New iPhone Firmware 2.0.1 is OUT. I can confirm that this new firmware is not yet 'pwnable' with the latest version of Pwnage 2.0.1.

But many said that if you do have a pwned iPhone, meaning you've pwned your iPhone before with Pwnage 2.0, just restore your iPhone with iTunes and your iPhone will remain unlocked and functional.

I haven't upgrade my phone yet, but I'll do soon. As soon as I've upgraded my iPhone to Firmware 2.0.1, I'll tell you the result here.

Anyway Firmware 2.0.1 can be downloaded here :

The good thing having official unlock iphone 3G, you can upgrade without waiting anything

Will update once I get back home from Singapore. This will be the a perfect example on why official unlocked iPhones are the only way to go.

Currently updating my iphone..will be reporting back soon...

Many said that this new firmware speeds up iPhone...hopefully it's true...2.0 firmware is actually quite slow and buggy

Added on August 5, 2008, 10:43 amSuccesfully update my iPhone to firmware 2.0.1...

If you have already pwned your iPhone before using Pwnage 2.0, just click update in iTunes, and it'll do the rest for you. Just wait about 10 minutes for the process to finish. After that, you'll have the new 2.0.1 Firmware in your iPhone.

I can confirm that this new firmware makes my iPhone run smoother than before. Congrats Apple...

Here are some info on the bug fixes on FW 2.0.1.

-Backups are now much faster

-You can now drag your application icons across many pages in one motion instead of having to stop on every page and drop it and go again.

-Contact scrolling is now more responsive

-Apple might have changed how the iphones reception bars are calibrated while connected to a 3G network to recieve a greater connection than before

-SMS typing is now much faster.

Added on August 5, 2008, 10:54 amHey hust-noon, thank you for the updates. Just wondering, did you install Cydia and did Apple include the cut and paste function and how about MMS?

This post has been edited by davidgary73: Aug 5 2008, 11:06 AM

I do have pwned my iPhone before but I don't install Cydia. So I dont know what will happen for the iPhone with Cydia installed.

will move to it as soon as any1 confirm cydia is workable on this new firmware
any1?

Tried pwning the new firmware 2.0.1 with PwnageTool 2.0. No go..A pop up screen saying wrong firmware bundle selected.

Gotta wait for Dev-Team and Winpwn to come up with a solution.

Hey Gengstapo..i'm on FW 2.0 and thank you for the info's you gave me on FW 2.0. AppStore is really cool and Cydia also ok. Thanks

That was fast! come on pwn'er....

To update or not to update? (From Dev-Team)

We’ve been reading some comments in our previous post “Updates!” and certain people have been a little bit excited and hastily updated using yesterday’s iTunes update without getting the information first ;-)

We don’t see any major problems with the release that Apple made, but we have not released an update for PwnageTool for it as yet and therefore PwnageTool 2.0.1 will not work!

If you absolutely can’t wait then original (2G) iPhone owners can update using iTunes if they really need to, but you’ll lose third-party applications that rely on the Jailbreak, although it is reported that the 2G device remains activated, we have not clarified this.

3G owners can in theory update, but you’ll lose the jailbreak, and you should only carry out this update if you always plan to use the 3G phone with the original carrier, but be warned that there is a baseband update that occurs during this update that could impact the ability to unlock the device (if and when an unlock becomes available), we have not fully tested this baseband update as yet, but we think it is better to be safe than sorry.

Remember, from a jailbreaking point of view the update process is always reversible, but this isn’t the case for the 3G baseband, so your intended long term future use for the phone should help you decide what you do. If you always going to use the 3G phone with the original carrier then baseband updates are fine, if you are not then hold off.

As soon as testing is finished a PwnageTool update will be released that will allow you to safely update either device with all current PwnageTool features still in place and you’ll have the option to disable the baseband update.

The current version of PwnageTool is 2.0.1 it doesn’t support the latest ipsw versions.

