Note - I have updated the step by step Jailbreak Guide for the 2.0.1(and 2.0.2) firmware.
The next update to WinPwn has officially been released. . .now you can jailbreak your 2.0.1 firmware!
click here or here to download it.
The way to Pwn your iPhone or iPod Touch is the same as before(here). . .just remember to go into the ‘application tab’ to include Installer in your jailbreak.
Now we’re waiting for the owners of the repositories(BigBoss, Skylar, R4mon, ipod touch fans, etc) to release their sources for the new Installer.
Subscribe to our RSS Feed and I will keep you updated on new sources when they are released.

You’re welcome. I knew when I woke up and winpwn.com was down that something was up.
John Says: 09.08.08 at 8:44 pm
So this is for windows? and when do u think ull post a video on how to jailbreak my ipod?
James Says: 09.08.08 at 8:53 pm
What is the diff btw 2.0.1 and 2.0
John Says: 09.08.08 at 8:54 pm
2.0.1 is less buggier from what Doug told me I’m downloading and installing it now
Doug Says: 09.08.08 at 9:01 pm
@john, yes this is for windows. i normally do the step by step guide instead of doing a video. it’s easier for me to explain things with the guide
@james, from what i heard 2.0 was really a beta that was pushed to the public early. but even if it wasn’t it was full of bugs(and slow). 2.0.1 is 2.0 but updated to fix the issues and optimize the code.
John Says: 09.08.08 at 9:03 pm
i cant wait for ur guide to come out so i can jailbreak my ipod the right way
ty Says: 09.08.08 at 9:15 pm
hi doug. Thanks for the updates. Quick question. What will I have to redo once I update the custom firmware? Like, will I have to re download all my custom apps andsetup my email and stuff, or will everything me restored once the firmware is updated?
S41N7 Says: 09.08.08 at 9:16 pm
installed, updated and working great :-)
S41N7 Says: 09.08.08 at 9:21 pm
what sources work?
Maggot Says: 09.08.08 at 9:25 pm
All of them are supposed to work.
Doug Says: 09.08.08 at 9:26 pm
@john, the guide is already out
http://www.installerapps.com/jailbreak
@Ty, normally it asks you if you want to restore from a backup. for me it didn’t, so i had to restore as a new device.(but i restored from an already jailbroken device, so that might have been the reason)
@s41n7, that’s the last piece of the puzzle, we are now waiting for the owners of the old respositories(skylar, bigboss, etc) to release a source compatible with the new installer
Maggot Says: 09.08.08 at 9:37 pm
im lost at number 2 for the guide the b) part. i downloaded the winpwn i opened the setup and installed it on my desktop. now what is the b) part for?
2 - Get Your IPSW File Ready
a) 2g iPhones - 3g iPhones - iPod Touch 1.1.5
b) iPod Touch owners that have already purchsed the 2.0 update can browse to “c:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates\”.
Note ‘USER’ is the login name for your windows installation. Like for me, USER is Doug. . .since when I setup my computer I used Doug as the user account. This will be different for everyone
Maggot Says: 09.08.08 at 9:42 pm
do i put part b) in the winpwn setup for the destination folder? cause right now its says
C:\Program Files\winpwn
Maggot Says: 09.08.08 at 9:48 pm
oh i forgot to download part a) for the iPod Touch 1.1.5…….I’m an idiot
Maggot Says: 09.08.08 at 10:50 pm
SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!
VerticallyChallenged Says: 09.08.08 at 10:54 pm
So…
This comes with Installer 2.0?
How do we get the new installer? 4.0 or whatever it is?
Thanks =D
Chris Says: 10.08.08 at 12:58 am
Once i make a custom ispw file then i use ipwner to pwn itunes and then i restore using the custom ispw file after its done can i restore from a back up to get all my info back on the phone or will this delete the jailbreak?
Chris Says: 10.08.08 at 1:26 am
Can you add sources to Cydia or Installer?? If so where can i find a list or sources??
Nick Says: 10.08.08 at 3:08 am
I am having such a huge problem with this
i get all the way to the end and i get error 6 ( unknown error)
i have done the winpwn ispw maker with all different checkmarks and followed all the steps of all the tutorials so can someone please help me?
simpleboy Says: 10.08.08 at 3:27 am
I guess this doesn’t make any sense for ipod touch 2.0.1. I mean I’ve updated 2.0.1 from 2.0 and I can’t download the firmware 2.0.1 for ipod touch anywhere. I can’t download the 2.0 firmware anywhere. googling only displays firmware 2.0.1 download links for iphones. I guess pawning 2.0 and then upgrading to 2.0.1 from itunes doesn’t make any sense. does it? it means i’m left with only one option - pwning ipod touch 2.0. is there a way to download ipod touch 2.0.1 so that I can pwng it?
Doug Says: 10.08.08 at 3:39 am
@simpleboy you have your ipod touch firmware on your computer. you MUST read ALL of the guide
http://www.installerapps.com/jailbreak/
step 2B will show you exactly how to get your copy of the firmware
@nick, I’m sorry, you have me stumped there
simpleboy Says: 10.08.08 at 4:01 am
I’ve read all guide thoroughly but my bad; the firmware for Windows Vista is located in C:\Users\Ashok\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates. I got it from there. Sorry Doug. But as nick I’m getting the same error error 6 (unknown error). It appears when I try to restore the ipsw file. Any idea?
Doug Says: 10.08.08 at 4:12 am
no idea. . .i haven’t gotten that error
simpleboy Says: 10.08.08 at 4:52 am
it worked (no error 6)! This is what I did - update itunes, browse .ipsw, build it, didn’t pwng itunes (i.e. no pressing of iPwner), set the ipod touch in DFU mode, and then done (it did took some time; more than usual). If anything goes wrong I will update here!
