iPhone Firmware 3.0 Beta 2 Jailbroken: Dev Team Warn iPhone 3G Users to Avoid Unofficial QuickPwn
Apple seeded iPhone developers with the second beta version of iPhone firmware 3.0 couple of days back and just like last time have already jailbroken it. Folks over at QuickPwn have also released an unofficial version of QuickPwn 3.0 Beta 2 for Windows users to jailbreak the latest beta version...

have the fixed the DFU problem? do you still need to connect to a usb hub to jailbreak 3G?
-
i have a iphone 2g with 2.2 firmware it is unlocked and jailbroken. It wasnt unlocked with yellowsnow. Would it be safe to jailbreak to firmware 3.0 beta 2? And should i use quickpwn? Please help?!
-
We would recommend you to avoid upgrading to the beta versions of iPhone firmware 3.0.
-
The DFU problem was only for Mac users and the unofficial QuickPwn is currently only available for Windows users.
There is no information regarding the DFU problem for Mac users.
-
its not really a jailbreak...it only installs Icy. you will have to do all the jailbreaking yourself using OpenSSH...but its an improvemnt
-
Agreed! Please do NOT use ANYTHING on your iPhone 3.0 beta to Jailbreak/unlock right now, because Apple will use information from the beta to fix holes and possibly prevent people from unlocking/jailbreaking in the future!
Shouldn't you post a blog urging people to NOT do this?
-
whats the point of of jail breaking firmware 3.0. have developers even made there software compatible with it yet?
-
yea i wont be upgrading or using this pwnage tool i will wait for the blessing of the dev team, when its safe and ready they will tell us. so dont go for 3.0 right now anyone i heard on another site that a lot of the apps and even winterboard itself doesnt work on pwnage 3.0 beta
-
This all worked for me with beta 2 and quickpwn. i started loading all my favorite apps on and things were working until I got to winterboard, and specifically the deep theme. I also installed cydia (through icy) at around the same time. Then my phone was stuck on the boot screen. So I am restoring and trying again.
Tread lightly all and good luck.

You DON'T Need a Developer Account to activate the Beta Firmwarez!

update to my comment: I think winterboard was not the problem; i tried installing mobileinstallation framework and that's what bricked me.

Question: What is Icy?
-
It kinda sounds like there's no chance for those of us that were stupid enough to upgrade to 2.2.1 (including baseband) to ever get an unlock...
-
Does the 3.0 beta activation include sim unlock?????
-
works... been 4 days and stable on my 2G
-
Icy is an APT client much like Installer or Cydia and claims to be dramatically faster than Cydia but I've heard of users having problems using and uninstalling Icy so use it at your own risk!
Icy is a product of RipDev and can be found in Installer.
-
I wouldn't worry about it, it will just take a little while to crack the current baseband.
-
The 3.0 firmware won't unlock your phone. Not even the beta.

hi,
I have jailbreak my iphone 3g 2.2, but i can't install application from itune. I don't know why. I did it before and installed a lot of application. I just restore today with the custome firmware, and i jailbreak again. But i can't install apps. Does anyone know how? It keeps saying "can't verified..."
Thank you -
So if i upgrade to 2nd beta 3.0 firmware after activation...
i will be able to use any sim rite? -
And yea if not then wats the purpose of paying 4 euro????
wel activation simply means jailbreak, rite???
then wat did i pay 4 euro for???? -
the activation is for apple to allow you to actually use the Beta software, as if you dont, it cannot activate, and you cant downgrade because the software upgrades the baseband, so your nackered really.
-
plug it up to the itunes and verify it
