QUOTE(LooN @ Nov 9 2008, 09:40 AM) anyway david, i followed the instruction given from the iClarified link u provided but then when i try to double click the quickpwn 2.1, it pop up errors telling me that the program failed to open file, directory or do not have permission to do so. can you help me bit? i'm now stucked in the 2.1 firmware (after restored using itunes 8.0.1), pretty much headache now. sigh.. I too am having this problem; I've downloaded from both LYN & iClarified links. Windows (Vista) just does not want to run the program. "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access them." which is complete BS since I am running as administrator.

QUOTE(davidgary73 @ Nov 9 2008, 07:30 PM) Hmmmm..was searching via google. Not sure if this helps. Maybe you guys need to download .NET framework. Then download Quickpwn again. .NET framework is already part of Vista's installation. No dice. Anyone else know what the solution could be?

I have Vista, .NET framework 3.5, all my automatic updates are installed, and as a rule i've turned off AUC since day one.
And yet I still can't use QuickPwn. Ziphone v3 doesn't seem to work (sorta gets stuck at 'entering recovery mode' for a long time,) and WinPwn2.5 doesn't seem to have an option for jailbreaking with 2.1 fw.
Can anyone offer a suggestion? I'd really like to jailbreak my phone...

QUOTE(setoyo @ Nov 10 2008, 02:57 PM) Schattenjeager.. How about redownload the quickpwn..? I have man. From 3 different sources (LYN, iClarify, and a torrent). It's not the quickpwn, it's something to do with my PC/Vista's settings or something. I'll just have to find an XP PC to jailbreak it on...

QUOTE(frozzbyte @ Nov 10 2008, 07:19 PM) @Schattenjeager Maybe u need to reformat your Vista. Last time happen to corvinux when running winpwn. Aha, no thanks, not sure I want to reformat an entire PC just to jailbreak my phone (I just reinstalled 2 weeks ago!). I'll find an XP-based PC to do it, no worries. Thanks for the help guys!

QUOTE(potion @ Nov 10 2008, 07:52 PM) @Schattenjeager please do recheck ur antivirus/firewall since it can block program from running and prompt similar error message as yours cheers Yeah I get false-positives from AVG on top of the windows error message. I've even turned off AVG altogether, and still Windows won't let me run the program. I know it's not quickpwn itself because I used the very same file off my XP Laptop, and it runs fine. (And for the curious, the reason why I'm not using my laptop to jailbreak the phone is because the usb ports on it have blown out. The very act of connecting the iPhone to my laptop hangs/crashes the whole laptop.)

Update: For some extremely weird reason, QuickPwn decided to work on my PC today! (Weird right? I must've rebooted a dozen times last night to no avail).
Now the proud owner of a jailbroken fw2.1 i3G. Hi guys!

Ok newbie question here: I've looked at and successfully followed the jailbreaking walkthroughs posted before, but that was with a fresh/brand new iP3G.
If I were to upgrade to 2.2, would I have to wipe my phone and everything again? Or do I just upgrade regularly via iTunes, then jailbreak with content intact?
Sorry, just a little confused...

QUOTE(wilsoncvt @ Nov 23 2008, 11:26 AM) Except for that. Those are not under jb applications. All apps from iTunes app store will also remain intact. Only the jb apps and settings will be wiped. Ah, that's no big deal then So all I'd have to do is backup my jb apps with AptBackup and then upgrade my phone, then jailbreak...right?

Okay, I guess I'm not too concerned about the JB apps, just mostly my contacts and SMS stuff. Shall back those up first (although I'm using DiskAid instead of SSH)...
Again, sorry for the noob questions; just that the instructions to JB seem to indicate that you have to wipe your phone clean for best results. However, I was wondering if how I plan to go about JB 2.2 are correct?
Aka: Step 1. Upgrade via iTunes, Step 2: JB Quickpwn2.2, Step 3: Reinstall all JB apps = correct?

QUOTE(wilsoncvt @ Nov 23 2008, 11:37 AM) uhuh that's about right...however...make sure you determine how best to JB though according to your phone type: From the dev team : http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/61060174/t...onte-he-say-yesThanks for all the help and advice, mate. I've got an unlocked SG iP3G so I guess things should be cool? I previously JBroke it with just Quickpwn2.1... Shall wait for the tutorial then.

QUOTE(wilsoncvt @ Nov 23 2008, 12:14 PM) Spoke too soon... I've successfully updated to FW2.2. Then I ran QuickPwn with option of installing Cydia only. Successful. Now... did I forget something or is it weird that after all is done, Cydia doesn't show up on my iPhone3G...  Added on November 23, 2008, 12:21 pmI'll try installing an app from iTunes Store to see whether a refresh will solve the anomaly... Added on November 23, 2008, 12:28 pmMy aifontriji is trying to act cute...not working. Will have to restore and redo it all... Just a note though, maybe my problem has to do with 3rd party jb application, Categories. I wanted to take everything out of the folders I had set up prior to updating FW2.2 but I didn't. That is probably why my Cydia icon is not showing up. I'm taking a wild guess here...  Staying tuned...
