-Submitted by Username: jake fox
Thank you.
MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON FIRMWARE 2.2.1 BEFORE YOU START
1.) Extract redsn0w lite and XPwn to your Desktop
2.) Save (or move) the 2.2.1 IPSW into the XPwn folder and rename it OriginalFW.ipsw
3.) In the rslite101 folder, there should be a FirmwareBundles folder; copy the iPod2,1_2.2.1_5H11.bundle into your XPwn\FirmwareBundles\ folder.
4.) Open up a Command Prompt (type cmd in the Search bar if on Vista).
5.) In Command Prompt, cd to the Xpwn directory and do "ipsw OriginalFW.ipsw patchedFW.ipsw -s 700 bundles\Cydia.tar"
Some people are having trouble with the cd command. Just type cd, then a space, and then drag the little folder icon of where you want to cd(so in our case drag the Xpwn folder into the command line) in this into the command prompt and press enter.
Should look something like this after you drag the folder in.
IF YOU GET AN ERROR HERE SAYING "COULD NOT FIND IPSW" take out the .ipsw after OriginalFW in the xpwn folder
After you have your command prompt looking like that type in "ipsw OriginalFW.ipsw patchedFW.ipsw -s 700 bundles\Cydia.tar"
Should say hashing ipsw
6.) Put your iPod Touch in DFU mode
Step 1. Turn off your iPod.
Step 2. Press and hold home button for 5 seconds then continue holding home button and press power button for 10 seconds
Step 3. release the power button but continue holding the home button down.
Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that its in restore mode..
IF YOU SEE APPLE LOGO YOU DID IT WRONG. YOUR iPOD SHOULD BE A BLACK SCREEN WHEN YOU'RE ON DFU MODE*****
If you haven't already installed libusb, please do so now.
If you're running Vista or 7, please right click the .exe and select Properties, then click the Compatibility tab, then select Windows XP (Service Pack 2) from the drop-down menu.
After install, a restart may be required.
8.)Open another Command Prompt (or use the one you used before, if it is still up) and type the following:
Code:
cd C:\Users\yourusername\Desktop\iRecovery\iRecovery_SVN
IF YOU GET A SIDE-BY-SIDE ERROR CLICK THIS LINK AND INSTALL C++
9.) Extract your 2.1.1 iBSS and 2.2.1 iBSS and iBoot.
To do so, right click your 2.1.1 IPSW and select Open with> WinRAR archiver.
Navigate to the Firmware\dfu directory, then drag iBSS.n72ap.RELEASE.dfu into your iRecovery_SVN folder.
Rename it iBSS211.dfu.
Now, open up your PatchedFW.IPSW from the xpwn folder using WinRAR.
First, navigate to the Firmware\dfu folder and drag iBSS.n72ap.RELEASE.dfu into your iRecovery_SVN folder.
Rename is iBSS221.dfu.
Now, navigate to the Firmware\all_flash\all_flash.n72ap.production folder.
Extract iBoot.n72ap.RELEASE.img3 to your iRecovery_SVN folder.
Rename it iBoot221.img3.
10.)Bring up your Command Prompt again and execute the following:
Code:
iRecovery -f iBSS211.dfu
If it doesn't, unplug your iPod and wait 10 seconds, then plug it back in.
11.)11.) In the same Command Prompt, enter the following:
Code:
iRecovery -s
arm7_stop
mw 0x9000000 0xe59f3014
mw 0x9000004 0xe3a02a02
mw 0x9000008 0xe1c320b0
mw 0x900000c 0xe3e02000
mw 0x9000010 0xe2833c9d
mw 0x9000014 0xe58326c0
mw 0x9000018 0xeafffffe
mw 0x900001c 0x2200f300
arm7_go
arm7_stop
/exit
12.) Restore to your PatchedFW.ipsw firmware using iTunes (Hold shift and press restore and click the patchedfw.ipsw that is in the Xpwn folder)
13.) After your restore is complete, put you iPod into DFU mode, you'll have to apply the patch again to boot.
You will also have to do these same things each time you boot from now on:
Code:
iRecovery -f iBSS211.dfu
iRecovery -s
arm7_stop
mw 0x9000000 0xe59f3014
mw 0x9000004 0xe3a02a02
mw 0x9000008 0xe1c320b0
mw 0x900000c 0xe3e02000
mw 0x9000010 0xe2833c9d
mw 0x9000014 0xe58326c0
mw 0x9000018 0xeafffffe
mw 0x900001c 0x2200f300
arm7_go
arm7_stop
/exit
iRecovery -f iBSS221.dfu
iRecovery -s
go
/exit
iRecovery -f iBoot221.img3
iRecovery -s
go
/exit
You may need to unplug your iPod after sending each iBSS, also.
(SORRY I DON'T HAVE PICTURES FOR THIS STUFF. I DON'T HAVE AN iPOD TOUCH 2nd Generation So i showed you as much as I could without it)
14.) Your iPod should now be booting; enjoy you tethered jailbreak.
I'd like to give credit to jfb392 from iPod Touch Fans and AriX from the same site.

