This guide will allow you to Jailbreak the following devices running iOS 4.01: * iPhone 3G * iPhone 3GS * iPod Touch 2G This tutorial is Mac only. For windows i'll be soon uploading another tutorial. 1. Download PwnageTool 4.01 from the link below 2. Make sure iTunes is up to date (currently version 9.2). If not, update iTunes and reboot your computer. 3. Sync and backup your iPhone in iTunes. 4. Launch PwnageTool and select your iPhone. 5. PwnageTool will automatically detect your firmware. Click to continue. 6. PwnageTool will now ask if you have an iPhone contract that you would normally activate with iTunes. Choose YES if you have a contract with an official carrier (ie. AT&T in the US) and you don't care about unlocking your device. Click NO if you don't have a contract with an official carrier and want to unlock your iPhone. 7. PwnageTool will now create the custom IPSW. 8. When done, you will see the "iHaz success" message. 9. Now that you have your custom cooked firmware, you need to install this firmware on your iPhone. To do so, plug your iPhone in iTunes. Once iTunes has recognized your iPhone, hold the "Alt/Option" key and click "Restore" at the same time. DO NOT click "Restore" without holding the "Alt/Option" key! A dialog box will pop up and you'll be able to choose the custom IPSW file you created. 10. PwnageTool will now install your custom iOS 4 firmware that you just created on your iPhone. This process will take several minutes. When done, your iPhone will reboot. That's it, your iPhone is now Jailbroken, if you need to unlock it, carry on to our unlocking tutorial here. DOWNLOAD LINK download pwnageTool v4.01 from here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AA8EXYFU NOTES ---------- With PwnageTool 4.01 certain devices are not supported this is because they are not supported in iOS 4.01 or they are not supported by our software. We're working on ways to get past these restrictions. * iPhone 2G - not supported * iPod Touch -- not supported * iPod Touch 3G -- not supported 3GS Currently, PwnageTool only works on previously jailbroken 3GS devices with the old bootrom. * 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 4.01 and restore with your jailbroken recovery mode. * If you have an iPhone 3GS with the NEW BOOTROM this is NOT supported by PwnageTool 4.01 3G 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 4.01 and restore from recovery mode or DFU mode. * If you have an out of the box iPhone 3G you should restore using a PwnageTool 4.01 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. iPod touch 2G * If you have an iPod touch 2G (non-MC model) that is jailbroken (but not with Spirit) then you can restore using recovery mode.
