Mac users don’t feel left out by the release of WinPwn 2.5 Beta. The iPhone Dev Team has released the brand new QuickPwn 1.0 for Mac OSX. Unlock and Jailbreak 1rst generation iPhone 2G/EDGE 2.0.2 & Jailbreak iPhone 3G 2.0.2 in Apple Mac OS X. Unlike it’s cousin QuickPwn RC3 for Windows, this Mac version of QuickPwn only works with iPhone 2.0.2

QuickPwn is not a replacement for PwnageTool, they are different tools and provide different features, QuickPwn is for quickly pwning a device, whereas PwnageTool is designed to custom build and tailor the ipsw production process, both tools will be actively developed in the future.

To use QuickPwn 1.0 Mac OS X your device should be running 2.0.2, if it isn’t then you can upgrade it to 2.0.2 using iTunes and then use the QuickPwn tool, we repeat, it’ll only work on version 2.0.2 of the iPhone or iPod touch firmware.

If you don’t want specific things to happen such as baseband updates then PwnageTool should be used to create a custom .ipsw with your specifics.

The iPhone Dev Team have released an updated version of QuickPwn for Windows. It contains the Dev Team’s new bundles for 2.0.2 and have added support for devices running version 2.0 which means the device can be running 2.0, 2.0.1 or 2.0.2.

Here is the updated QuickPwn for Windows, wrapped by Poorlad’s GUI. It contains our new bundles for 2.0.2 and we’ve added support for version 2.0 devices which means the device can be running 2.0, 2.0.1 or 2.0.2. Remember this is still beta software, so usual rules apply, no complaints if anything goes wrong and use the tool at at your own risk!

In addition, the Mac GUI guys on the team are working on a GUI version of Quickpwn for Mac OS X.

The Mac GUI whizzes in the team are working on a graphical Mac OS X version of QuickPwn and also some nice little tweaks to the next release of PwnageTool. As soon as these are finished and tested, we’ll let you know, but don’t hold your breath and refresh for these, the release is not imminent

Please remember that QuickPwn is still in beta so use it at your own risk!

Within 5 hours of the iPhone Dev Team releasing it’s QuickPwn beta command line tool, iPhone hacker ‘poorlad’ stepped up the ante by creating a now officially endorsed frontend GUI for QuickPwn beta. This is a band-aid solution for now as the Dev Team plans to release their own GUI version of QuickPwn in the near future.

beware this is still beta software, it is fairly self explanatory and easy to use. You’ll still see a command-line window popping up when the actual QuickPwn process takes place, but the device and ipsw selection is handled by the GUI.

Of course the Dev Team is also privy to the fact that iPhone 2.0.2 has been released and have promised to look into it after some well deserved sleep.

We’ve also heard reports of 2.0.2 version of the iPhone software being released, we’ll be looking at this tomorrow, but for the moment we’d recommend you stay at 2.0.1.

Apple has released a new iPhone System Software Update this latest version is 2.0.2. This is another mysterious bug fix release with no new features being added (any new features would appear in a 2.1 release). Mysterious due to the fact Apple won’t tell anyone what those bugs are. Maybe this is the rumored 3G coverage bug fix? Apple has been receiving a bit of bad press lately with reports of users having 3G coverage issues that could be fixed via a firmware patch.

If you have a jailbroken or unlocked iPhone do not upgrade to this firmware yet. You will lose your jailbreak and unlock. As always we’ll have to wait a little bit while iPhone developers patch their tools.

As always when a new firmware is released we have archived and mirrored it in our iPhone Downloads section under ‘iPhone Firmware’ :: ‘iPhone System Software Updates’ or you can use these direct links:
