Hi Folks,


ATTENTION: READ EVERYTHING BEFORE DOING ANYTHING. This script will activate your phone and make youtube work.
TESTED with Windows XP and iPhone 1.0.2 Firmware. Other configurations might also work, post your experience here.
MAC USERS: You might wanna check this thread first: http://hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5582

I've noticed that some folks in here are having a lot of trouble getting youtube to work, even though deleonju provided youtube certificate files that work great with Darkmen's Patching Activation method with no hassles. So, I decided to step in and give some help. What I did was to wrap up youtube's files and patching activation in a single "point and click" script, so you don't have to think too much to make things work. I haven't included the jailbreak part because the files are just too big and that would probably constitute copyright infringement.

ATTENTION: THIS METHOD ALONE WILL NOT UNLOCK YOUR iPhone!!!

HOW TO ACTIVATE YOUR iPhone FOR ANY SIM CARD AND ENABLE YOUTUBE

INSTRUCTIONS:

1) Jailbreak your iPhone (Easy instructions in: http://ibrickr.com/ - Detailed intructions in: www.hacktheiphone.com)
2) Download and unpack this file:

http://rapidshare.com/files/55289251/PACAY__by_brasuco_.rar.html (http://195.122.131.17/files/55289251/PACAY__by_brasuco_.rar.html)
(UPDATED in September 12th 2007: no need to restore your phone anymore!)


3) Run the "activation.bat" batch script that is included.


UNISTALL:
Doubleclick "reverse.bat" (This will reverse what PACAY has done. It will restore your original files and leave in iPhone totally deactivated)


REMEMBER to kill iTunes before doing anything. Any doubts, check README.txt


You'll be given instructions along the way, but mostly you'll just have to watch. At the end, you'll hopefully have an activated iPhone with YoutTube working. :) The good part is that this method is SIM card independent. So you can put any ATT SIM in the phone (or any SIM for the folks that have done GeoHot's unlock!). This means that you can change SIM cards without having to re-activate the phone. Another advantage is that you won't have to install an SSH sever (dropbear), which some folks here are not willing to do. This is the first version of the script, pre-alpha if you wish. I'd appreciate any comments so the script gets really fool proof. I have tested this script with my own phone several times, so It should work fine. If you have any problems, post here. I did it under Windows XP simply because I don't have a MAC. Also, I think MAC people already have pretty nice tools. Anyway, if you wanna replicate this idea your own way, just do a patching activation, then copy deleonju's youtube files to /private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/ inside your phone.


Enjoy YouTube! :)

I'd suggest you check out some videos of Fortaleza, Brazil. Beautiful city! :)

You can't sync with outlook. You have to import your outlook into Mozilla Mail or Thunderbird and then export it as different file (I forgot what it's called but you can Google it) that is compatible with OSX.

I am using the supersim method. I've got a bunch of numbers, photos, etc on the phone. I will jailbreak on girlfriends's mac, run youtube batch, then return to jail on gf's mac (via iactivator). This is OK? I dont have to restore the iphone software at all.

before running this i have to do the jailbreak which is also known as the 10 step method, right? i can do that with ibrikr? if so how? is it just straight forward when i run the software?

and btw i used one click activation by http://www.pqdvd.net/iphone-unlock-toolkit.html

how will i reverse that to go back to normal so i can jailbreak (10 step)?

can i reverse that without updating the iphone? just so they haven't already blocked software unlocks (and don't want to end up waiting for a downgrader!)

great little tool,
one question though, in this guide http://www.hacktheiphone.com/iphone_using_cingular_for_windows.html the iphones imei and iccid is used to create the .pem file(s).

when activating using your tool are my iphones imei and iccid used or some other ones.

just asking because a few guys on this board are complaining about a problem with incorrect iccids and i just want to make sure im not getting into any problems when aktivating my phone

I don't change any fies related to ICCID nor IMEI.
I believe those files are located insinde Lockdown/Activation Records/

I just add the certificate files. These files you're mentioning are checked by the lockdownd process. What we are doing is patching the lockdownd binary so it doesn't need to check those files. Actually it checks, but it always returns successful no matter what files you have. That's why your iPhone won't complain if you change SIM cards.

