Thank you iPhone Devs for such a fantastic job after a teasing wait for Pwnage 2.0.2! Pwned iPhone 2.0.1 firmware is much faster when it comes to response times and overall a stability upgrade from the buggy 2.0.
Here are the downloads to get you upto iPhone Firmware 2.0.1 (unlock for 2G iPhones, Jailbreak for 3G iPhones included). Make sure you have your SMS backed up before attempting the firmware upgrade!
Please DIGG this article and spread the message to the iPhone community worlwide!
If you want to build the Pwned 2.0.1 Firmware, download Pwnage 2.0.2 and bootloaders here (MAC Only).
If your iPhone is already Pwned (if you see the pineapple logo on your iPhone boot screen), then you can download the Pwned firmware 2.0.1 from the following links. Use HJ-Split (Mac, Windows) to join the files. Once downloaded and joined, use iTunes and Shift+Restore (Windows), Option + Restore (Mac) to select the Pwned firmware. Your iPhone should be Pwned (1.1.3, 1.1.4 or 2.0).

Windows Users : WinPwn 2.0.0.4 is Finally Released. Download it here.
p.s : Providing the firmware file since WinPWN is yet to be released with 2.0.1 support. iPhones already Pwned need not perform the time consuming firmware build process. Enjoy a faster Pwned iPhone 🙂

Man Man & Andrew : I had the same doubt with firmware file size! I double checked it and am using it just fine 🙂 Dev team actually were patching bootloader and stuff, I’m sure a custom version is introduced, hence the smaller size! Lot depends on trust 🙂 you can have my word for it…
Man Man
I did just as i was guided here & it works fine, thansssss man
kiran
Ekse : unfortunately I am working today, no custom logo firmware is on the cards 🙂 I’m sure it’s available elsewhere too…..
Markus : you can go ahead and use this ipsw, it just does what all you wanted including unlock 🙂
Man Man : you are welcome!!

hunter
I have windows… 2g iphone.. 2.0.1 update… is there a pwnage 2.0.2 version for WINDOWS?? ive tried those ipsw up top and itunes retore etc.. but i keep getting error 6 .. any idea?? thank u
kiran
hunter : pwnage 2.0.2 for Windows is yet to surface.
Error 6 : Is your iPhone already pwned (pineapple logo) ? If yes then restart both pc and iPhone and try again.
Last resort downgrade to 1.1.4, winpwn it and then use this ipsw…
hunter
it might be alreeady pwned.. ill check.. then ill try to do what u said.. thnk u

alex
Im really confused here. Which file do I download for my pwned 3G? The one at the top or bottom? Also then all I do is shift+restore in iTunes. Select the file and that’s it? Also what does activate unchecked mean? I’m on windows…we are left behind with this stuff….
kiran
alex : 3G firmware file is all the way at the bottom.
Winpwn is released anyway, pl search for it online..
Rafmaster
I have a stupid question. i just got the iPhone 3G yesterday? which file should i download first if i am using windows? thanks alot
Dave
Do Pwnage Tool and WinPwn spit out the same type of IPSW? By that I mean, if I assemble my custom IPSW on my mac but sync my iphone with my Windows machine, will it do strange things if I build the IPSW and then move it over to my PC to restore from it?
kiran
Dave : no matter which platform you use – mac of windows, it’s the same ipsw that is spot out! You can use it on any platform where iTunes works!
Rafmaster : pl check comment # 65

How long dose it take to restore…my iphone has been setting at the pineapple for a while now.
kiran
Kare : if it is after restoring you see the pineapple logo , you might want to restart I. Best bet would be to redo the restore process..
Karephre
Its stuck there right at the end of restoring. i end up having to unplug it, then it throws an error 9.
kiran
Kare : Put it in DFU mode and restore the custom pwned firmware…
eclipse
hi, i have a 2G iPhone 16GB. i used iLiberty and unlocked and activated my phone. current firmware 1.1.4. how do i install 2.0.1 and unlock and activate my phone? i’m using windows xp.
kiran
eclipse : you can either download the ipsw file in this post or use winpwn 2.0.0.4 … It does unlock, activate and jailbreak by default…
