For those interested in native apps and iPhone/iPod touch hacking, another Jailbreak software for the iPhone and iPod touch (Windows and OS X) has been released, called ZiPhone by Zibri.
ZiPhone 2.0 claims to work on all versions of iPhone (1.1.1, 1.1.2, and 1.1.3) and has a graphical user interface.
Update: ZiPhone does work with the 1.1.4 iPhone firmware update released today.
Here is a video demo showing you how to install ZiPhone on your iPod touch.
Here is another video showing you how to install ZiPhone on iPod touch or iPhone with 1.1.4 in Windows.
Use iPhone mods and hacks at your own risk! Installing 3rd Party iPhone apps requires you to jailbreak the iPhone before installing the native software and apps. You can also use Installer.app for Mac OSX and iBrickr for Windows PC to do this. Browse the full list of all iPhone and iPod touch native 3rd party apps filed under the software category.

Thank you very much for the attecion!
Hey i did the same..thing..stopped the jail breaking in the middle of the process..and now it is not turning on..what should i do ?
try with other firmware
when i try to jail break my ipod or even get the thing to come up, it says
the app. failed to initialize properly. why does it say that?
you seriously just saved my life. not even kidding, i absolutely love you. thanks soooooooooo much.
Hey! Sorry my bad English. If you have problems with the jailbreaking and the well known white text who continously scrolls down the screen. If your Itouch says “BSD root: md0, major 2, minor 0? - Hold down the home and power switch simultaneously till it shuts down and starts again and release when the Logo( connect to Itunes logo the first logo that appears after you start the Itouch for the first time) appears on the screen. then go to Itunes and Restore your Itouch. I also had the same problems as you and i were so afraid that i’d screwed up my Itouch so i gave it a last try and held the two buttons simultaneously down and the screen turned off and restarted after a few seconds and a few seconds after that again the “connect to Itunes logo” appeared.
download the firmware and press shift + click restore and select the downloaded firmware
and yes, its better getting a free firmware 2.2 and use quickpwn
In that case, what do I do??? Every time I plug mine up, it gives me the screen telling me to connect it to iTunes even though it’s hooked to my computer. I put the iTouch in recovery mode and finally got iTunes to recognize that it was in recovery mode…but it said the iTouch couldn’t be restored. If there is anything I can do, please tell me. I’m desperate!!!!!
I have a 16gb itouch and found this out the hard way. Have you been able to get yours back to normal after getting it stuck? If so, how did you restore it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I prefer Quickpwn… it’s just the best in my opinion. I’ve heard a lot of issues with Ziphone.
mine duz the same thing but i have internet service and it still wont work wtf??

HELP just tried this : from comment-
For anyone who has tried jailbreaking their itouch and it is now stuck with white words. Hold down the power button and home button for 8seconds until it turns off. [have your iphone/itouch unplugged] when it is turned off hold the home button down, while holding plug it back into your computer. this should fix it. It fixed mine.
But turned back on and white stuff still scrolling!
