Spirit2Pwn : Spirit Users Can Now Upgrade to iOS 4

MMI IS REPORTING THIS TO BE FAKE! YOUVE BEEN WARNED:

Do you have an iPhone 3GS with the old bootrom, and used Spirit to jailbreak it? Now you want to upgrade to iOS4, but you think your stuck, because the current jailbreak doesn’t work with Spirited devices, right? You could try to re-jailbreak, with redsn0w, pwnage tool, or blackra1n, depending on what firmware you’re on, but now there’s an easier way.

A new patch has been released, called “Spirit2Pwn”, which allows you to use the current Pwnage Tool with a Spirited device.

You need to add a new repository to your device, to find the patch. Open Cydia, tap theManage tab, tap Edit in the top right, then tap Add in the top left. Add this source:http://repo.woowiz.net.

Then, just search for “Spirit2Pwn”, and install. It will open up your device, to allow the current Pwnage Tool to work. Take a look at the last few lines of the verbose screenshot.

Now you can use Pwnage Tool 4.0 to build a custom iOS4 firmware, and restore  withiTunes. This will not work with newer bootrom models. Spirit2Pwn is only for older bootrom iPhone 3GS, that was jailbroken with Spirit. If you’re jailbreaking your iPhone 3G, you can just use the most recent version of Redsn0w.

I have confirmed this to work on an iPhone 3GS, with older bootrom, that was jailbroken with Spirit. If you follow me on Twitter, you might remember a few months back, I bought an iPhone 3GS, to replace my wife’s busted iPhone 3G. I found one second hand, that was still on iPhone OS 3.1, and had old bootrom. I ended up doing an official update in iTunes, to 3.1.3, then using Spirit to jailbreak. I thought I would have to re-jailbreak, before I could update her to a jailbroken iOS 4, but I just installed this patch and my custom iOS 4 firmware worked perfectly.

[Guide] How To Save Your SHSHs With TinyUmbrella 4.00.26

A developer known as “notcom“, has released a couple of tools in the past, to help with downgrading yourfirmware on your iPhone 3GS ans iPod Touch 3rd gen. Umbrella was used to back up your SHSH locally, and TinyTSS was used to call Saurik’s server, during the restore process, to grab your SHSH for your firmware of choice. Notcom has released TinyUmbrella, which combines theses 2 programs in one.

TinyUmbrella v 4.00.26 now supports ALL devices running iOS 4, including iPhone 4. With rumours of an update to iOS4 coming very soon, to fix the “death grip” issue, is is important to make sure your SHSHs for iOS 4 are backed up, of you will have trouble with restoring to a previous and/or custom firmware in the future. This version also includes a “Kick out ofrecovery mode” button, for times when your baseband is newer than your firmware, and you get the 1015 error after restore.

TinyUmbrella 4.00.26 is available for Mac and Windows and works with iTunes 9.0 and up. Your device does NOT need to be jailbroken to save your SHSH.

- Open TinyUmbrella and connect your device.

- You can go into Advanced Settings, to manually select your device and where you want to save your SHSHs.

- Then simply click “Save My SHSH”, and TinyUmbrella automatcially grans your SHSH and uploads it to Saurik’s server.

- Then, when you need to restore, click the “Start TSS Server” button, and it will make iTunes call Saurik’s server, instead of Apple, to grab the signature for whatever firmware you’re installing.

Once the restore is complete, you will most likely have a 10XX error. Specifically, iPhone 4will give you a 1004 error, and if your baseband doesn’t match your firmware, you’ll get a 1014 or 1015 error. If you get one of these errors, your device will be stuck in recovery mode. Simply click the “Kick Device Out of Recovery” and your device will reboot to the lockscreen, or activation screen, depending on the firmware you’re using for restore.

This won’t show up in Cydia right away. Give Saurik some time update Cydia to show iOS 4 SHSHs. If you click the “Display SHSHs” button, you’ll see what has been backed up.

If you are on iOS 4 now, we suggest you get your SHSHs backed up, even if you’re not jailbroken yet. It is rumoured that an update is coming soon, and iOS 4 will stop being signed at the time.
