I've gone thru step 1 to 3 now 5 times. each time I get to Launch Independence and restart the touch with the slide, it just won't restart. It sits on the apple logo and freezes.. Only option I have is to restore and try again.

I've followed the instructions to the letter. It just won't happen. Any help?

I did notice that when I GetFile, i see the bytes remaining till its finished, but when I putFile, I see nothing at all. Just comes back to the iphuc prompts. So I've assumed that means its finished.

Independence seems to thing its initially connected and the touch is jailbroke, but the restart won't restart the touch..

Any thoughts at all?


Anyone?? I'm getting frustrated as I want to be able to load the ebook app to read ebooks on my touch and to get my mail working!!

That happened to me. I did a restore to fix it then, I went through the instructions again and it worked somehow... try that. Sorry.
 
Hmm I've done the restore 5 times and started from scratch and nothing!! same story.. :-(

I am in Australia if that is of any help!

i just finished doing mine, its not too hard, but yeah, i could see where a nice automated process would help some people out.

perhaps, but its not so straightforward, if its anything like the previous ipods. IIRC, itunes renames all the files, and goes off a itunes.db (or somthing like that) file to play them and keep them organized.

the rockbox guys have more documentation on this.
 
:(

rapid share is confusing, can someone attach the file here so i could download it? please? that two files required to be downloaded from rapidshare
 
Problem

OK. I pod now stuck in black screen with Apple logo. Wont let me do anything. Ideas?

thanks everyone.

...oh.... and yes, I have held the wake/sleep button for 20 seconds. and no it idid not help.

I also tried holding the wake button, as well as the menu button. that shuts it off, but then when I start it up again, still straight to the black screen.
 
one more question, i don't know this phrase


"When asked the password is alpine. If it gives a fuss, you may need to remove the "known_hosts" file from /Users/YourUser/.ssh/ (Remember, you should keep touching your screen to keep it active, it seems to slow networking right off when it goesn't into a sleep)"

what should i do? cause i got an error when i try typing the password
