  1. Download the 2.0.1 FW update from within iTunes.
  2. Google Bootloader 3.9 and 4.6 and download them.
  3. Run Pwnage 2.0.2.
  4. Select your iPhone type.
  5. Click the big arrow at bottom.
  6. Select the FW that it finds.
  7. Click the big arrow at bottom.
  8. Click on the Build Custom FW at bottom.
  9. Click the big arrow at bottom.
  10. Select where you want to save the custom FW (I choose Desktop).
  11. Enter your password when prompted.
  12. Then follow the prompts to properly reboot your iPhone to prepare for the flashing.

Once done, close the Pwnage tool and go back to iTunes which should have detected your phone in Restore mode. Click okay to that message then make sure you press the alt/option key while you click on the Restore button on iTunes. If you don’t then you’ll just update your phone to 2.0.1 with no pwnage. Okay, once you alt/option click Restore, find your custom FW and select it and that’s it.

Not that hard.

I was browsing through some available 2.0 native apps and I still don’t see anything worth jailbreaking for. Where is a video app? Better camera?

Also, when you jailbreak do you loose your iTunes functionality, ie music transfer and all that? Remote app functionality?

I’m just not feeling the jailbreak just to have some NES emulator…