When you change SIM cards the activation files related to the SIM that are stored inside the Lockdown folder are checked by the lockdownd process. Since the binary is patched to always return successful verification, it won't complain about the mismatch.

So, again, the files you're mentioning don't get changed.

Sorry for the technical imprecisions if I had any. :)

You can also use ibrickr to jailbreak your iPhone I believe.

I think you won't have any problems if you don't restore you phone.
I ask to restore the phone because there are still some details that I don't know about the relationship amog those files in the lockdown folder, so I ask to restore just to make sure.

Why don't you give it a try so you can know for sure? :)

It seems iphoneinterface.exe didn't work quite well in your case.

Let's try to debug the problem.

1) Have you killed iTunes and all related processes?
2) Have you jailbroken your phone?
3) Have you used the vista version of the script?
4) Have you edited (and saved) any of the .iphone files?
5) Can try to use iPhone interface alone to see if it's working fine?

The script doesn't actually reproduce iTunes activation process.

Instead, it patches the program that is in charge of verifying your activation status (and if the current SIM card matches the one used during activation).

After patching the program, your iPhone won't bother if you have activated or not, nor if you have changed SIM cards or not.

The only thing I'm not sure is whether or not youtube will work properly, because I'm still not sure of the relationship of some files inside your phone, after you activate.


I'll see if I can work on that.

Have you killed iTunes? Have you jailbroken your phone for sure?

1. Ensure your Itunes and Itunes helper are ended.
2. download the file and then extract them into a folder in your desktop.
3. from your folder in your desktop run the .bat Brasuco sent us!

BTW- Finally somebody was able to get windows in the Apple wolrd.

Thanks for the reply-- I unrared the file to the desktop. closed itunes(helper), made sure the iphone was jailbroken, etc.

Hi Richard,

It seems you're both on vista.
The problem seems to be with iphoneinterface.exe.

When we get it to work the script will work.

Can you run iphoneinterface.exe alone and paste the output here?

Niftyiphone
08-29-2007, 05:14 AM
Yes i do have itunes installed.

Neither iTunes or the PC recognise that the phone is there

But hey... You can always do what the script does by hand.

Would you like to? I can give some instructions.

Niftyiphone
08-29-2007, 05:25 AM
I have tried to do the script in a number of ways but for some reason it just wont work.

I suspect its because i activated the phone using iActivator. I have place the 3 files onto the phone and done everything according to instructions (i think) but i just cant get youtube to work :(

So any help or instruction you can give i will give it a go again :)

If you don't mind having to reactivate your phone in case we are not successful, here's what I'd do:

1) run iphoneinterface (from your MAC is fine)
2) In iphoneinterface's prompt issue this command: deactivate
3) issue this last command: exit
4) copy the files again, remember to rename "patch" as the script does.
5) reboot your phone

Wanna give it a try? :)

Check the activate.bat file, there the script renames a file that is inside the folder. This file that gets renamed is orginally 'patch'. Since you're doing it by hand, you should rename it manually.

Check the activate.bat and you'll understand.

YouTube is slow .... any idea?

after activation by "point_and _click ...." file, YT takes a long time to load.
Question : Is it using the Wifi? or the Edge for access?

.... hmmm... if it is the Wifi it should not be so slow.

Works ! Thanks !
Here's my experience.

*PACAY = Point And Click Activation w/ Youtube

All this was done switching back and forth on my MacBook Pro and Parallels running Windows XP.

Running PACAY on activated iPhone = didn't work. The script seemed to work and went all the way but YouTube still didn't worked.

Restored trough iTunes-Mac, jailbreaked trough iActivator ( Mac ) then executed PACAY ( win ) = didn't work. ( got a pairing issue ).

Restored trough iTunes-Mac, jailbreaked with iBrickr = didn't work. iBrickr wouldn't find the iPhone. ( Even though iBrickr found it on earlier tests )

Restored trough iTunes-Win, jailbreaked with iBrickr, ran PACAY. Worked!

Plugged back in iTunes-Mac, iTunes found my iPhone backup and restored all my settings.

Thanks to all who made this possible :)
Now if I could only make a call with this thing....

