The unlocking sequence stops right when ziphone says the iphone enters recovery mode. What do i do? ive tried to right click the restore button and restore the iphone with the correct firmware but nothing seems to work. and when i do restore it with the right firmware i lose the connection to ziphone so i have to start all over again and then it goes back into recovery mode and just stays there even though i just restored it with the firmware. help me please!

so i did this process because i'd rather stick with 1.1.3 than 1.1.4 and now i get this odd problem about downloading from installer...i don't know what to do because i can't uninstall or reinstall either - the exact message i get is "ERROR Package Download Failed" but i connect no problem to my wifi and my phone can make calls... anybody got an idea what's up?

With an OTB 1.1.3 is it necessary to put the phone into recovery mode? I thought ziphone 2.4 puts the phone into recovery mode for you. I have unlocked one phone otb 1.1.3- ran ziphone 2.4 with itunes running in the background. Everything works fine. Did I just get lucky? Planning on unlocking another one tomorrow.

Take a closer look at the email notifications you're getting of new comments. It's a link in there to unsubscribe from this tutorial. I just did it myself.

Murillo, you need a restoring with a previosly FIRNWARE of the Iphone. Found an 1.1.2 ORIGINAL software, install it with Itunes, and then lunch the Ziphone as you did it last days! !:))))

Hello guys,
Tks for the tutorial! But I have a problem, everytime I try to do the run the ZiPhone the program stops when it says "Getting into the recovering mode" and doesn't go on. Does anyone have the same problem? Should I turn down the iTunes when it starts by itself? I am not doing that.
Thank you very much for the help!!!!

I went from a 1.1.2 that was previously unlocked and updated from a 1.0.2. After much consideration I went for it. I updated to 1.1.3 ran ziphone and after a few minutes I was unlocked and jailbroken. Ziphone did say there was one error but not sure what was wrong. Everythng works. I did have to clear that cache in the installer cause it initially would not let me install anything. I was getting "Error downloading file" I think that was the error name..anyway thanks all is good on 1.1.3

wow trivels, thanks for the amazing response time!
ok the locate me function in google maps had no issues before, nor does it now, but the locateMe app that i just got from installer is wayyy off mark, as is navizon plugin (even moreso, actually).
bigger issues at hand: my earphone, headphones AND speaker phone do not work for phone calls. and youtube isnt playing vids. helpppp!

The error is that the LOCATE ME in google maps doesn't work. From the installer you can found a patch called LOCATE ME that resolve the problem ! !
Everything is OK now ! !

I ran Ziphone and the phone works fine. However, it does not mount at all (not in iTunes, not in OSX). I think I messed up because I killed iTunes when it showed up during installation (I just read that you're not supposed to do that). Any idea for a fix? I guess there may be a way to reset the phone, but I couldn't find any tutorial. Any ideas? I'm really worried. Thanks!

I live in malaysia and i bought my iphone with 1.1.2 firmware which was unlocked using turbo sim. Im thinking of updating the firmware to 1.1.3 using itunes on my macbook with osx ver 10.4.11 using itunes ver 7.6. Would ziphone GUI ver 2.4 be able to unlock it after updating to 1.1.3 using itunes with the turbo sim still attached to my simcard? Would appreciate a response from those who have done it and if there are any other issues after using ziphone. My email is aden_gazelle@yahoo.com. Thanking you guys in advance.

a few details : step 5 - no more verbose check box on ziphone 2.4 standard window (it's probably default now), and there's no step 7 in the tutorial...

used 2.4 GUI for mac to jailbreak, unlock and activate my 1.1.2 iphone which was previously upgraded to 1.1.3 using iTunes 7.6
when done, got this message ziphone returned error 1
Issue:
1. maps locate function not working
2. yahoo messed up (somehow keeps saying apple.yahoo or something like that)
3. youtube says not working but then runs
any ideas? This freaked me out and I had the phone fully restored to factory setting using iTunes. Thanks...

Working with a MBP 2.4GHz, intel based, all software and firmware updated. iphone 1.1.2 updated to 1.1.3 with iTunes 7.6 (I think)... I keep getting this message:
Tried ZiPhone v2.0 on my Macbook OSX 10.4.10 iTunes 7.5. However, no matter whether I m putting my OTB 1.1.3 iPhone in recovery mode or regular activation-mode, ZiPhone comes up with following error: Loading zibri.dat. i386 Searching for iPhone... dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _sleep$UNIX2003 Referenced from: /Users/jacobclaussen/Desktop/ZiPhoneOSX.app/Contents/Resources/ziphone Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib dyld: Symbol not found: _sleep$UNIX2003 Referenced from: /Users/jacobclaussen/Desktop/ZiPhoneOSX.app/Contents/Resources/ziphone Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib ERROR: ziphone returned 5
Will the 2.4 GUI for Mac version help with this? Any comments or advise would greatly help. Thanks
