what will happen if i already updated and need ultarsnow to unlock?

QuickGold is still important, the builtin search does not search our bookmarks. Hopefully we can find a tweak for the builtin search to include bookmarks….

Installing 3.0 as we speak using the restore option. Will do a fresh jb with new quickpwn when it’s available, made so many changes and wanted to undo some of them. Going to start fresh…just my opinion and choice.

from what i read here http://blog.iphone-dev.org/ you can go ahead and jailbreak and then use ultrasnow to unlock afterwords. but obviously you wont be able to make calls till ultrasnow is released

No more Quickgold? Quickgold is (was) so much better than Spotlight is! Is there no way to override the default behavior so that Quickgold can work again with the click of the home button?

Haha wow, i like that “regular people”

Anyway i doubt theyll give it to u, especially for that much

stop talking crap and wait for the software like all of us cause ur a dang liar Victor cause those mortocycles are only made by 1 company and are worth around 40k so i doubt your that desperate and if you are then man u must b a hoe.

I doubt it too. (Orlando) up there would probably offer sexual favors like a crackhead in NYC streets! Shame on Orlando

Agree. If Zataang doesn’t plan to take on this project, I do.

Right now I have 3g, with 2.2.1 firmware, with 2.30 baseband and 5.09 BL, So my question is.. if I upgrade it to 3.0 Firmware, will I be able to UNLOCK my phone or not, please help.. !!!!

yes UltraSnow on friday! i’m not an expert but i watched musclenerd live feed and paid attention

Victor, thank you, that is a big relief for me, i’m using my older CRAPY Razor phone since last week, since I accidently upgraded my 3g ” UNLOCKED” phone to 2.2.1 firmware, which upgraded my BL to 5.09, and Yellowsnow was unable to UNLOCK it. …. much respect for the BB and DEV TEAM…

Is the mobile installation patch for 3.0 ready and up in cydia? Anyone knows??

Thank you guys for working on this project. It means alot to many of us. I personally use some of the apps only available through Cydia for business purposes and find it crucial to have. Too bad Apple doesn’t have the foresight you all do…congrats!

BigBoss, regarding your step # 9, I have WAY more apps installed than will fit on 9 home screens, so what happens to the ones that do not appear even though I “unhide” them before restoring?

Any jailbroken apps will be lost upon upgrading software regardless. The steps mentioned above do ensure you don’t lose contacts etc

How with 3.0 and G2 ??

“It was jailbroken and unlicked”

I certainly hope it’s not been licked … yuk!! :P

Yea, backgrounder will need to be rewritten. I’ll add that to the list of known issues.

will there be a jailbreak/unlock for the first generation iPhone running on 3.0?thanks

How much more?

If I am using a gevey-3G turbo sim with fw 2.2.1 and baseband 2.30. if I upgrade to de 3.0 will the turbo sim work againt 3.0?

Hi.. I just upgrade to OS 3.0 and now got a problem. The problem is that all cydia, installous and jailbreaked apps gone.. Can i get back all these in OS 3.0? Please tell me how to get it. Thx..

Bigboss,
question: Will the release of Jailbreak 3.0 be finished in the next 4 hours?

Hello, my friend jb my iPod so I have no idea how jb works all I know is dl free apps and customize the background(winterbpard)..
Well my problem is, is it okay to update my itouch to v3.0? While it’s jb? If not how can I get v3.0 without unjb my iPod. Please help! Bigboss

“Go to settings, enable restrictions, enter a password, then disable restrictions.”

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
on a side note, i regret updating to 3.0 before the jailbreak is available. I keep sliding my finger for sbsettings to pop up :)

I have a question about the new itunes 8.2. If I upgrade to it which I haven’t yet, will I lose the jailbreak I have on here now? If I upgrade to it I don’t want to have the iPod returned to origional settings and have it unjail broken.

Good stuff with the backgrounder bigboss thanx for the reply even tho it’s 3:30 am est LOL. Go to sleep. Try get get this guide up asap too. Sayonara!

Some of you people should really read. I have seen the same ? Asked at least 5 times with multiple ?’s. The Big Boss has more important things to do then answer ignorant peeps that choose to IGNORE what has already bee written.

Thanks BigBoss for all that you do.

This thread is quite amusing. It’s got me in hysterics on my bus trip home.

Personally I’m waiting on iPhone-DEV with bated breath and will follow the instructions outlined by big boss above. It’s just like every other jailbreak really apart from the app incompatibilities, meh I’ll just remove them until 3.0 versions/fixes are released.

Ok a quick question, so basically when you say RESTORE and not UPDATE, your wanting us to manually restore it from a custom firmware that will be given to us or do you want us to RESTORE from a firmware that apple gave us. ALSO what do you mean were going to lost all of our jailbreak apps? Cant we just get them back again AFTER the jailbreak is released!

I m using 3g – 2.30.03 – BB 5.9 & also Turbo sim – Now can I upgrade to 3.0 ? And do i need turbo sim again ?

Hello there,,
i’m a 2g iphone user…
Just need to shift update and quick pwn…

Right??
Please help guys…

Now this is frustrating for me.. I upgraded to OS 3.0 without taking a backup now all my Jailbroken Apps have disappeared and when I check my settings Total Space: 14.2 GB Available: 2.1 GB.. where did all my remaining space go? Does that mean all my apps (jailbroken) been deleted and data’s i downloaded using them (movies, mp3s, etc.,) have also been erased?

Any chance I can restore back to 2.x as my iPhone was before OS 3.0 Upgrade? Like I said I never took a backup before upgrade but iTunes actually showed a status message “Backing up iPhone”.. does that mean I have a chance to recover my 2.x OS or only 2.x OS without jailbreak apps? Can someone point me to right direction ..? Cheers

so does it mean ill just have 2 wait for the firmware 3.0???is it same method of jailbreaking???no drama and stuff?

Hey, I was thinking, would it be possible to get the “iPhone 3G S” Camera that can video record, and put it on “iPhone 3G”. You now, maybe via SSH when 3.0 is jail-broken. what do you think?

i thought 3.0 already have video camera?

So do we do SHIFT + restore or do we just click restore!

Didn’t you read the instructions? Don’t update…RESTORE!! Jailbreaked apps will waste your disk space!!

Downgrade: install older itunes like 2.0 and put your iphone into dfu mode…then downgrade to 2.x

Greetz

By pressing Restore: Itunes will download the 3.0 from Internet and Install it.
You can press Shift + Restore : if you have downloaded the 3.0 firmware into your local PC or desktop and then point this file when Itunes Prompts for the file(This is more like a offline install)

Both gives you same results.

