In the command line version, you will find a new
option "-b" be very careful with that!
I take no responsability if you brick your phone!
ZiPhone -b will downgrade bootloader from 4.6 to 3.9,
flash 4.03.13_G baseband version and
unlock it (in one shot!).
It worked for me on 2 ootb 1.1.2 phones.
It will work on 1.1.3 ootb phones too.
Other options are unchanged.
Do not forget to donate!
The future of ZiPhone will depend on you also !
If you can't code, or contribute in other ways,
just donate.
I think we won't need another version till the next firmware release :)
Namaste!
Peace out.
(To quote my favourite blogger)
Important:
For people who get stuck on apple logo.
Try to use: ZiPhone -v -b
That solved the problem for many people.

lol I had just said to a friend "ZiPhone 2.0 is coming out soon". Then I refreshed. And there it was! :P
Dling now.
Just to ask a simple question, ziphone v2 unlocks all iphones now?
cheers
(donated)
no wonder the old links don't work anymore. cheers to you!
The read me and about info is saying version 1.0. Is that right?
I get stuck at the apple logo screen and the command prompt says
Please wait 45".
what am I doing wrong ?
Hi Zibri,
Cptn Corneta again. I really like what you're doing. And I appreciate it.
About the new bootloader downgrade option, as I understand it, geohot is working on a modified 4.6 bootloader, which has a patched seczone and is 'unlocked' by default. It seems however that it will only work on bootloader 4.6 and not on 3.9; on the assumption that it will ever be released, or that an entirely opensource replacement bootloader is released, will be able to just re-upgrade the already downgraded 3.9 bootloader (or for people with the original 3.9 BL on their iPhones) to this new bootloader?
There is something else that is a little bit striking for me. On the past you said that you didn't want anyone's money, and that you wouldn't take donations and even pointed the finger over those who did. But now, after the insistence of people on your blog, you setup a paypal account and now you are even encouraging everyone to donate. Isn't this a little double standard? Please don't get me wrong on this as I am not attacking you, I just want to know if you changed your position entirely or something else happened?
Best regards and keep up the good work.
does 2.0 let us use Ibrickr?
Zibri, what method does Ziphone use to unlock BL 3.9 iPhones?
Is it similar to anySIM 1.1.3? or Geohot's unlock?
YOU! Ziphone 1.0 crasched my phone, BUT 2,0 saved it.
NICE!
I just unlocked 2 iPhones using the new method, thanks!
you still didn't fix the bug where people get stuck at the apple logo
quick update though good job
Hey Frank, I am newbie to this, I have a 16gb iphone still in the box. Can you detail out some instructions? or just plug in the phone and follow instructions.?
Umm... can anyone tell me to use ziPhone on a mac? I'm running Leopard and really want to use it... and can't seem to find the "mac version". Thanks in advanve
First of all thanks a lot for your effort and help all the iPhone community.
I just want you to ask about don't forget people with 3.9 bootloader and have bad imei, and to upgrade to 1.1.3 didn't be useful.
A lot of people like me still with a brick iphone and don't know what to do... So please don't forget us, we need your help.
Thanks again for what Geohotz and you have done.
Stuck on the Apple Logo....
Tested on 2 Phones, 3 versions, same results..Any Ideas?
this is great news all!
if i wanted to upgrade..
so if i have a 1.0.2 unlocked phone, do i have to manually install 1.1.3 restore image?
then run ziphone2.0?
In the past i believed in teams.
I thought my ideas could be used for good and for release.
The i realized that they were asking for money and keeping things for theirselves.
Now I am on my own.
Relying on the help of a few friends and trying to put together a working product.
I got nothing in the past.. only insults (and more will surely come).
Every tool out so far (iphuc included) is based on the work of others.
And everybody is free to choose a tool to use.
I just said, if you think ZiPhone is useful, USE IT... and thank me.
I spent the last week no-stop working on this.
And I am not asking for anything.
If someone feels to donate he can.
I have been asked by many... so I put the donate button.
Now stop dramas and blaggers.
Namaste :)
Thanks Zibri! Great works!
One simple question from beginner:
Does an 1.0.2 unlocked iphone need "Virginize" first before upgrading to 1.1.2 or 1.1.3 and then Ziphone?
Thanks!
Zibri, what method does Ziphone use to unlock BL 3.9 iPhones?
Is it similar to anySIM 1.1.3? or Geohot's unlock?
(same question as justin)
Zibri you are wery quick :)
anyway - thanks
Mate while I was in MMi, I have always favored your work and promoted the first patched anySIM in ALL my guides.
Keep up the great work!
Namaste :o)
I'm stuck with the apple logo, running ziphone stops at Searching for iphone... and nothing happens. I have restored in iTunes to 1.1.3 (I have a 1.1.2 OTB). Did I miss anything?
zibri, you are legend.
now, how to upgrade from 1.0.2? help!
hey zibri, r u indian?
Mate while being on the ModMyiFone band wagon, I've always supported your work in ALL my guides from the time you patched the first anySIM1-1.
Cheers and Namaste to you :o)
Could anyone please outline in detail for the non technically adept writer how to use this software on a MBP with OSX 10.4.2 to unlock my iphone? I believe my iphone has the 1.1.3 version software. Thank you.
Could you make a IMEI changer for the 3.9BL. Thanks
hey zibri, r u indian?
When you run this app, do you continue to run itunes? Or do you shut it down along with any services that are running. ALso do you need a certain version of itunes?
@bas:
ZiPhone 2.0 uses the exploit found by geohot but it flashes the original 3.9 bootloader not a patched one.
I thought that was much safer.
1.0.2 Phone should need to be virginized only if you used the fisr iunlock to unlock them (the one that fucked many phones thanks to "dev team" and that iPhone-Elite fixed with virginizer thanks to Fred_ and a few others.
iPhone crashes at applelogo, anyone know how to fix?
@ernest:
Yes, it's recommended that you Virginize before you upgrade.
Nevertheless, I'm unaware whether with Zibree's method you need to Virginize or not.
i hav downloaded the 2.0 but its not runing i get a message "this application has failed to strart because the application confrigation is incorrect.reinstaling the application may fix the problem"....i am using a windows xp and i dont hav itunes ...so what the problem any help guys...

