I had the same problem, round and round she went with no end in sight. I had a fresh install of the 1.1.1 on my iphone running XP.

I hate having to debug between the two billion version of Windows. As a temporary workaround, try generating using dropbearkey in the C:\Program Files\touchFree folder to generate the RSS and DSS keys and put them in your Temporary folder (C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\Local Settings\Temp). The commands are "dropbearkey -t rsa -f /etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host_key" and "dropbearkey -t dss -f /etc/dropbear/dropbear_dss_host_key".

The next version will be slightly more version independent.

Make sure iTunes is loaded and your iPod is connected to your computer
Hold down the standby button (top left) and home button (bottom center) until the screen flashes - takes about 10-15 seconds. Let go of the standby button *only*, keep your finger on the Home button until iTunes gives you a message that it has detected an iPod in recovery mode and must be restored before it can continue.

You iPod will be wiped and reloaded back to its original settings

The only problem/issue I've run into is that my Music, Videos, Photos and Itunes icons are now at the very top of the screen and I can't access them - I figured out a workaround by installing Dock, but it would be nice to have icons all lined up (the top 1/3 of the music, video, photo, itunes icons are cut off by the top of the screen)

I restored and tried it again with the latest revision. Works even greater now! :D Not sure why the music, video, etc ended up where it was before, but it's fine now.

Awesome stuff
 
Trouble Jailbreaking

Hey, downloaded all the things needed, but when i try and go to load the page to crash safari on my itouch, safari won't crash and says unable to load page (twice). it doesn't crash or exit, so am having trouble getting past that step to jailbreak my itouch. any suggestions?
 
Every time I get to this point, the progress bar ceases to move forward. I restored my touch and tried again, but even now, the progress screen looks EXACTLY like this-- been waiting for 30 min +

Any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks for the help. After a restore and a second attempt it works just great.

Now how do I get some of the phone apps on the iTouch, "Stocks, Weather, Maps, Mail"? I am a novice at this stuff.

and the one I want the most is a working Phone app......... just kidding.:D

THANKS in advance,

Donnie

i need help!!!

i hacked it then i got the same problem as arrs with the icons in the top. i tryed to restore but i got an error. now itunes isn't even recognizing the device. please help.
 
is this the new version that just came out some time today (3.0a11) or the old version (3.0a10)? The new version fixes the problem where the wallpaper doesnt load at startup.
 
2 questions...

1. i got the GUI to work and had Installer.app on my "desktop" along with SMB preferences or something. When i open Installer.app, i don't have very many things in there. Much less than the youtube video showed.

2. When i download summerboard (should i download this?!?) my main buttons (music, video, photos, itunes store) moved to the top of my ipod.

what did i do wrong?
 
i downloaded the touchfree thing, hacked the ipod successfully, but one thing isn't correct; as soon as i installed the summerboard, it screwed up my dock. Now, the dock is unusable and is on the top of the screen. I can't touch anything on it, therefore can't get to my music, videos, pictures or the itunes wifi store. Can anyone help?

I am having the same problem. anyone got any ideas?
 
installer.app doesn't have many apps inside

again.

i finished installing touchfree and the installer and smbprefs buttons are there. i open installer and there aren't many things to add inside. are there other places to get all the apps?
 
planetbeing everytime i try to update my ipod. the update keeps downloading after it's supposed to be done

could u help me?
 
fixed!

when installer.app is installed, it has limited choices for installation. install community sources and the rest will be there. awesome!
