Jailbreaking my old iPhone 2G (Edge version).
It was a bit hard to find software that would still allow me to jailbreak this 2G.
Soooow, I mirrored all I used.
Bootloader: 3.9 or 4.6
PwnageTool: 3.1.5
Be aware: you will need iTunes 9 (or 8, I guess) – iTunes 10 gives an error: “iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1600).”
Follow basic instructions on the PwnageTool (export mode > you need to select the default IPSW) and you’ll get there.
And I quote from AppleInsider;
The U.S. government on Monday announced new rules that make it officially legal for iPhone owners to "jailbreak" their device and run unauthorized third-party applications. In addition, it is now acceptable to unlock any cell phone for use on multiple carriers.
According to The Associated Press, the government approved a handful of new exemptions to a federal law that prevents the circumvention of technical measure that prevent users from accessing and modifying copyrighted works. The report noted that every three years, the Library of Congress' Copyright Office authorizes exemptions to ensure existing law does not prevent non-infringing use of copyrighted material.
