After iPhone 3GS iOS 4.2 jailbreak bundle, MSFT.guy released iPhone 3G iOS 4.2 beta 1 pwnage tool bundle, that mean with a little workaround in pwnage tool you can update your already pwned iPhone 3G to iOS 4.2 Beta with jailbreak and unlock support. Procedure is very easy, you have to add a bundle file to the DevTeam’s pwnage tool for Mac, that will enable support for custom firmware 4.2 beta Creation. Need less to say iOS 4.2 is still in beta build, final build is now less than 8 weeks away.

Note / Warning :

  • The bundles included in this release are not official because they were not issued by the DevTeam.
  • You must be on already pwned 4.1 / 4.0 / lower.
  • iPhone 3G and Mac OS only.
  • This is for advanced users only if you don’t know, what you are doing stay away and wait for official Dev team / Geohot tools.
  • Use this guide on your own risk, i am not responsible for any damage (if any). The procedure mentioned below is tested by me and it works.

Requirements:

Instructions to add custom bundles

1. Download the iPhone 3G iOS 4.2 beta bundle mentioned in the requirements and unzip to your desktop or where ever you want .

2. Right-click the Mouse on PwnageTool and click on “Show Package Contents”

3. Then enter “Contents” then “Resources” and finally “FirmwareBundles”.

4. Move the bundle.zip to the FirmwareBundles folder  and close the folder.

5. Launch PwnageTool (now supported for iOS 4.2 Beta ) and proceed normally with the construction of custom firmware, you can take a reference fro our previous guide to Jailbreak iPhone With Pwnage Tool (Mac). This way, Mac users can jailbreak the latest iOS 4 GM while preserving their baseband.