Layman’s terms clarification:-

If your 3G iPhone is on a regular contract and you always plan to be with the carrier then you can update but you will lose the jailbreak and access to third party (non AppStore) applications.
If your 3G iPhone is not on a regular contract and you plan to use it on an alternative network to the carrier that supplied it then do not update unless you do it with the impending PwnageTool update.
We will release an update to PwnageTool when the testing has been completed and all applied changes have been checked for safety.

tats a relief man...
hope they can cm up with da unlock tool soon enough...

what the devteam quote actually very correct. even some users claimed the 2.0 very buggy, but it depend on what we gonna do with our phone. we might not running the same apps(user facing bug) were the bug arise. it still ok to sit back & enjoy the 2.0 while waiting the next action to be taken by devteam.

im quite sure they wont let us down..

cheers

Someone actually JB 2.0.1 for iPhone 3G using Xpwn

Source

hehee.. if its really, then kewL la
but as mention, almost none 3rd apps yet for 2.0.1, why bother upgrade when u can do more with current FW?

exactly..... Guess I'll just wait til either Cydia or Installer 4.0 or both are ported to 2.0.1 or else there's no point upgrading.... haha.... btw Gengstapo, thanks for the help bro.... i owe u one.... haha....

guys im think my 1.1.4 has been detected by itunes and i notice some of my programs is chaging pattern such as, my phone usually will send sms to tell me how much i left for my credit after receiving a call.

but now it will not send me sms anymore, it will show a notification screen just like maxis *122# indication.

Another thing is i totally cant sync music and movies anymore...i wonder they require me to upgrade to 2.0 only entitle for the transferable music n movies.

so i would like to know is it the best time to update to V2.0 or should wait a little longer for stable version of V2.0? or i would say 2.0.1?

Thanks

no sweat man, lil' matter only
have a nice day..

woh... tak masuk few days so many updates...

Well string... pls do update us on the changes you discover after you apply F/W 2.0.1.
Thanks...

what is the biggest improvement?

Updated to 2.0.1 - lost all the 3rd party apps (for the time being, till the devs figure this out). However performance is improved a lot! Now I don't have stuck keyboard/random hangs and applications are smoother now!

Okay,updated the Aifontriji to 2.0.1 and everything went as expected. The unlock remains, which means the status of the unlock will remain for the duration of its entire life. Operational-wise, the phone IS DEFINITELY snappier, with dialpads and keyboard springing into action faster and keyboard taps registering instantly compared to 2.0.

All my apps, contacts, iCal, SMSes, everything is intact, I suppose the data is pulled from the backups done before.

But seriously, the best improvement about this update is the speediness of the whole thing. It is now as responsive , if not better, than the Aifonej.

totally agree with stringfellow and KucingKelabu...

my iPhone runs a lot smoother than before...that's a very notable improvement in firmware 2.0.1...

@stringfellow, could you please check your baseband in you Aifontriji...because I've read somewhere, 2.0.1 update for iPhone 3G will update the baseband as well...

I got the 1st gen iPhone and my baseband remains 04.05.04_G...what about yours??

thanks

just another remarks for the 2.0.1 update (my phone is 3G 8gb unlocked). Safari is much much more stable..

my Safari "hanged" at least once a day before the upgrade, and I have to "force reset" the phone. But now it seems like the problems solved.. only encountered once "jump out" to home screen when zoom in zoom out in sin chew daily (for testing purpose..) It is definitely more stable now..

so pwned Iphone 2.0 cant update right eyt right? will relock iphone?

Nope...you can update to 2.0.1...it will remains unlocked...

But only if you do have 1st gen iPhone..as the dev team said, upgrading 3G iPhone will upgrade the baseband as well, and this perhaps makes iPhone 3G unlockable in the future

okie guys let says im having a 1.1.4 version with 8GB hdd

modem: 04.04.05_G can i straight upgrade to 2.01?
what procedure i have to go through?
what pros and cons i will encounter with this V2.01?

thanks

really? because i have a 1st gen Iphone 2.0 pwned. So i just upgrade via itunes?

You can upgrade it via itunes.

If you have pwned your phone before, it will remain unlock on Fw 2.0.1. Sadly, there's no jailbreak yet. Basically FW 2.0.1 are bug fixes for the buggy FW 2.0.

