I downloaded iPod touch 2.0 firmware from a website for free, upgrded my iPod with it and tried to pwnage it but the pwnage tool 2.0.1 didn,t find the ipsw and when I browse it through expert mode it finds but I am unable to make changes to anything and after that custom ipsw formed doesn’t do anything. I stuck with the 2.0 iPod touch which can’t be jailbroken .help to jailbreak .
