works.

a few screen shots
I have changed a few icons

NES, the only application that attracts me in cydia atm, ntg much for iPhone 2.0 yet

ssh-ing a few song into taptap revenge it works as well



i have transfer more dictionary database in the weDict from appstore as well

edit: taptap revenge and dictionary seems to stop working after syncing and restarting the phone, but a reinstall will get them to work again, without the additional stuff that I put in earlier.....

hmmm i'm not sure, if this is at all relevant, but when i purchase songs over the iphone's itunes store, i do realise that you will need a fairly stable and strong wifi signal to complete the both the transaction and download.

ya i did. Used the custom firmware and pawnage tool. Everything ok, but cant downlaod apps for iphone...

Finally ... Done ! Thank you for this information after tried 2 times

@psyeo

Did you try Installer.app instead of Cydia?

By the way, a good guide for all: http://www.modmyifone.com/wiki/index.php/Pwnage_2.0_Guide

I still hope somebody could answer my previous questions about the iTunes Store.

For those having difficulty accessing AppStore, this may be the reason. Everytime you get something from AppStore on your iPhone, it will ask you to log into your iTunes account. All apps, free or purchased, are tied to your iTunes account. Having jailbroken and activating it not through iTunes, means that you either have not created an iTunes account to tie up with the AppStore on your iPhone, and/or not used your already made iTunes account to unlock it. Remember, unlocking on Pwnage does not register as an official unlock, thus not tying it up with iTunes account, and therefore by extension of that ,the Appstore on your iPhone.

Once you've created an iTunes account and tie it to your iPhone, the Wifi iTunes store and Appstore on your iPhone will be able to access them.

1. using the current pwnage tool, you can unlock, activate and jailbreak 2.0 on iPhone 2G, activate and jailbreak iPhone 3G and iPod touch
2. yup, afaik the current installer is usable in 2.0 firmware, but all the app inside are not, installer 4.0 is said to be release soon for 2.0 firmware
2. there is a few 3rd party app in Cydia, i.e. NES, SSH...

iTunes stores is not the same accross different countries, US iTunes stores has the most applications in the AppStores, e.g. in my case, AppStore in NZ don't have Scrabbles and etc, and i believe Malaysia iTunes stores will be even lesser.

Malaysia's iTunes stores don't have movies, musics and etc.

I doubt that ur debit card is usable in iTunes Stores (US or local), unless the it is a VISA or Mastercard debit card.
afaik, iTunes US stores requires u to have a valid US credit card to purchase stuff from there....alternatively, u can try to ask ur frens in US to help u to purchase the iTunes card, or gift cert for u to purchase stuff from there

hope that helps




not yet, there is no installer.app in the pwnage tool, there is a installer icon there, but it will just tell u that the app is not there yet.

very details guide for mac user

not for windows user like me

anyone know alternate dload link for "custom" ready ipsw??

@psyeo

Yes, it is a VISA debit card. I hope it works. I don't wanna trouble an acquaintance to be getting gift cards for me all the time. But looks like I'll have to wait til Pwnage is release for Windows. My hackintosh refuses to recognize any USB disk. Great. I need a MacBook. Somebody help! =.="
