7. chow, December 30, 2007:

   i’ve given this 2 separate tries now. after i downgrade to firmware 1.1.1 my ipod touch, touch screen doesn’t work. it is virtually a brick in 1.1.1. i have to plug into itunes and upgrade to 1.1.2 for it to be usable again. does anyone else have this problem? (i haven’t read about it anywhere)

   truly unfortunate… i would love to jailbreak this thing, but it appears that i can’t.

8. tai, December 30, 2007:

   u aint suppose to download da firmware on ur itouch, u have to download on a computer

9. doug, December 30, 2007:

   how do ug et into recovery mode?

10. tai, December 31, 2007:

    look at the instruction under recovery mode

11. Random guy, December 31, 2007:

    When i press the package it comes up with itunes and when i press restore my ipod, it just restored the 1.1.2. I think i did step 3 wrong but i dont know what it means. I got mozilla firefox, incase it effects anything, just pls help me!

12. DayDay, January 1, 2008:

    if i downgrade would this erase all my music and videos and photos off of my itouch ?

13. tai, January 2, 2008:

    yea

14. Andy, January 2, 2008:

    So I finally got the downgrade to work. I had been trying the download through Safari and it somehow unzipped or modified the firmware into a folder with several items as content – that all didn’t work when trying to select it as the restore firmware through iTunes. When I used Firefox to download the package it was downloaded as a single ‘package’ and this single file then worked to select when doing steps 3-4. Hopefully this will help some people out there. Does anyone know why, from a technical aspect, downloading the firmware through Safari is different than downloading it through Firefox?

15. Jesh, January 2, 2008:

    I got the download to work in Firefox as well. It’s named “iPod1,1_1.1.1_3A110a_Restore.ipsw”. I can confirm that if you use Safari on OS X, Safari will move the file to the Downloads folder and unpack it into a folder that’s probably not usable for iTunes recover.

    My problem is on step 3. I hold shift while clicking on the first “Restore” button, a new window pops up and simply says I’ll loose all the data and the newest software will be installed. Either I can click “Restore and Update” or “Cancel”. Once again I hold shift, this time while clicking “Restore and Update”. Next screen says I’m downloading 1.1.2. I never get a new window that asks for a file I’ve downloaded.

    Any ideas guys? Thanks.

16. Jesh, January 2, 2008:

    I got it. Hold OPTION! Maybe shift is the key on PC. I dunno.

17. Jesh, January 2, 2008:

    But really, everyone should be following the Kent Brewster walkthrough. It’s amazing!

47. Alex, January 6, 2008:

    After I jailbreak my ipod, will I still be able to update it to 1.1.2? or do I have to leave it at 1.1.1?

48. Kent Brewster, January 6, 2008:

    You’ll be able to update it to 1.1.2 and jailbreak from there if you install OktoPrep first, Alex. Please see other instructions on this site, or The Well-Tempered iTouch for details.

    how do i save the download so i can open it?

69. Leroice, January 8, 2008:

    Hey guys if you’re downloading from Safari. Just delete the .zip extension from the file so that it reads iPod1,1_1.1.1_3A110a_Restore.ipsw. The problem is in unzipping the contents of the .zip file.

    Just follow the instructions as posted afetr doing this and the firmware will install just fine.

70. Paul, January 8, 2008:

90. Dejinco(Nigeria), January 11, 2008:

    I found a way to downgrade without loosing anything and I mean anything. I downloaded the 1.1.1 firmware like was told from this forum and instead of clicking shift and restore I pressed shift and update and it allowed me browse to the file. and i clicked it and it downgraded the firmware to 1.1.1. Altough I did this with the interent switched off it worked like magic and I did not even after to put my ipod touch in restore mode. It automatically did everything for me and downgraded. Itunes started screaming that I should update when it finished and restarted.

    Wow! I am happy.

    Dejinco

99. Billy Tombs, January 13, 2008:

    Anyone having the trouble of the 1.1.1 firmware through Safari. If you move the .zip file out of the trash and trash the folder that Safari tried to decompress. Then when you hold down option (on a mac) and you select the .zip file in iTunes, iTunes decompresses it for you and begins the install.

    However, when I did that and ran the installer, I get an error and iTunes can’t connect it.

100. Billy Tombs, January 13, 2008:

     Oh, and now my touch is stuck in recovery mode. Anyone know how to tackle that one?

164. Jacob, January 31, 2008:

     It realy isnt hard to follow, very simple steps. If you can’t manage it, and can’t be bothered to read anything else and just expect to get spoonfed, then you shouldnt be doing this anyway.

     and for the love of god why do you people insist on abriviating every word in the english language, and talking like yo is ganster innit.