Richard,

i think the culprit is iActivator. I did a restore of my phone and then activated it using iPhone Tool downloaded from the mainpage wiki. Activating it this way fixed my problems rather than using iActivator. I dont know why its messing it up but try that if you can. I now have youtube working..... watching kids get knocked off bikes right now :)

Hi Brasuco,

Do you know if this Point and Click method will work with an iPhone that is working with a Turbo Sim?

Great work so far, thanks.

That was a waste of time! (thanks anyway!)

I can't use my supersim and youtube doesnt work anyway...

I guess I'l give up

Sorry Richard but this worked for me perfectly... and it should cause a problem for the supersim.

Just to recpa what i did.

Restore iphone
Activate with iPhoneTool
(all on mac so far)

Go to Windows machine.
Jailbrake with IBrikr
Run the Windows Youtube Script

you Tube works just fine

Hi Rich,

Sorry it didn't work for you...

I guess some activation methods create some files that make the system incompatible with the files I'm uploading (and youtube won't work this way).

I wasn't sure of that at first, but I suspected. That's why I ask to restore your phone in the instructions.

Whenever you have the time, just try to restore your phone before doing the rest. :)

Good Luck.

Brasuco,

How do we reverse or uninstall your one_click_your_tube batch file? Because after i install your files my iPhone will not let my HomeDock to read it. I confirmed it, i restored my iPhone 1.0.2 and then Jailbreak, and activate, it was ok until i install your You Tube activation files.

YouTube is cool but still too slow over Wifi, not sure why?

Well, I don't think the files are the problem by themselves, but it might be some combination of factors where they may play a role.

Nevertheless, if you want to reverse it, it's simple too. :)

There's a folder called "backup" inside the script's folder. Your original files are stored inside it (I do create a backup copy :P). You will have to put them back in the phone.

Do this in the prompt:

# cd "point and click activation (with youtube) vista"
# copy backup\* .\
# iphoneinterface.exe < activate.iphone
# iphoneinterface.exe < youtube.iphone



The first command is so you can enter the script's folder, if you have renamed it, the name in the command will the one you've used.


If you wanna work with me to debug this problem so the script is improved I'd appreciate it. :)

I'll create a second script to reverse the procedure automatically. But It's fairly easy, as you can see.

This is my experience as Mac user with SuperSim (italy):

(the phone was already working apart from youtube)

1. I Restored the iPhone via iTunes with fw 1.0.2

2. Closed iTunes and opened iActivator

3. Performed Jailbreak

4. Attach the iPhone to a winXP with iTunes installed (iMac with BootCamp, as Parallels weren't able to connect to the usb)

5. Unzipped the **** zip (Pay attention here Mac users! After downloading the zip DO NOT run the BAT file from within the ZIP. Right-click on the ZIP file and choose UNZIP. Then open the new folder [NOT ZIPPED] and proceed. Sorry for pointing this out, but it may be tricky even for windows users)

6. Double-clicked the BAT file

7. iPhone fully activated (with TIM in Italy) and YouTube working.

8. connected back the iPhone to my Mac and restored the prefs via iTunes (you need to sync BEFORE you perform the restore mentioned in point 1)

WONDERFUL. I thought I'd have to activate the phone with iActivator to use the SuperSim after the process, but that was NOT necessary. iPhone activated with 1 click!

Great!

Now:
iPhone 1.0.2
Calls !N/OUT ok
SMS IN/OUT OK
EDGE OK
WiFi OK
youTube OK!!!!!!

I've noticed that too. That's because windows have "seamless" integration with ZIPPED files so it looks to the user like it is a normal folder. The problem is that any dependencies among files that rely on them being in the same path might not work.

That's why I've changed to RAR (instead of zip). THis way, the user will have to really unpack it before using it. Hope that solves the issue. :)

Thanks for the feedback.

I had a working YouTube phone, then I did the hardware unlock 3 nights ago and have been so busy making calls that I just now notice YouTube no longer works at all (WiFi, Edge, Sim in, Sim out).

I tried the latest build (3 posts above this and it did not restore Youtube functionality. I was using it fine for the past 7 weeks so I KNOW it worked. Now, I can't search or watch... it just says "Cannot connect to youtube"

Anyone else have youtube fail after geohot unlock and not get this util to work?

