It's not the iPhone 3G unlock yet, but at least those of you who held-off from updating your iPhone to the 2.0.1 firmware are about to get a taste of improved stability and snappy keyboarding while early updaters will once again gain access to their jailbroken apps. Or so says the DevTeam who claim that PwnageTool 2.0.2 is "undergoing final checks and will be packaged, signed and should be uploaded within the next few hours, so count on it being released sometime on Thursday." The update will be provided via a direct link (which we'll pass along) and over the PwnageTool's software updater. So block out some time in your calendars, there's plenty of newbie hackery to be done later on today.Update: Delayed, clearly, here's why.
If after updating to 2.0.1 your iPhone is still "buggy". You should really try to do a fresh install of the OS.
This has worked for many people, as always make sure to backup everything first as reinstalling will wipe the phone;)
I hope iLiberty+ gets updated for this.
IMO the best jailbreaking/unlocking/activating app available right now. Yes, you can choose installer over Cydia (for those not on 2.0.0 or 2.0.1, at least until installer 4.0 comes out)
Oh, right, a combo of Installer 4 and Cydia would be the ultimate jailbroken software source combo.
why does everyone think that installer is going to magically make more apps appear?
ITS NOT GET IT THROUGH YOUR FUCKING HEADS

also iliberty is garbage and will never work with 2.0+
same goes for ziphone
2.0.1 has been jb'able since it came out if you know how to use xpwn noobs
any more updates when it's coming out guys? i've got a 16GB JB 2.0 iPhone with Telstra over here in Australia, no intention to unlock it, but am keen to get installer on there and reduce lag. Isn't it almost 3pm over there for you guys on the west coast?
From the dev blog-
Installer 4 and PwnageTool 2.0.2
We’ve just had word that our friends at RiPDev almost have Installer 4 (Beta) ready for public beta release, with that awesome news we’ve decided to include it in the PwnageTool 2.0.2 release, we are waiting for the software from them and we need to quickly test and add a small couple of changes that go alongside Installer.
Usually we don’t give release dates, this is so we don’t feel pressured into releasing something if it isn’t ready, or we can hold off if something comes up in the last minute (last time this was the addition of the 3G jailbreak), today we thought we were releasing, and you guys seemed restless (we read the comments) so we said “sometime today”.
We think the Installer 4 beta is big news, and I’m sure lots of you guys want it and because of this the release should now take place sometime tomorrow (Friday), we want to do all this in one hit, we don’t want to make two releases in two days (we all have day jobs too!), and besides the work has already begun to prepare PwnageTool for Installer 4, people will always say “you should have done this” and “you should have done that”, but we think that this is the best way to lighten the load on our servers and more importantly team-members while still giving you guys all the features you want.
We don’t want to keep you guys refreshing and commenting to ask where the latest update is, so we thought we’d just tell you now.
This release will of course include the new release of cydia that has bugfixes and new features.
Please don’t wait up for us, PwnageTool 2.0.2 with shiny new stuff is coming very soon.
I finally got my 3G iPhone unlocked for T-Mobile. Has anyone gotten the question about the carrier from itunes, when using the new unlock sim card?
delayed again for perfection
