How to downgrade from iPhone OS 3.0 to Os 2.0

Posted in: Apple, Mobile Software |

Here is a nice and easy tutorial to downgrade you iPhone OS 3.0 to OS 2.0

Step 1) Shut off your iPhone and then enter DFU mode. Instructions here.

Step 2) Restore your iPhone in iTunes to v2.2.1, 2.2, or such. Remember you will need to hold shift and click restore in Windows, Option-restore in OSX. If you need to locate the firmware to download, look here. If you need help on how to restore in iTunes read this guide.

Step 3) Your restore will get an error message. It should be one of these: 1011, 1013, 1015. If you get something less than 100, you did not enter DFU mode correctly and need to retry from step #1 of this guide. If you get 160x something else went wrong. The 1011, 1013, 1015 type error codes will be a failure to write the baseband and will be expected. After this, your iPhone will remain in recovery mode. Note: on 2g iPhone you probably should not get a restore error since the 2g baseband is not updated by the 3.0 update so there is no reason for the baseband update to fail.

Step 4) Windows Load quickpwn for Windows and select your device and run through the first 3 or so prompts until your iPhone resets.

Step 5) OSX:
iRecovery is a command line tool that requires you to install a library. For this, you are required to understand how to use the terminal. These instructions are *very clear* if you understand the terminal and shell commands. If you do not, this is not for you. Find a windows computer or someone that can help you. Teaching how to use the OSX term is way beyond the scope of this guide.

  1. Download and extract iRecovery. This is a console app to be run in terminal. Extract it with finder.
  2. Copy libusb-0.1.4.dylib to /usr/local/lib and chmod both iRecovery and the dylib to 755 using chmod 755 /usr/local/lib/libusb-0.1.4.dylib and chmod 755 iRecovery.
  3. In terminal, run iRecovery -s
  4. At the iRecovery prompt, type: fsboot
  5. Wait, iPhone should boot. If not, type fsboot a second time.
  6. ctrl-c or close the term. You are done with iRecovery.

Here is a more detailed set of instructions by Max:

  1. Download iRecovery
  2. Place both files on the Desktop
  3. Open terminal and type cd ~/Desktop
  4. Run command chmod 777 libusb-0.1.4.dylib
  5. Run command chmod 777 iRecovery
  6. Run command defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
  7. Run command killall Finder
  8. Navigate Macintosh HD > usr > local > lib
  9. Copy the file libusb-0.1.4.dylib into that folder
  10. Open a new terminal
  11. Drag-and-drop the iRecovery file into the Terminal so that you get a shortcut to it.
  12. Append -s to the end.
  13. Run command fsboot (i had to do it twice)
  14. If the phone starts up locket once again, just run through steps 10-13 again.
  15. When done, open terminal again and type defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
  16. Then run killall Finder once again and your done!

Step 6) Run through the quickpwn guides for your operating system. Depending on which OS you have, you will need to click next a few times and your iPhone should be reset. At this point, you should continue through quickpwn to finish the jailbreak of your iPhone.”

OK, us GSM32 have a few questions for the NIO manufacturer..

Q1 : Bluetooth on all the time ? Did you knew that your battery drains quicker if you have your Bluetooth connection always on ?
Nokia N95 8Gb is completely energy dry if you use it with the WiFi on for 3 hours. What happens if you forget to switch WiFi Off ?
“yay I won’t forget my phone in a cab, but wait, I’m out of battery, CRAP”

Q2 : You have to install security apps on your handset too.. Does NIO offer these apps for : Symbian S40, Symbian S60, Symbian S603rd, WM5.0, WM6.0 , WM 6.1, Palm ETC ?

Q3 : How about my notebook, do I have to leave it on for this to work ? A normal notebook battery keeps it on for 2 hours.. Some of us spend more than 2 hours only in traffic.

Q4 : Do you make apps for my notebook ? Mac OS X, Mac OS 8, Mac OS 9, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux ….. ETC ?

Q5 : If I have my phone and my NIO in my bag/purse/handbag/suitcase - if someone steals it, what is good NIO for ?

Oh…another gadget, for some useful , for some less useful. But one thing is sure, it would make a good keys/phone finder in the house :) .

Light up your life with Sony Ericsson’s stylish new T707 mobile phone

Add a touch of glamour to your day with the stunning new T707 mobile phone from Sony Ericsson. This innovative phone radiates style and glamour with its unique, eye-catching light effects and gesture control to guarantee you will never be left in the dark!

Miami, USA Ð 26th March 2009 Ð Sony Ericsson today announced its latest mobile phone, the T707, with tennis star and style icon Maria Sharapova, who perfectly epitomises the phone’s sleek and elegant qualities.

The T707 truly interacts with the user Ð it lights up when you receive a call and you can personalise the light settings to each of your friends, so you always know who wants you. If you are too busy to answer, simply end the call with a wave of your hand over the screen Ð you can also do the same gesture to snooze the alarm Ð your very own magic wand!

The T707 is my ultimate new accessory,” said Maria. “I am always on the go and I need a phone that is easy to use, and of course chic as well! I never miss a call with the eye-catching light effects and personalised pulsation settings and I love the fact that I can just wave my hand to mute a call using the gesture control. I can also use my practical and stylish Bluetoothª Headset HBH-PV715 to take my calls, check my emails and blog to my website from the phone. It’s great to have a phone that looks good but also lets me keep up-to-date with everything I need.

Perfect pixels for every pose
Coordinate the T707 to any outfit, as it comes in a rainbow range of three clam shells to suit every mood. Whatever you wear will be perfectly captured by the 3.2 megapixel camera, making sure that you stand out on screen as much as you do in real life. The photos can then be uploaded to your personal social networking site using the HTML web browser, so you and your friends can keep up to date wherever you are.

Customise your phone like your clothes
With the T707 you will never be left behind in the style stakes, as the 2.2 inch screen is waiting to be customised to your individual taste. The changing wallpaper themes will ensure that you are never caught wearing clashing colours! The theme also changes from day into evening, which is perfect if, like Maria, you need to match with everything from tennis whites to a little black dress.