I also had the Parallels USB problem. Turned out that the actual public version of Parallels dosen't support the iPhone. But Parallels Beta2 does : "Windows iTunes can connect to your iPhone"

It fixed my problem and made it easier and quicker than rebooting in Bootcamp ;)

Can you please help me?

After trying your method several times (i sue a supersim) I gave up-- restored the iphone on mac and now the activation process will not work. it gets to the alert that says no signal. I have used iactivator, hacktheiphone method etc, it all has the same problem. could the files i changed with your software be the problem?

This is killing me, I can't even use the phone anymore. ARGH!

Hi Richard,

I understand your frustration. Let's try to get this thing working.
First of all, do you still have your ATT sim card?

If yes, would you mind restoring your phone with it up to the point iTunes asks you to activate?

Go all the way long.

After doing this don't change sim cards just yet.

Now, jailbreak your phone.

After jailbreak run iPhone interface and check if it is working fine.

If iphoneinterface is fine, go on.

Download the latest version of my script and run it again.

If everything works fine, just change sim cards now.




All the files that are replaced in your phone (4 in total) are backed up in the backup folder. If you ever need to restore them just run the reverse.bat script.

Also, these files are all restored to their original versions when you do a full restore on your phone. So I don't think your problem has any thing to do with the files since you did a full restore.



Let's try this first. If it doesn't work let's try hacktheiphone's approach then.

A bit of advice. Do not use iActivator to activate your phone. Its not putting a file in the right spot.

Go to the DevTeam Wiki main page. Go to the bypass activations Tab.
Go to the activate your phone with .plist part and get the Anderson technologies iPhoneTool from the link there.

There are then some very easy intruction to follow. I cannot emphasise this enough.

It works for me and i have help 2 other people activate their phone this way then go on to activate youtube properly.

I have installe ifuntastic3 since and i still have youtube access.

With iActivator i too was having huge problems getting youtube to work. a full restore and activation according to the dev wiki helped me. Its a bit fiddlier to do than the nice GUI of iActivator as you activate your phone throu terminal but its works properly at least.

Thanks, I started my macbook into windows xp, followed the instructions on hacktheiphone.com, and successfully unlocked my phone and also got youtube to work.

Then I tried to disable EDGE network by changing /private/var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist. However, I tried to write the changed file back, but it does not seem to be updated although iphoneinterface.exe did not complain anything.

Then I restarted macbook into OSX, and found that I could not access the phone using iphuc or iFuntastic 3.

Does that mean I have to stick to the same computer&OS to access the phone?
If I change to another computer/OS, I have to jailbreak again? Would the setup be erased?

Is it necessary to do a restore first? If you are activated using an ATT Sim via iAsign, can you just run the script and retain your current activation, etc?

Is it necessary to do a restore first? If you are activated using an ATT Sim via iAsign, can you just run the script and retain your current activation, etc?

You could give it a try without restoring your phone, but there's a chance it might not work.
the thing is that some files that are created during iAssign's activation have to be filled with part of the data that is included in the youtube's files that are copied to your phone by the script. The script does patch the lockdownd binary so the lack or mismatch of such activation files (iAssign) becomes a non issue. That's how the script activates your phone, instead of creating those files like iAssign, it makes the phone file independent. These files are specific to your SIM, so I could not have them included in the pack anyway.
I'm not sure if youtube will complain about your activation files not having the same certificate information as the youtube files that the script puts in your phone. If you'd like to give it a try and post here your experience that would be great. The good part is that the script will make your phone SIM independent as well, so you can still use your current SIM.
If you need to reverse the procedure just run the reverse.bat script that is included.

Good luck.

Hi,


It seems iphoneinterface isn't working properly.

See if you are able to use it alone. Just type "iphoneinterface" and issue the "ls" command.

If you can't do it, this means that the problem is with iphoneinterface. Since the script uses it to send the files to the phone and to backup your original files, nothing will work.

Some people here have reported they are having compatibility problems when they switch between Mac and windows. I don't see what the reason might be, but you may try to jailbreak in windows to see if that works.


