Hey guys, my cousin sister got her iPhone 2G from Taiwan. It came directly from US, and the shopkeeper jailbroke it for her. She's been using it with a Maxis sim card for a while in Malaysia already. Yesterday, a problem occurred where the "Ants on screen" effect malfunctioned. It started making the iPhone display tonnes of ants all over the screen, and the main menu (spring board) could not be accessed. The iPhone would just have the Apple boot logo in the background with ants all over, looking extremely messed up. She was clueless on what to do, so she got it to recovery mode and restored her unit to firmware 2.2
It wasn't a good thing either as the phone booted fine, but the springboard could not be accessed once again due to the absence of a valid sim card. (Only emergency calls etc).
I then tried jailbreaking it using Pwnage Tool and it abruptly failed. The custom firmware creation (ipsw file) worked really nicely, but an error popped up upon restoration. It read something like 21 (6000). Apparently, i was restoring it using recovery mode instead of the recommended DFU mode (I made a mistake with the buttons). When i restored it using the DFU method, the 21 error disappeared but the 6000 error remained.
I'm clueless on what to do. I've jailbroken many iPod Touches, but never an iPhone. Thanks.

DFU'd both using the on-screen prompt as well as my own. Both produced the same result.
Yea, i told my cousin sister to give Quickpwn a shot, as it was late, and i couldn't try it on my Mac.

QUOTE(shiniraz @ Jun 10 2009, 06:39 PM) Guys, i think i've read somewhere in this thread, someone advice that iPhone 2.2.1 FW is not advice to do update on their iTunes to the latest version(8.2). May i know why? I'm using 3G unlock FW2.2.1 JB, have updated to the latest iTunes, and everything seems operating normally. Thanks Users are advised not to do so, because jailbreak GUI's like QuickPwn and Pwnage Tool doesn't not work with iTunes 8.2. If your iPhone is already jailbroken, it should work flawlessly though.  |

We would have to wait for official news from the dev team or anyone else working on it.

QUOTE(dwk2112 @ Jun 15 2009, 04:04 PM) Have been reading almost all the post but i got one more question. Please refer me to the right section.. Once the iphone been jailbreak, can i still purchase apps from apple store and load it in. I am anxiously waiting for the tom tom gps apps.... Sure you can. Once you jailbreak your unit, you don't loose any default functions, you just gain more |

Why not wait for news from the developers themselves? Would that not be the most reliable source? Seriously..
