I'm going to designate this the official "What will you do when 2.0 is Released" thread as to cut down on them once the firmware is released. Please do not make any other topics. I will attempt to merge the existing threads into this one, and if I miss one please let me know.

How many of you are going to upgrade to 2.0 or restore for 2.0? Mainly this is a question for ipod touch owners...but I guess iphone owners could join in also :p

yeah i am. only cause i got the swod and lost all my stuff. so i have nothing to stay on 1.1.4 for

blackjak231
07-01-2008, 06:40 PM
Yes for me. Some of the apps that exist right now often crash and/or are not finished, which is sometimes annoying... So im switching to 2.0 to go "clean."

BUT! as soon as it jailbrokenable.....(made that word myself :p), im jailbreaking it, no doubt!

Anyway, yes, I'm moving on to 2.0.

I don't really know. Every firmware worked fine for me, but if 2.0 has a lot to offer and it's a great firmware then yes I will upgrade.

its a yes... firmaware 2.0 has lot of features compare with the previous firmwares..especially when the jailbreak is available for 2.0... that would be amazing new stuffs and more exciting apps....cool....

What is everyones plan for when firmare 2.0 comes out?

I dont know what Im gunna do....

are you gunna buy and download it right away?

are you gunna wait for a free pirated version?

07-09-2008, 06:55 PM
I have an iphone so I am going to download it, se if you can do the 2.0 itunes activation hack with itunes 7.7, then if you can restore my iphone to 2.0 do the hack and wait for the iphone dev team to guid me to a jailbreak :)

ZombieKiller
07-09-2008, 06:56 PM
Wait a week for a jalbreak or a pirated version... If it doesnt come out by then... I'm upgrading no matter what...

But from the signs of the the dev team, it looks like its going to be jailbreakable right away...

Why would you not upgrade to 2.0?

Ive heard some people will not bother with 2.0? why is this? and try to put it in lame mens terms. Im not familiar with all the ipod touch abbreviations.

then why would you post this

2 reasons...


1. It may be similar but it is not exactly the same.

2. I dont feel like asking 1 fat multifaceted question, because then people will just end up answering part of it and I wont get all the info that I want.

GeneralDuctape
07-09-2008, 07:23 PM
I think I'm going to buy it, and if I don't like it then I'll just have to wait for;
1.A jailbreak for it
2. Until I get tired of it and try to switch back to 1.1.4

i'l stay on 1.1.4 till it becomes jailbroken. if the upgrade is $10 in Australian Dollars, then i will probably upgrade without it being jailbroken, cause i have a $10 itunes card

YouTouch
07-09-2008, 07:43 PM
yeah, I know I'm going to upgrade but I'm not sure if I want to wait for pirated or jailbroken first. I kinda want it right away tho. I'm just not sure.

07-09-2008, 07:54 PM
im going to see if they open a itunes online store in mexico... cause i havent seen the addition of it to the list yet..... if they do and i can use my credit card on it... ill be upgrading to 2.0 with the full combo ..... and then ofcourse ill be checking for the jailbreaking of it ... so i can have both lol.... or decide which one is better... but yeah.. so far that is my plan... (crossing fingers for apple to make the right move).....

iPlunder
07-09-2008, 07:57 PM
I am not sure.. I do not want to have to restore my ipod AGAIN for the 4th time. I will have to see what some people think before i do it.

Shouldn't be to long beforet here is a jailbroken version on installer... right? Right?

AngelSynth
07-09-2008, 07:57 PM
Im staying on 1.1.4 for a little while.

smart move...

I think a lot of people are going to be pissed once they upgrade to 1.2.0

At first they'll be like, "ZOMG Sooper munkey ball!!!1!!!"

but then they'll realize that they can't theme, they can't run emulators, they can't do crap

then suddenly we'll have so many sad children whining about how to downgrade from 2.0 to 1.1.4

mark my words

Spiderwebb
07-09-2008, 08:05 PM
I'm pretty sure that if you just wait, we will soon be able to jailbreak the 2.0, that is if you want to do so. I personally want the App Store, but I don't really want to risk losing the 1.1.4. applications that I jailbroken or paying $9.95 for it. I will just do fine with 1.1.4 until 2.0 is broken, just like the others.

After months of jailbreaking and restoring and jailbreaking I finally just said "the hell with it" and went with ol' normal 1.1.4. And you know what? I like it very much. I do hope somewhere down the line Apple lets us customize the springboard. I can't wait.

I have an iPodTouch 1.1.4 JB and iPhone 1.1.4 JB/unlock and using local SIM card. Probably I'm gonna wait till JB 1.2.0 is released by DevTeam since I don't wanna shift to another mobile phone.

