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 🙂

How do you put it into DFU Mode?
Thanks
kiran
eclipse : it is either winpwn or ipsw from me.com either one is fine…. Just restore to the pwned file from me.com…
Kare: dfu is a special mode from 1.1.4,turn iPhone off, then hold power and home for 10 secs and then release power button while holding home button..

I thought i would try out the new pwnage tool. I unchecked the logos and installed on my iphone. Loaded all my content on (2 or 3 hrs.) Then i found out my phone was gone. Restored custom fw. Still no phone. Used the simple mode and restored to iphone. Carrier name was there with full bars. Loaded all my content ( 2 or 3 Hrs.) Played around with installer. Couldn’t get it to install anything. Mail wouldn’t work. Installed openssh and winterboard with cydia . cyberducked into my phone and fixed mail permissions. Had to uninstall winterboard, was making phone crap out a lot. Cydia crashed a lot. When i finally got my phone tweaked to how i liked it i tried to make a phone call. phone kept crashing every time i pushed the phone icon. Am now doing a original restore 2.0.1 through itunes. I figure about 10 hrs. from start to finish.

ken : I am experiencing crashes on all appstore apps, installer may be… Frustrating …

i was able to install the firmware above for 2g but cydia doesnt load properly for me. is anyone else having the same problem?
kiran
pl be more specific with the error messages of the like for better diagnosis ..
jollyblue626
i meant there are no apps to install when i open cydia. there are no packages and it seems to fail when updating its files.
kiran
jolly : I can see apps, restart? It works, installer sucks though….
jollyblue626
thanks for the suggestion… i tried restarting but that didnt work. 🙁 i think im just gonna go back to 2.0 seeing that i cant install anything with cydia.

Hi, I downloaded the custom firmware for iPhone 2G from iDisk, then I putted my iPhone in DFU mode and did Option + Restore in iTunes, previously backed up the iPhone in iTunes. The restore worked perfectly, and then iTunes asked me if I wanted to set it up as a new iPhone or restore it from the back up, then I chose the restore. But, after the restore ends, instead of show me the information of my iPhone, iTunes shows me again the option of set it up as a new iPhone or restore it from the back up! Even when I can see all of my contacts, apps, etc. perfectly in my iPhone! Well, then I chose restore from back up again, and right in the middle of the restore it just hangs up, and nothing happens! What can I do?
kiran
Fede: it is recommended to setup as a new phone every time you use pwned firmware files… You can always sync later ….

My Itunes has been stuck at Preparing Iphons software for restore.
kiran
karephre : Disconnect and retry, no problems…

kiran
Yep, Just WinPwn, nothing else 🙂
