THANKS!!!!!! love it~!
Does it really work fine?
Yes it works perfectly.
Thanks, but the link does not hilight on my browser. Please can send it to me
Thanks
You mean this link doesnt work for the download: http://blog.alltechrelated.com/files/SetupQuickFreedom.exe?
Does not work everytime i open it its loading error
You may have a corrupted install. Make sure the program is uninstalled in control panel, then go to your c drive and find the QuickFreedom folder – delete it. For some reason the uninstaller missed these on mine and kept causing a “form loading error”. Resolved now.
Hmmm… try redownloading it. Maybe the file got corrupted as you downloaded it. What type of Windows are you on? XP?
why do i get an error when restoring my ipod?
You guys rule.
It works like magic.
2 points though:
* If you have a localised windows, you will need to create a directory “Desktop” next to the directory representing your desktop in your language (in c:\users and settings\myuser\)
* Unlike a comment I’ve read, you don’t lose your music library. At the very end of the process, when Itunes comes up saying it has detected a new Ipod “do you want to restore it from original Ipod backup or syncronise a new one”, just say this is a new Ipod, and when it asks for the new name, give it the name you already had on your ipod. All the content will be redownloaded to you Ipod !
Good luck, have fun !
I have the white screen on my ipod but my itunes won’t recognize my ipod? how am i supposed to restore??
i did everything right, but when i restored it, the ipod screen went black. then it said an error occured (13).
and i did it several times and started the jailbreakover but it kept happening, help…
nvm!!!! i went in troubleshooting, then, it said to download Originl firmware, so i did then i downloaded the custome firmware then it worked.
Does anyone know what i can do??
Hold down both buttons on your iPod/iPhone until it goes off, then plug it into the computer and let go of the power button BUT KEEP holding the other button. Keep holding it until your computer recognizes it. It should be restored then.
quickfreedom recognizes my ipod in recovery mode. But when i open itunes and my ipod is plugged in with the white screen it doesn’t recognize it at all so i can’t put the custom firmware on it. Do i need to have my ipod restored to factory state before i begin this?
I had the same problem as sebastian but cant seem to figure out how to fix it.
Has anyone had a successful install with Vista 64-bit? LibUSB appears to be only for Win32.
I have an Ipod touch second generation, but I dont know if i should believe it.
does it really work?
i am having trouble getting my ipod into DFU mode for some reason, does anyone know why this might be happening?
im running it on a 64 bit with vista if that helps at all
beautiful.. werx fer mee!!!!! love it… but now im trying to get the 5×5 apps on my screens and the theme changed and the keyboard to be green when i type.. how do i go about doing just thoes? or what do i need to get… please help…
if you do the jailbreak without the pre-jailbreak
will the ipod and all the jailbroke app. work?
What pre-jailbreak are you talkiing about?
[...] is the developers release notes: (if you have Windows, use QuickFreedom!) Untetherizer Version 1.1 Tiger Support [...]
works great thanks great job
Just tried this on my new iPod Touch. Was scared it would go pear shaped but it worked perfectly.
Many thanks.
Trevor
Do you have Windows Vista??!
Glad it worked for you guys!
ok so it worked but i turned it off and it won’t turn back on, it’s just stuck on the apple logo, so i plugged it in to see and now it just keeps making that “plugged in” noise….btw i had installed tethered and semi-tethered jailbreaks before this which lowered my capacity to 6.74GB can anyone help plz, how can i start ALL over, maybe?
Matt, you’re going to weant to restore it to factory settings. To do this, firstly turn your iPod completely off by holding down both buttons on the iPod, the home button and the on/off button. Once it has gone off KEEP holding down the two buttons, plug it into the computer and when you hear the plugged in noise, let go off the on/off button but keep holding the home button.
Eventually the restore picture with the cable and the iTunes logo should come up. Then just restore from iTunes like normal.
whats DFU mode. lol noob
It is a state that you put your iPhone/iPod Touch in. It makes it as if you just got it from the ‘factory’. Here is a guide on how to enter DFU mode: http://blog.alltechrelated.com/iphone-ipod-touch/how-to-enter-dfu-restore-mode/

It keeps saying LiBUSB not installed even after I installed it. help. I have Window 7 on trial

[...] is the developers release notes: (if you have Windows, use QuickFreedom!) [...]
[...] THIS IS THE UNTETHERED VERSION OF THE JAILBREAK MEANING YOU HAVE TO HAVE IT PLUGGED INTO THE COMPUTER FO R EACH REBOOT. HOWEVER THERE IS AN UNTETHERD VERSION: FOR MAC OR WINDOWS [...]
why does creating firmware take so long???
should i keep waiting or interrupted the process??
thanx b4
It shouldn’t take too long. Leave it for 5 minutes and if it hasn’t finished, interrupt it and try again.
When selecting creating firmware it just hangs at 1%. I waited for 15 minutes to see if it would create the custom firmware, but no joy. Any assistance would be appreciated
Try redownloading it and reintalling it. Otherwise, use Quickpwn to jailbreak your iPod: http://blog.alltechrelated.com/2009/04/12/ipod-to...
Quickpwn is made by the Official dev team and will probably work better. I would immediately try with Quickpwn.
Works, thanx!!!!
is this acutally untethered? because up there it says tethered
It is actually untethered. Can you tell me where it says tethered so I can change it please?
my ipod dosnt work at all now it wont turn on it wont evn glow up wen i plug it in and its not in tht dfu mode or w.e. cause i already restarted it
Try doing these exact steps: http://blog.alltechrelated.com/iphone-ipod-touch/...
Help me! I jailbroke my ipod touch (version2.2.1, 2G, 32gb) with this, and cydia worked fine, but when i went to the installer that came with it, it said I was forbidden to view featured, and just about anything! How do I get Installer to work???
Installer has been discountinued by the creators, RiPDev. Everyone uses Cydia now. I wouldn't worry about making Installler work.
For some reason I can't install LIBUSB but I can download the Firmware, however, I can see that it installed on my C drive. I don't know what I did wrong, I'm using XP but I changed the compatibility part by: checking off run this program and selecting Windows XP sp2. I'd appreciate any help you guys can give me.
nvm i just had to re-download it
ok every time i click Create firmware a messege pops up that says "Error creating Firmware" what do i do???
Try rebooting your computer and if that doesn't fix it, re-download it.
i cant find the original firmware?!?!
Download your firmware from here then: http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
Can u guys give me a step by step process?..my itouch is new..and im not that good with techy stuff..and another thing..can i copy the files on my iTouch to other pc’s?..like music, vids etc?..thanx alot!
If you’re iPod Touch is new ie the 2nd or 3rd generation iPod Touch, DONT USE THIS PROGRAM. Use Blackra1n which is for OS 3.1.2. Is easier than this one.
BUT if you have a 3rd gen, it is a tethered jailbreak meaning you have to run a program on your computer whilst the iPod is plugged in to reboot it into jailbroken mode after shutting it off completely. 2nd and 1st gen don’t have this problem.
