QuickPwn v2.1 for iPhone Firmware 2.1 for Windows Users Released
The iPhone Dev Team had released the Pwnage Tool v2.1 and QuickPwn v1.1 to jailbreak and unlock the 1st Gen iPhone and jailbreak iPhone 3G running iPhone firmware 2.1 almost immediately after it was released by Apple last week. However, the tools were only for Mac users. They have now...

you don't have to restore your phone if you already have 2.1 on your iPhone just use lunch quickpwn and it will jailbreak your phone that's it so you skipp the other steps. I done it and It works

I previously had used QuickPwn (on windows) on my 1st Gen iPhone with 2.0 software (unlocked and jailbroken).
For the update to 2.1 software, simply let iTunes 8.0 update the phone to 2.1. Afterwords, my phone was still unlocked, but no Cydia or Installer. Then I ran QuickPwn 2.1 to jailbreak, and viola, done.
Hope this helps.

slightly off topic but has anyone else only just noticed that you can save images in Safari.... Or has that been there for ages?

Works Perfectly =]

I have successfully upgrade to 2.1 and hoping everything should be okay. But I notice that backing up my iphone with iTunes still takes forever...any thoughts on this guys

I updated my 2G with version 2.1 in itunes 8. I am having something crazy happen when I used the quickpwn for unlocking and jailbreaking cydia and installer. When I use the original sim that came with the iphone, I run the software and check unlock, cydia, and installer. I follow the prompts until it is successfully completed. Now when I put in my old ATT SIM Card (even before the cingular days), then it goes into the emergency screen, BUT my phone is unlocked and I can make calls using the emergency call. I see the carrier and signal strength, but I can't go into the main springboard screen with the contacts, sms, camera, mail, etc. When I lock the phone from the top, it shows the screen of the USB wire going to "itunes" written in text under a CD and Music symbol. However, when I put in the new ATT SIM card, I see the cydia and installer, but I can't dial because the SIM card doesn't have a phone line with it. I typed this problem up in google and I found a few people who had the same issue, but nobody addressed it. Kind of crazy. I would appreciate anyone that can help me with this.

Hey Omar why dont you try a custom firmware made by pwnage tool in Mac. Just grab that firmware and simply restore with itunes 8 hope that will work.

Hi, my iphone is running 1.1.1 OS version, can I directly upgrade to 2.1 w/o going to 1.4 first? If the upgrade fails, how do i restore back to original settings?
Thanks:)

Hi Hassan

hi, i did this and it works, so great! thnks

I'm getting Application Error when I double click on QuickPwn.exe. The message reads - The application failed to initialize properly (c0000135). I thought its some Win XP problem and tried restarting my machine. But still the issue persists. Any light on this would be helpful for me to unlock my 2G iphone.

Hi observer365,
I am glad that your problem is solved..
Cheers...

Worked flawlessly for me (iPhone 2G: jailbreak + unlock).
-
Worked great! so now im able to connect my laptop to the net via proxy again :D hehe

I did the jailbreak with no problems. The problem is afterwards. How come all the apps I DL'ed from the App Store quit after 2secs whenever I start them, is there something to fix that? I did "Restore from backup..." (right-click in iTunes) and it did not fix the problem, help much appreciated!
-
Blindly after successful tries with QuickPwn v2.1, I kept clicking restore in iTunes 8 which, of course, kills the unlock and jailbreak on my 2G. Finally I realized after jailbreaking, I had to check setup as a new iPhone, then later, right click the iPhone icon in iTunes 8 to get a "restore from backup" which worked just fine. Then had to setup and do a sync to get all working. Life is good. Just took me a while to get it right.
-
I don't understand, how do you setup as a new iPhone? I have a 3G, don't think it changes the procedure much, and I don't care about unlocking.
-
Will quickpwn remove all of my apps i have installed from cydia and installer?
-
Quit saying "please DO.." and "DO tell us...". That "do" is frickin annoying and makes you look like an uneducated fool. Just had to point that out after puttin up with it for so long on your site.

Anyone else having trouble with the previously cracked ipa apps not working with itunes 8.0. I heard there is a workaround but haven't seen anything yet.

Just did this to a jailbroken First Gen iphone running 114
Worked great
Maybe someone should update the imstructions,
Boot loaders were not included in quickpwn v2.1 and I had to find them.Dave
-
did it in less than 15 min... my iphone first gen is jailbroken and unlocked.....the only thing is that unlocked but i can't make the springboard works....i can make calls using the emergency keyboard ....

Anyone knows if it works with Parallels on a MacBook Pro?

hi sorry i gotta ask a silly question but when i jailbreak my 3G what features does that give me or what things does it allow me to do? thank
-
Where do i find the booloaders? complete noob here!
-
Step 1 should be download bootloaders V3.9 and V4.6
Huge oversight on the instructions.