Duffman, Put your iPod into DFU mode while it looks like it's bricked. Your ipod is not bricked. and the "No ipod found" is because your not in DFU mode.
Hmm... I've encountered a problem in the last step.
ReplyDeleteI have put both iBSS211.dfu where I only had 1 before and I still get the "Memory Image not Valid" error.
Help, Please?
Help? My ipod is refusing to go white screen whatever i do. Ive tryed forcing the DFU, but im already defiantly sure it's in it anyway...
ReplyDelete...

"f*** my iPod is stuffed wont turn on windows is not rekonizing it"
ReplyDeleteYour ipod wont turn on because it's the patched ISPW making it not turn on, This is normal just follow my DFU Troubleshoot.
SH*T helping a friend with his and when restoring custom firmware it just keeps sayin on itunes "the ipod can not be restored. An unknown error has occurred (1604). PLEASE HELP
ReplyDeleteThanks, you guys helped me a lot. I am extremely computer literate, and I was wondering why it isn't working, but you MUST have 2.2.1, not 2.2.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS!
I am at step 10 and I get Got USB
ReplyDeleteGot USB
No iPod/IPhone Not Found!!!!
I got my firmware at 2.2.1.
Someone help me please
If you get "No iPod Found" then your not in DFU mode.
ReplyDeleteI put it in DFU mode but it sitll says it cant find my iPod. there is no iTunes thing on my iPod's screen either, it's completely black, and I know it's DFU mode.
ReplyDeleteI'm stuck on step 10.
Any help, please.

this is the problem i am having... it's gay
hey jeffery, in ur OriginalFW.ipsw take out the .ipsw and it will be fixed!
ReplyDeleteI found out on my own how to fix if iRecovery won't find your iPod, even if its in DFU.
ReplyDeleteI am on Vista x64, by the way.
What I did was uninstalled Libusb. Then I went to where iRecovery.exe was, right clicked it, and went to properties. Then go to compatibility and checked "Run this program as an administrator".
shabzco could you go to command promt highlight it and send it to jeff_battersby@hotmail.com i just wana know egsactly what the cmd prompt should look like after that copy and paste thing
ReplyDeleteut just so you know i am running windows xp
oh should have put this in before could you give ur e-mail so i could talk to you via msn instant messaging?
ReplyDeletei am starting the think the ispw file that is now original.fw is corrupt i'll re download it and get back to you

ReplyDeletesorry for not really commenting, i mean, you made an excellent and specific tutorial. But i have encountered problems. Cydia not only was not on my home screen, but the ipod doesnt seem to be jailbroken. When i was to restore it, there was no patched file in the xpwn folder. Please Help
ReplyDeletei am on step 10
ReplyDeleteC:\Documents and Settings\The Boss\Desktop\iRecovery>iRecovery -f iBSS211.dfu
