So, I have 3.9bootloader on my 1st gen. However, it was downgraded with ziPhone (ew i know.). I know that doign it that way wasnt able to reupgrade it, so I was wondering if this will somehow upgrade it to 4.6 for the stuf it needs, to be able to unlock it along iwht jb/activate.

Please someone confirm if this is do-able or has worked from you. 4.6downloaded bootlaoder with zIphone to 3.9.. then use pwnage 2.0 to upgrade my 1.1.4 phone to 2.0 w/ itunes then pwn it
 
No, you first have to run Pwnage 2.0,
then it asks you for two .bin files, which you can find on page one of this thread*.
Then it writes a custom firmware to the Desktop.
The next step is to go into DFU (explained in Pwnage) and Option click on restore in iTunes to select the custom FW.

*If it asks for the bootloader select "no", then "yes" repeat when it asks you for the next bootloader. And if your iPhone has to be unlocked select "no" when it asks you if your iPhone is legit.

It's good that I have so much time for this because the first Sync is taking ages ;)

Thank you once again. Now it says: Failed to enter DFU Mode...
A short tip would be highly appreciated.
Thx
 
Just by playing around with it since AT&T hasn't shipped my iPhone yet...

Does anyone see any way to pwn the phone without making a custom firmware?

knolly-

You are missing the point and purpose here- you HAVE to modify the ipsw to pwn a phone.... otherwise it is straight Apple software... and Apple does not issue pwnd ipsws.

If you want to pwn, you HAVE to mod the software. No other way.
 
I got it to work, however, I cannot find away enable Edge with T-moble's 5.99 plan...

I guess it's a timing issue. Ignore that iTunes is switching to focus and hold down power and home for ten seconds. After you release power make sure you are still holding the home button for another 10 seconds. You know it works if Pwnage switches back to the foreground.

And if you really want to do this with Pwnage's own timer you can close iTunes and kill "iTunes Helper" (use the app Activity Monitor to do so - if you don't use OSX in English you might have to search for it). That way iTunes doesn't start when you plug in the iPhone. But after Pwnage has build the custom firmware you'll have to start it manually.
