So if I can't use Pwnage Tool because I'm on a PPC Mac, I can't do this, right?

Down loaded version3 via the pirate bay torrent
Also on a mac put the new ipsw in user-library-itunes-iphone softwareupdates if you like
Nope, because you can't make a custom ipsw.
I'm on a PPC too, ANNOYING. Anyone feel like uploading a 2G custom ipsw? I just need something with an unlock (my eejit boyfriend relocked his phone
)
Ok this might be a dumb question but I need to ask it anyway.
I'm about to do this. Will I loose the official apps I've installed? I know I can back them up and sync them. But my real question is will I loose my place in the games I'm playing???
I know it's dumb but that is a serious question. Thanks in advance.

mmm...
something is funky about this pwnagetool...i just did my second phone following the exact same instructions, and when everything was finished, my antenna had dissapeared from my settings and my phone was disabled...
anyone else have this??
i had to clean re-install from scratch to get the antenna back working...

Why can't you just dl one of these IPSW's which are posted, put the phone in DFU mode, option click restore and let iTunes do it for you?
So - still no unlock for 3g on 3.0. "Soon" could be a week from now or worse. I want to get a 3G S and sell my 3G unlocked. Maybe it's best for me to not upgrade to 3.0 then.
Not sure what to do. They say it'll be released 'soon' on Cydia/Icy - but IDk what 'soon' means.

I had my doubts honestly but I continued with your assurance alone. Worked like a charm.
Thanks.
You have to update the baseband, 3.0 only works with it's own baseband, none lower.

I'm very confused. I used Pwnage in the past with zero problems. So the new 3.0 version requires an Intel Mac in order to work?
So all intel users have to do is wait for a "custom ipsw" then we can just put our phone in DFU and proceed like we normally would after we built our own?
Thats not so bad but I prefer no custom boot logos, etc and we have depend on someone else to upload a custom without that.
I'm on an Pwnage unlocked iPhone 2G 2.2... I'm about to upgrade to 2.2.1 cause someone told me if I do that my phone can never be locked again (who knows if its true) and then just wait til someone can tell me whats going on.
Ok so I just unlocked my iPhone 3G 3.0 using the PwnageTool. This just unlocks the phone correct, or does it Jailbreak it as well.
IDK what my problem is. I've jailbroken zillions of times.
I ran Pwnage, thought it worked fine. Went to itunes and restored from my backup to get my stuff on there (i.e.; didn't select set up as new phone).
Cydia isn't there.
I'm running Pwnage again. :|

i need major help, i will even pay someone at this moment.
Heres where im having problems.
iPhone 1st gen, was running 2.2.1 JB. I upgraded to official 3.0 FW.
I open quickpwn tool and it doesnt recognize the iPhone, as soon as I connect it opens iTunes and quickpwn doesnt work/doesnt recognize it. Even trying to restore to 2.2.1 doesnt seem to work. I keep getting 1600's error from iTunes. Please help, thanks in advance.

i cant seem to a find the PM but here my msn ernieelchico@hotmail.com, I'm going to be up all night trying to resolve this, maybe were missing a step. IM me, or anyone for that matter, im working here on one macbook and a macbook pro.
Sorry if a dumb question, i am upgrading my 1st gen and it is asking for the bootloaders in simple mode... i guess that is right yea? like when i upgraded to 2.1 ?
Quickpwn doesn't work with 3.0. You need the new redsnow which you can download from iphone dev blog.
If you get the 1600 error, its because you are not in DFU mode. Put the device into DFU mode and then use option + restore to select the original firmware or custom firmware (which you created with the new pwnage 3.0 tool).
Btw, i hope you are running iTunes 8.2 as its a must for 3.0.
