WinPwn Full of Bugs?

July 24, 08 by Doug

When I try to create the custom IPSW file(for the iPod Touch), it crashes right at the end, without an error. It fails during the ‘writing IPSW file’ and gets about 24 MB through it.

Is anyone else having an issue like this?

EDIT - Found this on the site

“Some users have had problems with installing Cydia on Windows XP. This will be fixed in tomorrows release”

Sucks to be me. . .lol

WinPwn 2.0 Download Released

July 24, 08 by Doug

WinPwn 2.0 has now been released. If you have WinPwn 1.0 installed, you will need to UNINSTALL it first. . .or it will mess things up.

You can download it here, here, or here.

Installer is of course still not there(currently it’s only Cydia), but the developers are working on a bug free version of Installer for the 2.0 firmware. Expect it within the next week or two.

iPhone 3G Jailbreak Released

July 19, 08 by Doug

There has been an update to the Pwnage Tool.

PwnageTool 2.0.1

Well, the response was overwhelming. :) The downloads brought down several of our servers, and some of them have yet to recover!

It seems that some people have been having problems with our initial release, so we have PwnageTool 2.0.1 for you. It addresses the following issues:

* It auto-finds the bl39 and bl46 files better, if they’re on your computer
* It creates the ~/Library/iTunes/Device Support/ folder if not present, which should help with some 1600 errors people have been having.
* Many people have reported the PwnageTool not starting up at all (the icon never stops bouncing). This issue should be resolved now.
* The Sparkle AppCast URL is fixed in this version, so automatic updates should work for future releases.

Because of the AppCast URL fix, we recommend that everyone who downloaded PwnageTool 2.0 get this version, if they want to stay up to date automatically.

N.B: if PwnageTool 2.0 pwned your phone correctly the first time, you do not need to pwn again with 2.0.1.

You can download this update here, or here.

If you download it from other mirrors, make sure to verify the SHA1 of the file is 10b6c7dc22286e7b70c3d5a92cda7d117426fda9.

July 13, 08 by Doug

Why not check out this website I have been working on. . .AppStoreApps.com?

With over 500 applications available in the App Store at launch alone, who wants to go through all those iPhone Apps just to find the good ones.

Also when the majority of the applications are paid apps(only 125 are free), you want to make sure the application performs exactly how you want it to.

Bookmark the website now. . .www.AppStoreApps.com. . .the official launch will be Monday at 8am EST.

July 10, 08 by Doug

UPDATE 3 - The Pwnage Tool 2.0 has been released. Click HERE for more details.

Click here or here or here or here to download the Pwnage Tool 2.0.


UPDATE 2 - From what I read, this video was released by the actual iPhone Dev Team, so it is real.

The iPhone 2.0 firmware has already been jailbroken and unlocked by the iPhone Dev Team.

This has been confirmed on Gizmodo and they say the Dev Team will release the code ’soon’.

I will post again as soon as it is released with a step by step how-to for upgrading, jailbreaking, and unlocking your new iPhone 3G(or upgraded 2.0 firmware).

UPDATE - Could this be the new iPhone 3G Jailbreak or Unlock(or both) application. . .PwnageTool 2.0?

App Store Open

July 10, 08 by Doug

Warning - If you like any 3rd party applications or themes that you have gotten from Installer(or Cydia), they will be ‘deactivated’ if you update to the 2.0 firmware. Some applications are listed in the App Store now. . .but until the hackers get a chance to get into the code. . .we have to wait.

I hear there is something like 500+ applications available via the App Store. . .and over 125 are free. Now I also hear that a lot of those free applications aren’t very exciting(but I haven’t checked for myself).

Stay updated here at InstallerApps.com and I will post any information about jailbreaking the new firmware when I get it.

iPhone Music Videos

July 07, 08 by Doug

With the launch of the initial iPhone, user generated music videos sprang up one after another. It makes me wonder if the same will happen with the iPhone 3G. . .
