DevTeam releases Pwnage Tool for iPhone OS 3.1.3

DevTeam releases Pwnage Tool for iPhone OS 3..jpgIt never takes long for the Dev Team to pry open the seams of the latest iPhone OS firmware, tickle its insides and come up with a fresh Jailbreak. Less than a week after Apple released their iPhone OS 3.1.3 update, the Dev Team followed it up with an update of their own: Pwnage Tool 3.1.5.

Here’s the caveat: the iPhone OS 3.1.3 update was pretty insignificant. The only real bug fix for non-Japanese users was improvement of the battery life indicator in rare cases. If you haven’t noticed a problem with your jailbroken phone, especially an iPhone 3G or 3Gs, you shouldn’t upgrade, since if you mess up your Pwnage, you risk losing your carrier unlock forever.

    I think you mean ‘PwnageTool’ instead of QuickPwn. Quickpwn has been discontinued for a long time now

    Yeah, I always get confused, since my early days of Jailbreaking were with QuickPwn. Anyway, fixed, and thanks for the polite correction, sepsis.
