I have successfully jailbroken my new iPhone 3G, and I have an application I made with the iPhone SDK. Does anyone know how I can get it to work on my iPhone? I tried just copying the compiled .app file to /Applications, but when I try to launch my app it just crashes after showing the default graphic for a few seconds.

I compiled this app on my PPC Mac if that makes any difference, but I doubt it would.

If you copied your app you probably copied the simulator version over. If you Pwned your phone, plug it in when you open XCode. It should ask if you want to use that device for development, say yes. Then in your project, switch the build to Device->Debug instead of Simulator->Debug and when you build it should install it on the phone.
 
Just finished upgrading from 1.1.2 with a piggyback SIM card unlock to 2.0 (SIM unlock removed now) and it seems to be working fine. I think there may be something wrong with my phone though. Every single time I turn it on or reboot it I get a notification that I have a new voicemail. It did this before when I was using the piggyback SIM and it's still doing it now. I assume that's not normal. I'm on T-Mobile and have a couple of friends who also are and they never had this problem either. Other than this phantom voicemail, it is working great so far.

I think this might be a by product of unofficial installing thee SDK on a PPC mac, because whenever I plug my iPhone in with Xcode open it just says "Unable to find /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DiskImages". I have the iPhoneOS.platform folder, but not the DiskImages. Is someone able to upload that folder for me? Might fix it.

In the Project -> Active SDK , it is set for Device. And in Active Architecture it is armv6.
 
Success

I just used PwnageTool 2.0 to unlock and jailbreak my original iPhone. My wife is now using the phone on her T-Mobile plan. Text messaging works, although we haven't activated data yet for her. We're a little confused about whether the TMobile $5.99 or the $19.99 data plan is correct. People are talking about $5.99 but TMobile says it's $19.99.

Anyway, Safari, Mail, and iTunes downloaded apps work great. The App Store seems to work great over Wifi, and I'm so far very impressed. It's really weird seeing the TMobile name where ATT is usually found.
 
wait, so this doesnt include the 2.0 software in it?

No offense but you will probably be better served and less frustrated if you wait until tomorrow when iclarified or someone has an install guide up. Or perhaps you should take the time to read through this thread... where 2.0 is and how to get it is covered 4 or 5 times.
 
SOCKS relay is the program to install to tether.

It works on 3G! :D:D:D

SSH in, start srelay, setup your computer to use a SOCKS proxy on your iPhone's IP address, etc.

Basically just use this tutorial:

Hey General! Thanks for being the pioneer for us again! This is VERY good news.

Your tutorial link didn't show up... can you repost for us?

Thanks!

Pwnage wont put my phone in DFU, so I force it into DFU then run the program again where it has to recompile the damn ipsw (why cant it just see that its their and use it) it says still cant put phone in DFU. So I tried 3 more times..... Finally somone says theres no need just make sure you have itunes 7.7 (I Do) and do an hold ALT and Press restore...

It shows the pineapple says its restored and then my phone does the eternal reboot.. ever 10 seconds or so black screen then pineapple....

Any Ideas?
 
Yikes. I am so going to hold off on this one. Just had a bit of a scare thinking I bricked my 1st gen. I'll hang off until they make something a little bit easier. :)

i was having some similar problems. finally i just did a clean install of 2.0 thru iTunes (held Option as i clicked Restore, picked the properly downloaded 2.0 and let that restore). unplugged the iPhone once that whole thing was done, then started the tool again, only plugging in when it finally asked for it. at that point, smooth sailing!

this was done on an original iPhone, which is now unlocked and purring nicely :)
 
i think i need help

First and foremost i had ziphone, so i restored to factory settings and upgraded to 2.0. (i don't have at&t) so my phone requires activation.

i used pwnage tool 2.0, used simple mode, downloaded BL39, and 46.
restord with the .ipsw(located on my desktop) that pwnage made for me.

when it was done, the iphone turned on i saw the pineapple logo, and for some reason it dosn't get pass that point, it is just turns on the pineapple logo for 3 secs, then it turns it off, then it turns it on for another 3 secs and its been doing so for a while, i will try to reinstall it.

anyone know what i can do?
 
$$ Warning $$

Got my original 8GB iPhone up and running with 2.0. But I synced it all up and started to use it before realizing that it was using data over edge!!! Be careful what you do and connect to a wi-fi point right away.

I'm trying to use the iphone configuration tool to disable Edge right now.

Although now it's stuck 'sync in progress' with the green battery and a rotating circle in the centre of the screen - I'm unable to turn it off :(
 
****ing Siiiiiick

Basically just use this tutorial:

HOLY SMOKES!!! I am posting this from my computer, BUT I AM TETHERED TO MY 3G iphone!!!! This just made the jailbreak sooooo worth it.

I couldnt find the tutorial General was talking about, but I figured it out using this: http://www.zdziarski.com/papers/tethering.txt

You will need SOCKS, and OpenSSH on your phone...
 
Help w/ Activate Cellular Data Network

I got the pawnage 2.0 update to work on my first gen iphone. Everything synced okay, but i am having a problem connecting to the internet. No weather, stocks, appstore, or safari.

The Error Message i get is "Could not activate cellular data network"

I am using Cincinnati Bell if that makes a difference. All calls and sms functions work great.

Would it have something to do with the APN or VPN settings?
Thanks
 
Ok, I figured out how to disable EDGE. I built a profile with the Enterprise Tool (iPhone Configuration Utility). All I put into this profile was changes to the APN, so it will not affect anything else.

Now the way to install this is to email it to yourself and then check your email on the iPhone (through WiFi of course). You will see the attachment to your email. Tap on it and you will be presented with a screen to install the profile. Once this is complete, EDGE is now disabled.

In order to remove this profile and use EDGE data, you will have to goto Settings > General > Profile. From here you can remove the profile and put things back to normal.

The way I plan to use this is keep this email filed in a folder that I can reference and install it from. So when I do need data over cellular, I will remove the profile, use my data and then reinstall the profile right away. I used to this on my old phone as I have very limited data.

Hope this helps some people out. I have included the file here zipped as that's all I can do on MR. So unzip it, and then mail it to yourself to enjoy worry free cell phone usage!