I am staying with jailbreaking. I hate proprietary locked down devices and look forward to seeing what the jailbreaking team comes up with, NOTHING on 2.0 and the app store right now seems appealing to me, all I want is to be able to view high resolution photos so I can read my comics without the hassle of Jcomic and the ftp them blah blah blah, and I presently see NO application on the store that can do it.

i have three aspects of 2.0 that i am confused about:
will there be a background that can be changed behind the springboard?
and is it likely that an application similar to hidepod could be released?
and are things such as customize and catagories permitted?
many thanks in advance

soo can someone tell me if this summation is correct. Just please tell me if the following statement is correct or incorrect as I haven't been around here much as of late...

The 2.0 firmware is available through certain channels now with an App Store that works and it is Jailbreakable through pwnage however many of the JB apps we are used to using and have grown to love won'y work on 2.0 yet.

Is that valid?

sprint_user
07-10-2008, 08:52 AM
I will probably update if all the apps could be backed up via itunes. that would be sick because then i could jailbreak 2.0 and only loose some of my apps. So, i will not jailbreak tommorrow but i will within the next month or so...untilll i get more info on the 2.0 jailbreak.

Also: i want my iSlsk so not untill its jailbroken wil i update

Nah...Why go to 2.0? I know it is good and all and has more apps but i would rather wait for something better. I am content with my currently jailbroken ipod and i will stay that way. All of the things on 2.0 will probably become available for free on a 2.0 jailbreak anyways....

Yeah, but that's a drop in the bucket considering it only takes 10 people to purchase the download to break even. Anything after that is straight profit.

[ ] and the program is window version
[ ] find that installer reg actually install stuff
[ ] finds out that app store paid app can be modified to be shared and unlimited
[ ] then those apps will be in the section of installer called "AppS installer"
[ ] and i find out that it is completely stable


this is my list. all or it need to happen before i update or upgrade my ipod

ill make a vid tutorial soon on youtube, maybe tomorrow, but the title will be "free ipod touch 2.0 update"

all i did was try to update with an old beta of 2.0, when it was done, the pink recovery screen came up and on itunes it said that it was out of date, so i put the ipod into recovery mode and hit restore, and a screen came up saying, restore and update, so i hit it, and it downloaded the 2.0 software and it installed it for me....!!!yay and they didn't charge me at all

yeah, i will most likely update to 2.0
because pwnage is out and can jailbreak it.
if it wasnt out, i would wait until something/someone could jailbreak it.
just because of the prices in the appstore.

No I'm not upgrading yet.
I like all my games and apps on 1.1.4 and its not because they are free because if it was a case of donation for them then I would gladly do so.
I will however upgrade when the jailbreak comes out but not until.
Go without installer, summerboard and customise, no way!

I haven't upgraded yet either. I'm still waiting for the jailbreak. I kind of want to see how this all stacks up before loosing all the stuff I have. The one thing I wanted an rss reader is out but looks terrible compared to smartrss and feeds. Why pay 5$ for a ugly app?

So for us Touch owners 2.0 will cost us $10. How much is the Mail, Maps, Stocks and Weather app pack now, $5?

Like I said earlier, I am upgrading at this very moment. I do think that I will get apps that I like as soon as they come out, because it appears that when most of them come out, they are free, and then they put a price on them, and slowly raise the price. I will certainly jailbreak it when the jailbreak is available though, there's just something nice about being able to jailbreak it and getting an app for free that costs 5 dollars on the App store, like the pocket keyboard and such.

I'm just gonna wait a little bit...there are a lot of apps that I use on a daily basis that aren't out yet for 2.0 (like VnSea or Pocket Touch). But I really need the Cisco VPN thing to use our campus internet....so I'm kinda stuck in the middle. Hope jailbreak comes out soon!

07-12-2008, 12:07 PM
Well I'm an idiot. Am a bit oblivious to all the jail breaking and versions of firmware etc (bought my iTouch already jail broken from Ebay!), and just happily clicked upgrade through itunes so I could download all these lovely new apps. I know it is so obvious (well it is now) that this upgrade to 2.0 will overwrite all the jailbroken loveliness my ipod enjoyed but I was well upset when the realisation hit me.... No i-coptor, no icomic book reader (which I was buzzing about getting working - finally- about 1 week ago), no Solitaire, no summerboard themes and most importantly for me, no text reader (can't remember the App's actual name). I was using this to keep up to date with all my finances (the many outgoings and so few incomings etc) and also as a virtual brain, typing in birthdays and the such. Is there any way I can retrieve these txt files? Sadly I think I already know the answer.... And I can't even connect through winSCP anymore! Lesson learned, think about what you are doing and read what's on the screen before hitting that button. Anyway, version 2.0 does seem cool. Just downloading BrainChallenge....

