Important Notes:

- Uninstall any previous version o WinPwn first.

- Make sure you have iTunes 7.7 installed (and that you have rebooted since you installed it)

- If you already have legit service contract with AT&T do not activate or install Youtube Fix

- If you select the 3G iPhone you will not get the unlock option since not possible to unlock the 3G phone yet.

Downloads:

WinPwn 2.5.0.2 - updated 8/31/08

Firmwares can be found on the Download page

Bootloader files for 2G iPhone [bl39.bin and bl46.bin] here

.Net 2.0 [if get this error "the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)" you need to install .Net 2.0]

Steps:

1. After you install WinPwn, plug in your iPod/iPhone and launch WinPwn 2.5

2. Click on “Expert”

3. Now select your device

4. Select the firmware

5. This step is for iPhone ONLY not 3G. If you have a legit contract with an official iPhone carrier, like AT&T then select no.

5b. Now click yes on deleting BootNeuter, you can always reinstall it from Cydia later if you want.

5c. If you have a legit contract with an official iPhone carrier, like AT&T then select NO. If you are unlocking your iPhone then select yes.