If you have custom your phone with softwares, you may want to wait for awhile before upgrading till jailbreak is available.

ya i did unlock my iPhone with ZiPhone 2.5c from 1.1.2 --> 1.1.4 till now~

so u mean i just need to update my Fw with iTunes to 2.0 that's all and i able to use it? no need to jailbreak?

how do i use 2.01 version? get it from iTunes as well or iClarified?

I would suggest that if you're gonna upgrade to FW 2.0, use the latest winpwn or pwnagetool as it will jailbreak and unlock your phone. Cydia will be installed and only a hand full of apps on FW 2.0 and Installer 4 is in beta stage.

With FW 2.0.1, you're basically stuck with the default settings of the phone..No Cydia or any 3rd party apps yet. Most of us 1st gen users are holding off upgrading to Fw 2.0.1.

Please read this post properly before u do anything..

http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/44768633/t...r-not-to-update

YEP..just plug your iPhone and click update...iTunes will do the rest for you...

But this applies only for an already PWNED iPhone...Those iPhone unlocked with Ziphone, iLiberty cannot just update like that coz you need to neuter your baseband first using Pwnage..

Hi Guys,

I'm gonna Pawn my 2G phone to 2.00 later then to 2.01 but before I do that I have 1 question remaining.
My iTunes is v7.7. Question is, do I need to update it to v7.7.1 to upgrade my iPhone to 2.01?

Thanks a million!

Your current iTunes 7.7 is good. Don't need to upgrade. But a word of caution is that 2.0.1 has no 3rd party softwares yet and you will be restricted to the default iphone. However, you have Appstore.

As my previous post, i would recommend that you pwn to FW 2.0.0 only since Cydia is available. It may be buggy but still good. Also, there's Winterboard to customise your phone which you can download from Cydia and other apps from Bigboss etc..plus AppStore too.

This post has been edited by davidgary73: Aug 7 2008, 12:34 PM

^ Hmm.. ok. Thanks for the reply.
Actually, whether there's Cydia or not does not matter since I hardly use any other apps. The one that I might use sometimes is the dictionary. Other than that, I the app that I use most is Safari.

nyum nyum!

nice, but i lazy to restore my Iphone again...take up too much time. So i hope can update without restoring my Iphone

This post has been edited by Dante18: Aug 7 2008, 05:50 PM

This is bad.. I managed to Pwn it to 2.0..
So I went ahead and do a restore to v2.01
Everything went ok but when the phone reboots, the iPhone appears not be activated.. I mean I can see the "MY MAXIS" logo but I can only make emergency calls.

Anyone knows what is happening?
I'm now doing a restore back to 2.0

Sigh

actually u don't have to restore 2.0.1. U can just update via itunes. I think u need to restore back to 2.0 now.

Oh damn.. I that's what messed it up.. I restored a 2.0.1 instead of an update... I'm doing an Update now. Lets see what happens.

Thanks!!
Update : Yep, that does it. My phone is now at 2.01
Thanks Dante!!! You're my savior.

what to do guys?this it mean i cant use my iphone anymore?

I think u r restoring using iTunes 7.7, right?
Based on experience, 1.1.4 can only be restore by using iTunes 7.6 or older version.

Ya,try restore using older version of iTunes..

Here's the guide on how to downgrade from Fw 2.0 to Fw 1.1.4

http://sleepers.net/news/guides/20-to-114-downgrade/

and..

downgrade to Fw 2.0.0

http://sleepers.net/news/2008/08/05/iphone...01-downgrading/

oh i see.tq.

i give a try.thanx.

Still waiting patiently for the PwnageTool 2.0.2.... few hours = how many hours ler?

my problem is still the same.. still got error when trying to restore using itunes 7.5.

use DFU mode also still same

This post has been edited by TeK_KeN: Aug 8 2008, 12:20 AM

are u sure u are in DFU mode? Because DFU mode iphone screen is black....not cable collect to itunes screen.

oh it is ok already and yes the screen blank.thanx.my iphone already downgrade but i got problem with maxis.iphone not receiving maxis signal.

perhaps you just downgraded your phone, but it's still locked....try using ziphone or iLiberty to unlock and jailbreak it

i already unlock the phone but the carrier is still locked.

i still figuring out what is bootloader.do i need downgrade the bootloader also to unlock carrier?

it state on the top left on my screen "No Secrvice".

