Hello???

Talks, lies, haters, fans.
I'm sick of this!
This is not a war and not even a game.
I originally developed ZiPhone for my own use.
Then people asked me to release it and I did.
I bought my first iPhone in Semptember 2007.
I released ZiPhone in February 2008.
I know you people are crazy about the iPhone
but believe me, I am not.
I think the 3g iPhone is not worth even buying
for people who already have the
first generation iPhone.
GPS ? I have a TomTom Go device.
3G data ? I have a 7.2 Mb/s card
in my laptop.
Apps ?
I have my iPhone.
Everything else ?
I have my life !

IF and WHEN there will be a new
ZiPhone you will be informed.
Stop asking, hating, begging.
By the way,
maybe you don't know the difference,
but ZiPhone was a real hack.
Software upgrades or custom firmwares
are a totally different thing.
A nice proof of concept, a nice work, but
that's not hacking..
But if that will ever be released
and that suits your needs,
use it. You'll be (hopefully) happy.

Another note:
I'm being reported of many people
faking me on many blogs and sites.
Check the profile (if there's one).
And don't take as gold any word from me that
you don't read here !

To any hacker out there:
FACTS speaks louder than words.

Peace out,
Zibri

    Seriouslly iPhone 3G its nice, but its not like we are dieying for it.
    People who are buying that phone have the money to move to another company.

  7. titu: uninstall mobile software frrom itunes and install a older version from itunes, enter DFU holding home buton you will see black screen, then erase band reinstall 1.1.3. that will fix it since itunes 7 comes with a new version of usb(iphone).

  10. im with yu zibri, take you're time,,,living in peace.

    you know something, I feel that you are a wonderful person, and I am not saying by assertiveness feel good, p =, I only say this that you are one of the few people who strive for something they want, not like us who are awaiting yours .

    is to admire your work

  11. Zibri, Great work on 1.1.4, Developer my self i know what its like burning the candle on both end while still trying to have some form of social life.

    I was thinking you could buy yourself some massive breathing space if you carved off the unlocking and activation tool into a separate beta app whiles working on the best solution for jailbreaking 1.2.0.

    Personally i cant wait for the next full release, but I could live without installer.app for a while as the main reason i bought the iphone was to develop apps for the appstore which i cant do at the moment properly until i get my iphone upgraded n unlocked. Plus the lack of exchange support on 1.1.4 really drives me up the wall.

    Keep up the good work

    ReplyDelete
  12. 100% with you too!
    You work is beautyfull, the program is perfect, and you do it for free.
    All I have to say is THANKS!
    If you release the Ziphone for the 3g that will be cool, but may be you don't have to release it so the people understand how important is your work.
    My advice: sell it by Paypal in $10000 and let's see who is gonna be so desperate to have the 3g unlock.
    Dude, you RULE!

  13. I relize your probely shit'n'pissed off for alot of people giving you a hard time about the iPhone 3G. But Ive heard about a new cellular device called the andriod smartphones soon to be released later this summer or at least the ones i seen though HTC and Ive seen people on our blogs even saying the andriod smartphones are the new direction of the future and not the iPhone and I just what to know what your personal opinion is on these new smartphones. If any one else would like to tell me there feeling on these new smartphones by HTC you can express them to me at: sirhc.h@gmail.com And i'd also like to say that i more than agree with you Zibri.

  15. Zibri, First of all, ALL HOMAGE DUE TO YOU! I sit back and read what most of these fools write, say, and moan about and i have to laugh. I, like others with iPhone (2G) either couldn't wait to get the newer iPhone, or wanted the software update. Phuk dat! I just spent $500 on my 16gb iphone, so, why run out and get another one, just to be like all the other Dicks and Janes who have to have the latest!!! hehehe When i heard about the new firmware 2.0 i was like, "...Gotta have it... GOTTA HAVE IT!!!" But i didn't do a damn thing until i went to your website and read what you said... In fact, all i looked for was your suggestion... Funny, but i didn't even have to scroll down to see that you said, DO NOT UPDATE! My iPhone is totally "Pimped" Unlocked and Jailbroken and i'm so happy with it the way it is...! I see no need in upgrading just yet. I moved from California to Europe so, it was imperative that i unlock my iPhone!
    To all you beggar, whiners, and haters,
    Take a chill pill and check Zib's site for any updates!!! It's just that simple. To all the people that updated and lost everything, well, learn how to undo your phuk up old skool...
    Zibri, thanks so much for your effort, time and generosity. I appreciate your work and Dude, you Rock! Thanks, My Brotha From Anotha Motha!!!

