can you help?
my aim screen name is octobernightsky9 so just IM me or something instead of commenting back on here.
I'll post back here just in case anyone else is having the same issue ;)
What you need to do is make sure that your device is connected, and that it isn't the 2nd generation iTouch. That is not currently jailbreakable (keep your eyes peeled for RedSn0w!). Also, make sure that your iPod currently has the 2.1.1 firmware on it while you are using QuickPwn. QuickPwn isn't for upgrading your iTouch/iPhone, it's for jailbreaking the firmware that it's currently using.
1.1, 2.2, 2.1, 2.0, etc. are all different versions of firmwares. 2.0+ firmwares have the AppStore, as well as Cydia and Installer (if they're jailbroken). 1.1.x series firmwares don't have the AppStore, but you can get Cydia and Installer on them (if they're jailbroken).
What do you mean, browse the firmware? You mean look at the filesystem and stuff (like through OpenSSH on your computer)? I suggest getting Finder or iCommander from Cydia. Very nice little apps.
When i try doing the firmware part. I use 2.0.1 so I choose that firmware version from my desktop, and i wait. when its finish loading it says: firmware error string, help?
Is the 2.0.1 firmware you are trying to select the firmware that is on your device? If not, then it won't work. It has to be the DEFAULT firmware (IE: The original 2.0.1 firmware, not a WinPwn custom firmware or something). Otherwise it won't work.
The firmware that I use in this video is 2.1, but the process is the same for 2.0-2.2.
The firmware that you are trying to jailbreak should already be on your device. QuickPwn is NOT a firmware upgrader, just a firmware jailbreaker. So if you wanted to jailbreak 2.1, you would need to get the 2.1 firmware onto your device, and then use QuickPwn to jailbreak it.
Jailbreaking opens up your iPod touch or iPhone to be able to use 3rd party applications, other than those in the App Store. Jailbreaking unleashes your devices full potential.
Do we have to restore it ,coz I restored it but 3 days ago

Are you trying to go back from 3.0?
Also, make sure that you have the right version of the firmware for your device.

Try restoring it. Or, hold down the home and power buttons at the same time till it turns off, and then turn it back on.

when you turn it on for the first time, i noticed that it is a pineapple. does it stay like tht for every time that you turn it off or on?

Yes, unless you change the boot logo in the QuickPwn file, deselect change boot logos in QuickPwn, or you use LogoMe to change it.

yea i have the same problem as doorisclosing, it is the exact firmware file i restored it with but it doesn't do anything, any help?

Make sure that you're only using pre-3.0 firmwares. You can use RedSn0w to jailbreak the 3.0 firmware (even on the first gen iTouch).
If you're still having a problem, hit me up on AIM:
iTouchMaster2
or email me.

If i fuck up the installaition or something, can the default (un jailbroken) firmware be installed back to my ipod?
XoSalluSoX 3 years ago
Yes it can.
Download the unjailbroken firmware to your computer, connect your iPod, open up iTunes, and do this:
Shift + Click "Restore" (in iTunes)
Your iPod will be restored to the selected firmware.

how do you cheack your frimware
and what is this 1.1 and 2.2 or 2.1 2.0 stuff is it your software virson?
xREBxMatrix 3 years ago
You can check your firmware by doing this:
On your iPod, do this:
Settings>General>About
And you'll find your firmware version in there.
1.1, 2.2, 2.1, 2.0, etc. are all different versions of firmwares. 2.0+ firmwares have the AppStore, as well as Cydia and Installer (if they're jailbroken). 1.1.x series firmwares don't have the AppStore, but you can get Cydia and Installer on them (if they're jailbroken).
iTouchMaster2 3 years ago
what happens if the itouch is at 2.2 and how do you move it down to 1.1
xREBxMatrix 3 years ago
I don't think that there is currently a way to downgrade your iPod's firmware from 2.0+. Sorry.

What is this firmwire? Is this should be on your I-Phone/I-Pod touch originally? OR do you have to download this?

The firmware that I use in this video is 2.1, but the process is the same for 2.0-2.2.

iTouchMaster2 3 years ago
So where do I get the firmwire?
Can you tell me where to go to find it?
betbet2006 3 years ago
I can't find the firmware anywhere. Which drive is it at? Can you tell me where exactly it is located? Please, I need help.
