Please advise... I am attempting to Jailbreak my phone using the sticky. (WinPawn). I am following the directions specifically. While midthrew unlocking, the program crashes. It tells me there are 'script errors' and then closes. :angry:

My phone currently works, but not jailbroken. I want to try and 'unlock' so I can use this phone with a prepaid SIM. Currently I am an ATT subscriber. I have tried resetting my computer, and downloading another version of WinPawn. Can anyone help?:2cool:

Which phone do you have? The first iPhone or iPhone 3G?

Which step were you at when it crashed? The actual unlocking/jailbreaking part?
-You say your iPhone still works? Your lucky bro cause usually if something like what happened to you occurs your iPhone would go to this screen:foot:

Now that is odd:gasp:. . .
-Cause I just got finished reading on the WinPwn site on how its new version has fixed that bug. . .try deleting the version you have now, restarting your computer, then installing a fresh copy of WinPwn :laugh2:

Let me know if the problem still persist:wink:

make sure you have enough ram on your computer... this helped my issue when i went through the process it would crash right before it got finished. So i read on a website that you need a certain amount of ram (memory) on your computer for the process to complete

ok so i read where you were having trouble unlocking/jailbreaking your v1 iphone... i had this problem a few days ago trying to use winpwn... i suggest you use quickpwn... it is fast,easy,safe and it unlocks too...

theres a link for quickpwn... it unlocked my v1 and jailbroke it without having to restore since i was already on 2.1
