i have a firmware 1.1.5 ..can i update my ipod touch with this link...and will it void my apple warranty of 1 year?? plzz help

Anonymous said...

after i download it, do i have to directly open it? what do i do next? sorry, im just a newbie.. please help..

kenneth love ipod touch said...

what to do if you have downloaded it already

FreeAppleiPodTouch said...

@vineet: No, it won't void your warranty if you download it only if you jailbreak it then it will void your warranty.

@Anonymous & Kenneth love ipod touch: After downloading it you need to launch iTunes, shift-click the "Restore" button, and select the iPod Touch 2.1 firmware file. Then your iPod Touch will be updated.

To everyone else: Please click the Buzz Up link on Yahoo and vote this story up. Thanks!

On a Mac, hold down the "option" button and click on the Restore button in iTunes. Then select the .ipsw file. It should start configuring to 2.1. Then follow the steps to restoring your files by syncing with iTunes.

I cant find the .ipsw file.

Hi there,

I tried using this software, however when I updated it, an unknown error occured (5), and then my iPod was disconnected from iTunes and I can't do anything with it.

Is this meant to happen? Or did I do something wrong?

Please help ^O^!!

For anyone finding just a folder and various files inside instead of the needed .IPSW file, you have to use FIREFOX instead of SAFARI as safari auto unzips the file and you dont want that to happen.

I'm on a pc using itunes 8 trying to update my itouch 1.1.5 to 2.1. I downloaded the file, went on itunes, shift update, and chose the file. It extracted but keeps freezing on the Updating bar. What exactly do you have to do? Shift restore leads to an error 5.

What must we do after d-load the 2.1

PLEASE HELP....

Anonymous said...

I found it... after downloading 2.1 you just have to go to itune in the i-touch section and in order to upgrade it you must press CTRL and SHIFT at the same time and then clic on the upgrade icon... once that done you have to select the 2.1 firmware file and open it... ;)

Happily updated to 2.1 said...

Finally got it to work!
For those still have trouble, dl 2.1 (F137) from
http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
Open itunes, while holding down the shift key, press restore, select the file and wait!

(I updated from 1.15 to 2.1 using windows and iTunes version 7)
Don't unzip or do anything with the file you downloaded. It should work!

Good luck everyone!