I think if we can get iphoneinterface to work, the script will also work.

Let me know the result of your test.

Cheers.

Hi Eluzion,

Sorry for the delayed response. I missed your post before. :)

Well, the only thing this script does is to backup and replace four important files in your iphone, namely:

/usr/libexec/lockdownd
/private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/device_public_key.pem
/private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/device_private_key.pem
/private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/data_ark.plist

The first file (lockdownd) is the binary responsible for monitoring your activation status. We replace it with a patched version so it doesn't complain about the absence of activation files inside the lockdown folder and believes your phone is always activated no matter what. This method is called patching activation (thanks to Darkmen).

The last three files are responsible for youtube's authentication process (thanks to deleonju).
If you have a clean iPhone (with no activation records/files) these files alone will enable a fully functional youtube. But if you have used some other activation method that probably has put activation files inside you phone, these three files alone will not do the trick. In this case, you'll need to edit the activation files that were put in your phone (they are SIM specific) to reflect the same certificate information as in the three files the script uploads. That's why I use patching activation, so we don't have to edit anything.


The script is reversible since it is a simple replacement of files. To reverse everything, just click on the reverse.bat script that is included in the pack.

If you are willing to do everything by hand, I don't think it is too difficult. Just remember to back up everything first.

Good luck!

Brasuco

Tried running the script without restoring first - phone was activated on a mac - iAsign, etc, using an active ATT sim. The script seemed to run and complete ok, but YouTube didn't work.

So, I did a restore to up to 1.0.2 (from.1) in Windows, then used iBrikr to jailbreak, then used the script again. Although it was a start from scratch and I forgot to backup my camera roll photos, EVERYTHING works now - sync media from iTunes on my mac, and I sync calendar and contacts from iTunes/Outlook on the pc.

Reinstalled installer on the mac and everything is great.

THANKS for thinking of the adventerous novices out here by writing the script and keep up the great work!

Very nice script brasuco. I was able to run it and YouTube didn't work because my phone had already been activated. So the easy way to get YouTube working if you had already activated the phone through iAsign or something else would be to:

1. Reverse the point and click activation (it will only restore the keys)
2. Put the backup lockdownd file (the one in the backup folder) on the iphone in /usr/libexec/ (in Windows you can use iBrickr or iphoneinterface.exe or whichever method you prefer). This will set the phone back to it's unactivated state.
3. Reboot phone
4. Phone will boot up and say it's unactivated
5. Run point and click script
6. Phone is activated and YouTube works.

Thanks again!

Are you sure the restore.bat script isn't copying hte lockdownd binary back to the phone?

I've just checked it and there are no typos or anything like it.

Hi Brasuco,

Do you know if this Point and Click method will work with an iPhone that is working with a Turbo Sim?

Great work so far, thanks.

GEODE,


Hi,

I'm sorry for the delayed response, I've missed your post before.

Well, the script should work fine with your turbo sim. Just make sure you restore you pone before that. THere are some files that are created during the other activation methods that are incompatible with the one the script uses (you could get no youtube). It's a matter of somefiles in the lockdown folder, but just to make sure, I ask people to restore their phones first.

Another user (capitaincool) here had a problem with the SIM card password. He forgot to configure it in the restored phone, so remember to do that.


Any problems post here.

Cheers.

Hey,

You and some other guys mentioned that youtube can be confugured using the activation file or keys generated in iFuntastics or iNdependence. Like replacing some keys in some files. Could you elaborate on the procedure?

The reason is I use your script to activate the phone and youtube, but I cannot use any tool on MAC to communicate to the phone in MAC.

Any other suggestions. Again, thanks a lot for your tips. They work great.

Hi guys, hoping someone can help me.

I had to do a restore of my phone and lost youtube... i followed the exact same steps as i did last time but i cannot get youtube to work again which is very odd.

Trying to activate my phone i get this:

its the mismatched ICCID that i thought was odd.

I run the script in windows that worked perfectly last time and i just cant connect to youtube anymore...

thoughts?



OK ignore the above.... i deleted the script, unpacked it ran it again and its all working now :)

HI, I just followed the steps mentioned here. After unlocking the phone,

1) I restored the firmware
2) Activated the phone by using factoryactivation patch
3) Ran the program for youtube.

