WINPWN is still GOOD

Since my last post on xWinPwn, WinPwn has come up with a new version WinPwn 2.003. This is a much better version and resolve a lot of bugs and errors we encountered especially the 16xx error codes.

I will be doing a disservice to the WinPwn Development team if I did not test this new version. Indeed, I have tested pwning two 2G iphones (8gb and 16 gb model) and both went through without a hitch. No errors. So, this version 2.003 is good and ready to go. The Dev team has also announced that there will be a new version 2.5 coming out soon which will made the jailbreaking even more automated and easier. So watch out for this.

For those who have used either xWinPwn or WinPwn to jailbreak and unlock, you will then be asked if you intend to restore from a backup of your stuff from itunes. My suggestion is not to restore, as I have encountered my apps eg. MAIL not working after the restore and you will have to go down to the file level using terminal to fix the ownership issue. Since you have just upgraded, you might as well start everything fresh, just sync with your outlook to get back all your contacts (which is the most important part !!!)

Note : There is a new version of iTunes 7.7.1.11 You may proceed to upgrade to this version. It has no impact to your already jailbroken iPhone.
