Unlock iPhone 4 On iOS 4 3 5 Using Pwnage Tool

iOS 4.3.5 was recently released by Apple to fix a security issue with certificate validation.Thankfully Redmondpie Team has cooked a custom PwnageTool bundle that will allow you to jailbreak iOS 4.3.5 and Preserve Baseband unlock.


Heres what you will need:

Warning:
If your baseband is 4.10.1 Do not update to iOS 4.3.5 as there is no unlock for it now.
Modify PwnageTool For Custom Bundle
Step 1: extract the custom bundle we mentioned above and drag it to your desktop.

Step 2: drag the PwnageTool app to the /Applications folder but do not launch it yet. Instead, right-click it and select Show Package Contents, in order to insert the bundle. For reference, check out the screenshot below.
Step 3: you should now see a Finder window identical to the one below. Navigate over to Contents/Resources/FirmwareBundles/ and place the .bundle file you had selected earlier to this location, then close the window.
Creating Custom 4.3.5 Firmware

Step 4: start up PwnageTool in Expert mode, as shown on the screenshot below. Select the device you’re using, then click on the blue arrow on the bottom-right corner of the window to proceed.
Step 5: when requested, point PwnageTool to the iOS 4.3.5 IPSW file you downloaded earlier, as shown in the screenshot below.
Step 6: on the next screen, you’ll be given the option to further customize the software you’re about to build. Feel free to toy around with these settings, but only if you know what you’re doing. If you’re not sure what to do, just click on "Build" as shown below. PwnageTool will then build a jailbroken firmware, a process that could take a few minutes, so kick back and have a soda.
Step 7: when instructed, you need to put your phone into DFU mode. Just do as follows:

Hold down both the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds.
Release the Power button but keep holding the Home button for 10 more seconds.
If your screen is black, you’re in DFU mode. If an iTunes logo is displayed, you’re in Restore Mode: just try the steps above a few more times, sometimes it doesn’t go well on the first try. Nonetheless, a notification will be displayed if you’ve managed to enter this mode correctly.
Restoring Custom 4.3.5 Firmware On iPhone

Step 8
: once this process is done, you’re free to exit out of PwnageTool. Now launch iTunes and restore to the firmware file you’ve just created: select your device from the iTunes sidebar, and click Restore while holding down the Alt key on your keyboard. Select the firmware file you’ve just saved (make sure it’s the one created by PwnageTool, not the default firmware) and click Open. iTunes should now begin loading the jailbroken firmware to your device, avoid interacting it at this point. If everything goes as expecting, your device should be jailbroken at this point.
Booting iPhone In Tethered Mode

Since this is a tethered jailbreak, whenever you boot up your device you’ll have to plug it into your computer and run a small utility known as tetheredboot. You’ll need to follow the following Step 11 and Step 12 whenever you start up your device!

Step 9: place tetheredboot (download link at the beginning of the article) in an accessible directory.

Step 10: change the extension of the custom IPSW file you’ve just created to .zip by renaming the file, then extract it much like a real ZIP file. Navigate to /Firmware/dfu/ and copy two files (kernelcache.release.n90 and iBSS.n90ap.RELEASE.dfu) from that directory to the folder you’ve pasted tetheredboot utility into, as shown below.
Step 11: with your device plugged in but turned off, bring up the Mac OS X Terminal (by heading to Applications/Utilities/Terminal), type in the following commend, press enter and insert your password when requested:

sudo -s

Then type in the following:

/Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/tetheredboot
/Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/iBSS.n90ap.RELEASE.dfu
/Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/kernelcache.release.n90

if the commands above don’t work, try the following:

/Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/tetheredboot –i
/Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/iBSS.n90ap.RELEASE.dfu -k
/Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/kernelcache.release.n90

Important: Make sure you replace /Users/TaimurAsad/Desktop/tetheredboot/ with the directory where you have placed the tetheredboot utility.
If you’re not comfortable typing in commands, you can simply drag the 3 files in your tetheredboot folder right into the terminal window after the original sudo -s command.

Step 12: after some code runs through the terminal, you’ll be asked to set your phone into DFU mode. Do so, as shown below:

Hold down both the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds.
Release the Power button but keep holding the Home button for 10 more seconds.
If your screen is black, you’re in DFU mode. If an iTunes logo is displayed, you’re in Restore Mode: just try the steps above a few more times, sometimes it doesn’t go well on the first try.

If you wait a few seconds, you should see “Exiting libpois0n” on the terminal. Your device is now in a jailbroken state until next time you power off.

iOS 5 0 1 Untethered Jailbreak Confirmed Working On iPhone 4




Good news, jailbreakers! Pod2g today confirmed that his iOS 5 untethered jailbreak demoed few days ago on iPod touch 4G is working on iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0.1. The news comes from pod2g’s Twitter timeline who invites users to update to iOS 5.0.1 in case they want to.

Got an untethered iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0.1. Feel free to update.
Pod2g has previously warned users from upgrading to iOS 5.0.1 and give him time so he can use the discovered security flaw found in iOS 5.

