Pwnagetool

Quickpwn: Pwn the iPhone and allow you to do so without a restore. Need to update the firmware (update baseband) of the iPhone v iTunes before using Quickpwn to jailbreaking or unlock.

thanks david
so pawnage tool is more advisable to pakai?

I prefer Pwnagetool to Quickpwn. Pwn lot's of 2G/3G iPhone with Pwnagetool with ease.

will try, cos quickpawn also dem easy as well

Indeed. Both does the job well. Have fun mate.

Cheers

wish me luck

If not mistake, pwnage give you an option to place a new boot up icon as compared to the "pineapple" icon...

Customization of the boot logo was available on the first version of Pwnagetool 1.1 to 2.2.5 and with LogoMe available, more choices of boot logos to play with.

You can bypass the pineapple logo by unchecking it which by default set to Apple boot logo when your phone boots.

Cheers

Actually we can also change the boot logo in Quickpwn but it requires some 'extra' steps to be taken.

Personally I like Quickpwn more than Pwnagetool but it's according to one's preferences.

finally considering JB just so I can change "My Maxis" carrier name but am a little confused.

-> What happens to my apps from iTunes Appstore and Cydia after a restore or a firmware upgrade?
-> You apps will be wiped out after every restore and firmware upgrade. Just resync back your iTunes apps to your phone and redownload Cydia apps.

so this means that once I JB even legal apps downloaded from App Store will get wiped out after a firmware upgrade? firmware upgrades on non-JB phones don't suffer this, right?

If restore or upgrade, the apps from AppStore will always be there when you sync it back. Only 3rd party apps will be deleted and need to re-install everytime you upgrade or restore.

In your case, you just need to use Quickpwn to jailbreak. Jailbreaking using quickpwn will not delete your apps from AppStore. Let say after this Apple come out with firmware 2.3 (example) and you already jailbreak and install some 3rd party apps from Cydia, once you upgrade or restore to that firmware, you'll lose the 3rd party apps from Cydia but the apps from AppStore can always be sync back from itunes. Means you have to reinstall every 3rd party apps again after a restore or upgrade and jailbreak the phone.

Hope you get this.

I've just upgraded to FW2.2.1 on my Iphone 2G.

Just update the FW using Itunes.

But before you update download aptbackup from cydia and backup your applications.

After updating your firmware. Run quickpawn to jailbreak then go cydia and download back aptbackup again and press restore. It will automatically download and install back all the applications you previously had from cydia.

Just that simple.

thanks.

i get the part that i can easily restore my apps from itunes. but stuff like high score, etc, will be lost, right?

errr... stuck at apple logo there after jailbreaking... aisk.... what to do now? what it means???

if it restarts back on and stays at the apple logo after a few times, it means that your unit is in a loop

restore again

If you sync back the apps from iTunes, high scores, settings etc wont be lost.

AISK.. never ever gonna attempt to jailbreak my phone again.. it scared the hell out of me man... the restoring process i gonna take a looooooooooong time and rearranging all my 8 pages of apps in order again.. ... btw miss ur TT session wanted to come but still in hometown... anyway to arrange them in a faster way without jailbreaking.. aisk..
