Today, I just test the latest version of pwnage tool to change
iphone boot up and recovery image. This tool was very easy
to use but the tool is currently for mac only.




Apple logo with retro shade and with my 'nick'...

Have Fun

It was easy to enter the recovery mode after Pwnage iPhone.
No need to press and hold home button and power switch,
just press home button and hold it while plugging the usb connector
and it will enter the recovery mode.

If the iPhone was switch off, it will automatic switch on if you place it
on the dock.

I not sure about it. .
Coz i don't notice anything like that after I ziphone it.
Maybe iliberty or other 3rd party app.


BTW, have you receive my PM abt the case??


Thankx

Added on May 8, 2008, 11:21 pmI just notice that all my custom recovery img2 are working. The file size (logo.img2 + recovery.img2) in pwnagetool.app/contents/resources/iPwner folder cannot exceed 105kb (in my experimental right now) to make it work.

Added on May 12, 2008, 7:28 pmThanks for the png files but i cant use it with my Pwnage Tool.
Error accour:

"Sorry, but that doesn't appear to be the proper PNG file"

Now I can only use the custom boot logo + default iphone rec. logo or
default iphone boot logo + custom rec. logo or as long as the logo.img2 + recovery.img2 = <100kb

yup, i did follow the guide. only i can't manage to get the size to <100k in img2 format. I think it only can be done if i can reduce the both png files to 20kb in total.

after you use the ipsw builder you can rename the *.ipsw to *.zip and extract it. Inside the folder you will find the /firmware/all_flash/all_flash.xxxx/applelogo.img2 and recoverymode.img2. That was the boot and recovery logo.


If you can manage to get the size <100kb in total for the both file (applelogo.img2 + recoverymode.img2 = <100kb)
it will work for me for sure.

Thankx

Thankx for the files bro.
I Just test it and it doesn't work coz the files size is more than 100kb in total.
applelogo.img = 88kb
recoverymode.img2=96kb
Total Size is 184kb

Maybe I should try pwnage for win at my opis... hhehehehe

Anyway, Thank you very much... u r very kind and helpful.

Thankx

yup 100kb for both in img2 format. (the default img2 files size is 72kb - applelogo.img2 = 16kb and recoverymode.img2 = 56kb)

and of coz for png file it must be <100kb each to make it work.

I dont use photoshop... Im using pixelmator. Now i'm looking for working png compressor for leopard.

Thankx
