New Pwnage Tool 2.0.3 and QuickPwn 1.50

I haven’t been keeping up with my submissions as of late so this one squeaked through. But the http://iphone-dev.org team has updated both their PwnageTool and QuickPwn Tool. There is still however no baseband unlock, just support for new jailbreaking of the new firmware.

QuickPwn Release Allows Fast Jailbreak Of iPhone Firmware Update 2.0.2

That’s right, hot off the blog presses QuickPwn has been updated by the iphone-dev.org team and now allows you to Jailbreak your iPhones 2.0.2 firmware. The new 2.0.2 firmware that was released on Monday supposedly fixes some “bugs”, however the bugs aren’t mentioned anywhere.