Jay Says: 10.08.08 at 5:05 am
im having a problem that i have had before, i cannot build a custom firmware, it just crashes, this happened on the last winpwn aswel. no error messages though this time though, the program just shuts completely. any ideas? or could some1 send me 1 a custom firmware (sorry if that is not allowed to be talked about)
GBE Says: 10.08.08 at 6:40 am
i had also the error 6 - but this was when i choosed the installer! after this i choosed cydia and not the installer and it works…
but i want the installer ^^
could it be that the installer doesn’t work with the 2.0.1 firmware?
Sam Says: 10.08.08 at 8:35 am
@GBE since installer is in beta, it could be a special case where it doesnt work.
It does work for most people though.
bLuE -- GaMeR Says: 10.08.08 at 9:14 am
It works for me, but you must be sure that you installed service pack 3 for win xp! maybe this could help you!
Nick Says: 10.08.08 at 11:04 am
apparently im not the only one whos having error 6, there are forums on the WinPwn site and the ModMyifone.com forums
error 6 is from a non DFU style boot but alot of us (me included) are getting the error even when we are in DFU
apparently its some sort of bug from WInPwn that people randomly got to work
ill post anything if i find out why its not working
Nick Says: 10.08.08 at 1:46 pm
ok i was in a huge rut and tried pwning my phone about 25 times
this morning i did some research and found out that WinPwn.com has a guide from bigboss on it and i followed it
i have a 1st gen iphone 2g with AT&T and for the advanced tab of the winpwn i unlicked everything, clicked both cydia and installer 2.0, i did custom boot images and made partition 550
also the only other thing that i can see that was different than the other 20+ attempts was i got the same number and size firmware from a different place (modmyifone)
hope this helps
Max Says: 10.08.08 at 9:17 pm
1st Question: If I pwn my iPhone 3G now, and September rolls around and Apple releases fw 2.1, I’ll just be able to update through iTunes to a legit firmware, and then pwn again (when there’s an updated Winpwn of course)? 2nd: One of the steps in your tutorial says we have to use iPwner, and that pwns iTunes. What exactly does that mean that iTunes is pwned? Will an update to iTunes de-pwn it? Do I need the latest iTunes for this to work? If other iPods use that computer and iTunes, will there be any problems with that? Thanks!
Scott Says: 10.08.08 at 11:48 pm
I have just jailbroken my 1st generation 2.0.1 iphone. I have the Cydia and Installer application and it seems like the jailbreak process using Winpwn 2.0.4 went well. I was able to restore my contacts, from a previous restore point, however I seem to get no service nor does it recognize my carrier. How to I fix this problem. Also is my iphone now unlocked or will that take another process, and if so does anyone know how to go about it? Thank you.
dragenx Says: 12.08.08 at 11:22 am
I’m little lost here went I open “C:\Users\Soso\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates”. <—Windows Vista I have 3 ipsw files iPod1,1_2.0.1_5B108_Restore.ipsw, iPod1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw, iPod_13.1.3.ipsw I think I use the first one with winpwn or do I use the one I download iPod Touch 1.1.5. I have iPod touch with the update firmware 2.0.1 & iTunes 7.7.1 I’m trying not to ibrick my touch if I can help it
galop27 Says: 12.08.08 at 12:20 pm
Nick, error 6 comes when you try to downgrade and the iphone is not in DFU mode.
Go to http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034 and follow the instructions to put your iphone in DFU and that will solve the problem…
Laymans Says: 13.08.08 at 10:12 am
Just winpwn my 1st gen phone. Got the error 6 in Itunes several times. Found the best setting that actually worked was all the ticks in the right place but do not add custom logos. Worked for me in the end. Good luck to you all…..
noster Says: 14.08.08 at 4:35 pm
Im having the same problem as others…. I have a 3g iphone and i follow all the steps perfectly to winpwn the phone, but once im done, I have no signal and no service. Does anyone know how to fix this? or somehow got it to work?
Thanks
Doug Says: 14.08.08 at 5:25 pm
@noster - that has to do with the youtube setting when you pwn your device
noster Says: 14.08.08 at 7:46 pm
Thanks a lot doug but that was not it… I got it to work by uncheckmarking the activate the phone box in the IPSW builder screen. I forget which tab it is but its easy to find. This is present during steps 4-6. Thanks for everyones help and I hope that I have helped others
Patrick Says: 15.08.08 at 6:47 pm
Just finished winpwn’ my phone and the carrier is no longer displayed and cant seem to make calls. any ideas?? Also cant access youtube, but that might be because no at&t carrier yet.
Patrick Says: 15.08.08 at 8:43 pm
Sorry for posting prior to reading all the post…. @noster that was the trick needed to get the carrier to work. I re-built the IPSW without (Activate Phone) and it worked like a charm. Many thanks to you @Doug for helping all of us here. Take care all!

Hi guys,
I am stuck at step 9,10,11
I put the phone in DFU mode, turn on Itunes… but Itunes doesn’t see the iphone 3G…
Did I miss something?
I tried to do that without DFU but when I press shift and click on Restore my PC is freezing for 5 minutes and then wants to restore the iphone without asking for the ipsw
Any ideas?
Thank you
Wam25 Says: 17.08.08 at 4:09 pm
In fact I was not in DFU mode
Found an easy way to access it
Press Power and Home until you hear the sound that USB is unplugged
Release Power
Wait to hear the sound of USB plugged
Release Home
:-)