Cheers! from England

NO iPhone 3.0 firmware does not have video camera. only the new iphone “iPhone 3G S” Has the video camera. That’s why i was asking?

Does your iphone 2g was unlocked or jailbroken???

Will we be able to jailbreak the new 3GS ?
Any special considerations?

You will have to wait until Pwnage tool 3.0 is released sometime this week

My phone was unlocked and jailbroken.

It was on 2.2.1 with quickpwn.

I updated to 3.0 in Itunes.

Now: Emergency screen.

Thank you

I am on the exact situation, it is showing emergency screen but can send/receive calls… I am using 3G and had 2.2 but upgraded to 3.0 in itunes and now it is showing emergency screen… do you think that I just need to jailbreak ( Once Quickpwn is released ) or I need to do something else?

My phone is jailbroken, but how to know if it is unlocked or not??
DAMN i need this OS 3 :)

well i’m one of the dummy who install 3.0 before reading anything when i should have restor to 3.0
Now of course that i’m having issues i finaly get to read all this!!! Duh!!! Any how was looking to downgrade my itunes but can’t find any platform for it. I have a Mac OS 10.5.7 and all platform offer download for PC !!?? So, how I do that exactly? And how does one put his iphone in DFU mode again?
Thank you.

No shit. People are all asking the same questions over and over. Read the rest of the posts(all these complex groups of letters), then ask questions. Victor, what size of busa u got runnin that raptor?

I have a 3G iPhone that was working on my ATT plan that is provided by a residual Att company. I have never had to jailbreak my iphone for it to work and function normally. I did the update and now I cannot make outgoing phone calls and cannot access anything that uses data. This way different than being LOCKED out of service. I was wondering if anyone has experienced this with thier 3G iPhones.

Yes, thnx!

Wow, READ BEFORE POSTING STUPID QUESTIONS!! And to the loosers who are offering the bike or money for ultrasnow and quickPwn, seriously, are you kidding me? Just wait like all of us other “Regular People”. Jackass. So, BTW, anyone have any news on the release? Oh and remember, for all those on ATT who want to use the native MMS on 3.0, keep waiting (or get swirly MMS) cause ATT’s network isn’t ready for it yet. And much thanks to BB and the Dev team!!! You all keep us happy and entertained.

There isint anything on here about the USB issues( if u were refering to my post). And ditto on the thanks to big boss and ALL the dev teams. u guys f’n rock!!!!!

Big thx to BB & the DEV Team you both are great!!!

Hope the new Jb comes soon
Greetz

Thank you for this. I thought I was screwed.

Thanks so much. Ppl are happy. )

You’re an idiot. I’m surprised you got a successful jailbreak in the first place.

See my answer above.

These are very cool intelligent conversation iPhones and killer bikes! Dang!

Correction to my typos above:

If you do a *factory* restore then you lose everything on your phone but you should back up everything up before doing that if you hope to recover synced information.

Thanks Saurik and Dev Team! You are doing great job! Greetings from Moldova! Ira!

What about Bluetooth?does the iPod touch 2G have it after the 3.0 jailbreak?

Just wanted to thank y’all for the incredible amount of time and work you people are dedicating to others.

BB & Dev Team ROCK !!!!
Cheers from Paris !

(ps : I think you should work out a partnership with some glasses company, since it seems that many people over here got problems reading lol)

Hi any idea as to when the 3.0 will come out? I’m going on a holiday as of 2mora and was hoping to unlock the 3.0 today or even jailbreak it today so I could just download ultrasn0w and install.., any news?

wishing us good luck ,a new trip starting ;)
thanks to the BB and all of the Developers working on it
cheers

Are you tryna say that the jailbreak is out today?

Hey there,

All I care about is keeping my iphone 2g unlocked. If I restore to the 3.0 firmware, will my phone no longer be unlocked?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I read about 75 of the comments looking for an reason but have to run!

Thanks!

i´m very sorry, but i still not got it.
i use JB 2.21 on 3G.
if i update to 3.0i lose jb, space and cydia-apps aso?
if i restore the OS3.0 downloaded from itunes, i loose the JB too, but not the space and if i JB then, the former cydia-apps will appear again??.

is this correct

regards

neiber

So is the Jailbreak not out yet??

Much appreciated for all your hard work and the information contained within this thread.

Thanks.

I tried them when I first bought my iphone and knew very little about the dev team, big boss, yellowsnow etc. they are a con and it took me a month to get my money back. Please stay away from them. The Dev team will see you right

So do we in good old South Africa appreciate all the work done: Super Cool

as far as #10 is that only for now or even after JB 3.0? will that space be gone forever?

I read the FAQ they indicate that they can unlock FW 3.0., but they do not say if there are other problems like with Youtube.

About time now that the dev team cracks os 3.0

Thanks a lot

So why not take some time out of your day and learn dev. on the iphone, If this is to much trouble then you wait inline with your fake pwn. Dev. have to make sure things work before its release, If you need it so bad then don’t update, Do what is suggested in the mean time. Dev, I want my sale to be back up please allow cydia store. … hehehe

how would I restore it to 3.0?

Thanks. Can’t wait

Is the jailbreak going to work on 3GS? And is ultrasnow going to work on this phone also?

And in Germany,too. Quite some multi-culti here^^

Hi I’ve got a jailbroken 2g should I upgrade to 3.0 using iTunes ? Then wait for the quickpwn jailbreak 3.0? Sorry I’m not sure what to do Can u help me with this ? Many thanks

Hi I have 2g iPhone & is currently jailbroken on 2.2.1 . Do I just restore my phone using itunes to 3.0? Or should I wait for quickpwn 3.0 Sorry I’m not cluedup on what to do I don’t wanna damage my iPhone Can u plze advise me if I should update using iTunes ? Or wait for quickpwn update 3.0 many thanx

I’ve been reading these posts, and hopefully checking back for the non-beta version of release of QuickPwn 3.0. Does anyone know when this will be made available, or are you all just waiting patiently like I am. Some of you knuckle heads need to read the posts before you repost the same requests over and over again…makes me sick.

Ok I’m counting down the hours before I can jail break my tmobile iPhone.

I got taxed a few months ago to buying a crappy ass. Turbo sim card that always kept loosing reception. So I can’t wait for dev teams magical spell..he hee

never mind, read Dev Team Blog. Thanks Dev’s. What would everyone do with out you!!!!!!!!!