zibri, do we need to restore?
i hv 1.1.2OOTB with gunlock solution, so now i hv 1.1.3
do i need to restore ? or just run ziphone?
tkz my friend.. i will donate again
thanks that's what I wanted to know :) keep up the good work, cheers
doesn't the 1.1.3 fix the broken imei of the gay dev team?
1.0.2 UNLOCKED -> restore 1.1.3 -> Ziphone
work?
@Evaristo
Try putting your phone into Recovery Mode manually. The best practice is to hold the Power + Home button till the time it takes you to the Recovery Screen. Your phone will boot twice while your holding the two buttons at once.
P.S. Use iTunes 7.5
When using ZiPhone, do I have to
1. Keep iTunes running or disconnect iPhone from iTunes? Since it's automatically brought up when iPhone is connected.
2. When ZiPhone says "Entering recovery mode", does that mean I have to manually do it now or ZiPhone has done it for me?
Kinda confusing and I managed to brick my iPhone now with ZiPhone 2.0, which has never happened to me no matter how I upgrade/downgrade from 1.0.2, 1.1.1 to 1.1.2.
I'd be great to have all these clarified, wouldn't it?
Also stucked at the applelogo, any solutions for that?
hey,
looks great, but whats the story with a mac version?
thanks
Bravo zibri, fai bene a prendertela con chi diceva che non era vero che avresti sbloccato.
Neanche aggiorno la guida che ho fatto che rilasci una nuova versione lol.
c'รจ un unico problema, molti gli si blocca l'iphone alla mela, e dopo l'unica cosa che possono fare e ripristinare il firmware.
hey,
looks great,, whats the story with the mac version though??
thanks
OK LET ME HELP YOU GUYS OUT
I KNOW HOW FRUSTRATING THIS IS I HAD TO CAPE WITH IT MY SELF FOR 2 DAYS AND WENT TRHOUG 15 RESTORES AND I FINALLY GOT IT.
FIRST OF ALL ZIPHONE 1.2 WILL WORK WITH BOTH BOOTLOADERS. DISREGARD THAT ITS VERSION 1.0 IN THE README FILE
IF YOU GET STUCK WITH THE APPLE LOGO, HOLD BOTH POWER AND HOME BUTTONS FOR 30 SECONDS WITH YOUR PHONE DOCKED. DO A RESTORE IN ITUNES TO 1.1.3 (NO SHIFT KEY)
SO IN OTHER WORDS WHAT YOU NEED IS
1. PHONE IN 1.1.3
2. HAVE .NET FRAMEWORK 2 INSTALLED
DOWNLOAD IT FROM MICROSOFT WEBSITE)
3. ZIPHONE 1.2 MAKE SURE ITS EXTRACTED TO YOUR C DRIVE (C:\ZIPHONE)
4. ITUNES 7.5 AND 7.5 ONLY (IT DIDNT WORK FOR ME IN 7.4 OR 7.6)
THE GUI TENDS NOT TO WORK SO WE WILL USE THE COMMAND LINE
CLICK START RUN CMD
TYPE CD\
YOU SHOULD SEE C:\
TYPE CD ZIPHONE
TYPE ZIPHONE AND WHATEVER LETTER CORRESPONDS TO THE DESIRED ACTION (J A U) BUT PUT -V AT THE END (THIS WILL WORK AND GET YOU PASSED THE APPLE LOGO)
KEEP WATCHING YOUR PHONE AND THAT SHOULD DO IT.
GOOD LUCK GUYS
Wow. U R 3LT.
When I say stuck at apple logo I mean that ziphone does not go any further than Searching for iPhone and iTunes does not find the iPhone anymore. Will it help if I run ziphone -b -v? What is the risk if I do that? Any other solution apart from downgrading the bootloader?
Dear Z !
i appreciate the new versions ... but we will more happy if you fix the "Freeze apple logo" bug ...
thanks in advance
So is the unlock for 3.9 BL phones upgrade/restore resistant if a new firmware with new baseband firmware is released?
Thanks for the fast updates Z good work,
One question, is the 2.0 update for only the PC version, the mac version seems to do the exact same thing it was doing on 1.1, stuck at "Please wait 45"" and the apple logo. Need to restore my brick for the 6th time now.
Just wanted to say thanks. I've been following this for a while now.
I'm not concerned with all the "happenings" between teams and individuals since nobody else really knows what's happened but you. and it's your right to keep things to yourself if you want.
You've done an awesome job and good on you for continuing on and keeping us up to date!! Thousands and thousands of people are benefiting from you and Geo.
I hope that you'll be able to keep going and possibly work even closer with geo.
-> does this mean no 4.03 on 4.6? *tear* not sure if I want to jump on the downgrade BL bandwagon quite yet.
Don't listen to the people who hate on what your doing, take the positive and run with it.
again, Many thanks.
and. ppl running into issues. -> he's mentioned it before. but there are forums to get help. his blog isn't a help desk. http://hackint0sh.org/ would be a good place to get some help.
-> A Canadian that's quite pleased with your work.
Zibri It looks great, but I have the same issue on all my phones, and I have tested 3 versions.
The Jailbreak & Activation Fail because the phone gets stuck at the apple logo after restarting...
I've seen others are having this problem and thought I would ask you what the problem might be?
Right now I have gone back to doing them the long manual way.
Zibri whatsup bro? I dl'ed ur app... did u forget to put 2.0 in the about? and also, when upgraded from a 3.9BL otb to a 1.1.3, once running ZiPhone what boxes should be checked? Thanks a lot homie keep up the good work, were all extremely proud of you, and fuck that dude who said y r u asking for money all of a sudden, man, ur saving ppl hundreds, U DESERVE MUCH MORE!!

