Step 3Jailbreak!
The original iTouch and iPhones were 'locked' and prevented any use outside Apple supported software and Phone services. Hence the hack using a .tiff exploit in Safari was coined using the term "Jailbreak".
Ok, now we have 1.1.1 installed? If not go Back and CHECK versions...
Setup:
Enable your WiFi and use or goto a WiFi enabled hotspot.
Disable you Autolock and time outs...
1. Open Safari
2. Goto http://jailbreakme.com/, Scroll down to the bottom, click ÂœInstall AppSnapp Safari will exit and youll return to your springboard. Slide to unlock, you are now jailbroken and are able to use the "Installer.app"...
3. Launch Installer.app (version 3). Click on the Install section at the bottom.
Troubleshooting:
jailbreaking your iTouch from 1.1.1 is easy. Bring up Safari on your iTouch and go here:
http://jailbreakme.com
Scroll to the very bottom, click Install AppSnap, and follow the prompts.
You'll see some loading going on, and then when your iTouch reboots, you'll see a new icon on your home screen,called -Installer-
Updated, 20080103: If you're seeing mysterious "cannot connect to your device" errors, you may be missing an /opt directory that needs to be installed in your root. I found details on macrumors.com that seem like they may help. I'm not totally clear whether this is a Mac-only problem, or an Intel vs. non-Intel problem; if it happens on PCs as well, I'm not sure where that "root" directory is. (thanks guys)