This post has been edited by TeK_KeN: Aug 8 2008, 01:17 AM

which method did you use to unlock it??

He just activated but still sim unlock.

i use iliberty.oh i see.my sim still locked.

whenever i try to unlock the sim process failed.something got to do with bootloader?i still not understand this bootloader.

try the xwinpwn, if not mistaken, got ppl claim it can pwn the 2.0.1
since u already there, why dont give a try & share the result here?

just a suggestion..

i downgrade my fw to 1.1.4.

unfortunately my sim only cant be unlocked.i try Ziphone and iliberty,still the same. xwinpwn a little bit confuse to use.I need to cre8 my own restore?

i dunno & i never use xwinpwn
they say, its run thru command line & can pwn the 2.0.1
how far the truth, i cant confirm

Hey,bro....you already up to 2.01?

looks like it will be today as they r also including Installer 4 Beta with Pwnage,

Thought I should add this in.
I upgraded to v2.0.1 yesterday and since then, I've never had a "Call Failed" when dialing out. Yep, I'm a Maxis user.
I think that alone is worthy of an upgrade to 2.0.1.
Bought Crash Bandicoot and downloaded a few free apps. I think my next purchase would be a dictionary.

Just wondering, is there a MMS app in the APP Store?

no winpwn after upgrade?

so no news yet for fully jailbreak 2.02?
im still waiting for a stable version ~

since many ppl suggest to wait for 2.0.1 ~

till now i still cant sync my movies to my iPhone without upgrading to latest version~

Using 2.0.1 now on my iPhone, updated using iTunes... Phone is still unlocked No Jailbreak, but I can live without it.

so lucky.. my iphone instantly locked after update..

nope, i dont have the intention to update yet
didnt see the advantages yet, as far as i know, they said it much faster when typing sms/ safari
well, the lag on 2.0 still i can accept as long all my apps. running fine

i wanna so do the update.Keep refreshing dev team website

for those with 2.0.1, could give some feedback regarding appsupport?
is there any for the unsupported countries?

i dont want to see number when someone calling..

PwnageTool 2.02 is out..

ya it is out ....but i must wait for my dad to be back from work first. I am using windows.

This post has been edited by Dante18: Aug 9 2008, 12:59 PM

To those with Telco unlock and fully activated iPhone 3G, how's the performance of the 2.0.1 firmware update? I'm not having any issues and is wondering whether to take the plunge or not.

Any enhancements observed over the original 2.0 firmware?

This post has been edited by knightltu: Aug 9 2008, 01:53 PM

hi guys, i'm back with firmware 2.0.1 attach on my iphone . upgrade it using the latest pwnage 2.0.2 (not WINPWN. please dun misunderstood) and it included with installer 4 beta. since this is winpwn thread. i'd just like to report the status for those who waiting for 2.0.1 firmware (4 minute of release and im already on 2.0.1 woot)

as all said, the new firmware give boost typing on text massage, safari etc*
app now load faster and smooth. no crash on any pre-install app (sms, camera, youtube, etc*)
all 2.0 app on cydia is available and can be install normally on 2.0.1 including the app support from the other thread. so, no problem there.
installer 4 is still buggy and as u all known, great interface with user friendly. it also improve on repository management. hope they improve more out of the installer it self.

thats all for now. still testing app on cydia and installer.

edit: going to test some *ehem ehem* game and see how it goes

This post has been edited by potion: Aug 9 2008, 04:35 PM

ps: can u also try the "ehem2" apps & give some feedback?

same here...be sure to support us with some clues..

hi there mate. green light for bosstools. already clear up my 500 mb partition using bosstools just now.
the *ehem ehem* game also run smooth on 2.0.1

it is safe to upgrade to 2.0.1 and have 3rd party app install for now though.
windows user need abit more waiting since they in process to convert it to winpwn.
don't forget that winpwn also have a new look

ahh ic ic, kewL then..

ps: 1 last question, does the winterboard also working? i cant live with default iphone interface
