Pwnage option for Windows Users

Well it’s still not available for Windows users officially, but what you can do is follow these instructions from Kinetic-X  and NightCrow then load the pre-built custom firmware image. You will have to download a custom image. Find the appropriate “custom image” off the “custom image” section here.

Step 1: Use WinPWN 2.0.0.3 or later To PWN your 2.0 iPhone. If you need any help on this step, follow my winpwn 2.0 guide here. If you need to unlock, do so in this step. The update to 2.0.1 will not update your baseband.
Step 2: Grab a pre-created IPSW Made with PWNAGE 2.0.2 Mac. If you dont have one made you can grab one here off my firmware links in custom section.
Step 3:Put your phone into recovery or DFU mode. Note that some users report DFU works best while others are reporting normal recovery mode works best. If you have an error, try swapping modes and toggle between these two types of recovery until one works.
Step 4: In iTunes Shif+Click the Restore button and find your custom IPSW Firmware file.
Step 5: Wait for it to complete! ENJOY!

    Hi Kinetic-X,
    Just want to say thank you to all of your guys for all the hard work.
    I have successfully done the upgrade as per your instructions and everything seems to work. I have one issue and I’m not sure how to resolve it. Under settings - network the tab to setup edge seems to be missing,and therefore can’t connect to the internet, any ideas.
    Thanx Brian

    were can i download boot neuter? plz help me my iphone is saying it can only make 911 calls

    csaces Reply:

    so i have had a bunch of trouble trying to use different programs to unlock my first generation iPhone. I recently used the newer version of quickpawn (quickpwnRC3) after having restored my phone back to a clean slate and also downloaded iPhone1,1_2.0.2_5C1_Restore and the 3.9 and 4.1 files also (i forget what there names are).

    everything ran fine… i was given instructions and then told to wait as the phone went through different processes and the phone lit up and the last thing it showed was “wait 2 mintues while the final…. is downloaded” and then it went back to the black pinapple sign again. i unplugged it soon after, and now when i turn it on only the pineapple sign comes on and nothing else.

    i’ve tried resetting it (holding power button down), starting it in safe mode, redownloading itunes, and running quickpwn again, but my computer and a friends apple (i have a PC) have refused to recognize that there is any device in the USB port.

    any suggestions? i have no idea what to do

    Hey there, I messed up pretty bad. I tried to pwn my iPhone to 1.14 using the method mentioned above. But WinPwn never actually started pwning, so I used the recovery thingy from iTunes. Now my phone is locked, and when I try to pwn it with WinPwn it actually starts pwning, but it never finishes. After rebooting, after being pwned it shows the recovery image (plug –> iTunes) and won’t do a thing…
    Did I completely screw my precious phone?
    Help would be greatly appreciated

    Learners Reply:

    Use Ziphone “DO IT ALL”,it should go back to normal boot after it finishes.

    [Reply]

    D-Man Reply:

    No you haven’t screwed it… I did the same. To clear the ‘locked’ symptom, upgrade to itunes 7.7 and when you plug in your iphone it will say that it has recognized an iphone in recovery mode and it will need to be restored. Then just click on restore and your away. It takes about 10 minutes but you will then have locked iphone running firmware 2.0. We just need to figure out how to unlock these now!

    Is it necessary to PWN the phone first if it has been Ziphone’d on 1.1.4?

    Can’t we just use iTunes 7.7 to DFU restore the custom .ipsw without first having to use WinPWN?

    When you use winpwn, what BL should you be on for this to work? I’m on 4.6 BL and I keep getting an iTunes 1601 (or 1602 or 1600) unknown error, which seems to be an Apple error that just requires an uninstall and reinstall, but that doesn’t seem to help me. Thanks.

    WARNING…. There are 2 firmware ipsw, one is for 3G and another for 2G…

    You will screw it if you use the wrong one.

    For iPhone 2G use:http://rapidshare.de/files/40034819/iPhone1_1_2.0_5A347_Custom_Restore.ipsw.html

    For 3G, I don´t know, sorry.