You guys do such a great job and all I ask is that you continue. You guys are brilliant

I think I screwed up i have a 3g and i updated instead of restored can i get my space back

U guys are soooo funny.

iPhone without jailbreaking it not the same thanx as well

Ur all idiots. Once again I find myself complaining about ppl asking THE SAME FUCKING QUESTIONS. No u can’t jailbreak OR unlock 3.0 yet. Be careful when u can, I’ve heard of USB problems( eg, computer not properly communicating with device) but because of RETARDS big boss has completley ditched this blog and now we don’t know of there’s an issue with that or not. Kudos on all the thanks, fuck the rest of u handitards

also for Brazil, I speak for everyone here when I thank all devs that worked on the iPhone since its first appearance.

So does Canada here, been carrying my locked iPhone travelling everywhere, keep up the good work!

This whole thread is cracking me up…I can’t stop laughing. Some of the questions that keep getting asked with increasing weirdness are just too funny.

Yeah.

Hey Bigboss,
I have a 2G iPhone with FW 2.1 and I was wondering if I could jailbreak to 3.0 (when it comes out of course) without having compatibility issues, since saurik didn’t show it on the list on Cydia and I upgraded to iTunes 8.2 before I thought that it was a bad idea, since I assumed I could just do a 3.0 restore/jailbreak as if there were no such things as FW 2.2 and 2.2.1.
If no one answers ill probably try it anyway when the jailbreak update comes out.
Thanks

From Nigeria we just want to say a very Big thank u to the Dev Team, thx alot guys.

Did you know that Bluetooth is hardwaare ? R u really so dumb bitch ? Stop posting

For clarification I was talking to user Bigboss.

Hilarious

if you looked above to the main post no.9,you will find your answer..u can also use sbsettings to unhide them

Im sorry but thats pretty funny…because joining the NRA is really going to do anything. Lets try to keep everything on topic.

ByeBye apps!

I dont see why you would unless you have a phone that must be unlocked. Then I would say yes. Otherwise you just have to wait for the jailbreak for cydia apps.

Classic!!

Ok so can I updated my iPhone from the 2.2.1 to 3.0? Like will I lose a lot of shit? Cus I don’t want to lose stuff like Winterboard and Intallous, if I wait for the Dev team can I just updated then when they have a Quickpwn for it?

Many thanks to Dev Team from IRAQ

Dont worry, I did not ditch this blog nor will there be such issues in an official Dev Team jailbreak.

Wow to the guy with the random off topic post( father died and left money ? LOL

When you upgrade to 3.0 you will lose all of your apps and they will need to be re-installed after you pwn it again.

Star! thought I’d lost my category apps too. Worked a treat. Serves me right for being impatient!
Thank you!

LOL

Big respect to big boss,thanks for your hard work.

In middle east we also approtiate ur work
And I’m asking my self without u and the other developers how will the iPhone become…..

I think soo bored and sick

Give up BB and Dev-Team,,
i think Apple wins this battle..
but not the war !!
maybe you can try with FW 3.1 :)

Big Boss when will the jailbreak come out for 3.0. What date and what time.

Thank for all work hard for this, I need some body speak Spanish because I need help for the new upgrade for iPhone 3g. I from Puerto Rico Thank.

Jailbreakers in Canada love youtoo. If apple was smart. You would be employees with then making tonnea of cash your the best. Please keep it up

Will iBlacklist still work with 3.0?

That was for mac404daddy ur a nob

big thx from germany, too

This is a good idea.

http://code.google.com/p/networkpx/downloads/detail?name=Calculator.searchBundle.zip

See here for code that extends Spotlight.

So what if you did the update with hidden icons in SBSettings?

I did just that.. Now I can’t make the icon visible. I have removed it, and re installed it and as soon as it installs the icon disappears again. Do I have to wait for the jailbreak to get it back? Or is there something I can do to get it back? Also I can’t delete any of the pictures on my camera roll. On the phone it just does nothing, on the PC it tells me I don’t have permission.

Help is on the way people apple will loose this battle !!!!! Nuff respect to the dev team n bb mr jf

Thanks for all the hard work =D just one question, will winterboard work after the update? Can’t live without my dockflow

Thanks, matt

Yeah same you guys are proper clued up only just got iPhone using rebelsim so looking forward to software unlock

Looking forward to the new jailbreak and ultrasnow good work BB and the Dev team

Like some others I updated to v3.0 and have lost
space. Is there any other way apart from downgrading Itunes and firmware to retrieve that lost space ? Will jailbreaking v3.0 and reinstalling the apps overwrite the previously installed programs ?

An obese thank you from America!

I just jailbreaked my iPhone 3G with to official 3.0 firmware and I found that when I tap on the “More” button of SBSettings, the app just appear for half a sec and then quit…is it my problem or is it a problem to be fixed? Also, iPod toggle crashed springboard…

do we have a green light BB for the jb 3.0 what’s the deal keep it real

Irsms arks vgood reply

Pls don’t use the tethering through AT&T’s service when u can get it through a jailbroken iPhone otherwise ur data plan will go up to 60 bucks a month and there’s a 5gb cap on it. For the tethering feature the update isn’t worth it stick with the jailbroken apps.

ppl just relax a few more hours, think about the dev teams work, they do it for free ( downloading ) and it wouldnt be ready earlier if everybody asks. its a bit unpolitely in my eyes.

greetings and good luck in your future from austria to all participating members who are behind this project.

Jesus it’s 7pm on east coast June 19 and there’s only a shitty mac pwnage tool where’s the quick pwn for pc cmon dev team you ladys should of had a 3.0 jailbreak out or ready to go on June 17 cause you girls had so much time to fuck with the beta and figure out the way 3.0 works and Exacellent job to the retards who upgraded to 3.0 cause right now it doesn’t look good for a 3.0 jailbreak thanks to the diva team a bunch fat ugly nerdy ass bitches since you kids are bitches please be my bitch and go get me my 3.0 ya fatass retarded bitches

What’s is that “maybe” means. Please be more especific.
Thanks

next time I suggest using appbackup and get the files via ash before u restore… That’s what I do and I get all me saves games back even after a fresh restore

i hv 3g 3.0 iphone i didnt jailbreaked it before actually i accidently updated from 2.2.1 to 3.0 few days back now i want to know how do i unlock i mean wat would be the first procedure do i have to jailbreak first or unlock i am so confused and whats this ultrasn0w yellowsn0w etc do i need all these in order to unlock my 3.0 iphone ?

