Any help?
The reason you are getting this error is because it is not in recovery mode... Follow my directions above and you should be good to go. It may take a few tries before you get it right. Although if you are using the latest version you should not have that problem. Again maybe that was not fixed. Let me know how it goes.

Cool, I may try it later. Right now seems like there aren't too many apps out. I want MMS, tivo and maybe orb. I might try it tonight.

Thanks for the info

Sorry if my last post was not of much help. I will be around tonight so if you have more problems I will try to help you out. First thing I would do is go through the whole process of creating the custom firmware again. Good luck!

You can install the latest firmware sure, just be aware when you do update the firmware your phone will be re-locked. You will then have to unlock it again with Pwnage. (if you are on a Mac)

Yes it is. Look around for Winpwn. That is what you will need.
