http://www.quickpwn.com/2009/01/downgrade-firmware-221-to-22.html Here is how you can downgrade from firmware 2.2.1 to 2.2: * Connect your iPhone to your Mac or PC and select your iPhone from the list of devices in iTunes. If things had gone horribly wrong while hacking your iPhone and iTunes does not detect your iPhone then you will need to put it in DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode. o You can follow these steps to put your iPhone in DFU mode (this is required only if iTunes does not recognize your iPhone): + Connect your iPhone to your computer. + Turn iPhone off. + Hold power and home together for 10 seconds (exactly). + Release power but keep holding home until the computers beeps (observed on a PC) as a USB device is recognized. + A few seconds later iTunes should detect your iPhone. * In the Summary Tab, Hold down Option and press the “Restore” button. If you are using Windows hold down Shift and press the Restore button. (This is an important step as just pressing the “Restore” button will result in restoring your iPhone with the latest firmware which is firmware 2.2 currently, by holding down Option in case of Mac or Shift in case of Windows, allows you choose the firmware file that you want to downgrade to.) After restoring download QuickPWN from http://www.quickpwn.com/downloads and use it to jailbreak your firmware 2.2. The info above is from the quickpwn site, if it does not work for u, search for it on google there are lot of ways to downgrade. Critics are welcome they tell you go can make it better in a different way. |

Pardon my English, But honestly we are here to help out not to make money, anybody using iphone or ipod touch needs to learn to unlock and jailbreak itself because most times the firmware do crash. if you pay to unlock today will you pay again, l thank you all for your comments but l do not support the use of abusive language, let stop it we are all responsible adults here. |

@Turawafett your efforts are commendable. the need to downgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.2 is mostly on account of the 3G software unlock known as yellowsn0w. this unlock method requires only the 2.2 baseband (ie 02-28-00) to work and nothing else. upgrading from 2.2 to 2.2.1 on the 3G updates the 02-28-00 baseband to 02-30-03 which is incompatible with yellowsn0w. clearly anyone wishing to use their phone on any unauthorized network who have upgraded to 2.2.1 MUST downgrade, where possible, to 2.2 (or at least downgrade only the baseband from 02.30 to 02.28). your method above describes downgrading FOR THE IPHONE CLASSIC. in the original (non-3G) iphone the baseband remains the same across 2.x.x (ie 2.0 to 2.2.1). this baseband is 04-05-04_G. therefore on whatever firmware from 2.0 through to 2.2.1 downgrading is possible and is easy because the baseband remains the same. however the issue here is downgrading the baseband from 02.30.03 to 02.28.00 on the iphone 3G. downgrading from a higher baseband to a lower one is difficult across almost any device range. just try downgrading the firmware of NICs say from gigabit ethernet to 10/100 Base T. (the BASE here refers to BASEBAND, the opposite of BROADBAND). so, 2.2.1 software is downgradeable on iphone classic to 2.2 because only the software is downgraded, while on 3G its much more difficult because the baseband is involved. hope this makes the issue clearer. |

turawafett: the stuff in bold above is patently false. EPIC FAIL!! if you mean they are the same, you are wrong. if you mean they are arrived at by the same method you are wrong. we have said this before. jailbreaking is freeing up the filesystem with admin privileges. unlocking is modifying or spoofing the baseband to get network service. Bootneuter unlocks 2G iphone, yellowsn0w "unlocks" 3G. i put unlock in quotes because the 3G unlock is not full unlock. it uses an injection vector running on something similar to Backgrounder to deliver its payload which initializes and runs on boot time. the baseband remains completely unmodified with its seczone intact. turawafett: im guessing you are referring to Logica and I with the above. well, anyone posting wrong info is fair game. you included. mannerless? hark!! "in this world of vainly missions im the god of superstition would you cope for my existence? would you last or cease persistence? im the moon and the seventh dreamer you're the hewn and a lost redeemer heaven works for a welkin at dusk but you're the frail outcast sit and recall the fragments of a broken life just like a shattered soul divine you are the treason-reflecting eyes you are the darkness that sets in every light you are the scavenger of the dreamless night, a token of murdered sleep but I am the arrow the shaft that dispels your horror."

And for the love of mike, it's 'firmware' not 'filmware'. Quote from: turawafett on Yesterday at 01:55:15 AM I'm always annoyed with people on this site, most times they want money for information. How many of the people who replied the OP have demanded for money? The word mannerless was used to caution the person was use the word idiot nothing more, so Ex Inferis read thru the post, meanwhile thanks. |

Re: Problem With Iphone. Need Help Please! by turawafett(f): 9:11am On Apr 28, 2009 |
Another method from the site. Install Minicom from Cydia, then follow these instructions, 1. After installing Minicom from Cydia, make sure the folder /usr/etc exists. SSH into your iPhone and then, type: minicom -s 2. Now, select Serial Port Setup in the Menu and press Enter. Then, press "a" and set Serial Device to /dev/tty.debug. press enter. 3. Press Esc, and in the Main Menu, select Save setup as dfl. Now, select "exit". 4. To run minicom using ssh, just run minicom -w 5. To get the bb version type at+xgendata |

@turawafett I can see that you mean well, so apologies for calling you can idiot. However, even though your heart is in the right place, you must see that you're only giving the OP false hope by insisting his problem will certainly be solved by downgrading and jailbreaking. it won't. @OP Apparently some *SIM solutions work on 2.2.1, you might be best served trying out that angle. |
Re: Problem With Iphone. Need Help Please! by turawafett(f): 10:04pm On Apr 28, 2009 |
Apologies to all, we are here to help each other. |
Re: Problem With Iphone. Need Help Please! by ExInferis(m): 12:02pm On Apr 29, 2009 |
turawafett: so we are, so we are. but then, a "help" that suggests using minicom to create a serial connection is more difficult than SSH, especially with all that CLI messing. BB version is obtainable via ABOUT in settings. i guess its better to just SSH with Tunnel Suite or WinSCP (Putty on Mac). |

Lovely people, lovely contributions but on the nutshell i think i just have to sit and wait till a solution will finally come by. But at the time be i will have to sit and enjoy other use of the phone. Thanks a lot and God blesses to you all. Cheers!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