All went well, but then when i type iphoneinterface, it says "Could not enable SSL"

I checked on this error twice and it happens only after i run the youtube patch. Any idea what could be the problem.

Youtube is working fine, but I am worried about the SSL part.

Hope this helps guys.

I have 1.0.2 and iTunes 7.3.2.6 and activated my phone for Turbosim. Every thing worked ok except Youtube.

I simply used ssh to backup the original 3 files and simply copied the new ones into my iPhone.

Rebooted it and now youtube works perfectly as well as iTunes sync.

All works with no problems.

Hi,

There are some people having similar problems with the script. Most of the trouble is happening to MAC users. I haven't had the opportunity to test the script under MAC nor to write a port either. That's why I warn people that this script is suitable for windows users.
Well, I think I'll have access to a MAC mini in a copuple of weeks and I'll see if I can manage to create a similar script for the MAC and solve the issues MAC users are having.

Cheers.

The script will run fine, but there's a chance youtube might not work. You should run the script in an unactivated phone. Restore and jailbreak your phone before running the script just to make sure no previous activations will interfere with it.

Would you mind restoring your phone again?

Try to jailbreak it under windows too.

Before each step (restoring, jailbreaking, running the script), remember to check if your MAC tools are still working with the phone.

this way, we can have a better notion of the problem.


Good luck.

Hello Brasuco,

I have a question regarding your script.

I just cracked open my iPhone tonight and activated it using the PQ-DVD "one click" software using iTunes 7.3.0.54 (i.e., the one that DVD John cracked). Obviously the iPhone is still running firmware 1.0.0. I had wanted to upgrade the iPhone to version 1.0.2 before Activating it but I wasn't sure how to load the 1.0.2 firmware onto the phone without bypassing Activation in some way.

In any event, I was hoping to get your advice on how to best implement your method given my current situation. I had planned on doing as follows:

i/ updating the iPhone with firmware 1.0.2
ii/ performing a restore via iTunes
iii/ upgrading my iTunes to the latest and greatest version (this would likely wipe out whatever the PQ-DVD software did since I believe it hacks iTunes itself)
iv/ jailbreaking (likely using iBrickr 0.8)
v/ running your script to re-activate the iPhone and to enable YouTube

Does this sound reasonable to you?

Thanks for all you've done and apologies if this all sounds really dumb - I am just learning all of this stuff for the first time :)

Cheers,
Stunna

Hi Stunna,

I think the plan you have is just fine. The only thing I have to add is that's probably better to upgrade iTunes before restoring the phone. Also, the firmware update will automatically happen during restoration process since your phone is still 1.0.0, which means steps 1 and 2 are basically the same :).


Everything should work just fine, but even If you run into any sort of problem, just post here and we'll try to figure it out.

Good luck. :)

Hi Brasuco,

I managed to update iTunes to the latest version and then I downloaded the 1.0.2 firmware and applied it to the iPhone (the iPhone itself is working just like was with 1.0.0); however, now all I can see in iTunes is that initial AT&T page which is part of the "normal" activation process, which means I can't do things like restore or update, etc. I guess this means that I am not "activated" according to iTunes...is this what we would expect?

If so, then I think my next step is to perform a jailbreak and then to run your script.

BTW, which set of jailbreak instructions on hacktheiphone.net did you follow? I have managed to complete the infamous "10 steps" but they don't seem to involve actually launching jailbreak.exe.

Cheers and thanks for your help!

Hi,

This ATT screen is exactly what you should expect. Just go on with jailbreak.

The jailbreak I used while testing the script is the one referenced in the 11th step of this page:

http://www.hacktheiphone.com/iphone_using_cingular_for_windows.html

Many people were able to accomplish the same with ibrickr. So I guess It's up to you to decide between the two.

Good luck.

So I've run Jailbreak and that seems to have gone well; however, when I run your script it seems to be saying that I am missing a bunch of files (device_public_key.pem, device_private_key.pem, data_ark.plist, lockdownd, etc.).

