says i need to restore my iPhone before doing this? if thats true i will lose all my contact information, etc.. i'd really rather not put all my contact info in again if i do not have to, is this the only way?

edit: i decided to try it, i got to the step in iBrickr where it says power it back on in restore mode, when the gray Apple appears hold the power and home button until a yellow triangle appears. that never appears.. just turns off and back on a lot..

As long as you have synced that information, it will "re-install" that information at the next sync. I have been hearing a few people saying that they can't get ibrickr to work now.......what phone software version do you have?

Just go here.

And download the GUI installer of Installer.app. It does everything for you, including jailbreaking your iPhone.

If your phone is acting all wonky, do a hard reset. Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the power off slider comes up. Slide it off. Wait a bit, then press the power button to start it up. AppTap works with all three versions of iPhone software, so no worries there.

ok this seemed to work better except now im at the end of the process of AppTapp, and my phone automaticly turned off, and AppTap says Completed but the progress bar is only about 4/5 full and its not moving..should I hit Close?

edit: ok I have the installer icon, am I gettinga ll the same installer options and aps that iBrickr gets or are all of these programs different?

What do you download to mod if you have windows XP?

Is this working yet with version 1.0.2 and iTunes 7.4.1.2? It tells me that I need to upgrade my firmware.