  18. Thank you for such a great product!!!!!
    I easily jailbroke my iPhone 1st gen without a hitch!!!

  19. Zibri!

    You are THE MAN!

    I know many people who would like to personally thank you if you ever got to Singapore!

    Without you, almost NOBODY in Singapore would be able to use the iPhone.

    You are the iPhone KING! If Steve Jobs gave you 1 buck for every iPhone Ziphone hacked outside USA alone, you'd be living in a nice beachfront property overlooking Steve's home with a pool twice as big!

    If you included those within USA too, you'd probably be able to buy Bill Gates' home in cash.

    Respect, bro! PURE RESPECT!

  20. it's obvious what u did was a piece of art , it shows from number of download you had on ur site. but please !!!! stop rubbing people face with it , u've being posting comments after the other , and ending it with if i want and if i feel to. u know what !!!
    as far as it concern me i don't give a shit if u post something ot not . i think u feel bad that other people can do same, maybe better job than u.

    P.S :a litle bit of modesty won't harm .
    peace out ZIBRI.
    i don't care if u'll post this or not , but sure u'll be reading it.

  21. Hey man what up. On Ziphone OS X MAC there is no restore or DFU or Normal mode, is there any way that you could fix this.
    Any way great app though :]:]:]:]:]:]:]

    ReplyDelete
  22. haha such a wise man.

    ReplyDelete
  23. You say there's no reason for anyone to upgrade to an iPhone 3G, and then you go on to list a bunch of things YOU have, like the 7 mb/s card for your laptop, you tomtom, etc. Does anyone else see this glaring gap in logic?

    Well, what about people without an original iPhone, people in countries that didn't get it? What about people who don't have a card and data plan for their laptop, or a whole separate GPS device?

  24. i gotta say i agree with chrismcfet... you people out there seem to forget, you need him, not the other way around. this is his place here, you want real info, get it here!! Z... you tha man, keep up the great work! I appreciate you, so i donated $$$ thanks!!

  25. Hey, keep up the great work, but could you please stop putting auto play music on your site, I know its cool and all, but it is 2008, not 1998 when background music and spinning gif's were cool and everyone had it on their sites. But really it interferes with blind who use screen reader.

  26. Today, Dev Team has released the tool to unlock the previous series of the iphone. you can jailbreak and activate your iphone 3G, that aldo includes the installer feature, BUTTT still cannot unlock the iphone 3G. how long more do we have to wait???

    ReplyDelete
  27. I guess this discussion has already finished but somehow I need to share my humble opinion.
    Actually I see that there´s some 2.0 firmware with an appstore but this will not make me upgrade to this firmware due to the fact that I installed quite many apps, which simply do not exist on 2.0, and the appstore only does not justify any upgrade at all. O.K. I´m using an iPod touch and thus this is said easily. I hope that Zibri will not totally collapse and give in. He´s doing and did a great job. It is obviously that the Ziphone-Hack took some time to be noob-safe. People should be patient and give him some time to rest and to go on - if he wants to. No matter who will hack 2.0 completly will take time. Zibri already stated that the Iphone appeared in 2007. The hack was completed 2008. Now why can´t people wait for a 2.0 hack?...Well...I have my ipod touch with 1.1.4 and I can only hope that the community will continue. If not I will only upgrade if the appstore serves the apps I need or want.
    So Zibri..please dont give up.
    Take some time to rest and then think about it again.

    BTW, youre not stealing. I think you already commented on the opensource thing well in your newest post. If it was so simple to do your hack there would be thousands of ziphone-like-hacks...and there arent.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Zibri,
    I appologize for negative comments some people make,but keep positive man .... you write awesome hacks and hope you write a new "true hack" for iphone 3g !i hate pwn system with custom ispw files, not to say that it doesnt work but i find it to be buggy. Anyway Hope all is well ..take care.. Tdub

    ReplyDelete
  29. I have upgraded to 2.0, but I did use Ziphone before this, and great it was too. Thanks for doing it, and thanks for making it free. Its a shame people are giving you hassle, but I am sure the rest of us who can't do what you can do, are very grateful. Keep up the good work!

