PwnageTool 2.0.2 released just a day ago. And now WinPwn – iPhone jailbreaker and unlocker for windows is avaliable. The main new feature – it supports firmware 2.0.1.
Download 2.0.0.4:
Download firmwares: iPhone , , , iPhone 3G ,
2.0.0.4 features:
Support for both 1.1.4, 2.0, 2.0.1
Root partition resize support
Installer support
Support for WinXP and Vista 32/64bit.
Notes are as usual:
You MUST do a full uninstall of winpwn before installing the new version
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (from 7.7)
WinPwn uses 300MB of ram at peak due to the ipsw being extracted in memory
You must first click browse and load an IPSW to use WinPwn (i thought this was clear)
For 2.0 only the *5A347_Restore.ipsw files are valid. The 345 image will not work
If you see Failed to load image catalog/payload catalog, this is fine and won’t cause problems
If you already have service with AT&T do not activate or install Youtube Fix
As usual jailbreak for iPhone and iPhone 3G, unlock only for iPhone.
It is recommended to use at least 550mb partition size to accommodate a space issue that causes some folks errors such as “the ipsw failed to create”.
How to:
First create a custom IPSW using the IPSW Builder (original are here: iPhone , , , iPhone 3G , ).
PwnageTool 2.0.2 is out. It will support new firmware 2.0.1. It will jailbreak and unlock the old iPhone and jailbreak new iPhone 3G. Here are the download links:
Installer 4 Beta is included, it is added in any mode by default. The main installer package management interface within PwnageTool isn’t enabled yet, and will report that installer.app isn’t available, but the actual Installer.app package is added as a default option in both modes.
The latest Cydia is also enabled by default. We recommend to use Cydia, not Installer.
It auto-finds the bl39 and bl46 files better, if they’re on your computer
It creates the ~/Library/iTunes/Device Support/ folder if not present, which should help with some 1600 errors people have been having.
Many people have reported the PwnageTool not starting up at all (the icon never stops bouncing). This issue should be resolved now.
The Sparkle AppCast URL is fixed in this version, so automatic updates should work for future releases.
Because of the AppCast URL fix, we recommend that everyone who downloaded PwnageTool 2.0 get this version, if they want to stay up to date automatically.
If PwnageTool 2.0 pwned your phone correctly the first time, you do not need to pwn again with 2.0.1.
The file can be found on , or at .
If you choose to download it from other mirrors, you may want to verify that the SHA1 of the file is 10b6c7dc22286e7b70c3d5a92cda7d117426fda9.
Now older IPhone users users can upgrade to firmware 2.0 and IPhone 3G users have a possibility to have jailbreaked IPhones. That is because PwnageTool 2.0 is released today. Download links are: , , .
Just a reminder: this tool jailbreaks and unlocks older iPhones, and jailbreaks iPhone 3Gs and iPod Touches. No unlock for Iphone 3G yet. The supported firmware is 2.0 only. Platform is Mac OS.
If you get Error 1600 from iTunes (or if you see in your log a failure to repare x12220000_4_Recovery.ipsw), try: mkdir “~/Library/iTunes/Device Support” ; if that directory already exists, remove any files in it. Then re-run PwnageTool.
Reminder: as of right now, there are no apps out for 2.0. Over the next few days some will come out. So do not update yet if you have some favorite 1.1.x apps you are using! 2.0 will not run 1.1.4 apps
DevTeam recently published a video of working PwnageTool 2.0 – for unlocking, activating and jailbreaking IPhne fimware, that will work with the new firmware 2.0.
“Many many hours have gone into this and now it should be as easy enough for your grandmother to use. We’ve added lots of new features, including 2.0 support, spotlight file indexing of .ipsws, canned websearches, installer custom configuration, custom root partitions and various other things that you’ll see on the release. Release date is soon although not this weekend. So check out the video, hopefully it will hold you off until we release.”
PwnageTool works with 2.0 upgraded 1st gen (!) iPhones if they are activated or not.
