How not to Jailbreak your Apple iPhone
Submitted by timmillwood on Sun, 07/27/2008 - 12:47
Over the last week I have found out about so many cool apps that can be installed on a Jailbroken iPhone such as mobile terminal and nes emulator. So I thought I would follow the tutorial on Lifehacker (http://tinyurl.com/5os854) and Jailbreak my iPhone.
Well... it didn't go to plan!
Firstly, the tutorial said to download bootloaders and the PwnageTool will ask for them. When I tried it, I did download the bootloaders but the PwnageTool did not ask for them.
Secondly, I used a third party iPod cable and not the original iPhone cable.
I think these are the two factors that caused my Jailbraking to fail.
