One iPhone owner, Martin Schrotz decided he didn’t like the plastic casing on the back of his iPhone 3GS so he set out to re-design it.

Just a day after the new iPhone Software 2.2 has been released, the guys at the iPhone DevTeam have managed to crack it, and QuickPwn 2.2 has been released for Mac and Windows.

As well as the release of Quickpwn 2.2 for Mac and Windows, they have also released Pwnage 2.2 for Mac.

GOLDEN RULE: If you have a 3G iPhone and want potential soft unlock in the near future do NOT use QuickPwn, and do not use the official ipsw or the iTunes update process without using PwnageTool.

Read item 1 again and again.

At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the latest versions of PwnageTool and QuickPwn.

These are suitable for the recent 2.2 release.

Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.

The ‘late 2008’ MacBook/air/pro line of computers have an issue with DFU mode. While it’s possible to go from Pwned 2.1 -> Pwned 2.2 (using PwnageTool), you can’t yet go from stock to pwned. If in any doubt use a different machine.

Choosing the correct tool is crucial. Be warned!

The guys over at iPhone Hacks, have put together a great guide on how to sync your iPhone with more than one computer.

Lets assume you want to sync with two computers, the one that you currently sync your iPhone with, we will call it the “regular sync computer” and the other computer you want to sync your iPhone with as well, we will call it the “new computer”.

On the “new sync computer” you want to sync with, backup “iTunes Music Library.xml” and “iTunes Music Library” (Tunes Music Library.itl on a PC) to a safe location as the hack involves modifying these files.

For full instructions on how to sync your iPhone with more than one computer head on over to iPhone Hacks.
