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.

Apple has announced the fix for the SMS Security Vulnerability, it’s a new firmware, version 3.0.1.

So, we are going to redo the steps you did when you upgrade to firmwares 3.0

Firstly, please make sure you have following files ready:

0) iTunes 8.2.1 (yes, Apple has new version of iTune recently.)

1.1) for iPhone 2G Firmware 3.0.1 – Click here to download
or download using iTune. (Warning! Big File 230MB.)

1.2) for iPhone 3G Firmware 3.0.1 – Click here to download
or download using iTune. (Warning! Big File 230MB.)

1.3) for iPhone 2G, Firmware 3.0 for 2G (please refer to previous post for link)

3) Wireless Access for you to get UltraSn0w (if you don’t have wireless, there is another way. I’ll try post soon.)

OK! Now you should have all the requirements ready. Let’s do it!

1) Connect your iPhone 3G into your computer.

2) Launch iTunes 8.2.1, make sure you backup your iPhone before continue next step (right click iPhone Name on the left menu and choose “Backup”).

3) iTunes will tell you there is a new version available, ask you whether you want to Update or Restore. If you haven’t download the ipsw, you may download now.

4) For those who download the ipsw yourself, Press Shift Key + Update button.
For those who download the ipsw using iTunes, just press Update button, and skip step 5.

5) You will get a dialog box which ask you to browse to the ipsw file (the firmware 3.0.1 file) you downloaded just now.

6) iTune is now start to update you iPhone with the 3.0.1 firmware, this takes ~10mins.

7) Once it done, you will get the “Connect to iTune” screen on the iphone, just like you get your iPhone on the first day.

Now, with the cable connected, launch redsn0w.exe (unzip the downloaded redsn0w zip file and you will see this file. Please ignore the version on the redsn0w screen, I just re-use old image cox lazy to re-capture, they are visually the same except different version displayed on top).

9) Browse to the Firmware 3.0 ipsw file you downloaded last time. (Yes, 3.0 ipsw, not typing mistake! Why? Because redsn0w doesn’t work for 3.0.1 yet, but point to 3.0 it works.)

10) redsn0w will ask you to turn off your iPhone before begin Jailbreak, do it by press the power button and slide to power off it.

11) Get ready for the next steps (get ready means place your finger on the power button and home button location before continue.):

a – click Next button
b – press Power button for 2 sec
c – DO NOT release Power button, + press Home button for 10 sec
d – release Power button but NOT release Home button, continue 30 sec
e – Once you iPhone rebooted and start jailbreaking, you can release the Home button.

12) The jailbreak will take ~10 mins.

The running pineapple …

running ….

still running …..

13) OK! Now you iPhone is jailbreaked. You can “Slide to Unlock” now. Er. still without ISP Network.

14) Now, go into Settings. then Wi-Fi.

15) Setup and Connect onto your Wireless Network.

16) Go to second page of your Apps list, run Cydia.

17) Cydia will close for the first time initialize, start it again.

18) in Cydia, go into Manage. Press “Sources”.

19) Add repo “repo666.ultrasn0w.com”, please note the sn0w is Zero instead of Capital O.

20) in Cydia, go into Search.

21) type in “Ultra”, Ultrasn0w will be the list.

22) download and install Ultrasn0w.

23) reboot your iPhone.

24) Once iPhone booted up, it will get connected.

25) Done! Congratulation!

You do not need to Restore you data since you are updating your iPhone this time. Your Contact, songs, SMS, … will be still there.

Have fun.
