Jailbreak iPhone/ iPhone 3G Firmware 2.2 Using QuickPwn for Mac
Tagged Under (Guides) by Sayam

     This guide is for those who have an iPhone 3G/ iPhone and contract with their carrier and just want to jailbreak and get SSH access etc.

Before starting, download the following things:

iPhone Firmware 2.2 for iPhone 3G

or

iPhone Firmware 2.2 for iPhone

iTunes 8.0.2

QuickPwn 2.2 for Mac

     NOTE: This tutorial will currently not work with the new Uni-body Macbook (s) as they do not detect iPhone in DFU mode.

Now, let’s get started!

1. Download all the files listed above.
2. Open iTunes and select your iPhone in sidebar.

3. Hold the option button on the keyboard and click on restore, a browsing selection will pop-up.

4. Find the firmware file you downloaded in the first step, select it and then click open. iTunes will now restore the phone.

NOTE: Restore process may take 10-15 minutes.

5. Make sure the phone is connected via USB and open QuickPwn you downloaded in the beginning.

6. Let it detect your device (iPhone/ iPod Touch/ iPhone 3G and the firmware you downloaded)

7. Now choose if you want to have original bootlogos or the Pineapple and Steve Jobs logo byDevTeam as your bootlogos.

NOTE: It will display another pop-up for 2G users asking them if they want to use phone with contract (this will keep it locked) or not (this will unlock it).

8.  Let it run the process.

9. Now, it will ask for your Mac’s Password, type it and click OK.

10. Make sure your device is connected. Now it will ask you to turn off your device, do it and then follow the onscreen steps to initiate the jailbreak on phone.

11. After that, it will send some files to your phone, do not interrupt.

12. Finally, you will get a Successfully pwned message at end.

13. Now, there will be some messages displayed on phone’s screen, again, DO NOT INTERRUPT.

14.  After that the phone will reboot and you will have Cydia and installer on home screen.

I keep downloading the firmware and everytime I do it on Safari (i have a macbook), it opens up the download box and starts downloading. And the icon quickly changes from .ipsw to .zip ! And then the file doesn’t open ! Gives me an error upon unarchiving. Anyone know how to fix this ?


Shadz on 13 January, 2009 at 2:41 am #

I got it ! All I had to do was change the name of the file from the .zip to the .ipsw !
Damn safari >_>

after step 4 it asked me to insert a valid SIM card. Wtf ?! Then it just went back to being locked again :S


Shadz on 13 January, 2009 at 6:08 pm #

Success !!! =D I unlocked my iphone using your way. 1 thing though to users, after Step 4, remove the SIM card from your phone. Especially if it’s the same one that was locked to start off with. Keep the iPhone without a SIM card after your update and work till the last step without it. For details on yellowsn0w after the last step, watch this video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ3tEi8NC5w
or visit http://www.techbot.net for more details. Thanks a million Dev team =D
