iPhone Dev Team’s PwnageTool 2.0 Released

Posted by Alias420

It’s been released early! The iPhone Dev Team’s PwnageTool 2.0 is out! We’ve got it in our iPhone Downloads section under iPhone Utilities or simply click here to download it.

We are testing it out on both the iPhone EDGE & iPhone 3G and will have a full review our Pwning fun soon.

Files you may need to go with PwnageTool 2.0:
iPhone Firmware 2.0 for EDGE
iPhone Firmware 2.0 for 3G
iPhone BootLoaders 3.9 & 4.6

Don’t have a Mac? If you are using an iPhone EDGE with Windows you can try using iTunes to install the PwnageTool 2.0 custom firmware I created.

From the team:

We’ll be releasing a more official announcement soon, but we wanted to get the tool out there. We sincerely hope you enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed making it :)

Update: Just to clear up some confusion over what this actually does: yes, it jailbreaks and unlocks older iPhones, and jailbreaks iPhone 3Gs and iPod Touches. We only support the 2.0 firmwares.

Update: If you get Error 1600 from iTunes, try: mkdir “~/Library/iTunes/Device Support” ; if that directory already exists, remove any files in it. Then re-run PwnageTool.

Update: If DFU restores are giving you trouble, another route to pwned 2.0 for 1G owners is to use our first pwnage at 1.1.4. Once you are pwned there, you can do a normal recovery-mode restore to your custom 2.0 ipsw. BTW the iPhone does *not* need to be pre-pwned to be able to DFU-restore into a pwned ipsw — it needs to be pre-pwned only for normal recovery-mode restores of custom ipsw’s.

Update: Mail application not working at 2.0? Please restore to your custom ipsw (you don’t need to DFU restore if you are pwned, normal restore will work now too) but then select “Set up as a new iPhone” when iTunes asks. Your first sync will bring back all of your settings anyway.

PC users will have to wait until someone ports the hacks used by the iPhone Dev Team to a Windows application.

Or find a friend with a Mac

Can’t wait for the windows port to be ready for download. Shouldn’t take long, trust. A big thank you very much to the DEV Team…You guys are the marketing key… The anticipation in my eyes was more greater than the release of the hardware. Now thats whats up…

people should stop asking dumb ass questions..
the pc version will take some serious time to make.. we can thank ‘cmw’ for its release in the future..

yes ofcourse u can install games through the itunes(appstore) on ur phone.. the free ones that is.

and no ofcourse the emulators dont work.. harldy any old apps have been ported to work on this latest firmware…

OK, so i have an iphone 2g and wanted to upgrade to software version 2. Ive done that, and when i try to use this software to unlock, jailbreak etc i just get a message that it cant find the correct ipsw, if i select to jailbreak 3G version it finds the 2.0 ipsw file builds a custome one but then says it cant put the phone in DFU mode even though it is stuck in DFU mode…. any suggetions anyone? i ive tried downgrading by installing itunes 7.6.2 and trying to restore to 1.1.4 but i just get an error 20…. so im pretty much stuck, some help deperately needed

This might be a stupid question, but can u unlock the new i phone G3? Form what I understood the Dev team managed to jailbreak it to run third party apps on it but has someone ever managed to unlock the phone? And also would that unlocked phone G3 work in third world countries with GSM providers? Your input is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance
