Update: PwnageTool 2.0.3 Now Available

The Dev Team updated their blog yesterday with a new release: PwnageTool 2.0.3, which you can get HERE (though if you have a previous version of PwnageTool, the auto-updater should find it automatically). This latest version will successfully 'pwn' Apple's 2.0.2 firmware. The Dev Team noted in a follow-up post that iPod Touch users had reported several bugs related to permissions, "so hold on and wait for the next release." Also of note, the Dev Team explicitly states that no new significant headway has been made towards a 3G baseband unlock. Click below for the posts in their entirely: Happy Update Day!

PwnageTool 2.0.3 is available. This version provides support for iPhone/iPod firmware 2.0.2 5C1, it has an updated Installer.app beta (b6) and contains a new .de localization for our large amount of German friends. The application SHOULD ONLY be downloaded as a .tbz file from our servers and should NOT be decompressed using the application called “the unarchiver” (this breaks permissions within PwnageTool) just use the standard OS X built in ‘Archive Utility’ to decompress. The SHA1 sum of PwnageTool_2.0.3.tbz is 91e670e0c623cd43f5e8cfbfaae6c23d98d8f31b Also released today is the ‘150’ beta update to the Windows QuickPwn application, this contains a revised GUI from Poorlad that has tighter integration into the the main updated QuickPwn executable which has fixes for YouTube and provides BootNeuter support for the unlock of 2G iPhones, remember this is still beta software, use at your own risk. The updated tool is available for download here NB: QuickPwn Windows doesn’t work well with virtualization as there are some problems with the way USB resets are handled, so we wouldn’t advise trying it, we have had reports of some success with VMWare Fusion 2.0 Beta 2, but this shouldn’t be relied on, use PwnageTool instead, or wait for QuickPwn Mac. QuickPwn for Mac is being tested right now by a group of testers and we’ll release this when it is ready for public beta (this won’t be within the next 24 hours, but should be within the next week). There are no significant updates with regard to the 3G baseband unlock, most of us have been busy with real life, when we get any further we’ll let you know. 22 hours ago

Swatting...

We’ve had some issues with iPod touch devices and the latest version of PwnageTool for the Mac, in certain conditions incorrect permissions will be used and the keychain doesn’t save passwords. So hold on and wait for the next release, we’ll push out the updated version via Sparkle as soon as it is tested (it is being tested right now). We have also encountered some issues with the Windows Beta of QuickPwn, and we have an update that should fix the issues seen with 64-bit Windows versions and should be able to be used with all versions of Windows, but as with all beta software other bugs may be present. UPDATE: New Windows QuickPwn Release Candidate (RC3) UPDATE: Sparkle update for PwnageTool (Mac) being pushed out now! Direct link here NB: Only use the .tbz file that is distributed by us. the SHA1 sum for PwnageTool_2.0.3.1.tbz is a3faf5c074d5556a40ce4c7678a51995b5767073 12 hours ago
