Jailbreak the new 2.0 iPhone software Video Transcript
The new 2.0 version of iPhone's software lets you download and install
applications from the iTunes store. However, a lot of applications I
want don't exist there. Good news open source fans. You can still
jailbreak iPhone 2.0, thanks to the iPhone Dev Team. I'm Tom Merritt
from CET.com and I'll show you how on this edition of Insider Secrets.
First of all, this is not a newbie-friendly exercise. You must backup
your data and be prepared to have to restore your phone from scratch.
If you're not comfortable with uncertainty, you might want to hold off
of doing this.
Why would you go to all this trouble? For me it's the capability to
run applications that aren't available in the Apple Apps Store.
Also, I'm showing this in Mac OS X. The Windows procedure of this
recording involves getting a torrented image and using BootNeuter. Take
a look at the steps at sleepers.net.
Let's go. First, you need to gather a few downloads.
Make sure you have upgraded to the current 2.0 firmware in iTunes, and
know where it resides.
Then download the Pwnage tool and the bootloader software. You can
find the latest links at the iPhone Dev Team's blog. Extract both of
these and move the bootloader files to Documents. You'll need an
extractor that can handle RAR files. May I suggest The Unarchiver as
an open-source solution?
Now launch the Pwnage application and follow the prompts.
Read the warning carefully and agree.
It should find your current firmware. Select and press the arrow.
It will either ask you for the bootloader files or find them for you as
it did for me.
It will prompt you to create a new custom firmware. Press yes.
It will ask if you are a legit iPhone. Press Yes if you're on AT&T, or
press no if you want to unlock the phone.
It will build your custom firmware called an IPSW file and it will take
a bit so go eat some fudge or something.
Once it's done it will ask if your iPhone has been pwned before.
If you're going from a pwned 1.1.4 say yes, otherwise say no. In fact,
if you have any doubt, just say no. It won't hurt to re-pwn it.
Now come the calisthenics.
Follow the onscreen prompts to turn off the phone.
Then follow the prompts exactly. Hold both he power and home buttons,
then let go of just the power button and finally the home button when
it tells you to.
If all has gone well, you should get a success message.
Close pwnage and move to iTunes. Here you'll restore your iPhone with
the newly made firmware.
Hold down the option key while you click on the restore button.
Find the firmware file iPwnage created. It's the one with custom in
the title.
Your iPhone will restart. Give it time. Don't freak out. It will
then restore the phone's backup.
Then it will sync.
Now you have the Cydia Application Installer as well as the newfangled
official Apple App store. It's the best of both worlds.
That's it for this Insider Secret. I'm Tom Merritt, CNET.com.
