Mac Owners Beware

Author : The Lone Stag


I personally don’t own a Mac. I would love to own one, but I unfortunately do not have the money. For the lucky few of you who do own Macs, this warning from BigBoss is for you.

This is a general warning to all your MAC owners. The OSX update to 10.5.6 disables DFU mode in the USB drivers. It works the same way that it works on the new Macbook Airs. You cannot pwn or quickpwn without DFU mode and in many cases DFU mode saves you from restore issues in general. Rumor is that you can still restore or use DFU mode if you hook up to a USB hub rather than directly connect to the MAC. I suggest that you avoid updating to 10.5.6 until the dev team can work out a solution to this issue. Otherwise, you may have issues trying to get recognized during the DFU stages of pwnage and quickpwn.

For those of you with this problem/upgrade, take heed of his warning.

It is Now Safe to Upgrade

Author : The Lone Stag


I am thrilled to announce that the amazing iPhone-Dev Team has done it again. With lightening speed, they have already released a working version of QuickPwn that jailbreaks firmware 2.2.

This is a simple jailbreak method now. Just update your iPod in iTunes and then run the new version of QuickPwn (download here). It is quite simple really. This will work on any type of iPhone and the first Gen iPod Touch (sorry to all of you 2nd Gen owners).

An Overused Warning

Author : The Lone Stag


I have said it before and I will say it again: DO NOT UPGRADE! Now, I know that the new firmware (2.2) is not yet out. I just wanted to warn you that upgrading your iPod may and will cause it to be unjailbreakable. For your sake (and so I do not get a lot of useless emails), wait until I write to let you know that it is safe to upgrade. Upgrading WILL DELETE all of your jailbroken apps and refresh it to Apple standards. We all have to let the Dev Team create a method for jailbreaking. This will most likely be in the form of an upgraded version of QuickPwn, or cmw might update WinPwn. I dougt that Zibri will update ZiPhone anytime soon.

So, just to reiterate. DO NOT UPGRADE YET.
