Pwnage Tool: Apple iOS 4.3.2 Jailbreak Guide

Pwnage tool is a PC software that can be used to jailbreak iOS powered devices. iPhone Dev-Team is the developer of this freeware. The Freeware bring an untethered jailbreak for Apple’s firmware, include the new firmware version 4.3.2 (although only tested with version 4.3.1) with the latest version.

Now, it has three years since the very first version of PwnageTool that was released. Almost every new iOS version can be jail-broken with this tool. The 4.3.1 untether works on all devices that actually support 4.3.1 (even the new 4.3.2 version) except for the iPad2:

iPhone3GS,
iPhone4 (GSM),
iPod touch 3G,
iPod touch 4G,
iPad1,
AppleTV 2G (PwnageTool only for now).

The reason the untether won’t work as-is on the iPad2 is that it requires a boot ROM or iBoot-level exploit to install, and the iPad2 is not susceptible to either the limera1n or SHAtter boot ROM exploits.

As you know, jailbreaking is now legal. Consumers should be allowed to jailbreak their iPhones and install whatever applications they like: not just those approved by Apple. Unlocking your iPhone to install non-approved apps is a legal exemption to the DMCA, the Copyright Office has just ruled.

iOS 4.3.2 version on iPhone 4, iPad and iPod touch 3G/4G has been successfully jailbroken using custom PwnageTool bundles. The jailbreak though is tethered only for current state, which means that you will have to boot it into jailbroken state every time you reboot.
