As some of you may know, the Pwnage Tool 2.0.2 for OSX has been released, unfortunately this leaves Windows users out in the cold, however there is a solution. Read more to find out how

If your a Windows user and you can’t wait to pwn your iPhone with 2.0.1 then you have another option. You can restore your iPhones, using a custom firmware image.

There are 4 images available

(Unfortunely because we dont own a iPhone 3g we cant tell you what the ACTIVATED firmware will do.)

Thanks to Steven Lu, for these images.

NEW LINKS TO COME

Enjoy your iPhone (and now iPod Touch), with the new 2.0.1

          I just finished upgrading. As i said… the WiFi doesnt work. It takes the IP 169.254. …. meaning it cant communicate with DHCP…

          I dunno how.. but I am jumping back to 2.0 .. i hope i can.

          if anyone has a fix for the wifi problem please let me know!

                    It allows other AT&T customers to use the same iPhone. I have tested this myself. If you let itunes activate then you can only use the sim card that activated. If you fake activate you can use other AT&T sims. In other words The phone is still locked to AT&T but you can use other AT&T cards that do not have a iphone plan.

                          Yeah I’ve tried both the custom firmware linked above and the stock firmware and with either one loaded winpwn’s pwner’s button is still greyed out so I can’t pwner my phone. Very odd.

                            oh.. my bad.. i just found out doing the restore back to 2.0 will fix my wifi issue.. apparently it happened to be that my router was not behaving well.. So i slapped it a bit.. jumped back to 2.0.1 and now .. i am good.

                            But i was wondering.. installer 4 looks empty.. nothing is in there.. when i hit the refresh button on the source section with ripdev source link.. after a while it says the connection timed out.

                            Since I see in your image up there.. that you are able to put some wallpaper backgrond.. i thought summer board is now out for 2.0.x .. could you let me know how i could do that?

                              what image are you refering to? and SummerBoard 2.0 is not availiable yet, but WinterBoard is available through Cydia

                              yeah i finish process with winpwn and for now is very good

                                                you must first download the official version of the firmware, and pwn itunes with that, then you may restore directly through itunes

                                                      yes iTunes has to be Pwned first using WinPwn or XPwn

                                                        you must pwn with WinPwn or Xpwn First, or else this will not work

                                                          you dont need to update to 7.7.1 i dont think but updating will not effect this in anyway, however before restoring in DFU mode, you must pwn iTunes first

                                                                  I have noticed that SummberBoard is not out for the 2.0.x firmware of the Iphone. And I have tried the winterboard available in Cydia. But it doesnt give me much preference over how I can manage the Springboard.

                                                                  It seems like it will load everything in a theme.. the icon sets and the dock style. What I would want is to be able to disable the icon sets yet have a background on my Iphone of my own choosing, even those which I select from my own synced images on the Iphone.

                                                                  Do you know how it could be done? anybody?

                                                                  • At 2008.08.10 19:29, Jon said:

                                                                    sorry!

Just a point of note. SummerBoard was the most useful and appealing app I have ever downloaded from installer. I used it everyday… and was happy when my iphone showed me things the way I wanted it to. heheh..

                                                                    Nice work here … i used ur custom firmware for the 2G iphone to flash my phone.

Since I’m stuck with it I would like to mod it if I can. If someone knows how to make it work that would be great.

                                                                                • At 2009.07.02 02:23, Hell0z.... said:

                                                                                  I’ve recently installed the 3.0 release, the phone works but it’s stuck on Rogers Canada.

                                                                                  Some help would be apreciated.

                                                                                  _electro_
