Hi, I am having problem with my iphone.  I am using 3g, 8gb, 3.0.1 Fw.  I was 
having 
No Service problem so I had downloaded and installed ultrasn0w by Rizwan which 
disabled my iphone.  It worked for some hours then suddenly showed enter 
passcode.  
I tried different combinations but it disabled my iphone. Now when i slide to 
open 
it comes on emergency call mode only.  Does not go beyound that.  I contacted 
Big 
Boss and he asked me to use iphone browser or disk aid to delete a file in my 
iphone.  I tried both, shows error triangle asks to unplug usb and plug again 
which 
is not working.  Pls advise. |Thank you.

Try uninstalling all versions, then reinstalling latest 1.93 for 'everyone'.

running Win vista sp 2, itunes 9, iphonebrowser 1.9.3, iphone 3g 3.1.2

my original issue was that my iphone got locked on the apple loading screen. i 
did 
not want to restore since i was unable to back up my calendar on outlook (i 
also had 
a recent note update that likely wasn't synced either. so i searched online for 
alternative method to getting out of the that apple loading screen loop. i 
found 
that i may be able to delete that error string by using iphonebrowser.

however, once i was able to get iphonebrowser to load, i cannot get the 
iphonebrowser to detect the iphone. i did fernii's recommendation of 
reinstalling 
1.93 for "everyone". i have connected the iphone to computer and itunes loads 
stating this iphone is in recovery mode and must be restored before itunes can 
use 
it. then i load iphonebrowser. but no matter how many times i disconnect and 
reconnect the iphone (itunes acknowledges the iphone being connected), 
iphonebrowser 
does not detect it.

my iphone is jailbroken by blackra1n and i had not installed "afc2 service" 
through 
cydia or done any other step noted on this homepage.

what can i do at this point? is restore the only option? (again, my main point 
of 
not restoring is to save my calendar which i was unable to sync to outlook.)

Steps taken were:
1. Upgrade iPhone to version 3.1.2 (not previously jailbroken)
2. Jailbroken by blackra1n
3. Installed iPhoneBrowser 1.93 on Windows XP SP3
4. afc2add installed through Cydia
5. iTunes recognizes the iPhone and syncs just fine, but iPhoneBrowser fails to 
see
it with the error stated above.
6. iPhoneBrowser was installed for "Just Me". Reinstalling for "Everyone" fixed 
my issue.

jacepriester:

Thanks for the steps.

I've also got the same set up as you (iphone firmware version, blackra1n, 
windows OS)
except I just learned of this iPhoneBrowser after my phone froze...

So I have never installed "afc2add" through Cydia. And my iPhone is froze on the
apple screen of death.

At this point, is there anyway to get out of the frozen state without doing an 
iTunes
restore?

actually... i checked outlook and my calendar IS backed up. so i will just do a
itunes restore and afterwards setup my iphone with "afc2add" through cydia

i will write back shortly after restoring and setting up the iphone and let u 
know if
i'm able to work with iphonebrowser.

I'm also getting same error when starting iPhoneBrowser 1.9.3

"Please plug in your iphone via 
USB. If its already plugged in, disconnect and reconnect it."

IPB used to work months ago on Windows 7. Not sure what apps on Windows I've 
installed since. Today I'm using iTunes 10.0, jailbroken iPhone4, Cydia afc2add 
installed.

iFunBox doesn't work either.

I have C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device 
Support\iTunesMobileDevice.Dll (13-Aug-2010) installed.

Anyone been able to solve this issue?

My iPhone4 is plugged into my Windows 7 notebook via an original (white) Apple 
USB cable (not via a non-Apple USB cable and not through a USB hub).