YAH ... I seemed to be stuck last nite -- but my account was billed for the 2.0 last nite.
I guess that I all had to do was SYNC the Touch.

1: Free Apps:
***********
This must be a bit of a dissapointment for Apple.

Gee... some of the stuff is not too strong. I used to have an Atari 800 & 64K of memory. So for our Touch I expected to see some real brain-twisters, sweat and tears! But that -- to my eyes -- is not the case for many APPS. Many are Lighweights. Sort of PDA ideas.
For example, nobody had to tell me I that my Touch was bright in a dark room!

In contrast Eppocrates is quite appropriate for the medical profession and seems to be very professional and working with reasonably large external databases.


2: Paid Apps
**********
The original Pac Man would run on about 16K-32K of Atari 800 memory. Some of the paid apps look like they underutilize the machine. Maybe the problem is that Apple wants many small apps and few big ones re storage implications.


QUESTIONS:

1: Which 10$ apps offer outstanding usefulness ?.

2: WHich $0 - $ 2 apps are VERY USEFUL ?

3: Which make GOOD USE of the iPod Touch?

See you ate the APP STORE !

Happyhow

Anybody have problems downloading 2.0 from iTunes? I tried 3 times on my wife's iPhone and 2 on my iTouch, every time I get to about 75 seconds left or 199mb it stops and says that I have a network issue and the download aborts. Talk about frustrating!!!

Thanks,
Jeff

07-12-2008, 03:35 PM
Am monitoring the situation. Some of the Apps I use are in both places, so no reason to upgrade. Would like to keep the functionality that other apps allow i.e. more access to the iPodTouch's utility. text edit, doc manipulation, etc. Push mail, etc. looks cool but not sure that I would upgrade just for that. Hoping a Jailbreak for 2.0 comes out soon. Kudos to all the people involved, you have done a magnificent job!

i HAD a jailbroken ipod... then it bricked twice so i switched to the legit 1.1.4 :/
i updated to 2.0 and my ipod was bricked yet again, no chance of restore this time. (error message 1604) so i went to best buy and the geek squad couldn't figure out what was wrong XD
and they sent it in and i will be getting a new 16 gig in about a week. i called apple about the 1604 problem... and they had no idea (what? our prized new $10 upgrade bricked your ipod?!) it was amusing. i suggest you be more careful if you are in my same situation.

rj_69
07-12-2008, 08:07 PM
i will... if it is free to all ipod touch users!! im hoping that apple should realize that, they should be fair between ipod touch and iphone.. because apple applications always free on iphone while we ipod touch users will be spending a dollars to enjoy those applications..

The apps on 1.1.4 are too useful to warrant an upgrade.

Stuff like mxtube, photoboard etc i love them too much. Firmware 2.0 is for gamers it seems. I don't care much for the games

Yea what an ass for following the thread that a mod suggested. Anyways, I usually hate to see people bumping old threads too, but it's because they are usually dead for a reason. On the contrary, this is the perfect time for this thread as shown by the 10+ pages that followed his bump.

Back OT, I'm sticking with 1.1.4 JB for the time being.

i went with 2.0 and the only JB things i miss are themes, gpsPhone, and books. otherwise 2.0 pwns, especially the aol radio and pandora apps. and remote is fun for randomly cranking up and changing the music when someone else is using the computer :D

LykeZomg
07-13-2008, 09:57 PM
i upgraded to the 2.0. I really love all the new apps like aqua forest and the aol radio. the only thing that i miss from jailbreaking is the nes and snes apps. D:

i hope they find a way to have those on 2.0. my ipod would be complete then! :D

overall i love it.

gremlin
07-14-2008, 02:18 AM
Yes, I'll admit it, I upgraded to 2, well for a day at least.
I missed my themes, apps and games back on 1.1.4 but most of all, I missed volume boost.
Although the volume issues are addressed somewhat in 2 to a degree, music still sounded rather flat.
I followed the instructions to downgrade back to 1.1.4 and went without a hitch apart from receiving error 20 for the first few attempts then put it into DMU mode, windows vista installed an apple device driver and things went smoothly after that.
Seems like there is a variation on the device drivers between the different firmwares!
I did buy a few apps from appstore and havent lost them as they sit in my itunes library and as soon as 2 is jailbroken I suppose I will upgrade again, but for now Installler Rocks, Neverball rocks, Summerboard rocks and my music sounds the DB's.

