    I think i wronly explained it :)
    This app let’s you modify the firmware version.
    Some older applications don’t work on firmware 1.4 and they won’t even install on 1.4 with this app you can make your iPhone say it’s running firmware 1.3 although it’s running 1.4, so you can install those older applications.

    I hope i explained it a bit better. :)

  It’s really i can install apps only for firmware 1.1.3 if my firmware’s 1.1.4? Do you test it?

  It is not working for me. I got it installed but after changing the firmware version I only got “N/A” where the version should be.

  Who can help me getting it back to normal (1.1.4). Which plist do I have to change?

      If you can’t connect to your iPhone with SSH then you will probably need to restore

        i have the same problem and the black screen with the white txt will not go away and i cant put it into DFU mode. the black txt says singleuser boot — fsck not done
        Root device is mounted read only

        if you want to make madifications to fill
        es

        /sblin/fsk -fy
        /sblin/mount -uw /

        if you wish to boot system:
        exit
        #
        WHAT DO I DO????

  Kan kun give the thabigboss ret… Jeg skulle ogsÃ¥ lige “lege” – og den slags gør
  man Ã¥benbart bedst i bonbonland eller toysrus…. for min telefon gik ogsÃ¥ i endeløs loop. Prøvede med ziphone for at se om normalmode knappen virkede. Det gjorde den i den grad at den startede med at loope igen. Ibrickphone fik den i rød og i loop og sÃ¥ fremdeles.

  Med mindre nogle synes det er hammerfedt at bruge timer på at komme tilbage igen, så go ahead.

  Jeg rør aldrig det program igen.

  winscp og carnaval FIK den heller ikke tilbage – kun en fuld restore…. for fanden da, hvorfor sende programmer pÃ¥ markedet SOM ikke tydeligt fortæller PIL ikke med mindre du har en frisk backup og tiden til restore sÃ¥fremt du trykker ja til at pille.

  Thanigboss, I doubt this app did this. It doesnt mess with anything except the .plist file that determines firmware version.

  nice app.
  thanx

  how can i get my firmware back to 2.2?
  fwchanger crashes when i try to set custom fw.
  removing app doesn’t help (i’m stuck back on 2.0 and now half my apps don’t run)

  HELP!!!!
  :roll:

  sussed it…

  removed fwchanger

  then altered: System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist

  just change the two strings: ProductBuildVersion ->5G77
  ProductVersion ->2.2

  that seems to have done the trick!
  :)
