Dev Team’s BootNeuter fixes Bootloader without pwnage – Windows / Mac Guide

3 April 2008 52 Comments

With the release of PWNAGE, we now have BootNeuter to get any Bootloader to work with the future releases of iPhone firmwares! If you have a 3.8 BL (restoring to 1.0.2 / 1.1.1 using iPlus) you can now use BootNeuter to get back to 3.9 / 4.6 BL and fakeblank it which means no more restrictions with bootloaders! You can do it all from the comfort of your iPhone as shown πŸ™‚

Well, since Zibri forced all ZiPhone users to 3.9 BL voiding their warranties (since we can’t get 4.6BL back!), BootNeuter comes to the rescue yet again…. the image better describes it all πŸ™‚ So, rock and roll with pawnage, wait for ipsw tool to build your own firmwares and then start the party atleast till the official release of iPhone 2.0 firmware! It should sustain the unlock and jailbreak out of the box πŸ™‚ More on this here … All props to the Dev team πŸ™‚ Donate and keep the iPhone hackery alive!

Just download this file for 1.1.4.

Extract the BootNeuter.app and SSH it to your iPhone using FUGU (Mac) or WinSCP (Windows).

Then set the suid bit for root and change the owner to root using the following commands via SSH :

chmod u+s /Applications/BootNeuter.app/BootNeuter
chown root:wheel /Applications/BootNeuter.app/BootNeuter

Steps to follow : (Continued)

Settings -> General -> Auto-Lock -> Never (To ensure a hassle-free WiFi FTP!).

Then note down the IP address from Settings -> WiFi

SSH BootNeuter.app to your iPhone using FUGU (Mac) or WinSCP (Windows). (User : root, Port : 22, password : alpine).

Launch Terminal (Mac) or Command Prompt (Windows) and enter the commands as shown :

password : alpine

copy the following for the last 2 commands and paste in the Terminal:

chmod u+s /Applications/BootNeuter.app/BootNeuter
chown root:wheel /Applications/BootNeuter.app/BootNeuter

Restart the SpringBoard and now you have a fully functional BootNeuter.app!

    Hello all,
    Thanks for all the valuable info. Got everything finally working after my 2.2 upgrade and sorted out the no signal issue with the bootneuter . I have the 2g iphone …. But now I have no sound or no ipod…… I have a vibration when i get a call but no ringtone, and no sound with my ipod. Any Suggestions? I cant figure it out at all! Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • kkiran said:

    Sound should be enabled in iPod no matter what. I would suggest flashing a stock firmware and try.

    I believe that you ought to write more on this topic, it might not be a taboo subject but
    typically people don’t talk about these issues.
    To the next! Kind regards!!

    Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and

    gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to

    her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside

    and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is

    totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
