Hi there guys as you know for your iPod users out there... their is a new update version witch is the 3.0 i have a ipod touch 2nd genaration. just wondering if there is anyway to get the update without paying for it as this update is for free for the iphone.. just if any of your guys know a way to get the update for free?# thanks-bigclap
yes its call jail-break or jail hack or w/e, search for the torrent and follow the instructions... i have the file, if you need it ill just upload it on megaupload...
there is a way to update it to 3.0 and its not jailbreak i dont recommend jailbreaking since u will lose ur waranty search on google, its easy to find keywords: itouch 3.0 update
Just do a search in your fav search engine, you can download the firmware off many sites and just update it thru iTunes. There is no need to jailbreak it. Even if you did jailbreak your device, you can still restore it in the future before sending it for warranty. Once you have the 3.0 Firmware downloaded into your hard drive, goto iTunes, under your iPod device, hold Shift and click Check for Update. Select your new firmware, and tada!
Thank you all your guys i no longer need anymore advise on this topic as i already done it... thank you Great day..
why bother to install the new firmware? general rule of thumb is - if it ain't broken don't try to update it
i have a question, does the old generation ipod touch also upgradable to version 3.0? i have never updated my ipod before, so i havent got any experience on it. thanks in advance
Yes. Just pay the $10 for the update... right now the newest is 3.1 I believe which isn't jailbroken yet.
If you have the 1st gen or 2nd gen Ipod Touch then here is the link on how to update http://www.sizlopedia.com/2009/06/20/update-ipod-touch-to-firmware-30-free/ this is not a jailbreak this is an update file very easy and i have done it yes i know its the 3.0 and the 3.1 is the latest but not much of a diffrence... well there is not any really.... thanks :wavey:
What is this update or upgrade? I don't get it. Are ya'll talking about the itune thing or what? If so, I thought that's automatic. Okay .. now I am just confused ... lol Is this "new" supposed to do certain things/functions?
This is the update for your Ipod Touch so nothing to do with iTunes... The Update has the same function as the Iphone so it alloys you to copy and paste now and you can have bluetooth and voice record and the finder and many others.... this is the 3.0 update.. for the 3.1 this will fix any buggy problem on the apps such as safari now its better and faster on the 3.1 update..... and i think thats it on that but back me up if there is anymore.. thanks-bigclap
"The update previously retailed at $9.95 and can now be purchased for $4.95 - UK users now pay £2.99 instead of £4.99."
I think it also allows compatibility with the new iTunes 9 features (such as app organisation) - i could be wrong though ( i havent updated my fw cause iits jailbroken)
For those who have the first generation of ipod touch, you shoud stay with the 2.0 version, because,the 3.0 is whortless for the 1st gen, the 3.0 activate the bluethooth on the 2rd gen. but the 1st gen don't have a bluethooth
True, but u get other features like spotlight (i know if u JB u get similiar featuers from Cydia) , but there;s also stuff like copy and paste, notes rotation ...from the top of my head
What's the actual capacity for a 32GB ipod touch? Ever since i updated my ipod to 3G using the 3.0 firmware, the capacity seems to decrease to 29.56GB as the original capacity is 32GB. Is there any connection between the capacity and the 3.0 firmware?? I was wondering what could it be to cause a decrease in the capacity?
the firmware itself would probably be the reason in decrease of capcity. 3.0 firmware added a whole bunch of features.. which requires more memory i guess