Backgrounder Work in part . . .

it only work when you set program to be automaticly backgronded in “backgrounder”

What if I screwed myself by putting the settings app IN a Categories folder? I can’t get in to make the change ala step 9.

I’ve done a full restore, but it won’t come back.

Ppl! Please let bigboss and the guys at dev team enjoy the rest of this weekend! It’s done when it is!!!

PLEASE! Read the post from BigBoss at the top of this page 1 through 10 again, and again, and again. Then you go to the dev-team’s page and read their post 1 through 4 over and over again. If you still don’t understand, believe me you are not ready to jailbreak anything!

Agreed! Thank you for cutting thru all the Bla bla out there!

Great work. We appreciate all you are doing. Merci beaucoup from France

I’m having the same problem, looks like the files are not compatible with 3.0, they may have changed the DB structure or something

I would like to know if I restore to 3.0 would I lose all my cydia apps? And also what’s the difference between updating and restoring?

Does SBS work well with FW 3.0?

The same happens for me. What is more my Categories app also just appears for a secont and then crashes…

Same here!

Also happens when I try to open BossPrefs, even changing permissions to 777 through SSH.

Thanks.

Solved: You need to install essential Cydia upgrades and it should work.

BOSS
Can you update BOSSTOOLS for 3.0 please so we can get more space and relocate FONTS, it does not work on 3.0 so far

Thank you for your great work!

Me too.. happened sometime last night after updating a couple of things in Cydia. One of which was Winterboard, but I’m not sure what the other was.

Also, Categories (the app) keeps crashing. The Categories Folders I created yesterday are working fine.

Poof by itself (not the one in SBSettings) is working.

I have the following installed: winterboard, sbsettings, categories, StatusNotifier, RockApp and Extensions (these are turned off b/c elert and tlert are not working yet), makeitmine, iblank and cycorder.. pwnage tool, 3G, 3.0 GM

did you use to go at st pats in qc

I’ve read almost all the other post, and see that only one person tried to JB with redsnow posted on CYDIA. Has anyone else tried this? How comparable is this to quickpwn and how is the compatability running other programs. I run windows on my computer, and used quickpwn on my 2.2.1 jailbreak. BigBoss and the rest of the dev team thanks for all your hard work! It is much appreciateed in here in NYC!

Thank you guys,romanian boys are really happy.

I jailbroke my 2.2.1 iPod with red snow I’m not exactly understanding how to update to 3.0 while still keeping the jailbreak plz help

from what i understand & the way i did mine was to update to 3.0 & then use the redsn0w to jailbreak after you update

I did the same thing. My settings app, my categories app, cydia, and winterboard were all in a categories folder when I upgraded using redsn0w. Not sure what to do to get to the settings folder to follow instruction #9.
Any suggestions are very welcome.

yep BIG shout out going to BigBoss all the way from Pakistan!!!!! Your Awsome!

Successfully JB 3G with redsn0w. Installed bunch of apps and favorite theme. All worked well. Then installed SBS. Springboard restarted as expected but all my icons were shifted around and my Cydia icon is missing. Tried to dock it but it isn’t showing up in dock.

How do I get cydia icon back so I can manage JB phone?

Thanks!!!

Sigh – decided to do reboot and icon came back. Sorry for confusion. Everything is working great. JB was very easy with no other problems.

Thanks to all who worked on JB and SBS.

and from your Canadian friends. Thanks for the long hours spent on making this all possible.

To those that are looking for the solution I figured out how to get my apps back after my update and everything (cydia, settings, and such) being hidden.

Use iphone browser (download it) and delete the file located at /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SpringBoard.plist. Then reboot.

I got ‘em all back. Now I’ll never put settings or cydia into a categories folder again. Lesson learned.

i figured it out, IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH SBSETTINGS’ “MORE” options DISABLE YOUR WIFI BEFORE USING IT, it will work like that.

Is jailbreak for windows ready now ?
Should we jailbreak now in anticipation of the unlock coming out in the next few days?

Can you tell us when will the ultrasnow comes out or released

This has to be the largest collection of idiots on the entire internet, like 90% are asking questions that are answered IN THE GUIDE at the top of the page! Anyone with an actual decent question is just being run over by “How to upgrading iphone 3.0?”.

But anyway so i restored to 3.0 ,i can live without my precious categories for a few days (or till I can borrow a mac). All went well but i still have the percentage signal strength, wifi, and battery from SBset. Is this normal? Doesn’t seem like it should be, will it mess with anything when I re-jailbreak?

Oh and BTW I definitely think 3.0 is worth it un-jbk for now there’s plenty to play with. http://www.ismashphone.com/2009/06/how_to_use_best_40_features_of_iphone_3.html

Ok i’m in no way an expert at this but ill tell you what I did (sorry bigboss for hackin’ up
ur directions)

IF YOU HAVE AN UNLOCKED IPHONE THIS WILL LOCK IT AND SINCE THERE IS NO WAY TO UNLOCK 3.0 YET YOU WILL HAVE AN EXPENSIVE PAPERWEIGHT FOR A WHILE, SO DONT DO IT!!

ALSO AS OF RIGHT NOW YOU CANT JAILBREAK 3.0 ON WINDOWS SO UNLESS YOU HAVE A MAC YOUR NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO USE CYDIA SBSETINGS CATEGORIES, ALL THAT STUFF. You can jailbreak with redsnow on a mac now tho so no problem there

I trust itunes back up, ive never had a problem with it losing any of my contacts or anything

1-If you have hidden any apps using poof, sbsettings, bossprefs or such, you should unhide them all prior to updating to avoid issues. Go to settings, (general), enable restrictions, enter a password, then disable restrictions. That should unhide all apps you care about making you update worthy in one easy step.

2-Restore your iphone by
a.update itunes (if you haven’t already NOT YOUR PHONE!)
b.plug iphone in
c.I downloaded the update first (I dont know if you have to) the little update box pops up says UPDATE or DOWNLOAD ONLY
d. click download only
e. after it downloads click restore on your iphone page
f. it’ll ask if you want to back up click yes
g. let it do its thing (it takes awhile)
e. click restore from backup

your all set
its 4:40 am here and ill look at this again tommorow

Redsn0w works ! As of now redsn0w is the new quickpwn. Remember, if you rely on yellowsn0w to get carrier reception stay away from redsn0w and 3.0 upgrade. Otherwhise you will have an ipod touch until ultrasn0w comes. The dev team at rebel simcard will soon have a beta out but beta versions are beta! =)

Thousands of thank you for your hard work to Bigboss, Saurik and the iphone dev-team.

