iPhone Dev-Team Releases PwnageTool Jailbreak for iOS 4.0
The iPhone Dev-Team has released a version of PwnageTool which can jailbreak many devices with iOS 4.0.
Currently, PwnageTool only works on previously jailbroken 3GS devices with the old bootrom.
? If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3G at 3.1.2 (but not jailbroken with Spirit) then you should create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore from recovery mode or DFU mode.
? If you have an out of the box iPhone 3G you should restore using a PwnageTool 4.0 ipsw using DFU mode.
? If you have a Jailbroken 3.1.3 iPhone 3G it is very possible that this can fail from recovery mode, if this failure happens you will need to restore using DFU mode.
? As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on iPhone 3G (on both Windows and Mac) as mentioned in our last post.
? If you have an iPod touch 2G (non-MC model) that is jailbroken (but not with Spirit) then you can restore using recovery mode.
? As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on non-MC iPod Touch 2G (on both Windows and Mac) as mentioned in our last post.
? Others to follow very soon!