About to paypal you for this work, it's awesome. I just need to know the format for changing the IMEI...ziphone -i 01234567890 (not the real number I am using) doesn't seem to work.
thanks!
@ZIBRI
ok i just did zphone 2.0 everything work perfect. but when you follow this tutorial and add appsupport something messes up. i followed this tutorial to a tee. i don't it twice and same result once you finish copy the files over and power down the phone to reboot and power up again. it's stuck on the imfamous white apple logo. i have to put in recovery mode restore 1.1.3 via itunes and run ziphone 2.0 again. so ziphone does not seem to be compatible with adding appsupport for unsupported country unless i did something wrong but i followed the tutorial word for word. still a few bugs!!! so if you live in a unsupported country i wouldn't try ziphone method. ANY IDEAS ZIBRI PLEASE.

any help on this?
thanks in advance
is there any reason for you not to tell people if 3.9BL phones get unlocked with anysim (or similar) or ipsf (or similar) method ?
i ask this cause if its ipsf like method, people will need to backup the same files they needed to backup with geos ipsf like method, i guess.
Awesome tool.
Just used iTunes to restore 1.1.3 and then unlocked/activated my 3.9BL iPhone with ZiPhone on leopard.
I was getting the freezing on apple logo, but using the -v seemed to make it work.
Zibri the GUI about/readme file still says its 1.0 not 2.0
and in the GUI un option says its only for 4.6 BL
Hi
Many Thanks for your great job !!!
Do you think it's possible to create ZipPhone how install AnySim 1.3 o, the Iphone?
Because I have an Iphone with the "No Wi-Fi" pb (I guess it's an Hardware pb ...) I am not alone with this pb ....
I have install the 1.1.3 (BL 3.9) and unlock with ZipPhone 1.1 but after I can't install AnySim with Installer because he need wifi to download AnySIM :(
Please save my ! I don't want downgrade my Iphone to 1.0.2 :(
Thanks In advance
Julien
Sorry for asking this again, but I'm a newb when it comes to these things, how do I use ZiPhone on OSX? (as i said before.. I'm using Leopard)
zibri

