iPwner

This part of the tool will actually "Pwn" your device. The device can be a boxfresh iPhone or iPod Touch or a previously activate or unlocked device (as long as the device is running 1.1.3 or 1.1.4)

Clicking the 'iPwn' button will initiate the process. The tool will require the device to be put into recovery mode[i]. The best way to do this is by powering off the phone, removing the sync cable (or removing from the dock) on the bottom of the iPhone then while holding the round "home button" at the bottom of the phone reconnect the phone to the sync cable (and keep holding the button).

Once PwnageTool has detected the recovery mode the pwnage process will start, information will be sent to the device that will start the pwnage process. You will see text based console messages displayed on the screen and information reporting the status of the process can be seen in these console messages. The whole pwnage process will take around 2 minutes. Once the process is complete the phone will reboot. If your phone has been successfully "pwned" you will see a custom boot graphic that replaces the original white Apple boot logo. Once you see this logo you will then be able to use your phone as normal, but you will now be able to use the remaining features of the pwnage tool.
