Some people are still struggling with the old schools. Nevertheless like two-face here, we are unbiased. So we decided to give steps on how to unlock and jailbreak your iPhone 2G with firmware 2.0 with Windows. You must have iTunes 7.7 and .Net framework for the following procedure to work. Also, this method may not work good on Windows Vista. On Windows XP, it works flawlessly. Here is a list of things that you must also have in mind:
- You MUST do a full uninstall of winpwn before installing the new version
- Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes ( Currently 7.7)
- WinPwn uses 300MB of ram at peak due to the ipsw being extracted in memory
- You must first click browse and load an IPSW to use WinPwn (i thought this was clear)
- For 2.0 only the *5A347_Restore.ipsw files are valid. The 345 image will not work
- If you see Failed to load image catalog/payload catalog, this is fine and won’t cause problems
- If you already have service with AT&T do not activate or install Youtube Fix
These are instructions on how to unlock and jailbreak your 2.0, 2G iPhone using Windows and WinPwn.
♦ Create a folder called ‘Pwnage’ on your desktop. Place Winpwn 2.0.0.3, 3.9BL, 4.6BL and the 2.0 firmware.

♦ Install Winpwn from the above and you will see the winpwn icon on the desktop. Open winpwn and click Browse .ipsw button.

♦ Find the 2.0 firmware file iPhone1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw from the Pwnage folder on your desktop and click open.

♦ After opening it, winpwn will check for the latest firmware. After that, click the ‘IPSW builder’ button.

♦ After that, click ‘install cydia’ and if you are not on AT&T, click ‘youtube activation fix’.

♦ Next click the ‘custom images’ tab and select your preferred boot images.

♦ Click to select the Custom Payload tab. Here you can select custom payloads to be automatically installed. Custom payloads will be discussed in later posts so hold on.

♦ Select the ‘Advacned’ Tab. And check Activate Phone, Enable Baseband update, and Unlock baseband.

♦ Also, bootloader files will be required. Click the Bootloader 3.9 and then select the BL39.bin file in your Pwnage Folder. After that, click the Bootloader 4.6 button and select the BL46.bin file in your Pwnage Folder.

♦ Now click on the Build .ipsw button at the bottom left to build your custom ipsw firmware file. Head over to your Pwnage folder and click Save .

♦ Once WinPwn has finished creating your custom firmware then click the iPwner button from the main menu.

♦ Now select the custom firmware file that was just built from the Pwnage folder to your desktop and click Open

♦ Then you will get a message that says ‘your iphone has been pwned’.

♦ Next we will need to put the iPhone in the DFU mode and restore using iTunes.
♦ Click OK when iTunes says that you are on the recovery mode.

♦ Hold down Shift and click the Restore button in iTunes.

A popup window will appear asking you to select your firmware. Select the Custom firmware file that we previously saved in the Pwnage folder and then hit Open .

Thats it! Your iPhone is jailbroken and unlocked. Have fun.

Hello, this really rox, just upgraded my iphone 2G from 1.1.4 to 2.0 without any problems on Vista Ultimate 32Bit. Keep up the excellent work. Love the jailbroken iphones with custom apps much more than originals.
