PwnageTool 4.0 Released: Jailbreak & Unlock iOS 4

[mailandrew]

OK, All freaking day I've been trying to jailbreak and unlock.

I HAD 3.0 and 4.26.08 on a 3G (oooooold MacBook running 10.5)

I thought I had to upgrade to 3.1.2 then jailbreak and I was all worried about baseband (T-mo FTW)

So No. It was as simple as this:

Upgrade (well, I chose to "restore") to 4.0 through iTunes
Run Redsn0w [EDIT: learned the hard way to use redsn0w 0.9.5b5-3]
connect to a wi-fi access point
turn off 3G in settings>general>network
go to cydia
install ultrasn0w
reboot

AWESOMENESS!

Thank you so much to all the people who stayed up late nights making this possible!

Check the news page of MMi. Says it right there. No jailbreak/unlock for the iPhone 4 yet. And unlock may be further along.

iPhone4 Has New Baseband OS, ultrasn0w Will Need Rewrite

Ok fellas I am hoping for a little advice. I've had a good read around but I'm still not sure. I currently have a 3GS that I have JB with b1ackrain. It's an untethered JB. My version is 3.1.2 and Model is MC131B.

As far as I can understand..I should be alright to use Pwnage 4 (although I don't know how or if I need to back up my SHSH)

Any pointers would be appreciated muchly!

If You Have An Untethered JB , You Can Use Either Pwnagetool or sn0wbreeze to jailbreak , just to be sure... find out which bootrom are you on first.. iBoot-359.3.2 - then its the new bootrom
iBoot-359.3 - is the old one.

Here is an tutorial to find out which bootrom are you on.

Put into DFU mode, robotic instructions here, lol.
On your computer... Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager
Find "Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller", subitem Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
Right click, choose Properties, go to Details, select
Device Instance Path from the dropdown box. The end of this info string will tell you the bootrom version, e.g. iBoot-359.3.2

iBoot-359.3.2 is the NEW BOOTROM
iBoot-359.3 is the OLD BOOTROM

To Put into DFU Mode , Do This Steps
1. Connect your iPhone to your computer.
2. Turn iPhone off.
3. Hold power and home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
4. Release power but keep holding home until the computers beeps (observed on a PC) as a USB device is recognized.
5. A few seconds later iTunes should detect your iPhone.
6. If the Restore Logo is present on the screen, you are in Recovery Mode, not DFU

Is this true? If it is, I am SOL Well at least if I can get back down to 3.1.2 I can jailbreak again and unlock but that sucks....

No it's not true.
To use pwnage you need to be already pwned (if you can get to 3.12 you can pwn your device if it's not already pwned) and you need the old iBoot (359.3 not 359.3.2)
The BaseBand has nothing to do with it.

Thanks confucious....

I do not get an error per se, it just hangs about 1/2 through the restore to 3.1.2. I leave it for about 20 minutes and it doesnt move. I'm on iTunes 9.2 but I am going to try it on a iTunes 9.1 in a few more minutes. When I tried it last time, I got an error 1015 (using iTunes 9.1) but I think using blackrain gets me out of that loop. Once I hopefully get back to 3.1.2 I will jailbreak then try to upgrade to custom 4.0 using pwntool 4.0.1
I'll let you know and again...well I'll just hit thanks..

I'm good here. Old boot rom and all blobs on sauriks server. Still trying to get to 3.1.2 though, keeps hanging on the status bar screen when using iTunes 9.2 to restore to 3.1.2

[mrrippey]

tried to repeat blackra1n?

i have a question about the ssh

does it work on 4.0? and if yes how? would be nice if some one send me a private.

i tried it already 4 times, but always the same error "Server unexpectedly closed network connection"

SSH is at "On"

MobileTerminal isn't working

Sorry for this question in this Thread, but donno where to ask it

[mrrippey]

well back to 3.1.2, 5.12.01 modem, unlocked so I have signals again. Now do I really upgrade to 4.0? I changed the source in the pwntool to http://apt.saurik.com/dists/tangelo-...s-arm/Packages. Is that all I need to do?

no more for me. Tried to do a 4.0 upgrade and it stalls at the very end. I'll stay at 3.1.2 unlocked and working until something easier comes out....

I have a 3gs with old bootrom. I have never JBed yet so no shsh files or such. Is there any way to jailbreak and unlock myPhone?

Any help is appreciated.

[confucious]

What FW are you on?

[andcrashingsounds]

does anyone know if the MMS issues((Being able to send, but not receive)) for t-mobile are fixed with this jailbreaking compared to the other version of pwnage?

[arin2010]

Originally I used Spirit to jailbreak to 3.3.1 and when I tried restoring using the custom 4.0 firmware, it wouldn't take. I figured the Spirit jailbreak had something to do with it, so I downgraded to 3.2.1 firmware and used BlackRa1n to jailbreak it.

A small issue I just ran into: I opened Cydia for the first time after installing custom 4.0 and it wouldn't load (was just a black screen). I turned the phone off, then on and it loaded fine.

what version of itunes are you using? i did my jb with black rain at first then when I went 3.1.3 I had to use spirit, I saw something on here saying not to use the most current version of itunes.

Hopefully someone can help me out here.

What does it mean for people with a 3.1.3 old bootrom unjailbroken 3GS? Does it look like a solution is in sight? should I upgrade to IOS 4? Should I wait at 3.1.3? Can I jailbreak my 3.1.3 GS and downgrade to 3.1.2? Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks

My phone had no service (3.1.2 - blackra1n), so after trying numerous methods I updated and restored to OS4.0, I now have service but my baseband has changed from 05.11.07 to 05.13.04. I believe that I have the old bootrom, but I tried finding the info under Device Manager but the Canadian version doesn't seem to display it.

Does this current Jailbreaking method support my phone? Or am I sht out of luck for the time being?

Thanks

[z28kid]

Ok, so after going back a ton of pages, I am on 3.1.3 currently jb wtih spirit on 3.1.3 previously jb blackra1n on 3.1.2 and 3.1.1. I have the old boot rom iBoot-359.3.

when you tried to look up your iboot# to see what bootrom you had, did you have your phone in DFU mode or recovery mode. Be sure to have it in DFU mode. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiTcKMZfyfk]YouTube - How to put your iPhone in DFU mode[/ame]
there is a link on how to do it

[confucious]

If people have their 3.12 blobs on file (and have old Bootrom) they can downgrade to 3.12, JB then use pwnage.
If you are 3.13 without blobs or have the new BootRom they should stay on 3.13 JB with Spirit and unlock with UltraSn0w.
The 3G has no problems and a straight upgrade to 4 and JB with RedSn0w works fine.

Well, I found what I was looking for from the "bay". itunes 9.0 did all the stuff from the guide then had to update to itunes 9.2. Maybe it was just me but I thought I had seen something from the beginning to not update to itunes 9.2
