CMW has just updated his website with more screen shots and updates for winpwn 2.5. It will include: - QuickPwn support (2.0/2.0.1/2.0.2) - DFU helper - Automatic updater (yay no more downloading new installers) - Plus much more....
Just a comment about a bug that may or may not have anything to do with Wipwn or Cydia:
:
I "opened" my 2.0 3G iphone using Winpwn and everything went well. However, when I started Cydia application and had to install several "critical" updates, mu iPhone crashed. I had to reboot it using soft reboot and afterwards everything went wel, it seemed.
Then, three days later I could not use the phone application: I could not dial and the GUI for the phone was not complete (the "call" on the green rectangle was not available). Since then 2.0.1 came so, I re-installed everything again using WinPwn. Cydia crashed again, as before, but after soft re-boot went fine. Two days later the same bug: I could not use the phone. I re-installed the entire software using Mac this time. After that, Cydia application did not crash (it was the same beta 4 version of Cydia) and my phone works like a champ for more than two weeks now.
Does anyone has the same experience?
hello waiting for winpwn 2.5, are there any news? it was suposed to come out last week
how ever u guys are doing a great jop and i wait for it. i also want make then a big donation when it will work.
thanks a lot
@David Ab - Are you Mac or PC. Aren't your contacts, photos and music in iTunes, Outlook/Mac Address Book, already? Generally you never lose those things because they just sync back.
iTunes should be backing up your phone automatically, but in itunes, just click on the phone's icon and force a full backup, then you can restore settings and stuff from the backup. Google for more instructins, but I've never lost any data permanently by doing firmware upgrades, restores, etc. I was even able to bring al my iPhone old version data to my new 3G by just restoring from iTunes.
I have a doubt, i have a 2g and am want to upgrade to 2.0.2. The thing is im affraid to lost all my contacts, photos and music. If i upgrade it i will lost everything? Theres anyway i can do a backup first?? By the way, my phone is unlocked on 1.1.4!
one last thing, i did this on my touch. The last comment on gizmodo reads:
"DO NOT use this if you ever plan on unlocking your 3G iPhone. Wait for the full pwnage tool. The iPhone dev team has stated this will also upgrade your radio baseband which you DO NOT want to do if unlocking your phone in the future is in any way important to you."
It works man. i'm not technically savvy about how but i followed what i posted then installed ssch(how you spell that- i told you i'm not savvy), boss pref, & "dock". I was able to sch into the device to change the mobile installation file & run bosspref to remove icons.
Give it a shot.
that dude does not work you try to install apps onto cydia watch it crash phone because it needs the 1000 mb partition to stop it so waiting for winpwn 2.5
How to jailbreak 2.0.2 in windows (worked for me!)
0) Make sure you have the original 2.0.1 ipsw (not jailbroken)
Located in:
a) C:\Documents and Settings\*USER HERE*\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
or
b) C:\Users\**USERNAME**\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update
1) Update to 2.0.2 in itunes
2) Load QuickPWN, select your device, load the older firmware, then let it do it's thing.
3) Tada! You're ahead of the curve :)