Thanks from Pakistan

Hey bigboss ;;
I need some serious help ;; I’m not exactly sure how to upgrade my phone at all I’m scared that it might delete cydia and stuff can you seriously help me please thank you!!

EDIT — I’m sorry I’m an idiot redsnow works for windows and mac. (I said I was tired) Do above to update ur phone then use redsnow to unlock

From Saudi too man. You guys stand for a new kind of freedom!

Hi,
With my 3G upgraded os 3, previously jailbreaked on OS 2 without problems, I have been stupid and did’nt do the point 9 and 10 of the preparation. So now my 3G “jailbreaked” badly don’t show cydia or any other applications hidden with poof. How can I do to manage this properly without loosing also disk space ?????
Thanks for your help guys

So where’s the fuckin unlock then???????

Is apt backup working reliably? I updated it but can’t tell any difference. And the update did not say anything about it being compatible with 3.0 or not. Thanks

To right apple should hire you and give you lots of money for it, it’s the 21st century, if they approved the iphone would dominate!!! Like it don’t already!!! Keep up on the hardwork guys!

Help i downloaded 3.o firmware restored my iPod with it did redsnow synced for a long time and all the days of work of my jailbroken apps are gone plz help!!!!!!

I thought I had backed up them but I geuss not how do I get my stuff back?!!!!!

Thank you for SBS Settings. I just tried it on my ipt2G for first time and it is really slick! This is how all apps should be. You are the MAN!

Just so you know, CHRONUS, when installed from Cydia would not appear on on ipt2G springboard after 3.0 jb. I tried twice. I have found it by adding it to a CATEGORY. Thank you for Categories too.

Suggestion for Categories – could the icons be a seperate .app? They don’t work well, in that it’s almost impossible for me to scroll them, and opening them in Categories possibly(?) runs out of memory sooner. I’m thinking that if the icons were a separate .app, then once you make your categories, you could ditch the .app from your device too. I’m not a programmer, though I did some software QA, so I could be wrong, but it’s just a thought. Thanks for all your .apps. I, like so many others depend on them. By themselves they are good reasons to jb. Also, I used BossPrefs before, but this is such a great upgrade! Thanks again.

Now that I got Chronus running with Categories, I see that it appeared in the springboard! I checked all the pages of the springboard twice, and it wasn’t there, before I added it to Categories. Once I did, it shouldn’t show up on the springboard, but hey, I found it, so some cosmetic details don’t matter much to me. I just thought you might like to know.

Hola: tengo un iphone 3g 2.2.1 modem 02.30.03 y B.T 5.09 y esta jailbreak . El iPhone me permite todo menos llamar y recibir llamadas.Que es lo que tengo que hacerle.Muchas gracias .

Turbo sim does not work with 3.0 I’ve tried.

Ditto

From Venezuela,thanks

1st of all, thx all the way from Codts Rica!!

Now, I’m running on 2.2.1 with baseband 2.28.00 and relying on yellowsnow 4 my 3G.. I see I have many options when it commes to updating to 3.0, ofcourse I will have to wait for ultrasnow.. But:

1, wich way can I go when it comes to keeping my settings(it took me 2 weeks to get Internet to work on my phone), and all the important data on my phone?, if I do a backup to iTunes, once I finish the jailbrake, I can’t restore it from the back up, it never works and I will have to re-jailbrake… That would take out using the pwntool, “my guess” if I “update” to 3.0 using iTunes I will loose my jailbrake, but I would fix this by using quickpwn, I still need to wait for ultrasnow tho, but will I keep my settings,?,

When it commes to contacts and bookmarks, etc,, I have it all synced with iTunes, but what about the settings?? Also

2, every time I have re-jbrk my phone I have always had to re install everythin from cydia, one thing at the time .. I never understood aptbackup(ibelieve it’s called) it saves the all the “cydia ” info on files that get backed up, but like on the 1st thing, restoring from backup DOES NOT work for me,

So why can I do here,, update, start from scratch and re install everything, and mess around with da settings for another 2 weeks ? Or is there something I don’t know,, use quickpwn after updating threw iTunes or pwnage tool with a fresh custom firmware? And I’m still anxious about ultra snow, I guess there is no date set, but we have no choice but to wait and live with it, we need to be pacient(sp) thx by the way

Did my backup with PkgBackup. It has a nice feature is the integration with Facebook. Check it out in the Cydia Store.

How about voip over 3g for 3.0?

WISH!! Backgrounder will be upgrade for 3.0 firmware soon!?

That and just having to load the list takes a long time but they have more important stuff going on so no

I foolishly updated my Iphonento 3.0 and, as was to be expected, lost all my jb apps. I am trying to find a jailbreak but I expect there´s no way to do that until a jailbreak is available. I have been unable to install bigboss or cydia.
Any advice??
Asdrubal

I am restoring my I-phone right now and still in the back up process.

After pressing backup option, it gave me a message and also a no choice but to press “restore and update” in order to continue.

Did i do the right thing by pressing “restore and update” ?

Thanks to all the Bigboss,the devs and all hackers that make the iPhone much better, and a super BIG Thank You to Mr.Freeman and his Cydia. from Los Angeles.

New question. I am an AT&T customer. My daughter has an iPhone that we DO NOT have an iPhone data plan for. I wasn’t going to pay the $30 a month for her. I was very happy to find out that her OLD data plan for her Quickfire ($5 a month) worked with her iPhone with the exception of virtual voicemail. Now here comes the Question. I thought I read somewhere that 3.0 will Stop that from being possible. Can someone please confirm this.

I just hit update when cydia opened (after I added categories and the like) and it f’ed my phone. I am having to go through another go around of jailbreaking (3rd time). Is there any possibility that categories is screwing something up (I didn’t have anything else installed).

Thanks but can the update take up more of the other category on your iPod touch/iPhone

Jailbreakers: I know a lot of you here are waiting on a QuickPwn 3.0 download for the iPhone OS 3.0 firmware, but unfortunately Dev Team has decided to retire the QuickPwn program. QuickPwn.com is working on making it and plans to have the QuickPwn 3.0 jailbreak released by Friday this week (possibly earlier, but we don’t want to get your hopes up). If anyone has experience creating jailbreaking/unlocking software and would like to help with the QuickPwn 3.0 jailbreak please e-mail webmaster[@]quickpw

WTF????

