Hi, im currently having a locked iphone which is version 2.2 which i jailbreaked using QuickPwn when the version of yellowsn0w was 0.9.6 .

Now recently, the Dev Team said again # GOLDEN RULE: If you have a 3G iPhone running 2.2 firmware and you want to keep your ability to use yellowns0w (or the option to use it in the future) do NOT use QuickPwn, and do not use the official ipsw or the iTunes update process without using PwnageTool.

Im on a windows i cant run PwnageTool and ive already jailbroken my phone using QuickPwn coz when it was 0.9.6, the Dev Team did say it was okay, they scrapped Off the "Golden Rule" at that time when they announced it. I don't know if any of you were following it.

So now my question is, is it possible for me to update yellowsn0w in the future if i do a full restore with iTunes to 2.2 then somehow find PwnageTool to 2.2.1(custom .ipsw:)?

Or else any alternatives? Or am i just holding a soon to be bricked phone coz i can't update anything anymore and stick to 2.2 with 0.9.6 yellowsn0w?

Thanks

basically 2.21 nothing to shout about, stick with ur 2.2 + 0.9.6 lor

Yup2..agreed with rx330..no need to go through all the troubles juz to get almost nothing on the update..
juz stick with ur current bro..

Cheers!

Okay thanks...what if a new firmware update comes out? Will my jailbroken phone with quickpwn make it impossible to use new yellowsn0w versions?

Coz right now its 2.2 jailbroken with quickpwn

Be very careful now whenever Apple release new firmware after 2.2. Apple also make it a point to change the phone baseband which make whatever released by Dev team to unlock the phone not work. yellowsn0w for fw 2.2 will not work for the new baseband. It may take weeks or months before the new unlock apps from Dev team to function. If you have a Mac you use PwnageTool 2.2.5 to create a custom ipsw file with the old baseband and the latest version of Quickpwn to jailbreak and unlock the phone. Anyway there is not much advantage to move to 2.2.1.
