My iPhone is now with 2.0 firmware

"

My iPhone is now with 2.0 firmware thanks to Pwnage 2.0 tool . I used The Happy Coder's instructions.

Took a little bit more time than previous effort with 1.1.4, but all went smoothly. Most importantly all my calendar events, contacts, and other stuff was restored.

Yesterday, I went to AT&T store in Youngstown,OH to check 3G phone. What can I say... It's almost identical box. 3G isn't really something I need. GPS is. All and all, I don't think I need 3G phone. With 2.0 firmware my current iPhone of first generation is really really realy powerful smart phone.

While in [AT&T] store annoying saleswoman kept bothering me about how can she help me. I told her I am intereted in this 3G phone and showed her my current phone with T-Mobile logo , didn't seem like she was amused, she just left me alone after that.

If something goes wrong

—

Note, if something goes wrong with the phone, to restore it, do not use iTunes default restore option, rather do this:

  • In iTunes, click Option+Restore button.
  • Choose "iPhone1,1_2.0_5A347_Custom_Restore.ipsw" (this is the file that Pwnage tool created).
  • Use iTunes backup to restore contacts, sms, calendar and other info.

I've had to restore my phone once already. I don't know what happened exactly but none of the third party applications from appstore were running. They'd start but automatically self-quit after few seconds.