It is so good to start frish. I like the idea of having my iPhone same as if it is the very first day to have it. But I think we need a good and simple instruction to do the frish upgrade.

Umm what?!? R u kidding me , this suks, I have to use quickpwn,, w8 but isn’t the quickpwn.com site the one that sells it or am I mixing u up with another site??

Thanks from most iPhone users of Russia! :) We love you guys and approviate all the hard work you have already done and all the supreme efforts you’ll make in the future! :)

Hi,

I’m a total newbie with the iPhone and don’t have a clue as to what is the difference between a jailbreak and an unlock. I currently have an iPhone 3g with firmware 2.2.1 and it uses a rebel simcard…

Can some one tell me that if I only click the restore and update button for and don’t do anything else for now, would have an up and running iPhone from which I can make phonecalls and everything?

Or if I have all this wrong then can someone guide me to somewhere ok the Internet where I can find a difference between a jailbreak and unlock in NORMAL and not nerdy language?

And from what I read here I PRESUME that upgrading to 3.0 will just render me without cydia whereas I still might be able to use the iPhone as a complete phone. Right?

I’m really confused here even though I have read the whole thread here! :/ help me out somebody!

Ps. When answering keep in mind I don’t understand the techie language being used here so keep it simple and also that I’m using a rebel simcard with my iPhone right now!

I’m really stumped as to what to do so please help me out :(

I jailbroke and unlocked my iPhone 2g successfully with redsnow I have no problems with cydia and everything works fine

do you know how to downgrade? please help

Knowledge is power my friend and power u are lacking if u did not read the 100s of posts concerning Cydia & the upgrade.
READ READ AND READ AGAIN.
Tisk tisk…

Jailbrake and unlock and unlock are the same thing when you say ur phone is unlocked it’s jailbroken yes if u click restore and update ur iPhone will still be a phone u need to wait for quickpown or ultrasnow to come out for 3.0

What if one’s “Updated” to 3 and not Restored?
What can be done to recover the space from previously installed jailbroken apps?

True

When you say “restore not upgrade” means that redsn0w or quickpwn or ultrasn0w have a restore option? How is it done? Do I have to do a backup from all my apps?

Any eta on ultrasnow please?

Why doesn’t crakulous work on 3.0?

Yes just search for the firmware online then put iPod in recovery mode and choose the firmware u want to downgrade too make sure u have everything backed up so u don’t lose anything

Toni

Why does crackulous atoumatically crash on 3.0 plz answers

Cydia disappeared on me. I did went into the directory and delete the file and it’s still not on the screen. I can search for it and open it though. What did I do or what can I do now

Wow.. I will not be upgrading to 3.0 for quite sometime. I don’t want to be like all the others asking repetitive questions..

Thanx from Argentina too

Idk but I’m guessing the jb will come out at the end if July

Hi. Unlock is when u have an AT&T phone and u either put a different sim in it so that u can use it on another network besides AT&T or when you use software to do the same thing. Jailbreaking is when you use a program called pwnage or the new redsn0w to customize your phone thru cydia like changing settings or putting themes on your phone or getting applications that you can’t find in the app store. Hope this helped

Thanks!

Did the jailbreak for my iPod touch 2g but I can’t get any keyboard themes to work ( I get them from cydia and checkmark it on winterboard). Vwallpaper also does not work. Can some one help?!?!?!?!?!

And by the way… Thanks to all the good folks in the dev team from puerto Rico!!!!! We really appreciate all the hard work.

What ever

You need to upgrade to 3.0 in order to unlock ur phone.

Get firmware online then restore to that firmware for u Mexican

A guy named Mexican a while back that I didn’t answer scroll up if u don’t beleive me

Canada loves you too d^o^b

Help please! I backup contact as instructed above but now only see contacts if contact icon is opened. Hit the phone icon, contact tab shows nothing. I updated through itunes before to 3.0 so contact works fine, then I backup manual as instructed above, redo firmware restore due to battery drainage. Thanks and hoping for answer!

I would love to find this out too!

Thanks!

Thanks from Italy too!

Hey ummm half the time my status bar won’t show up and my lockscreen is just black. Is that normal or is something wrong. Pls reply I need help

Kermit when did this start happening what’d did u use?

Thx big boss. So should I wait alittle bit more to upgrade.cuz I have an unlock one?

Thank You BigBoss! Here is an Austrian who appreciates your work too.

I followed instructions but ran into difficulties with contacts.
1. Made a backup with iTunes.
2. Also used ssh to copy /var/mobile/Library/AddressBook (and other directories)
3. Followed the procedure of doing a restore rather than an upgrade to 3.0.
4. Used iTunes to restore from backup. It restored some things but not others. There is no addressbook or music but notes, text messages, safari bookmarks, emails, phone history are all restored.
5. Anyway, went ahead with redsn0w jailbreak.
6. Tried to restore address book by copying it back to /var/mobile/Library/AddressBook but iPhone still sees no addresses.

Anyone have any suggestions? I’m not so concerned about the music as I still have that in iTunes.

i have an iphone 2G running 3.0 and push works for me same with mms.

thats where i was born! but live in the states now.

Jtizzle it’s because apple changed the folder name and someone has yet to break so we stuck with this sucky keyboard although se have known work also u can try to find manual way using cut and paste that takes a long time though

Hi, me too facing the same problem..after copying the contacts backup to iphone, it do not show anything at all, but SMS backup gave all my old messages…added to this itunes is not able to sync contacts saying, iphone rejected the sync..really very strange problem i must say

Thanks from Canada bro made the iPhone even better

Yeah thanks guys I was just about to update mine

Thanx for all the hard work from Mexico!!! You work wonders for our iphones!!?

I installed the big boss fantasy pack through ICY and both times my phone locked up and had to be restored each time.

Thanks to Big Boss! T-Mobile (Austrian Version) unlocked and jailbroken! Everything’s fine, but how can I save back my Messages and Contacts? When I tried that with WinSCP, IPhone crashed an I had to reinstall everything… Can I get those Files back on my Phone?

Canada thanks u

Dont back up your stuff using ssh to back up things in the /var/mobile/Library/******

After setting up as new phone i SSH’d them back into my phone, I couldnt use Mobile Phone.app, due to contacts couldnot SMS anyone, or change anything in the notes!

I had to restore to previous back up just to prevent losing all my data!

I may be wrong but there must be a permissions issue here!?