Since his jailbreak is currently working on iPhone 4 iOS 5.0.1, you can feel free to upgrade.
Next step now is to test the untethered jailbreak on the A5 devices as the iPhone 4S and iPad 2. If the jailbreak is a new exploit, then it will most probably work on the devices. If it’s a big that changes tethered to untethered based on limera1n’s exploit, then it won’t work.

There’s currently no release time for this jailbreak. We’ll be back with more news once we get it. Stay tuned!

Here’s how you can try out Windows Phone on your iPhone


Click here to enlargeClick here to enlarge
Curious to see how Windows Phone feels, but don’t have a device around to do so? Us neither. But Microsoft has just released a new HTML 5 website that allows iPhone and Android users to get a taste of the Windows Phone 7 (Mango 7.5) operating system. The trial requires no downloads or registration, and you can try it out by just going to the webpageWindows Phone Demo on your mobile device.

While it doesn’t use any of the data on your phone like your contacts, the demo does give you a pretty comprehensive look at all of Windows Phone’s features. Microsoft uses a blue dot to guide you around the operating system, and obviously some features like voice recognition just don’t work in the browser. Drat, that’s something we really wanted to try.

Enable Panorama Mode On A Non Jailbroken iPhone Including 4S Running iOS 5


The iOS community has been buzzing since yesterday, about the hidden panorama setting in iOS5 discovered by conradev. Today chpwn released a Cydia package that will do all the dirty work for you and enables this feature, but unfortunately you need a tethered or semitethered jailbreak for that. If you want the panorama feature but don’t want all the headaches of a tethered jailbreak ( or no jailbreak in case of the iPhone 4S ), here’s how to do it:


How to:
1. Download iBackupBot from the official website. ( Mac and Windows )
2. Plugin your iPhone and back it up via iTunes
3. Open iBackupBot and find the backup that you just made via iTunes. Select and load it.
4. Find Library/Preferences/com.apple.mobileslideshow.plist


5. Now you need to add a key to this .plist file. Open the file ( on mac, it just works *wink, wink* ) and near the bottom, add a key ( enableFirebreak ) and a string ( YES )


6. Save your modifications, and right from iBackupBot restore your iPhone with the modified iTunes backup


7. That’s it. Open your camera app, tap on options and there it is.

When the iOS4.2.1 jailbreak was released, the concept of a tethered jailbreak to a lot of people was also released. We here at iJailbreak and I am sure a lot of our readers, have experienced  tethered jailbreaks in the past, but I know to a lot of our readers the idea of a tethered jailbreak is a completely new concept. Not having the ability to reboot your iDevice is not a very nice limitation, considering a lot of Cydia tweaks require you to reboot your iDevice. Over the past month the tethered jailbreak has made a lot of people unhappy, and while unfortunately we can not do anything about this, we can point you to some tools to make your tethered jailbreak more bearable…


You see iBooty for example, is a tool being developed by the iH8Sn0w Dev-Team to make rebooting your tethered iDevice a lot easier. With iBooty on your computer, you simply click the iBooty.exe file and you will be presented with an easy to use GUI, where you can easily reboot your tethered iDevice into a jailbroken state. All you will need to do to get iBooty working, is to transfer a file to your iDevice through SHSH, AFC2 or iFile. Once you have done this, rebooting your iDevice into a jailbroken state will be a lot easier, than using alternative methods such as modified pwnage tool, tethered Boot tool and terminal/cmd.

SemiTether Jailbreak Confirmed As Working On iOS 5 0 1

Despite the fact that Apple only seeded iOS 5.0.1 to developers a matter of hours ago, the trusty Redsn0w jailbreak tool allows those testing the updated firmware to jailbreak their devices, albeit tethered.
iOS 5.0.1 WM
Just last week, a Cydia package was released on BigBoss repository providing something of a "halfway house" solution between the tethered and untethered jailbreak. Known as SemiTether, it can be located and installed straight from the BigBoss repo. Once installed, you no longer have to connect your device to a computer to boot tethered, the tweak boots it. Unfortunately, though, despite a decent update and improvements, it doesn’t quite encompass the joy of untethered. After the makeshift boot of SemiTether, many key functions of the device cease to work, and you have to connect to a PC or Mac in order to restore some normality. Nonetheless, it is a step up from tethered, which, once switched off or rebooted, is essentially useless unless a computer (with Redsn0w or Sn0wbreeze installed) in close proximity.
After testing it out ourselves, we are pleased to confirm that the patch is working on the updated (currently developer only) release of iOS 5.0.1.

It’s free, and available over at the BigBoss repository: http://thebigboss.org/semitether.

SemiTether
You can follow our guide on how to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 using Redsn0w. After that, you should follow our guide on how to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 semi-tethered on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch to take advantage of a “semi-untethered” jailbreak.

You may remember p0sixninja speaking of the five userland exploits discovered by the Chronic Dev-Team over at MyGreatFest, which could potentially lead to the elusive untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. The iPhone

Dev-Team has teased the notion further more recently, claiming to be making good progress on a jailbreak for iOS 5 which supports the iPad 2, as well as the iPhone 4S.

Waiting for an untethered jailbreak can seem quite daunting, but it is important to remember that the developers are under no obligation, and do work hard. So no matter how eager we are, we’re going to have to wait for a little while, and hope – as the saying goes – that good things will come to us.
