Dev Team Releases Pwnage Tool 3.1.4
Advertisements
Within few days of Geohot’s Blackra1n, a much more elegant jailbreaking solution for the iPhone and iPod Touch is now released Pwnage Tool 3.1.4 . This time around, users don’t have to fiddle around with DFU mode like they did with the last iteration of this tool. All you have to do is create the custom firmware and Shift-Restore (Windows) or Option-Restore (Mac) the custom firmware in iTunes!
This release supports the 3.1.2 iPhone software for the following devices:
iPhone 2G/3G/3GS and iPod Touch 1G/2G.
- The iPhone 3GS is now supported out of the box in PwnageTool 3.1.4 (or if you have upgraded to 3.1.x in iTunes)
The iPod 2G is still supported in PwnageTool 3.1.4 but you must already be jailbroken
The iPod touch 3G is NOT supported
Pwnage Tool 3.1.4 Jailbreak Guide:
If you’ve Unlocked your iPhone under 3.0, and want to maintain your unlock, it’s vital to remember:
This release allows your baseband to remain unlocked at 3.1.2, but it does not unlock a new baseband put there by restoring to official 3.1.x. It is super important that people who need the unlock to understand they can keep it only by starting at 3.0 (or earlier) and updating solely to custom IPSWs that don’t update the baseband.
If you used some other method, including blackra1n that involved upgrading to Apple’s 3.1.2, your baseband has also been updated and there’s no unlock until someone figures it out, and the Dev Team has no time table for that.
If it’s unlocked and jailbroken I would consider leaving it at is unless you find it to be buggy or crashing often.
You could always update it to Pwnage Tool 3.1.4 of course if you really feel you need to be on the latest firmware but just make sure not to update the firmware 1st via iTunes.
If I buy an iPhone 3gs 32 gb 3.0.1 that was unlocked and jailbroken using Redsnow 0.8 and has Cydia, is there anything else you recommend I do to it when I get it?
