Quickpwn and winpwn not working!


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, yesterday i got an iphone for free, i had read in the past about jailbreaking and also i had read a bit about the dev team and yell0w sn0w.

So equipped with all the right software and tutorials i was all set to jailbreak, install cydia and then yellow snow so i could use my vodafone sim.

But EVERY single time i try to run either winpwn or quickpwm (latest versions) they wont start, vista says they aint working and the good old problem solution crap, ive tried emulating windows xp and running as adming and both wont work.

The only solution i can think of is to try doing all of this on windows xp

I am currently running 64 bit vista, all updated with latest .net framework etc.

The answer is yes.

I followed all the tuts, activated my phone using the 02 sim, then once in itunes restore etc.

Its the actual apps that wont open, they dont even run for a second they just crash instantly.

That's really strange. I had something similar happen, but it turned out it was because I was running Vista on a MacBook - sorted it out after running the tools on a desktop PC under Vista. I have no idea if it was the MacBook hardware or not.

If you have access to another computer I would try that. Other then that I'm not sure what else. Do you have UAC enabled/disabled?

Yeah it is really strange, im gonna get my sisters laptop and try, she has windows vista 32 bit, so i will see how it goes, its just a pain in the ass and i would really like to know why its not working for me.

I have UAC off cause its a pain in the ass and i know when my computers gonna be getting attacked lol.

Interesting - I develop QuickPwn for Windows and I can confirm it does work on 64-bit Vista normally. Can you give me a screenshot of the error? Incidentally, WinPwn hasn't been updated for a while and so won't work with recent firmware releases - QuickPwn is your best bet. It requires the .NET Framework 2.0 (inc. with Vista) and the latest iTunes to be installed. But yes, a screenshot of the error would be good.

    • Par for the course. I asked a question a few days ago and was threatened to be reported. 😂
    • Ummmm Are you kidding? Do think these books being sold are disclosing they are AI written?
    • i'm just commenting because of this madness. you simply asked "what crowd" which i too am genuinely curious about, only to receive a response in the form of a link that directs to an analysis of the audited financial statements with the accompanying notes. then you say that the guy who wrote it is stupid, which whatever, that's not an argument being discussed atm, only to receive a response from Arceles saying "i don't deal with people whose first response is an ad homenim". jesus. this is like making a claim, and then saying "i don't deal with people who speak in a certain way or swear so i'm not gonna answer you hah!" (said in a nasaly voice, not trying to depict you Arceles). then focus on the argument instead of the explanation begins... "so what don't you like about the guy (lunduke)" followed by "he just likes to insult people" and the explanation for the "crowd" being referred to was never even established. so a request for an explanation about the crowd turned into an argument about "why do you think lunduke is an idiot". wowza.
    • Sony lays off 30% of staff from Days Gone developer Bend Studio by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Another wave of layoffs has hit the game developer space, and this time, it's a first-party Sony studio that's been affected. Following a report by Bloomberg's Jason Schreier, Bend Studio has confirmed that it is letting go of "incredibly talented teammates" as it begins work on a new game project. "Today, we said goodbye to some incredibly talented teammates as we transition to our next project," said Bend Studio in a social media post today. "We're deeply thankful for their contributions as they've shaped who we are, and their impact will always be part of our story." Bend Studio is most well-known for its 2019-released open-world zombie adventure Days Gone, which even received a remaster just a few months ago. Prior to that, the studio had been responsible for the classic Syphon Filter series while also developing several PlayStation Portable and Vita games like Resistance: Retribution and Uncharted: Golden Abyss, respectively. "This is a difficult moment for our team, but we hold immense respect for everyone who got us here," the company added. "As we move forward, we remain committed to building the future of Bend Studio with creativity, passion, and innovation in the titles we craft." While Sony did not detail just how many staff have been affected by this latest decision, Jason Schreier revealed that 30% of the studio is being laid off. This amounts to around 40 people, according to the reporter. Earlier this year, Sony canceled two live service games that were in development at Bend Studio and Bluepoint Games. It was never revealed what this mystery game was supposed to be. "Bend and Bluepoint are highly accomplished teams who are valued members of the PlayStation Studios family," Sony said at the time. It's unclear if Bluepoint, which had been developing a God of War live service experience, will soon be hit by its own wave of layoffs too.
