Read-Write Access
Someone mentioned rw access to the iPod Touch 2G, and how they want to install cracked apps with just that. Besides the fact that we do not endorse any kind of malicious activity on jailbroken devices such as that, having rw access will not let you install cracked applications. A cracked application is as good as Cydia in the eyes of the kernel, it is unsigned. So if cracked applications work, then Cydia will work. Apple will probably add something to prevent piracy within the kernel, which is hard to patch, hopefully. Pirates are annoying and can make developers less keen to use that platform.
Screenshots in the previous post
Those are from my jailbroken iPhone 3G, not an iPod Touch 2G, as some have thought. I threw together a QuickPwn bundle for myself to use, as I couldn’t wait to be able to download my Attack of the Show and Systm podcasts from the iTunes store. I never upgraded QuickPwn (Mac version) past 1.0 because I have been using my own bundles anyway, but team member wEsTbAeR– informed me that on QuickPwn 1.1 for Mac he got a “wrong firmware version” error when trying to use it on his 2.2 iPhone 2G.
2.2 Filesystem Dump
1. I did not have time to try dumping the 2.2 iPod Touch 2G firmware yet, hopefully I will sometime tonight.
2. I will not distribute the dump, as some have asked in the comments, only because it has copyrighted Apple files which would be illegal to distribute. Sorry.
QuickPwn / Pwnage bundles
Keep an eye on the svn at http://chronicdev.googlecode.com/ if you are an early adopter and like to experiment. Some team members may upload homemade QuickPwn / Pwnage bundles if we can be sure that they work OK, but note that it is only for developers and Cydia will not work until the bundles are officiallly released in a new PwnageTool / QuickPwn revision from our friends at The iPhone Dev Team.
C'mon! Upload the QuickPWN/Pwnage bundles!
