The system is trying to work up some magic to set up your account but based on the information provided, it just doesn’t know what to do. You’re going to end up one unhappy customer unless you know exactly how to enter the info correctly. Using my previous account information, here’s the correct way to enter the information so that your iPhone can understand.

As soon as you click NEXT, a second field called Server miraculously appears (see image above). You will NEVER see this field if you INCORRECTLY enter info in the initial four fields. Instead, you will get “Verifying Exchange account information” message with the spinning progress icon and it never connects. Next, enter your Server info. In my case, my server is webmail.iphonebuzz.com. Click SAVE to continue. You should then see the same info in the screenshot below. Click Sync and you’re good to go. Make sure to take NOTE that all data in your Contacts and Calendars will be erased when you first synchronize Exchange.

Editor’s note: keep in mind that this How-to setup Exchange on iPhone 2.0 Beta 3 will not solve all your problems should you run into issues on the server side such as missing certificates. Please seek out your administrator for support.

You want it you got it…

It is now for download people. Yes, I am talking about the 2.0 Firmware that is due late in June. I have officially Unlocked the 2.0 iPhone and I have also Pwnage my phone also.

In the Download you will also be receiving the Pwnage tool which will allow you to build custom Firmwares and sync them directly onto your iPhone straight from iTunes.

Bonus:

In the Download package you will also receive a tutorial and a Video Tutorial on how to use the Pwnage program and how to unlock the 2.0 phone. Believe me it is very simple and not hard to do at all.

LifeTime Warranty:

30 Day 100% money Back Guarantee if you are not happy. You will receive my LifeTime support with any questions or concerns that you may have. You will receive my email and phone number for anything that you may need assistance with.

You’ve been warned; don’t give this guy a dime! I can’t wait for Apple to tear him a new one – being that he’s dumb enough to show his IMEI and serial number: 88811n4x0kh IMEI : 01 136400 375347.

A new version of the Pwnage Tool seems to be right on the horizon. Apple is getting ready to start making things a little harder on the Dev Team, and they plan on bringing their A game. The Dev Team will need to stay on their toes if they plan to not lose this cat and mouse game with Apple.

For those of you who do not remember, the Pwnage Tool allows total, and utter control of the iPhone. It allows pre-patched firmware to be loaded onto the iPhone. This is immensely useful, as firmware could be downloaded, already jailbroken and unlocked, and then loaded onto an iPhone. Complicated unlocking and jaibreaking methods have been made obsolete by this piece of software.

We’re not sure what’s included in the new release of the SDK other than what’s stated in Apple’s notes, “fixes bugs and adds support for the latest iPhone OS.”

As I stated above, the iPhone OS 2.0 5A240d is also available to authorized developers, eliminating an issue in which devices running the previous, expired OS build 5A225c were rendered non-functional.

The anonymous tipster also pointed us to an interview with the developers, conducted by the iPhone project. Based on the first question regarding what PWN will do for iPhone owners, the developers responded by saying that it will allow you to restore your handset to a jailbroken and unlocked state. Then, eventually, you’ll be able to back up the entire iPhone and restore it to whatever state you like it, restore straight to a jailbroken state with installer, or even potentially install other OSes like Linux right on the iPhone. How cool would it be to be able to dual boot the iPhone with Linux?

The iPhone Dev Team explained the overview process of how the first release of Pwnage works. First of all, you must be running Mac OSX; from what I can gather, while not available today the Windows version will be coming out further down the road.

The first thing to do is make sure you have the Official IPSW of the firmware you are running (eg. If you are running 1.1.4, download 1.1.4). Now open the Pwnage tool, and click “Browse .ipsw” and browse to the firmware file that you just downloaded. Next you click the “iPwner” button, and watch as PWNAGE patches the iPhone bootlader, making it possible to circumvent any code signing checks. After this, your iPhone will reboot. As the iPhone reboots, exit the Pwnage app, and reopen it.

Here is where the magic happens, once the phone has rebooted, click on “IPSW Builder,” and you are presented with a list of the building options (jailbreak, unlock, etc..) including the all new “BootNeuter,” the ultimate iPhone unlocking solution. Once you have customized your IPSW, hit OK and let Pwnage build the restore file. Next we head to iTunes, option+click on the restore button, and navigate to the custom ipsw that you just created,. Hit OK and we’re done! iTunes will restore the iPhone to the state of your choosing (Be it jailbroken, unlocked etc…). - The iPhone Dev Team

Pwnage Presentation in Moscow
MOSCOW, Russia, March 29, 2008

Today key members of “The iPhone DevTeam” demonstrated the long-awaited software application “Pwnage Tool”. The demonstration took place at the iPhone 3.0 party which brought together hundreds of iPhone hardware and software enthusiasts.

*The software is a self contained application (for MacOS 10.4.x and 10.5.x) that allows all current models of the iPhone device to be “Pwned”. This term (in relation to this software) refers to the patching of the stock bootloader so that it will allow the execution of unsigned code and circumvent code-signing checks. “Pwnage” only needs to be performed once to allow the additional features on the iPhone.

*The application also processes and modifies existing Apple archives so that unique, custom rolled firmware bundles can be installed onto the “Pwned” iPhone directly from iTunes.
These ”.ipsw” files can be created and patched by the application to allow third-party modifications such as activation, application installation, baseband modification, custom phone graphics etc.

*The tool works automatically on box-fresh (OTB) 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 iPhones and requires minimal interaction from the user.

*The tool also ships with an iPhone application that is automatically installed and run on first boot (if the user requests it) that is called “BootNeuter”, This will enable “Bootneutering” of the iPhone baseband allowing custom firmware to be installed. Arbitrary secpacks and fls files will be accepted when the device is in this state, please refer to the application help file for specific information.

If the user has access to developer versions of the iPhone software (such as 1.2 or 2.0) provisions have been made to support this software and allow it to be used on any device. This will be useful for legitimate SDK trialists to install their software on more than one device, this should not be used unless you are an official member of the SDK programme.
