The iPhone Dev team finally released the 2.0 incarnation of their wellknown iPhone activation/jailbreak/unlocking tool.

Currently only available as a mac binary it allows users to do the following:

  • iPhone (1st Gen) with 2.0 - Activated, Unlocked & Jailbroken, (with support for third party applications).
  • iPod Touch with 2.0 - Activated & Jailbroken, (with support for third party applications).
  • iPhone (3G) with 2.0 - Activated, Jailbroken (with  support for third party applications).

There is currently no 2.0 capable version of the Nullriver/RipDev Installer.app to install additional 3rd party applications but there is Cydia which allows that in a different approach.

If you are unable to edit your EDGE APN settings (e.g. you are on a legit iPhone carrier but with a nonlegit mobile data plan) you cannot just install some hack via your installer/cydia. There is just no such hack available yet.

You can work around this by downloading the official Apple iPhone configuration utility and create a profile attachment that contains your APN settings and mail this profile to your phone (and then execute that attachment). This will change your APN settings to those in the profile.