Note that I in order to run the jailbreak I only ran step #11 on the hacktheiphone page that you pointed out. The one which essentially involves going to \phonedmg and running "jailbreak". I did not carry out any other steps on that page.

What do you think?

Hi,

From the output below I guess I know what your problem might be.

You've probably downloaded the ZIP version of the script.

Windows recognizes ZIP files like they are regular folders. So, you are sort of "tricked" by the system into believing you are working on a folder that contains all the files being shown on windows explorer. That's no true. As soon as you click the script, windows will decompress this one file and run it leaving all the other needed files still inside the ZIP.

What you need to do is download the latest version of the script, the one in the begining of the thread, really unpack all the files (right button click, then extract here), open the folder, the run the script from there.

Good luck.

EDIT: I now realize you have the latest version of the script. That means you're probably just opening it with WINRAR (or something equivalent) and clicking the .BAT script directly. The same advise I've mentioned before is valid here, just unpack everything before running the script.

Brasuco, thanks for picking up the thread in Crackers guide, your really helping us out here. Much appreciated.

1.My original activation each time was with Jailbreak/iphoneinterface from marks hackthe iphone. com, I went back to this each time as I felt comfortable with the process. I then loaded SSH and binkit from the same website, also got comfortable with this process.

2. This is where I did something strange, as I did not understand what BSD Subsystem is, never got a definition from anyone, I then did iBrickr Installer and BSD Subsystem install, because of it's automation from PXL I don't know what it was doing to the phone, I guess it could well have been running Jailbreak again!! Probably double working, but I'm more of a hardware guy, I fumble through software stuff.

3. I create my own sepac and nor with Hexedit. did ieraser, test points and the unlocker...iAsign with new .pem done OPEN...

I am really happy to Restore, and run your program, it just took so many goes to get the unlock to work that I don't what to have to go throught it again in a hurry. How many people have lost there unlock with Restore? Maybe none, I don't know.

What would be great, and I do need it know that my gf want to borrow the phone is to be able to swap SIMS, so I'm happy to go ahead with the download and proceed, just one question, what are the chances of having to re-unlock with needles again!!! Regards, JsR

Had a 1.02 ipod activated with PQDVD, then jailbroken with iBrickr. After running the activate script youtube app started, but no videos...

So I just restored the iPod to 1.02.
iBricked it straight away and then ran the activate script, which unlocked it and activated youtube.

So thanks!

Hi, as long as you habe thf latest version of the baseband firmware there is no risk. The script is pretty simple. It simply replaces 4 files in your iPhone. Also the script backs up the original files in case you want to reverse the procedure.

Yes this is normal. The script is suposed to remove the need for activating your phone so you can switch sims without the need for reactivation, and also it makes youtube work.

Hi Folks,


I've noticed that some folks in here are having a lot of trouble getting youtube to work, even though deleonju provided youtube certificate files that work great with Darkmen's Patching Activation method with no hassles.

So, I decided to step in and give some help.

What I did was to wrap up youtube's files and patching activation in a single "point and click" script, so you don't have to think too much to make things work.

I haven't included the jailbreak part because the files are just too big and that would probably constitute copyright infringement.


TESTED with Windows XP and iPhone 1.0.2 Firmware. Other configurations might work also, post your experience here.

Here's what you have to do:

0) Start your Windows Machine (Sorry MAC people).
1) Restore you iPhone.
2) Kill iTunes related processes.
3) Jailbreak your iPhone (instructions in: www.hacktheiphone.com)
4) Download and unpack this file:
(UPDATED!!!! Now with reverse script so you can undo the procedure.)

h t t p : / / r a p i d s h a r e.com/files/52087915/PACAY.rar.html
(remove spaces)

5) Run the activation.bat batch script that is included. Any doubts, check README.txt

You'll be given instructions along the way, but mostly you'll just have to watch.

At the end, you'll hopefully have an activated iPhone with YoutTube working. :)

The good part is that this method is SIM card independent. So you can put any ATT SIM in the phone (or any SIM for the folks that have done GeoHot's unlock!). This means that you can change SIM cards without having to re-activate the phone.
Another advantage is that you won't have to install an SSH sever (dropbear), which some folks here are not willing to do.

