I read that someone else was having the same problem of Pwnage tool crashing. I'm having this problem also.

Is this a PPC thing? do I need to be running Intel? I tried everything that was suggested, uninstalling and re-installing Pwnage, but it still crashes in the same spot. Just says in the log "Unzipping .ipsw to tmp/ipsw"

any one else having this problem? any solutions????

>edit: I think I ran into somewhat of an explanation, I actually uninstalled pwnage this time (just deleted the icon), and then double clicked the .dmg, and dragged the icon to my applications folder and got this error "One or more items have special permissions and cannot be copied. Do you want to skip them?" the options I have are 'stop' and 'continue'. I pressed continue and launched Pwnage again, and it still crashes.

For some reason pwntool rite now is not stable cant blame dev team since everyone out there is been bugging the dev-team to put it out soon. For some ppl it is working properly for other it doesn't . I suggest you follow the same routine and use pwntool to get to the point where the iphone is put into DFU mode with 2.0.2 and then USE A CUSTOM FIRMWARE found on the net for 3.0 made by someone who has success with it and put that into tunes follow the same steps as i have posted except with pwntool and 2.0.2 and then force quite and load itunes and you know the rest.

Pwnage tool has quit unexpectedly. I keep getting this. I have downloaded the program from a torrent (official link from dev team site) and from modmyi members area. Both fail. I downloaded it through firefox as suggested above. I have updated my 3g iphone to 3.0 via itunes. I have restored the iphone to factory default so its basic config. I have even setup a new osx user account so the phone and mac are basic as possible. Can anyone help?? Really need to jailbreak the phone and get all my apps back. Thanks

sorry, just seen above posts^

Here it is again and since i am posting again let me explain why you are getting the 1600 error..!!!!.
Oh if you are wondering how you can get the custom ipsw. I cannot give you a link due to rules on MODMYI. But google the 3.0 custom firmware its out all over the place, Best bet is torrent sites, as for the quickpwn and iphone 2.0.2 ipsw google those too and you shall find what you need. Remember the reason for the quickpwn RC3 and the 2.0.2 is because of the forced boot loader it has it its version. It open your phone up to force the custom ipsw in itunes to load avoiding the 1600 problem!

Please send your love and say thanks !!!

Having the same problem on my iPhone 3g,I have to schroll from the beginning to the end on cydia.also some of my themes don't look right when I install them. I am going to restore it and do it again. Going to use firefox like they said and not safari

[elle49]

any explanation for the "One or more items have special permissions and cannot be copied. Do you want to skip them?"

sorry if this is a stupid question but im gonna ask anyway...im on osx 10.4.6 and im wondering if there will be any issues since im not on 10.5.7? thanks in advance

[roshansri]

Should not be a problem as long as itunes is updated for 3.0

im having issues with pwnage tool. about 1 min into building custom ispw the program shuts down. btw i have 3g trying to jailbreak 3.0 on OS X. Help please.

I'm getting pwnage tool crashes on tiger PPC. I've got a iphone 3g updated to OS 3.0. If I open quickpwn, it doesnt let me select the iphone 3g so I cant load the downloaded custom restore. Theres so much info everywhere, its kinda confusing. Has anyone with the above setup got this working? Is the pwnage crash a PPC problem? Does anyone know of a step by step guide to jailbreak OS 3.0 on a 3G or alternatively, can I downgrade my phone back to how it was before I upgraded to OS 3.0? I really need it jailbroken and would rather revert till pwnage tool crash is resolved. thanks

i went with aussiebob's suggestion of redsnow and seems to be fine. i have cydia

[rampmike]

Just tried to upgrade my software to 3.0 from 2.2.1.
Followed the instructions to the dot. All went fine until iTunes started verifying the software on my iPhone and I got the error message "10".
Could this be because I am using a powered usb hub (I can't upgrade my phone on a Mac Air without usb hub due to usb issues).
Tks. Mike

Jailbroke my 3g 3.0 with windows using redsnow thank god for that its awsome

THANKS AUSSIEBOB FOR THE LINK WAS EASY

You CAN use Safari. Just turn off the feature for opening "safe" files after downloading. You don't HAVE to use Firefox.
