imageDev Team Confirm iTunes 8.2 Breaks Jaibreaking; Updated QuickPwn & PwnageTool after iPhone OS 3.0 is Released

We had reported yesterday that the iPhone Dev team had warned users who want to jailbreak their iPhone to avoid upgrading to iTunes 8.2 as it breaks their QuickPwn and PwnageTool tools and iPhone tunneling suite (ssh over USB) required for jailbreaking.

    Dont update it normally. You will update your basband and lose yellowsn0w. If you dont care about unlocking your iPhone then just update like normal.

    no I couldn't unlock it as it has bootloader 5.09 :(.
    So if i update it normally i will just loose my jailbreak apps but keep my other data?

    If your on Windows, can you update iTunes or does this also affect the Windows version of iTunes?

    Hopefully YellowSn0w will be released soon enough, because im tired of 2.2 already, and 3.0 sounds yummy

    Im definately waiting. Though i am very much looking forward to playing with the new features of 3.0, it's not worth breaking what I have in place and configured now.

    My iphone is jailbroken, running 2.2.1 (5H11) firmware. When released: What would be the correct way to upgrade to 3.0 (without losing installed apps)?

    After running the BETA's 4 and 5 and missing the SBsettings the most..
    I'm now using the 3.0 gold version without any Cydia/Installer apps..

    Still missing the sbsettings to quickly enable/disable bluetooth and would really like some skinning and different icons..
    But the new features like searching in email and the landscaping sms are worth it.

    Hello! I have 2 questions...

    1, If you upgrade to this OS 3.0 then, will all the existing apps remain on your iPhone or will you have to reinstall everything?

    2, Also, have the Dev Team created a Pwnage tool to jailbreak the official OS 3.0 once it is released does anyone know? Will a Pwnage tool be available for download immediately or will the Dev Team have to tweak the tool accordingly and if so how long could it take to be made available?

    I wasn't particularly looking forward to the new software that much really until now. Now it's been mentioned about the probability of jailbreaking the new software. Just counting down the days now. Sad - I know! lol

    im upgrading to 3.0 on Wed. My phone is jailbroken currently, but not unlocked. So I see no real reasoon to wait. The only ressoon I jailbreak is to run PdaNet to tether for free. And I can do with out it for the week or so for the jailbreak to be released by the dev team. I really want stereo Bluetooth. It's worth the trade off.

    Hi,

    I was wondering if I upgrade to 3.0 and it upgrades my baseband to the latest one will it also update the bootloader? At the moment I have the bootloader that lets you downgrade your baseband. I don't want to lose the ability to downgrade my baseband with the current fuzzyband tool.

    Thanks

    I accidentally tried to jailbreak my iPod touch 2g 3.0 on iTunes 8.2. While doing this something went wrong and I had to restore it. I had just found out about the whole iTunes 8.2 problem after I tried to jailbreak it. I was just wondering I've heard that it break the ability to jailbreak it or something.does that mean I can never jailbreak my iPod again?? Please someone...just a yes or no answer thanks.

    As of now, there is no issue jailbreaking an iPhone or iPod Touch running iPhone OS 3.0 (). So you should be fine for now, however you need to be careful before upgrading to the latest firmware (iPhone OS 3.1 which is in beta) and wait for the Dev Team to release their hacking tools to jailbreak the latest iPhone OS.
