I upgraded to 1.1.3 from 1.1.1. Downloaded the zIphone zip and used the windows GUI. It gets to the end and just hangs. My iphone just sits there with the apple logo showing. The process log on ziphone says this:

ZiPhone v1.0 by Zibri. http://zibree.blogspot.com

Now nothing happens. Please help because now it won't come out of this mode and i can't restore. It's not recognizing the phone on the computer or Itunes. Thanks in advance.

I just went through this five minutes ago. Please see my "bricked" post and use the first method! I tried Ziphone again, and it just did the same thing. I'm going to try it with the first Ziphone release.

The same exact thing is happening to me now. I can't even get into restore mode.

Anyone have any solution?

READ MY SOLUTION! =)

I was able to get into restore mode. With it plugged in, hold down power and home until it turns black-keep holding- then once the apple logo appears let go of power but keep holding home. Should get you into restore mode. I'm going to check the above posters method.

Ok, so now i have a fresh restore of 1.1.3 with an unactivated, non-jailbroken phone. Every time i try to use the ziphone GUI it hangs. Anybody have a solution? similar problems?

Download the first version of ZiPhone! I just tried it and it works! The second version is causing the problem.

I am Loving my 16gig Unlocked iphone on t-mobile.
I used the Gunlock method so I can't really speak on the ZiPhone Unlock.
If I didn't Unlock mine already I would use it.
As it stands I have no issues with wifi or anything else.

The 20 dollar data plan made my Iphone come alive. With the t-zones plan I see people having some problems so if you can swing the data plan it's worth it. I actually ran ver 1.1 on my second Iphone and it worked like a charm. So far no problems.

Edit: I just double checked the version and in the program files it shows version 1.0 although I thought I had downloaded v1.1 so maybe it was the first version but it definitely worked nicely. I'm curious about wifi since my router decided to die on me last night.

FINALLY. I tried for hours and no luck. Thank you for the correct version. What a joke.........

thanks for a quick reply bklynjava, Ziphone sounds like a great program but there are some many versions out there that i dont know which one to use and which one works or doesnt. How does Gunlock work? does it involve downgrading basebands and all that or is it as simple as Ziphone....could you point me to where i can learn more about Gunlock



Posted by: Voda203

so is the first release the right version to use and it works correctly?

thanks for the info
what did you use to unlock/activate/jailbreak your iphone?



Posted by: beermantm

ZIphone you know what I'll run it and check out the version number because the link definitely says ver 1.1 but the app say v1. Are you unlocking a brand new phone?

Ok I just ran it and checked it and it is definitely v1.1 in the top of the gui.

brand new iphone

Oh yeah t-mobile works great and everything is working with the data plan. Had to edit the edge settings but after that when they turned on the $20 data plan it made the phone useful with everything. You-tube, google maps, world clock, yahoo stocks, weather pretty much everything. The internet is great, video streaming a bit slow but still good, so yeah ver 1.1 Ziphone is the ticket.



Posted by: beermantm

actually weather doesn't seem to be working but it looks like it might be network specific.

A reboot and all is well. Now I have to figure out why the wallpaper can not be set.
