Jailbreaking 2.0.2 with Windows

Apple just released the 2.0.2 updated yesterday, and the dev team followed with a release of quick pwn beta software right afterwords. So if you updated by accident you didn't have to wait long this time to have your phone jail broken again. Ok so lets get to the juicy stuff. This update is still in beta but here are the steps that worked for us to get Cydia, Installer & 2.0.2 all at the same time.



updated 11:52AM

Confirmed by multiple sources that phone will stay unlocked and activated and your contacts will still be there after the update. When you update to 2.0.2 your modem firmware also gets upgraded which might prevent future possible unlocks on your phone, so consider that before you start this process. But if you don't plan on unlocking and are happy with your carrier then lets go.

We tested on a contract carrier with a 3G phone, however many sources now confirm that it also works on the 2G headset and keeps it unlocked.

First lets grab the files you need to get this process complete.

1. Grabt the Quick PWN beta from here.

2. Then grab the 2.0.1 firmware. 3G Firmware 2G Firmware (Thanks
Smartmouf)

Before we goto the jailbreak process, hookup your phone to iTunes and update to 2.0.2

Ok now to the jailbreak process.

Step 1.

Lets get the files setup. Extract the downloaded QuickPwn.zip file to a folder, we're going to use c:\unlock This will create another folder called quickpwn in the c:\unlock folder. Double click the quickpwn folder you should see such files as in the screen shot below.


Step 2.

Take the downloaded ipsw file and dump it to your folder that you extracted the files to, our case is c:\unlock\quickpwn\


Step 3.

Kill the following processes by clicking ctrl + alt + del and going into the task manager and selecting these three processes and clicking end now.

AppleMobileDeviceService
iPodService
itunesHelper


Step 4.

Hookup your phone while its on to your pc and start iPhone 3G.bat for 3G headset, or 2G for 2G headset. You should see something like you see below.


Step 5.

When it prompts you to turn of your phone, do so. Hold the power button uptop till you see the slide to power off pops up then slide to power off. Keep phone plugged in.

Step 6.

Put your phone into DFU Mode. Follow the given instruction onscreen, if you have problems here is a great Video Here showing you how to accomplish that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0oS79cErHM&feature=related

When your phone is in DFU mode the software takes over and starts jailbreaking the phone, When it says Press any key to continue you are done, enjoy your new 2.0.2 jailbroken Iphone 2G/3G phone.

If you had any problems with DFU mode you might have to start the process again from step 1.

Nice technical note on this but how is one supposed to acquire a 3G Iphone to JailBreak without having to sign a contract from ATT? 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

you can get them on ebay, you can get them in other countries other then the us. 
 
     
     
   Blogger kiran - 

How is this 2.0.2 jailbreak! This 2.0.1 Jailbreak and it was out for a long time now! 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

updated to 2.0.2 then run this hack and 2.0.2 will stay on your phone you wont go back to 2.0.1 
 
     
     
   Blogger Freddy Reyes - 

What about unlock? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Boz - 

Yes : What about unlock?
IF the phone is already unlocked, is it ok ? 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

i wish i could tell you but both phones we tried it on were locked, will be testing another phone later tonight will keep everyone updated or if anyone else has tried it on a locked phone please post info 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

i have some updates from users testing.

"I updated my first gen. iPhone to 2.0.2 through iTunes, - I was a jailbroken/unlocked PWN'd 2.0 that had updated>2.0.1 via iTunes prior to this.
Again, as with my first update, activation and unlock remain intact. The lack of Cydia doesn't bother me as we've now got Appstore."

source 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

confirmed now by at least 5 sources that the phone will remain unlocked and activated. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

all contacts and settings stay in tact 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

Forgive the question as I am new...
Does the new version lack cydia ?
Does appstore do the same thing with free apps ? 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

yes app store can be hacked just like before cydia comes preloaded 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

HEY... I'm in Toronto Canada... just used your guide to jailbreak my Iphone 3g firmware 2.0.2.... worked perfect... this was the first time i jailbroke my phone i dont know if that makes a difference but you canmconfirm a 6th phone working... thnx guys 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

thanks for the feedback.... we have about 25 confirmed now 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

Don't do this on a 3G!! This will overwrite your phone's firmware! 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

why would it overwrite your firmware, it only replaces some of the files not the whole firmware ... do an update to 2.0.2 not a restore and it will retain you data, we have 25 confirmed users 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

hi. stupid question, but where do i find the task manager in windows xp uk version. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

no stupid questions only stupid answsers... pres these three keys at the same time CTRL ALT DEL 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Zoran - 

Another maybe silly question, if I do a backup, then update to 2.0.2 then follow the instructions to jailbreak above and then restore my backup will it keep(restore) my non-appstore (Cydia installed)apps? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Humhead74 - 

I Was given an iPhone 16gig 1st gen by a friend who just upgraded to a 3G and I ran the 2G.bat. It unlocked the apps but I have no service? Is this correct? thought it was supposed to SIM unlock also? Sorry if I was presumptious. I'm using T-mobile till my contract is up in Feb, then switching, don't want to pay the cancelation fees on 3 phones. Thanks for any help. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

zoran i cannot cofirm but it does store your settings, i believe when u you an update it to 2.0.2 it will removed cydia and its apps

hummerhead.
was the phone unlocked before ? what firmware were u running before ? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Lakoni - 

Does it matter if u have itunes 7.7.1? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Zoran - 

Thanks Mario

well I'm just doing a backup then I'll update jeailbreak and restore.

