Download WinPwn 2.5.0.2: Rapidshare.com

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: [Rapidshare.com] [Rapidshare.de]

Download firmwares: iPhone 1.1.4, 2.0, 2.0.1, iPhone 3G 2.0, 2.0.1

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”.

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:

• forty2blog.de
• stevenlu.com
• ZippyShare
• RapidShare

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.

The development sources for xpwn 0.3, the firmware 2.0 version of our cross-platform jailbreaking library/command-line utility have been pushed onto github. DevTeam tested it on Linux, Windows XP, and Windows Vista for both the iPhone 2G and iPhone 3G thus far, but since it uses the same FirmwareBundles files as PwnageTool, and we know those work for the iPod touch, there ought not be any problems.

Being a suite of command-line utilities, this release is meant primarily for developers. While you can certainly jailbreak (both 3G and first-gen) and unlock (first-gen) with it, it’s not really something you want to try without reading the lengthy, detailed README. If you don’t have the patience to do that, this release is not for you.

For users this news mean that quite soon there will be a new version of winpwn, supporting 2.0.

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.

This is a tutorial, that shows step by step how to use installed Java on the IPhone. Just in case you do not have Java installed on your IPhone there is a tutorial how to do it.

What we need is a working jailbraked IPhone with Java Installed. I used latest firmware 1.1.4, unlocked, jailbreaked and customized by winpwn.

Step 1: Create simple Java application, compile and run.

First of all I’d like to say we all want to use legal IPhones and operators. So everything written below is for testing purposes only :-). Hopefully this technology will be avaliable on all IPhones sold worldwide. You also might need to recover your IPhone, so make sure you backed up all your data. I personally did everything without any problems and needs to recover. Everything you do is your responsibility, etc…

So let’s start, because it’s worth it! It’s just one evening and you will be able to create your personal Java application, compile and run it on the IPhone, and amaze all your friends :-).

There are two steps:
