Windows users can now Jailbreak their 2.1 firmware.

Click for details on WinPwn 2.1 for Windows.


Update - The iPhone Dev Team has released the PwnageTool 2.1 and QuickPwn 1.1(for Mac users only).


The 2.1 firmware has just been released for the iPod Touch and will be released on Friday for the iPhone.

Do NOT upgrade if you want to keep your jailbroken iPhone applications.

This update is said to. . .

  • Increase Battery Life
  • Fix App Store Bugs
  • Quicker Backups

I will be updating this post whenever the jailbreak has been released for this firmware. So you can bookmark it(and check back later). . .or Subscribe to the RSS feed, and I will be doing a step by step post on how to jailbreak 2.1 when it is possible.

    Is it ok to upgrade iTunes to 8.0 or will this screw up my jailbreak?

    iTunes itself won’t mess anything up with a jailbroken device(like shut it down).

    The new iTunes 8.0 is supposed to fix that and make backing up alot faster.

    I have a quesiton, I been using my iphone for ages and I recently got the 3g, I never thought about jailbreaking it since I was happy with the device and I wanted to wait for the apple updaed for mms, copy/paste, etc..but these updates never came and I don’t think apple will ever implement these nice apps …anyways, since I’m happy with ATT, I guess I only need the jailbreak and not unlock it, right? now is it safe to jailbreak your iphone and keep connecting to itunes for updates and other things?? I don’t want t lose my data or I don’t want my iphone to shut down or lock on me!!
