[j_dog]

Would someone walk me thru this jailbreak process ? I don,t understand what i've been reading

Wrong forum.

But, it's pretty simple:

1) Make sure you're at firmware v1.1.1 (1.1.2 procedure is more difficult. 1.1.1 works fine)
2) Make sure you're connected via Wifi (and not edge)
3) Open the web browser and go to www.jailbreakme.com
4) Scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Install app snapp"

Your browser will crash and a couple minutes later you'll see an installer progress bar pop up. Let the install finish and then you'll have a new app on your home screen called "Installer". Use that to install new programs. Must-haves are ssh, BSD subsystem, term-vt100, vnsea, apollo, and probably summerboard.

doesn't that void the warranty?

[mattismyname]

Voiding warranties is fun.

I don't mind voiding the warranty. I just don't want to go back to Microsoft because of an Apple !

I downloaded the older software. How do I put it on there ?


Thank you kindly for your help !

lol, ah well then... Not fun when warranties expire a day before you break the device.

O.K.... It is jailbroken. I installed the shh. I can not get synaptec to install the ipod convenience package. It says I need the shh. Amorek wont recognize this thing. i am having trouble mounting it.

What am I doing wrong ??

I think what you did wrong was jailbreak it. wait for the dev kit.