This is the first version of the script, pre-alpha if you wish. I'd appreciate any comments so the script gets really fool proof.
I have tested this script with my own phone several times, so It should work fine. If you have any problems, post here.

I did it under Windows XP simply because I don't have a MAC. :P
Also, I think MAC people already have pretty nice tools.
Anyway, if you wanna replicate this idea your own way, just do a patching activation, then copy deleonju's youtube files to /private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/ inside your phone.


Enjoy YouTube! :)

I'd suggest you check out some videos of Fortaleza, Brazil. Beautiful city! :)


P.S.: If you want to reverse PACAY, just run "reverse.bat" that is included in the same package.

PACAY is not referenced by hacktheiphone.com because their approach is teaching users the ins and outs of the hacking process. To play around with the iPhone may get too complicated sometimes. When things get messy it's better to know every step of the way so you can do yourself with confidence than just relying on a simplified straightforward solution. That's because if the simple solution doesn't work you'll get lost.

PACAY is a simple solution for those who don't have the time or will to go through all the process. Any modification to your phone has the potential to harm it, but PACAY was tested with my phone several times and with other people's phones as you can see in this thread.

I would love to say "it has no risk", but I have the obligation to say "use it at your own risk".

Cheers.

Once I jailbreak my phone, do I just run the "Click Here Activator" icon with the windows command shell still open....or do i have to close that window or does it not matter?

As long as you unpack all the files it doesn't really matter.

The problem is that sometimes people mistakenly click the "activate.bat" script directly in WINRAR (or the equivalent you're using) windows without unpacking everything first. As long as you make sure all files are unpacked and in the same folder you should have no problems.

You should do the first 10 steps, and the do step 11, which is generally related to jailbreaking your iPhone.

All was activated perfectly ( I left Itunes ON, was that the error?) But Youtube says cannot "Cannot connect to Youtube"

Any clues?
besides re do without Itunes & Itunes Helper?

OK:
I first deactivated, the reactivated without Itunes + Itunes Helper, worked fine. thanks

Olá conterraneo!

Uma pequena dica: você já considerou colocar o script para já fazer o jailbreak? Eu tenho usado o ibrckr (usei em mais de 10 aparelhos já, junto com seu método), mas seria até mais fácil se o seu script ja fizesse o jailbreak, que nem o script para instalar SSH (o sshify-windows)

bom, apenas uma dica... abs

Hello Brasuco - excellent work it appears many people are having success... except me!

I am running iTunes 7.4 on Windows Vista, iPhone firmware 1.0.2

The problem I am having is at the end of the whole process after your activate.bat file (for vista) runs, I open youtube and get an "Unable to Connect" error message. Here are the steps I am using to reproduce (forgive me for the excessive detail, I want to make sure I don't leave out anything that might be important).

1) Open iTunes 7.4 in Vista
2) Reboot iPhone into restore mode (hold power + home for ~30 seconds)
3) Restore to iPhone 1.0.2 in iTunes
4) After step 3 completes, I kill iTunes.exe and iTunesHelper.exe

At this point, I have a clean-slate iPhone v 1.0.2

5) Jailbreak iPhone using iBrickr v0.8 with the old iTunesMobileDevice.dll (file version 7.3.85.0 - the same one included in your script zip file) - this involves opening iBrickr, clicking "Free my phone", reboot into restore mode (step 2 again), then waiting about 5 minutes

At this point I have a jailbroken clean-slate 1.0.2 iPhone, unactivated. I am now ready to run your script

6) I run the "point and click activation (with youtube) vista/(CLICK HERE) activate.bat" file.
7) I press enter on the "are you ready?" prompt - Here's the output of your script

9) I press power to boot it back up - the iPhone is activated and it goes to the main screen.
10) I click on YouTube -

Now, here's the problem. It says: "Cannot connect to YouTube".

Any thoughts as to where I went wrong? Is there another jailbreak method I should try besides iBrickr?

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

What do you mean by "clean state iPhone" exactly?

I'm assuming you have a previous activation. That's the only reason for the script not to work I can think of so far.

I guess if you erase all files in:

/private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/activation_records

Everything should work.


Try that first, if it doesn't work I'll come up with something else.


Cheers.