    ReplyDelete
  30. I think no one hate zIbri, but I'm sure many programmers are only jealous because he could do something they don't know how to do it

  31. Hi Zibri, VENEZUELA is wit you man, you have a lot of fans here.

    We hope you could unlock the iphone 3G, we no you can!

    All my respects to you =D.

    Chris.

    ReplyDelete
  32. i hope the "break" won't be 9 months long :D
    btw zibri's fans will continue using 1.1.4..

    ReplyDelete
  33. oh btw, how shocking that no negative comments ever get published here. Offcourse they dont when you delite them all before they ever see the light of day...

    ReplyDelete
  34. zibri, ur doing fine. where im from, they say that if u have haters, you're doing something right. so continue with what your doing. best of luck

    ReplyDelete
  35. ah , ok.. approve me please.. to unsecure to allow open discssions?

    ReplyDelete
  36. Dear Zibri,

    thank you for Ziphone app.

    I will continue to use 1.1.4. as it is good 4 me.

    Thank you for your altruistic and unselfish shering of knowledge.

    If there were more people like you I belive that all human kind would be better.

    Best wishes,
    Nik from Zagreb, Croatia

  37. Exatamente!
    Parabéns pelo o que fez. Se não fosse o desbloqueio pelo Ziphone eu estaria perdidão.hehe

    Abraços!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I agree. That's fucked up for people to get pissed at u for not having one out. I think u should just make it back for ur personal use. And not release it. If they keep bitchin tell them to make their own hack.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Hey buddy good work sorry everyone is giving you shit, but dont worry, you did a great job and have made my iphone actually useful and allowed it to have useful features. Your right 3g iphone is crap, iphone 2.0 also crap, all the same apps that were avaliable with jailbreaking will cost with 2.0, apple didnt do anything real diffrent or good they just wanted to cash in on the awsome apps that the community has provided. so thanks again, and if you dont want to jailbreak 2.0 dont. A jailbroken 1.4 is a thousand times better than 2.0

  40. Hello Zibri

    Nice job done by you before and keep it up. As far as people pointing on you must think first that you offered your services for free.....
    How much people all over the world (where iphone was not launched) wanted it. They had it and enjoyed it and now they are complaining. They must not

    It is a common saying
    What Comes Free is Never Respected

    We people in Pakistan are with you who are enjoying iPhones due to your zibri..

    Well done and Well Said

  41. hi-

    i appreciate all youve done for us iphone 1st gen owners. i am and will be hesitant of the iphone 3g. it just seems like another way for apple to make money. its barley, in my opinion an upgrade of the first one. so i'll be patient and wait for your hack cause I'm One of the millons Iphone's adicct.
    Bye

    ReplyDelete
  42. Zibri, all part of competition. From my reading I gather Geo putting pressure on the arrogant Dev Team to put out what they have since they claimed to be the first to unlock and jailbreak 3G. I was behind him completely cause if you're(Dev Team) going to say it then do it...put it out there. He also put out some info regarding the 3G which was good but you are the genius Zibri so please please please put out a Ziphone for 3G. I love my 3G phone and I did upgrade but it's a great awesome phone and is not complete without your autographed Ziphone program. Come on....surprise US!

    ReplyDelete
  43. zibri really appreciate your work. Keep up the good work. So far I think your ziphone has been the best unlocking tool I can find. If you realease an unlock for v2.0 i will for sure use it. Keep up the good work.
    Sad to see people bothering you.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I just want to thank you for sharing your software... Your contribution has been remarkable!!!

    ReplyDelete
  45. I have to say you've done a wonderful thing.
    I can't afford the $10 charge for the new 2.0 upgrade that supposedly will allow me to access apple approved applications.
    My iPod Touch was a *gift*. I got it to replace an outdated palm zire 31. But if I don't have net access, it's a brick. Or nearly.
    I jailbroke it just today using your method(ziphone) after much research and debate with myself.
    So far I haven't found the exact app I want, but I'm sure there is one (IE: Offline Ebook Reader for docs and txt.)

  46. Thanks sooo much!!! please jailbreak the 3g!! UR AMAZING.

  47. Zibri you are the best, and the people that use iphone now that i'm whit you i support your facts and i think they suck ,whit out you they can't do anything real
