In my previous post I posted a jailbreak which required a lot of work. This jailbreak for iPod Touch 2.1 is completely GUI based. Just run the .exe after uncompressing the zip file and follow the on-screen instructions. It couldn’t get any simpler than this! :)
Download the GUI jailbreak by using any of the download links below:

Jailbreak iPod Touch 2.1
Jailbreak iPhone 3.12, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, or any iPod touch with blackra1n RC2
You can now fully jailbreak iPod Touch 2G!
May someone please enlighten me as to what this J.B actually does?
Jailbreaking gives you third party apps and is also considered a hack, you can get games for free, get fun tools, and have themes with different backgrounds and icons. It is worth it. I have a few themes going to Cydia soon and as well as apps on the Appstore. Check out my youtube channel for more info. and SUBSCRIBE!!!

Dont get your hopes up on anything soon this is a comment from a DEV team
IMPORTANT NEWS FROM DEV TEAM!!!! 6 Days, 11 Hours ago Karma: 25
This is from the dev team regarding the iPod touch 2G. These are the guys who brought you the jailbreaks (ipod/iphones) so this is not good news for you 2G owners
QUOTE:
Currently we are not investigating the iPod touch 2G. Other people outside the Dev-Team are looking into this, but we are not at the moment. Please dont hassle us with comments and requests about this, they’ll just be deleted and ignored. If we do look at this device it will be sometime in the New Year and we’ll inform you guys if and when we commence this work.
We would like to reiterate that this is not because -
– We are mean
– We are turning our back on the iPod touch community
– We have been paid off by JFK, Princess Diana or Elvis
This is because -
– It’s not an iPhone
– We have been busy with the 3G unlock.
– We have been busy with the CCC talk.
– Only one of us has a iPod touch 2G (but well see what Santa brings)
– Our employers dont get as excited as us about hacking expensive pretty devices
– Unfortunately our partners, parents and pets need occasional attention too.
everytime i try to execute the application, i get a “application failed to initialize” error. could someone help me out please?
Chronic dev r working on a jailbreak for the ipod touch 2g
If any1 has a error msg bout itunes needed to b connected, connect it to any usbdevice and leave it or connect to itunes and resync it then power down and it should work
what the heck is gui
and does this work on firmware 2.1.1
SOLUTIONS FOR SOME PROBLEMS
Some people are having trouble locating the IPSW file in Windows Vista; here is the location:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
A number of people also seem to have QuickPwn HANG at the “Exploit Bootloader” screen of the jailbreak. I had this problem at least 5 times but finally solved it. If you are using a laptop with Windows Vista running and have plugged your USB cable into a USB HUB then connected that to the Laptop, the process will hang at the “Exploit Bootloader” screen. Plug the iPod cable directly to the laptop and go through the jailbreak and it should work.
no, you won’t have to put everything back tony
does this work with the ipod touch 2g?
ipod touch 2.1, everything worked smoothly…
i did have 1.1.2 then upgraded to 2.1 then jailbreak successs!
For the people that are completely lost..
1. Download Quickpwn
2. Download the Ipod IPSW file at: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/01/02/iphone-and-ipod-touch-firmware-software-22-direct-download-links/
3.plug in your IPod
4. choose the IPSW file you just downloaded when prompted
5.follow the on screen steps
6. restart your ipod
voila,
hope this helps
Okay.
I have downloaded all three mirrors and it says that I have to have the .Net Framework.
