PwnageTool 4.0 Released by DEV-TEAM

Posted by Watson on Wednesday Jun 23, 2010 Under Uncategorized

DEV-TEAM had just released the PwnageTool 4.0 (Mac version only) to jailbreak iOS4 (iPhone OS 4. Since version 4, iPhone OS changed name to iOS).

Please read carefully before you start to do anything to your iPhone!!!

As of now (23/06/2010), we know that:
- iPhone 2G is NOT SUPPORTED.
- iPod Touch is NOT SUPPORTED.
- iPod Touch 3G is NOT SUPPORTED.

PwnageTool 4.0 only recognizes the official IPSWs that came out on 21/06/2010. If you had developer access to the “4.0 GM” IPSWs, do not try to use those.


For iPhone 3GS:
- If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3GS with the OLD BOOTROM and you DID NOT use Spirit to jailbreak then you can create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore with your jailbroken recovery mode.
- If you have an iPhone 3GS with the NEW BOOTROM this is NOT supported by PwnageTool 4.0.

For iPhone 3G:
- If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3G at 3.1.2 (but not jailbroken with Spirit) then you should create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore from recovery mode or DFU mode.
- If you have an out of the box iPhone 3G you should restore using a PwnageTool 4.0 ipsw using DFU mode.
- If you have a Jailbroken 3.1.3 iPhone 3G it is very possible that this can fail from recovery mode, if this failure happens you will need to restore using DFU mode.
- As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on iPhone 3G (on both Windows and Mac).

IMPORTANT! Whenever you need to enter DFU mode, you will need to do so using PwnageTool.

Baseband Unlock:
- Ultrasn0w has been updated to cover all basebands from 04.26.08 onward. iPhone 3G and 3GS baseband unlockers (those who rely on ultrasn0w to make phone calls) should always be very wary to update their firmware, however our Ultrasn0w application will unlock all recent (including the current) 3GS and 3G baseband firmware versions. Once you are jailbroken using PwnageTool 4.0, install Ultrasn0w from Cydia and you’ll be unlocked.


Remember! This baseband unlock situation is rare, should you upgrade your iPhone blindly at the next iOS release please don’t expect an unlock.