PS also if your going to use this guide back up your pictures otherwise you will lose them

Hey thx from another wisconsinite

Anonymous download iTunes again then download sharepod which Will transfer all your stuff from your iPod to iTunes this might solve the problem

I have never had my phone working sins I bought it 5 months a go.from la.can you help me please.russ clayton.

To free up space on system partition, just use the script provided by cydia. From terminal: root alpine
./use/libexec/cydia/free.sh and ./use/libexec/cydia/space.sh
sv

Hmmm Alfa maybe if you backed up everything on to your pc not with iTunes then deleted everything and fixed like when u took your phone out of the box download iTunes again hopefully ur iPod will then work with it and then you cam transfer your stuff make sure you scan that though to check for problems hopefully this will work!

I updated to 3.0 on itunes, then got the redsnow firmware, updated and thought everything went great until I tried opening up Cydia. It opens for a second or two then goes back to the main (home) screen. Any suggestions out there? Thx!

Thanks.

I used PwnageTool 3.0 last night and everything went well. Today I used my iPhone and played with some of the new stuff. When I got home, I plugged in to my iMac and and updated Cydia and downloaded Snapture. After awhile, I noticed that the pineapple was on screen and I thought nothing of it. It has been on screen for about 3 hours now and the only way to turn it off is to press Home and Power at the same time. Does anyone know what may have happened? Does anyone know what I can or should do to fix it? I tried to redo the JB but Pwnage has stopped at the “Connect device to USB” screen and all that moves is the spinning wheel of death, harbinger of great evil. I can’t even exit out of Pwnage, now.

try full restore in dfu mode with itunes.
and try to use redsnow unstead of pwnage to jailbreak it…

Don’t know what I did right but I did it! I held the power and home button together until the pineapple went off. I continued to hold the two buttons because I didn’t really have anything else to do. After a few seconds, the restore image came up. I started iTunes and Voila! Success! iTunes “saw” the phone and I started the restore. My phone is back and I hope it doesn’t go through that shit again.

thanks from dutchstreetdog http://www.sexshopscheveningen.nl you are the master

Goddamnit. Every time I try to access Cydia my phone goes to shit and I have to restore. The first two times it happened I was dl Snapture. The last time I was trying to upgrade three files. Every time, something locks my phone. I thought I had done the jb correctly because everything was working afterwards. Now, I am afraid to do anything with the phone after a restore. When I just select Restore in iTunes I get a window that says Are you sure you want to restore the iPhone to it’s factory settings? All of your media and other data will be erased and the newest version of the iPhone software will be installed. Usually I have selected option and clicked restore. Will I brick the phone if I do the restore and update or should I just do the option restore method?

What about Installous(mobile installation patch) for the new 3.0.1 UPDATE

Hi biggboss , gray from holland, but I’ve got a question, so I downloaded and upgraded to 3.0.1 but, I can’t see any visa on YouTube my bar on the top keeps dissapearing after a minor iPhone lag, could you pox help me out, oh and my custom keyboard and stuff don’t work either( these are from icy) p.s could you do something about the endless scrolling to reply? :p thanks!

I have a really big question and I really need suggestions. I have a jailbroken iPhone with the 2.2.1 software on it. My iPhone is jailbroken with a turbo sim card. I’m reading these comments and I am getting confused. I here if yu update using iTunes. Your phone will be permanetly locked. That I should update to 3.0. If I update it to 3.0, can I jailbrake it again?

Hello friends. Now is a new jailbreak blackra1n is ready for iPhone 3GS, 3G and touch, 2G, etc. Not necessary downgrade more it works 3.1 and 3.1.2 I’m happy now friends jejeje

Note: Only works (windows xp and vista). The install is very easy only 8 second and ready to go.

Thanks for all your hard work. From Gainesville, Florida

Hi.. I asked this question about a year ago but got no reply.. For the record, I know absolutely nothing about jailbreaking and all that tech stuff.. When i got my iphone, it already had cydia on it and it’s the old iphone with 1.1.4 software version.. So, i opened up cydia and it said something about updating so i did and from that moment, whenever i open cydia, the program doesn’t work. The icon is just there but isn’t working.. i know I’ve done something i shouldn’t have but please please please how do I undo it?

Do I need quickpwn or pwnage to update from ver 3.0 to 3.12? When I click on restore in iTunes it states all my media and other data will be erased ? Is this the case??

Dami it is tethered jailbroken so you need to hook up your device and run the jailbreak program every time u want to use it

anonous u just download black rain and run it

Hi dude ,
When i did jailbreak, after that i installed one thing from cydia , my itouch doesnt do anything.I dun know what happen? pls tell me .I lost happinest within 5 mins.

hey,

i have the same problem with “one or more items have special permissions and cannot be copied… blahblah”. i have no answer yet as i have only proceeded as far as continuing to copy it to the HD. i let elle49 know if anything turns out. as far as i have read, pwn has/had (i will some further confirmation to whether this issue has been resolved) a problem with OS X, PPC. pwn only works for intel based machines. can’t say that i’m happy with that to be honest.

The reason i haven’t found out if pwnage crashes or not is because i’m trying to find out the correct instructions for upgrading the iphone which has already been BJ and unlocked.

so basically i qikpwn’d my phone earlier this year from o2 contract. To tell you the truth i’m still trying to convince myself of the upgrade’s worth. all the features that have been released with 3.0 i was already using on 2.2.1. i think there noticeable speed difference’s with the upgrade and i don’t really want to left behind, just in case it causes problem later on.

- so could any confirm what to do when your phone is already JB’d and unlocked, to get it to the latest update
- i have fuzzyband , and although i was on BL 06.04 the hack apparently flashed perfectly fine.
- from my current understanding if i DL ultrasn0w, i can upgrade to 3.0 and then pwn to 3.1.2 from that point onward
- could you put an answer to whether the performance is or isn’t improved
- generally, the mian reason for this especially as i’m 2.2.1, and i should bring my phone FW indate with all changes as they happen. so not to leave my phone buried in some shadow’d OS age that cannot be repaired or retrieved.
- have improvements been made to pwn to work with PPC, 10.4.+, or is the work round still ultrasn0w and then pwn?

help appreciated
nocturn

Tenso

hey earl,

i think its just the method, cause there’s been so many deferent means to the same goal its got a little confusion.

before i go a head i need to clear up a few things, forgive for the hesitation. blksn0w/rain was constructed for pc to achieve 3.1.2. so the above is nea good for me, but thank you for the response.

i just got ipsw for 3.0 and from what i have read this is what i’m meant to do but i want some confirmation before i go head;

- restore via itunes (via option+click, select 3.0FW)
- pwn via 3.1.4 > to get phone to 3.1.2FW – JB
(now my phones already BJ’d and unlocked. is this process any different due to that)
- unlock phone via mean of ultrasn0w
(now this is one of those cloudy areas, as replies indicate that it Ultra’ has both worked and failed. is there a confirmed mean to gain unlock?)

its not like i need the facility but i think it best to keep on track with the hack for when i do feel the need. i don’t really want to not have the ability to unlock taken away, hence me upgrading in the first place.

