DOWNGRADE OFFICIAL 3.0 or 3.0.1 FIRMWARE BACK TO 2.2.1 for Iphone and Ipod touch

    Honestly I haven’t tried it downgrading from 3.1.2 to 2.2.1. I am assuming it will not work. But try it. Let me know. Also read the description on right side of the video. You will find everything there. And since you are at 3.2.1 with 5.11.07 baseband so after downgrading u will only be able to use AT&T sim not Tmobile. Details are written in decription. Also please know that it’s not that useful to downgrade now because All applications currently are based to work with 3.x FW. Not with 2.2.1

    Allright friend if you have an iPod 2g then I have written instructions for it in the descripion. Please read all the way towards end. You will be using Redsnow. Just read and follow it correctly. Feel free to ask.

  • ahhyooou - Dec 15, 2009 at 10:37 am

    … i also tried to do it with redsnow 7.1.. there i got to the whitescreen but when i tried to restore fw 2.2.1 with shift+click it started but there was no apple logo and status bar.. after a few minutes the only thing which happened was that itunes showed an error(i dont remember which one but it wasnt 13xx but something like 160x ). then the whitescreen stayed and i had to restore the 3.0 fw..
    please HELP!
    additional note: i used firefox to download winpwn but it found the 2.0.2 fw!

  • Camel2309 - Dec 15, 2009 at 1:06 pm

    Hey TurkUlkucu!! did this work for your error 28?? same problem here!!

  • xtremejoe35 - Dec 15, 2009 at 1:36 pm

    well you helped me a little bit so thank you for that. I had updated my firmware to 3.1.2 but before I had an jailbroken 2.2.1 but I still had the custom firmware so I just put it in DFU mode using quickfreedom (a good program) 1.2.0 it prejailbroke it then I just held shift n selected the custom firmware and it worked.

  • emac2299 - Dec 15, 2009 at 2:12 pm

    Put iPhone in DFU mode meaning HOld home and power button together for 10 seconds then just release power button but keep holding home button for another 10 seconds . Now you will see your itunes will detect your iphone in recovery mode and your iphone screen should be totally black . Press ok and press Restore . After restoring Jailbreak and Unlock with new ‘Blackrain’ jailbreak method. Video is available on my channel. Blackrain jailbreaks and Unlocks on 3.1 & 3.1.2.

  • TurkUlkucu - Dec 15, 2009 at 2:51 pm

    I get unknown error 28, will this method work for me to get out of the recovery screen. Cuz cant restore my iphone whatsoever. at a normal way.

  • emac2299 - Dec 15, 2009 at 3:29 pm

    Please make sure to check ATT as your carrier when you run winpwn, even though you have some other network.

  • daze720 - Dec 15, 2009 at 4:14 pm

    when its creating the custom firmware it just closes why is this??

  • emac2299 - Dec 15, 2009 at 4:24 pm

    Please note that Redsnow only supports 3.0 firmware file. That’s why it is saying that message. I don’t have 3.0 file for iPod touch in description. Please take it from my other video on my channel.

  • TheXschris - Dec 15, 2009 at 5:15 pm

    But dude when i open redsn0w and browsing it with the firmware it dosent work and i used the firmware from ur description. It just says Unable to recognize IPSW!!!
    PLEASE HELP!!!

  • emac2299 - Dec 15, 2009 at 6:09 pm

    2.0.2 firmware for Ipod Touch 2nd gen does not exist. It was never developed. If you have an Ipod 2nd gen so please follow the instructions at the end of the written description. You dont have to follow this video anymore. Just follow that what is written at the end of the descrption and you will be all set.

  • TheXschris - Dec 15, 2009 at 6:56 pm

    Thanks, but QuickPwn dosent accept firmware 2.2.1 on ipod touch 2 gen so can u put in a firmware 2.0.2 for ipod touch 2 gen in ur description?

  • emac2299 - Dec 15, 2009 at 7:02 pm

    If you want to downgrade an iPod touch 2g then no need to follow this video. You can follow the instructions written in the description at the end.
    Now about downloading firmware. So you have to use Interet Explorer to download my firmware files and you will get it in Ipsw format. Not in winrar.

  • TheXschris - Dec 15, 2009 at 7:19 pm

    Nice video, i like it:) Thankyou thousand times:):):) I have a lot of question for you…
    Can i be able to download a firmware version 2.0.2 for 2gen ipod touch?
    Can you lay out a firmware for ipod touch 2gen?
    Why do every firmware i download, loads in Winrar archive? I want it in itunes so it works.
    Please answer as fast as you can:)
    Thanks:)
    P.S Your volume on your video is jumping up and down some thimes XD