ebelp
07-14-2008, 09:30 AM
I will consider upgrading when more of the apps I use are available from the App Store. One key app is Touchpad Pro, which I paid for. Plus Mahjong, Solitaire, and the emulators are key for me...

chesb
07-14-2008, 07:02 PM
i think i'm going to hold off mainly because of themes and like the above poster, i paid for touchpad pro and i love it too much. I'll wait for these two things to be available for 2.0 before upgrading

I'm going to designate this the official "What will you do when 2.0 is Released" thread as to cut down on them once the firmware is released. Please do not make any other topics. I will attempt to merge the existing threads into this one, and if I miss one please let me know.
I had updated but then i got stuck in a BIG BIGBIGBIGBIGBIGHUGE!!! MESS! but thankfully just now i downgrading itunes, got my music back, my videos, and everything, and jailbroke it to. Except i lost my january software update. I guess i can just email apple or just install it for free via installer.
I am glad to be back:D

i was on a jailbroken 1.1.3 last night, saw the 2.0 jailbreak was released, "purchased" the 2.0 ipsw and pwnd without a restore. works great, no problems thus far. still waiting for cydia to allow us to add sources or for the next 2.0 compatible version of installer to come out.

awperk
07-20-2008, 04:56 PM
i updated to 2.0 this afternoon so now i'm running a jailbroken 2.0 with cydia. quite pleasingly, it kept my custom carrier name that i set using Make It Mine :D

cripesonfriday
07-20-2008, 05:05 PM
I said I wasn't mainly cos of the books app and the touchpad pro and the lack of customisation.
I upgraded Friday night in a moment of weakness
The ebook reader is a fine substitute which although can't add the books I already have they have said this bwill be sorted by the end of the month.
Mocha works as well as Touchpad (esp if you use remote too) and when the pro version of Mocha comes out it will be perfect.
I do miss customising the thing though, hate the fact it looks so damn ordinary.

On a side note someone is selling classic ebooks like tarzan and little women, these books are free on the ebook.com site and can be downloaded easily to the ipod without spending a penny once you sign up.

I haven't updated from 1.1.4 yet.
I might when more apps become available for 2.0 on Cydia.
I use WAY more apps on 1.1.4 than I would on 2.0 so far.
Besides I'd lose the ability to customize my springboard.

dieselboy27
07-30-2008, 11:42 AM
I haven't upgraded to 2.0 and probably will not until I see more apps being converted to 2.0 framework. I really don't like the idea of having IM clients close when you press the home button, and the bug issues they are having right now. My 1.1.4 is awesome and does so much for free that it seems silly to pay for things that are buggy. I know I will update eventually, but not until there are more useful apps.

07-30-2008, 01:20 PM
I Jailbroke the little SOB, and while I'm pretty upset that I lost all my cool free stuff (1.1.4 Rocks), I do have to say I love the fact that 2.0 allows me to connect to my works corporate wireless network. 1.1.4 didn't allow this to happen, so I couldn't do any updates, etc while at work (I know i should have been working anyways). I'm also like the whole mail push thing. 1.1.4 wasn't compatible with my Outlook Exchange, but 2.0 is. It's nice to be able to check email outside the office without having to log onto exchange via IE.

Just my 2 cent for what it's worth. If you don't need those two things above, then by all means stay with 1.1.4...TRUST ME!

Clackpot
08-14-2008, 12:13 PM
I'm still kicking 1.1.4. I wanna upgrade, but it's hard to part with some of these older Apps. Sketches expired for me and I can't run the beta version on 1.1.4 anymore. That sucks!! but overall, I'll just wait till the new Installer comes along. Not to sound cheap... but free apps do help when I have bills and other huge payments in REAL LIFE.. I have to make.. why clutter my credit card bill up with apps I might buy and not like.

I think donating is the way to go. If you like it.. you'll pass the buck.

qbal1
08-23-2008, 11:26 PM
I would recomend the upgrade. this is mainly because I've had my jailbroken iPod for like 7 months, I've crashed it and restored it 4 times and to me, my iPod always working is worth spending $11.97 in the app store vs getting my programs from installer. but if your iPod never crashes and you like it the way it is on 1.1.x then I would sugjest you keep it that way.

g.b.a.
08-25-2008, 07:00 PM
i'm still with the 1.1.5 and probably don't have the plan yet to upgrade to 2.0 ( or up )...
i don't want to give up all the applications i have right now especially the Wikipedia and Wedict applications.
they are indeed very useful for me right now...

but as soon as all my existing apps can be retrieve from 2.0 (or up), then i might update...
