pwnage available tomorrow

[kariya9mdoa]

We've told you it was coming. Tomorrow is the day. Watch out for the release of pwnage.

The software is a self contained application (for MacOS 10.4.x and 10.5.x) that allows all current models of the iPhone device to be “Pwned”. This term (in relation to this software) refers to the patching of the stock bootloader so that it will allow the execution of unsigned code and circumvent code-signing checks. “Pwnage” only needs to be performed once to allow the additional features on the iPhone.
The application also processes and modifies existing Apple archives so that unique, custom rolled firmware bundles can be installed onto the “Pwned” iPhone directly from iTunes.
These ”.ipsw” files can be created and patched by the application to allow third-party modifications such as activation, application installation, baseband modification, custom phone graphics etc.
The tool works automatically on box-fresh (OTB) 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 iPhones and requires minimal interaction from the user.

Just a word of warning, the new beta firmware is still buggy in some aspects and for me at least doesn't have the iTunes stores. Now you might think this isn't a big deal, but it seems that the iTunes store on the phone is what controls your ability to listen to music you bought from iTunes. I can't currently listen to any music I bought from iTunes on my phone, it just plays but no sound comes out. Fortunately I un-DRM most of my music when I get it, but a lot of people don't.

Ahead of the game, maybe? I just can't see the Dev Team selling everything they've done.

I suppose it's possible, though.

[acosmichippo]

to be honest, i don't really care one way or the other.

either way it's pretty retarded the way they've handled it.
