a million+1 thanks kiran!
Just installed your dl and am up and running w/ no probs!
This one work like a charm thanks a lot, looked everywhere, finally found it here, THANK YOU very much.
Likewise…worked perfectly…thank you!!!
Thank you guys! Hope you all enjoy your new found firmware 😉
Just to double check, by “preserves unlock capabilities” you mean that there is no baseband update, right? The baseband will remain unchanged, but you get the benefit of all the 2.2 features?
Thanks for creating this firmware!
deacen : Yes, absolutely! This firmware preserves the baseband update!
Just curious, kiran…is there a way to check the baseband after the fact? Did a web search on it but I didn’t find much that was very clear.
Yep! Check for Modem firmware… if it is 02.11.07, we are fine! Any other number and we are screwed! (For 3G iPhones).
Beautiful. Thx.
I have AT&T jailbroken 2.1 iphone 3G 16GB. Should I use this firmware? (with possible unlock in future). ?? Can someone upload it somewhere else, it is so slow.
Please check my other post for activated firmware.. If you are a legit iPhone user, you can use this firmware….

thanks man
but can i upgrade my jailbroken 2.1iphone 3g too with this firmware??????//
would there be any problem of the baseband related thing cause i use it in japan………
thanks again
subba : Yep, given that you pwned your firmware at 2.1, you can use this firmware 2.2 for legit iPhone users. If you don’t have an iPhone plan, check the other post which has activated firmware…..
Thanks for making this custom firmware available as I don’t have a MAC to make my own!
But I want to make sure I have it right don’t want to brick my iphone!
I have a 2.1 Rogers jailbroken iphone 3G. (which I jailbroke using QuickPwn)
I downloaded “iPhone1_2_2.2_5G77_Custom_Restore_ATT_1K.ipsw.001” from above & renamed the file to ipsw (simply deleted the 001 from the end, didn’t unzip or extract or use the freeware program you mentioned above to join the file or anything .. not sure what that meant), having done that it is now a “Apple Device Software Update File”. When I hit shift & press restore on itunes (itunes 8.0.2.20) – I can select the file – but then I pressed cancel.
Because I want to make sure is it really that simple? Is there anything I’m missing? You are sure this will work with Rogers? Anyone else a Rogers customer here & used this file & it worked?
Thanks again!
Jamie : you have to download all 3 files, join them and then use it. It is automatically renamed to .ipsw…
legit means you bought it already SIM activated right
thanks for the response Kiran
ok so I’m downloading the rest & will join…
but just to confirm, are you 99.9% sure this will work with my Rogers phone? Worse case, if it doesnt, I should be able to just factory restore right? Sorry, like I said, don’t want to brick!!
thanks
100% sure…If you manage to brick it with this firmware, then you should stick to stock firmware and no jailbreaking!
THANKS KIRAN IT WORKED FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
legit means you bought it already SIM activated right?
Works 100%
Yes, legit means : You signed a legally binding iPhone contract!
hi folks,

thanks for your reply and great work!
