Please read carefully before you start to do anything to your iPhone!!!

As of now (23/06/2010), we know that:
- iPhone 2G is NOT SUPPORTED.
- iPod Touch is NOT SUPPORTED.
- iPod Touch 3G is NOT SUPPORTED.

PwnageTool 4.0 only recognizes the official IPSWs that came out on 21/06/2010. If you had developer access to the “4.0 GM” IPSWs, do not try to use those.

For iPhone 3GS:
- If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3GS with the OLD BOOTROM and you DID NOT use Spirit to jailbreak then you can create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore with your jailbroken recovery mode.
- If you have an iPhone 3GS with the NEW BOOTROM this is NOT supported by PwnageTool 4.0.

For iPhone 3G:
- If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3G at 3.1.2 (but not jailbroken with Spirit) then you should create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore from recovery mode or DFU mode.
- If you have an out of the box iPhone 3G you should restore using a PwnageTool 4.0 ipsw using DFU mode.
- If you have a Jailbroken 3.1.3 iPhone 3G it is very possible that this can fail from recovery mode, if this failure happens you will need to restore using DFU mode.
- As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on iPhone 3G (on both Windows and Mac).

IMPORTANT! Whenever you need to enter DFU mode, you will need to do so using PwnageTool.

Baseband Unlock:
- Ultrasn0w has been updated to cover all basebands from 04.26.08 onward. iPhone 3G and 3GS baseband unlockers (those who rely on ultrasn0w to make phone calls) should always be very wary to update their firmware, however our Ultrasn0w application will unlock all recent (including the current) 3GS and 3G baseband firmware versions. Once you are jailbroken using PwnageTool 4.0, install Ultrasn0w from Cydia and you’ll be unlocked.

Remember! This baseband unlock situation is rare, should you upgrade your iPhone blindly at the next iOS release please don’t expect an unlock.

Thank you.

I am not very happy to close and start another application everytime when I need to get to another application.

Now, I found a tool that make me very happy. ProSwitcher!

To understand what I mean, watch the image & video below.

Video: ProSwitcher, a tool to enable Multitasking on iPhone.

ProSwitcher enable Multitasking on iPhone, you may now launch a few applications and switch between them without closing them down before launch another. Well, the limitation of it, is that the application must able to run at the background.

It is so much easy to use this application compare to the old days backgrounder.

To install ProSwitcher:
1) Connect to WiFi or 3G connection.
2) Launch Cydia (oh yes, you need a jailbreaked set to run this).
3) Add new repo: http://booleanmagic.com/repo
4) Search for “ProSwitcher”
5) Install
6) Respring
7) You have it!

You can change the way you call up the ProSwitcher, ex: Double click Home button; Long press Home button; Slide from buttom of the screen; Slide from the side; etc (Check out Setting / ProSwitcher / Activation Methods).

Have fun!

Apple had release new firmware for iPhone 2g/3g/3gs. Which is version 3.1.3.
As of now (5th Feb 2010), there are NO WAY to unlock version 3.1.3 yet.

So beware, DO NOT Upgrade to firmware 3.1.3 !!! You may just kill your iPhone if you upgrade to 3.1.3.

Thank you.

Apple came out Firmware version 2.2.1 in Feb 2009. There are many people upgraded their iPhone 3G to this version by purposely or mistakenly, and their iPhone can never be unlocked by yellowsn0w 0.98 (still the lastest version as of today 23rd March 2009) which only work for Firmware 2.2 Baseband 2.28.00.

You are able to jailbreak your Firmware 2.2.1 iPhone 3G with QuickPwn 2.2.5-2, but it can not unlock the phone to work for your Mobile Service Provider, since Firmware 2.2.1 will also upgrade your Baseband from 2.28.00 to 2.30.03, which is not support by yellowsn0w yet. You will then have your expensive iPod…

There is another way to make the Firmware 2.2.1 Baseband 2.30.03 iPhone working with your Mobile Service Provider. By using RebelSimcard, or TurboSimcard, or XxxSimcard. But your better check properly on the version that support that. And do put in mind these solution is not a prefect solution. There are a lot of complaints on these solution.

Read it out carefully and decide your move. If you are in this situation.

Thank you for reading this post.