Will let everyone kknow how it goes in about an hour or so.. 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Humhead74 - 

It was not previously unlocked...jailbroke... I just downloaded the laest update today 2.0.2 and I have the latest iTunes, 7.7.1.11. before I started any jailbreaking processes. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

i am using 7.7.1 during the tutorial...

i cant confirm on 2g headset as i dont have one on hand.. but i think u need to unlock it with firmware 1.X and then update and it will keep the unlock.. this is what ive seen on the forums 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

if installer or cydia doed not come up did i do something wrong? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

would it mess up your iphone if you use a custom 2.0.1 restore file? 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

cydia should be there but not installer so yea something wrong, also dunno about the custom firmware 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

guys new quickpwn 1.2 is our check it out in our news section it will do this process even easier 
 
     
     
   Anonymous humhead74 - 

from what I've been reading here, I haven't seen anything to lead me to believe that I have to downgrade to unlock. Everything here says 2G phones will unlock and jailbreak. Not in my case. Jailbroke fine once I found the 1,1.0.2 firmware file and used the 2G.bat. It would just crash using the 3G.bat file and 1,2.0.2 firmware. So can someone point me in the right direction to unlock my 2.0.2 jailbroken 1st gen 16gig phone. Thanks it's greatly appreciated, you guys do good work. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

humhead74 very simple process
goto cydia
download bootneuter
install and your done 
 
     
     
   Anonymous humhead74 - 

thank you Mario, I will try it later and post result. 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

I currently have a 2g 16gig Iphone. During the stage where you have to select either the 3g, 2g, or touch "MS-DOS Batch file", when I select the 2g, it doesn't recognize the Iphone1,2_2.0.1_5B108 restore file. So I can't proceed to the jailbreak process. Is there a separate file for the 2g models, because apparently this process only works for the 3g version. 
 
     
     
   Anonymous humhead74 - 

ok so I installed bootnueter and I've got the phone working on Tmobile. But I have no data connection? Did I do something wrong. I had to reinstall all my appstore apps too. Wouldn't open any. They seem to work fine now after re-downloading. Have to do everything on WiFi right now. I'll keep searching for a fix. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

for a 2g you have to download the right file, the one in the guide is for a 3g..

Iphone1,2_2.0.1_5B108 3g
Iphone1,1_2.0.1_5B108 2g

to activate data or switch APN you can use http://www.unlockit.co.nz/ 
 
     
     
   Anonymous humhead74 - 

so I trice the unlockit.co.ms with no luck. Tried both the any sim and custom setting using wap.voicestream.com no user or password. Any other suggestions? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous humhead74 - 

sorry still getting used to this keyboard. 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

try each of these with http://www.unlockit.co.nz

wap.voicestream.com
internet2.voicestream.com
internet3.voicestream.com
wap.voicestream.com
hiptop.t-mobile.com 
 
     
     
   Anonymous humhead74 - 

no luck with any of them. So I keep reading that you only need Tzones. I have a full data plan and my tzones work fine. Seem like those are all old post. I'll keep searching. Would have thought the wap would have worked. If I can't find something I might try reinstalling and flashing. 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Anonymous - 

i just tried to jailbreak using this method, however after it said "press any key to continue" it just closed the command prompt window and its still not done yet. All it is now is my iphone being stuck at the screen with the pineapple and a loading icon. any help? 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Humhead74 - 

OK, not sure exacty what I did, but I got the DATA to work. I actually started undoing settings, none of the wap settings worked. I uninstalled all the unlockit profiles. I think the only thing I left in was the Tzones hack from Cyndia. I now have a fully operational 16gig 2G iPhone. I did have to re-install anything I downloaded from the app store because all those apps started locking up and instantly closing. But so far everything works excellent. Thanks for all the help. 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Mario Jose Jo (chino) -

i cant understand very well english and i cant write it that goo either..... 
 
     
     
   Blogger Mario Dabek - 

sure but use our latest guide.. no harm in jailbreaking if you dont want the phone unlocked, meaning if you are staying with your provider... also you can always go back to factory firmware from itunes, there is no risk of ever bricking your phone unless you throw it against a brick wall :P 
 
     
     
   Anonymous Mario Jose Jo (chino) -

Who are you?
Not all of the packages avaible via Cydia are designed to be used by all users. please categorize yourself so that Cydia can apply helpful filters.
This choice can be changed from "settings" under the "Manage" tab.

->User (Graphical Only)
->Hacker (+ Command Line)

   Anonymous Acadian - 

Well you can rack up another satisfied CONFIRM for a 3G running 2.0.2 (still had to download the version file and put into the folder).

The whole QuickPwn install went without a hitch and was seemless (no pun intended...). Very fast and smooth.

With Cydia installed, I now have my free Apps, wallpapers (some might know me as "Acadian" on various cellphone sites including modmyifone), ringers and all the themes I want to apply.

Excellent work by the Dev team - another Jailbreaker success!
