The easiest way to do this is to hold down your Sleep/Wake button for 3 seconds. The power slider will appear. Slide this to the right to power off your iPhone. Then hold down the Home button as you connect the iPhone to the dock. After a few seconds the recovery screen will appear. (iTunes logo and cable).

Step Eleven
Once you phone has rebooted click the IPSW Builder button in PwnageTool.


Step Twelve

- Unlock baseband
- Activate phone

Then click the OK button.

IPSW Builder will now ask you for the bootloader images.

Download bootloaders.rar from here onto your Desktop. Double click this to extract its contents.

Mirrors: Filebeam, MediaFire, Direct

Click the browse button for the bootloader 3.9 image and select BL-39.bin file from your Desktop.


Click the browse button for the bootloader 4.6 image and select BL-46.bin file from your Desktop.


Finally click the OK button.


Step Fourteen
IPSW will ask you to select where to save the custom ipsw file. Click the Save button.


Step Fifteen
IPSW Builder will then ask you to login using your administrator username and password. Do this then click the OK button.


Step Sixteen
PwnageTool will then show you that IPSW Builder has completed successfully.

Launch iTunes using its icon in the dock if its not already open.


Step Eighteen
Select your iPhone from the list on the left. Hold down the Option and click the Restore button.


Step Nineteen
Select the custom firmware file (iPhone1,1_1.1.4_4A102_Custom_Restore.ipsw) we just created and click the Open button.


Step Twenty
iTunes will then restore to our new custom firmware.








Step Twenty One
Once iTunes restore is complete your iPhone will reboot and autolaunch BootNeuter. BootNeuter will then proceed to Flash Bootloader and Flash Baseband. Do not interrupt this process. Once BootNeuter is done it will reboot the iPhone on its own and your Pwnage process will be complete!



NOTE***: After pwning your iPhone it is highly recommended that you install BSD Subsystem and SSH.