Ovovivicjcjfifiofovi

Well if nocturn if your unlocked with ultrasnow
you don’t really need to upgrade because you’ll lose the unlock

Big thanks from UAE
nice work:))

Hi, I have unlocked my iPhone from UK in Brazil, but the batery now finishes extremely fast, less than 24hours on stand by. Is there anything I could do? Please let me know. Many thanks!, Fabio

yes

I suggest if you are on 3.0.1 with a gs then you should stay there because there are still some bugs with the new firmware. And if you are going to update your 3g then use blacksnow to keep it unlocked and blackra1n will provide both the jailbreak and the unlock so Amy there is no need to update yet and anyone else can use the above site. 3.1.2 doesn’t give you special powers so it’s not a must do thing yet so injoy unlocks and jailbreaks for 3g, iPod touch 1st and 2nd gens untethered. Thanxs for reading.

Wow

Tnx from Israel as well

ryan yes just back up everything in itunes and apt backup

I have an error popping up something about a header not found and it want let me do anything how do I fix this problem

so it worked for you

I would have liked to know the answer too. I just paid the apple bastards though for my BRAND NEW ipud. Grrrr.

A little more info on this – I read on another web site where I guy said to disable the USB 2.0 controller in windows device manager.

So I did that, and of course now all my USB ports are 1.1 and working slower, but now iPhoneBrowser DOES work and I restored my contacts etc just fine. I am pretty sure iTunes will sync now also, but slowly.

So the problem has something to do with the USB 2.0 being unstable with iPhone version 3.0.1 release???? Is that possible?

Any ideas? I may see if windows update has a new driver for the USB 2.0 controller.

thanks.

Hey

boy I’ve learned a lot (I think) in the past few days…

seems like the 2.2.1 to 3.0.1 restore trashed my cellular data APN settings, then when a push app got turned on, the phone went nuts. lots of folks had the same thing happen.

getting the push apps off was a big start. then I got a plist editor and edited the carrierbundle carrier.plist file to turn the ability to access the Cellular Data Settings back on, and fixed the APN settings, now edge works fine, and the phone does not go quite so crazy if a push app gets enabled, although they don’t work yet because it is a havtivated phone.

so I need a UDID to make the push work – and that is a big deal on a hacktivated phone. apparently you need a clean phone to request a unique set of certificates on, then you copy those to the hacktivated phone, then you have to go back to the clean phone and get it another set of clean certificates. what a hassle!

sorry to take up all the bandwidth here but as I find all these things out, I just wanted to share them. the info on this stuff is all over the place… some bogus, some good…

did u try a different cable?

My cydia Manage has nothing there everything is gone acept cydia home page please help me..

From the Americas too!

i don’t think u can

Go to felixbruns.com and select ipod/iPhone firmware and download the 3gs 3.1.2 and when that’s done plug in ur iPhone and hold shift(windows)or option(mac) and click update and select the file u downloaded. Then go to blackra1n.com and click windows/mac and “make it ra1n”!

I only can …with you in French

Hi

I’ve had iPhone 3G for about 8 months jb and unlocked from 02 uk network and now using it on Vodafone carrier. I’m using 3.0.1

question – can I update firmware ?
Or now that Vodafone now won shared contract to supply and sell iPhone, is it possible to just do factory reset I.e will my actual carrier enable my sim to work? Or will it be locked to 02, the original carrier?

Many thanks in advance and well done with all yr work and effort

Huge thanks from Florida!

@Nikola:
To my knowledge, you need to install atleast 1 app from iTunes App Store before the other installed apps will show.

Will restoring an ipod touch totally get rid of any cydia apps anyway? (I mean a complete restore)

10) Make sure you do not “update” to 3.0 but you “restore” to 3.0. An “update” will mean you lose all your space where your jailbreak apps were installed. The files will still be present but no longer available so you just out on the disk space. Restore solves this problem.

I DID EXACTLY THIS – HELP?
AFTER INSTALLING 4.0 I RESTORED MY IPOD, DOES THIS MEAN THE CYDIA APPS WERE DELETED?

use a aptbacukup

if u want to

Thanks a lot.

cydia

My question is.. How can I upgrade to os 4.1 without loosing unlock and cydia apps? Pls help

If I recall correct, there is no jailbreak (therefore no unlock) available for 4.1 at this moment. So your best bet would be to go with 4.0.1 for now.

I’m not sure if you should use the ‘update’ from iTunes but ‘restore’. Be sure to check if you have SHSH on Cydia in case if you need to go back to old version. Wait for a solid answer from an expert before doing this. Sorry I can’t be of more help as I too am waiting for some answers to update mine :)

Thanx in advance

Many thanks from AZ

if you have a 8gig then you cant

Apple are not signing 4.0.1 anymore so it won’t allow the upgrade to that firmware. You can only do it if you have previously jailbroken your iphone and stored the SHSH on the Saurik servers.

Why can’t I get mine to work?

yes restore to the firmware and jailbreak again

How? I only get the option to update to 4.0.2 thax again

download firmware 4.0.1

Sorry 4 being so clueless guys but is there a jailbreak 4 firmware 4.1??

Earl why does iTunes ask to upgrade to 4.1? And how do you jailbreak that firmware?

they want you on the newest firmware which there is no jailbreak for download firmware 4.0.1 and restore to it in itunes then download the jailbreak for 4.0.1

Thanks from Oregon/USA!! Like seven people I’m my class are jailbroken and big fans of Cydia

download the firmware and restore to it make sure you have cydia apps backed with something such as apt backup then download the jailbreak for you and use it

you have to have your SHSH blobs backed up otherwise you’ll have to update to 4.3.3. And if your trying to preserve your baseband for an unlock then you’ll need to either use Pwnage tool (Mac) or Snowbreeze (windows) to create a custon IPSW