    Remember to winpwn your 1.1.4 or whatever version you have before shift + restore in Windows iTunes 7.7…

    This WORKS…

    Wait, the IPSW linked at PirateBay must be a modified version of the real 2.0 IPSW for 1st Gen iPhones. How could it be a modified version of the 2.0 IPSW for the 3G iphone??

    I think your comment holds no water, and the above steps in the method are valid - UNLESS the uploader of the modified IPSW had PWN’ed the wrong IPSW from Apple, which is possible, but very unlikely.

    My question being will this work for 3.9 BL?

    I am Uploading the custom firmware to rapidshare, and will be putting up the link once its uploaded(0:55 left). So i tried this and it works flawlessly, really easy to do. I didnt install bootneuter on my 1.1.4 to neuter the phone since my Iphone couldnt catch my neighbors wireless signal. Although the custom firmware has bootneuter on it, and it automatically neuters your phone for you!!:-)

    For those who took this option, as did I, what you need to do is to unrar the files into a folder, and then ZIP the contents of that folder into a file.

    You are NOT zipping the folder, but the CONTENTS of the folder. You can give this file name any name you want. When it is finished, you will have a file name ending in ZIP.

    What you need to do is to rename this file so that it ends in .IPSW intead of .ZIP.

    Do this in CMD if you can’t do it in Windows.

    Anyway this is how I got iTunes to recognise the contents of the two RAR files, because when I first unrar’ed them I unded up with a folder!

    Anyway I’m now happily on iPhone Firmware 2.0. I did do the BootNeuter first but it looks like you don’t need to do that because after the firmware is loaded the first thing it does is to run bootneuter 2.0 and re-flashes your baseband etc.

    I downloaded BootNeuter 1.0 from the Installer.app just to be sure even though some people below said that it wasn’t necessary… I did it to be on the safe side but now I see that I didn’t need to do it. Oh well, it only took a few mins, so no big loss.

    ok… good luck to you all… thank you Dev team, thank you Big Boss, thank you Kinetic-X and thank you to everyone else here!

    Cheers

    So are those with 1.4 already unlocked and jailbroke and neutered just starting from there or going back to stock 1.4 and then pwn as per the guide ?

    Do we have to go back to go forwards or is the guide refering to stock non jailbroken / neutered phones ?

    Hey guys thanks for the process, here’s what I did to get my iPhone working… I have the first gen iPhone and used Ziphone to unlock, jailbreak v1.1.4.

    (Before I begin if I had to do the process again I would’ve backed up my iPhone before starting - some contacts and text messages were deleted as I had added them since my last backup.)

    Anyhoo,

    1. Downloaded WinPWN & 1.1.4 IPSW file (from Apple) & custom 2.0 IPSW file (from Pirate Bay)
    2. Updated iTunes to 7.7
    3. Connected iPhone to computer (I should’ve backed up my phone at this point). Then closed down iTunes.
    4. Ran WinPWN, clicked on “Browse IPSW” and located 1.1.4 IPSW file that I downloaded.
    5. WinPWN whirred away and then prompted to me enter “Recovery Mode”
    6. I opened up iTunes and Shift+Clicked the Restore button under the iPhone tab, and then located the custom 2.0 IPSW file.
    7. From this point I didn’t touch anything! iTunes and the iPhone whirred away and installed/updated my iPhone. Bootloader automatically installed (I found it took longer than the predicted 2 minutes to flash). And when everything was done iTunes asked if I wanted to restore my iPhone to the last back up which I assented to and clicked continue and then 5 minutes later my iPhone was backed up with all the text messages and contacts and notes.
    8. When I clicked back on WinPWN the pop up had changed to “Your iPhone has been pwned!”
    9. I sent a text message, made a phone call, received a phone call, Cydia loaded, App Store loaded - even bought and played Super MonkeyBall!

    So far so good guys! Thanks!

    Hopefully my details help.

    Hi guys,

    No I never ran Bootneuter, I think it automatically ran with the bootloader prompt screen as I saw in the background the option to choose 3.6 and 4.5 (or whatever those two numbers are), but didn’t need to select or do anything… I just let it run, and waited patiently (more than the 2 minutes requested, probably ended up being 5 minutes)… and it eventually updated.
