Do Not Use Spirit with iTunes 9.2

Today, I mistakenly tried to JB an iPad 3.2 with iTunes 9.2 and true enough it does not work!


Then, I noticed the following statement at Spirit website.
What's Spirit?
  • Spirit is an untethered jailbreak for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch on certain firmware versions.
  • Spirit is not a carrier unlock.
  • If you currently are using a tethered jailbreak, you have to restore to use Spirit. Do not upgrade if you use an unlock on an iPhone 3G or 3GS. (You can, however, restore to 3.1.2 if you have SHSH blobs for that version.)
    • (If you mistakenly ran Spirit despite using a tethered jailbreak, try these instructions.)
Requirements
  • Any iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch on firmware 3.1.2, 3.1.3, or 3.2.
  • An activated device: one not stuck on the Connect to iTunes or Emergency Call screen.
  • Any version of iTunes 9 earlier than 9.2
  • Syncing with iTunes before trying this is highly recommended.

New Accessories for my iPad

Bought yesterday and today two accessories for my iPad.


The first one is the Carbon Fibre which protects the back of the iPad. After 20% discount the price is about RM 72.00. Bought during the Epi Centre Mac Discovery Fair in Pavillion.







Its quite easy to stick the Carbon Fibre to the iPad. We only need to apply carefully around the edges of the Apple Logo. I started from the Apple Logo outwards.






The second accessory is the 4-way privacy filter. I saw this kind of filter in Japan but the price is quite exhorbitant i.e. RM 300++.
The one shown below is about RM 183.20 after 20% discount (Originally RM 229). I need to pay another extra RM 10 to ask for their services to apply on my iPad.
The "old" screen protector need to be remove. I asked the customer service guy to keep the old screen protector back on the plastic so that I can re-use it back (if required one day).












At a certain angle you will not be able to see it clearly. That's the reason for privacy filter.

How To Put Your iPhone into DFU Mode?





What is the difference between Restore and recovery Mode?
Recovery Mode : Recovery Mode is a state of iBoot that is used during standard upgrades and restores. As iBoot is active, it does not allow you to downgrade your device’s software. Also, unless it is ‘pwned,’ it will not allow custom firmware to be flashed.
DFU Mode : DFU Mode is a special mode where the device can still interface with iTunes, yet it does not load the iBoot. The screen will appear totally black in DFU mode, so you can’t guess whether the device is in DFU or powered down from simply looking at the screen. Because iBoot and the OS are not loaded this exploit makes us able to downgrade your iPhone firmware or upgrade with a custom firmware created by Pwnage tool.
How to put your iPhone in recovery mode :
  1. Turn the device completely off and disconnect it from cable/dock.
  2. Hold down the home button.
  3. While holding down the HOME button connect to a computer with a cable (easiest) or dock.
  4. Keep holding down the home button until you see a connect-to-itunes screen You are now in recovery mode.
To escape Recovery Mode and power the phone off simply hold down power and home buttons for ten seconds.

How to put your iPhone in DFU mode :
  1. Connect your iPhone to your computer.
  2. Turn iPhone off.
  3. Hold power and home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
  4. Release power but keep holding home until the computers beeps (observed on a PC) as a USB device is recognized.
  5. A few seconds later iTunes should detect your iPhone.
  6. If the Restore Logo is present on the screen, you are in Recovery Mode, not DFU.
Another step-by-step Source taken from iClarified, click --> HERE
DFU means Device Firmware Update. If a restore using Recovery Mode doesn't work you will want to use DFU Mode as a last resort. When placing your iPhone into DFU Mode it does not load the OS before attempting the restore

To put the iPhone into DFU mode so you can do an iTunes firmware restore follow these steps: Step One
Open iTunes and connect the iPhone to your Mac.
Step Two
Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time.
Step Three
After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.

The iPhone screen will remain black like this:
NOTE***: It may take a few attempts to get your iPhone into DFU mode. Generally, I hold down both buttons then release the Home button just before I think the Apple logo would appear. If you are still holding both buttons down and you see the Apple logo you are holding them down for too long!
