Troubleshooting:

If you have trouble installing this hack, these tips may help you.

  • Make sure you have the correct firmware. Load a 5G firmware onto 5Gs and 5.5G firmware onto 5.5Gs.
  • Make sure you are running the latest version of iPodWizard, which is 1.3.0.7.
  • Make sure no other programs are accessing your iPod.
  • Make sure you don’t unplug your iPod before it is ready.

If you go into a boot loop:

You loaded the wrong firmware. Make sure to load a 5G firmware onto 5Gs and 5.5G firmware onto 5.5Gs.

If you follow installation instructions, your iPod will be just fine. The risk of any damage is basically non-existant in the first place, unless you disconnect your iPod during the firmware flash.