I downgrade bootloader 16gb iPhone using Geo method used original 3.9BL as you did. Later i used ziphone to Jailbreak and activate
I used anysim 1.3 to unlock. Zibri is the new method different than anysim 1.3 method. should i undo my unlock?
Advice please!!!
Zibri the GUI about/readme file still says its 1.0 not 2.0
and in the GUI un option says its only for 4.6 BL
I feel stupid. Can't do anything.
Can't download 2.0 from any page.
Have no idea how to put my phone back to work.
Got my 1.1.2 OTB, that was Jailbraked but never unlocked before, and now has no IMEI, no WiFi no nothing. Just itunes logo and cable.
Can not restore software using iTunes 7.5 nor 7.4. Get error 1011.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!?????
I've been two days without working nor sleeping and I have 24hs more before sending my phone to Apple.
ANY MANUAL OUT THERE?
THANK YOU ZIBRI!!!!!!
bootloader downgrade worked for me ! :D
Zibri, If I have 3.9BL but no baseband (bbupdater seems not to work for me), Can I use this program to restore mi baseband? Or maybe is a problem in a seczone of my bootloader? In that case, what should I do?
@shawn:
IMEI changer works on any version NOW !
@zero:
I was in the team that gave you the virginizer!
Do you really think I would use the ipsf method !??!
Thanks for your efforts, but I'm stuck in APPLE LOGO and nothing appends.
Can you please solve this on your next release, or something wrong?
@keet
in 1.1.3 you DO NOT need to patch appsupport.
The problem with "unsupported countries" and the phone options (phone, sms) is fixed.
I live in an unsupported country and in 1.1.3 everything works right off the bat.
ZiPhone use all best methods together:
geohot bootloader exploit (but not with a patched bootloader, but with the original!)
for unlocking 4.03 i use the same method of AnySim 1.3.
The SECZONE is never touched by ZiPhone in any way.
ZiPhone is SAFE.
(maybe the bootloader dowgrade can be riskier.. but never failed so far!)
I would just like to say thanks for such a great application - You have no idea how many countless hours you've saved me (my phone stopped working and somehow got bricked, until i used ZiPhone which fixed it, jailbroke, AND unlocked it in under 2 minutes. I'll be sure to donate!
I tried ziphone -v -a -j -u without success. I'm stuck on the apple logo. The phone does not switch off either. I get the following message:

Before this I got the message saying it was working and I should wait 2min30. After more than 10 minutes I shut down the terminal and started again. any help will be appreciated
this is for the people who are stuck in the logo, it helpted me...
i had a 1.1.1 3.9, got stuck in the logo when trixing with the phone.
Uppgrade via Itunes to 1.1.3 and then: http://thedailymac.com/how-to-fix-repair-needed-on-the-iphone/
go from 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 (got a bad message in the end) after that run Ziphone 2.0 with u, a, j and verbose.
that did it for me.
Hope it works for you to.

I have a 3.9BL, previously unlocked using IPSF
I was on 1.1.2 + DEV softupgraded to 1.1.3
This morning, I upgraded/restored iPhone in iTunes to 1.1.3 and did run ZiPhoneGUI, so got jailbroken and activated, but : NO SIGNAL
I have tried everything, did thigns over 3 times, no signal ... ???
thx for help
ZiPhone worked great for me with 1.2, except for the issue with file access. It seems like using this doesn't fully jailbreak everything. iPhoneList and iPhoneBrowser have no access, nor can i login using Term-VT100.
Does 2.0 fix this issue at all? Or is there a patch that can be applied via installer to get file access back?
Thanks Zibri & ReVan on the 1.0.2 issue!
Since my phone was unlocked by others that I have no idea how it was done, I'd better "virginize" it first, though my IMEI is fine and not those "0049xxx...".
******* SUCCESS * SUCCESS ********
@Zibri:
I just tried V2.0 on my brand new 16GByte iPhone with 1.1.3 OOTB and BL 4.6!
I was successfully able to:
a) (j)ailbreak
b) (a)ctivate
c) (u)nlock
the phone.
Then i tried the -b option of ZiPhonev 2.0 (together with -v to get some feeling what's going on). After barely 2 minutes the 4.6 bootloader was downgraded to 3.9, the modem fw upgraded to 04.03.13_G - and unlocked!
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE UNLOCK!
