Solution to failed to jailbreak < error code : 1). Could any one suggest solution.
The solution is simple: ACTIVATE YOUR IPHONE NORMALLY, THEN JAILBREAK W/SPIRIT. IF YOU DON’T WANT AT&T, USE sn0wBreeze and select the option to hacktivate (ACTIVATE NORMALLY WITH ANOTHER CARRIER)
sn0wBreeze IS BETTER ANYWAY
Fix doesn’t work, still get the error message, and Windows seven home premium says dl.exe, MobileSync.exe has stopped working.
