Jailbreak for iPhone 3GS & iPod touch 3G on V3.1.2 out! (blackra1n)

blackra1n

Blackrain from Geohot that we were waiting for is officially out for windows now at Blackra1n.com and this would jailbreak your iPod touch 3G or iPhone 3GS with ease. A mac version can be expected soon. The biggest cheer here is for the iPod touch 3G users since the 3GS users still have to wait for an ultrasn0w upgrade to switch carriers. But the goodness of Cydia is not bad to have :) {Update: If you are upgrading the firmware using iTunes, Ultrasn0w might not work for you in future}

The pwnage tool from Dev team currently supports firmware v3.1, though with some ifs and buts. Though pwnage 3.1.3 saves you the goodness of unlocking in some cases with your 3GS.

Please be careful of the vendor that goes under http://www.3giphoneunlock.com/, they are a fraudulent set up. Once you pay them the fee to download their software along with a digital copy to be stored for one year by a Company called SWReg, niether of them are reachable and you have poured your 30 bucks down the tube.

Ishfaq Ali 10.14.09 at 12:02 am

Thanks for letting us know about the fraud website.

How come when i jail broke it
i hav to use that black rain thing again cuz it keep on sayin i hav to reconect to itunes from ipod everytime i turn on my ipod. Can you help with this problem?

Carlo 11.04.09 at 3:50 am

Andy, that happened to me too, apparently for the new ipod touch 3g you cannot turn your ipod off or else it will always say that, so each time your done with it you have to just lock your ipod and not turn it off, and hope your battery doesn’t die or else you would have to do it all over again

Dinyar Mulla-Feroze 11.09.09 at 6:57 pm

I unlocked my iPhone 3Gs v 3.1.2 using the paid service of iPhone unlock UK but since then my You Tube does not work. Any suggestions?

ginno 11.19.09 at 10:20 pm

Ishfaq 12.26.09 at 11:47 am

I had the same issue, when I was trying to jailbreak. Make sure when ur running Blackra1n on Windows PC ur logged in to the Admin User.

when do they plan on fixing the itouch 3g problem

Ro$$ 02.22.10 at 1:38 am

hey if ur ipod shows the ipod signal once u turn it off after jailbreaking it, heres a good idea to fix it, once youve downloaded cydia from blackra1n delete blackra1n, then when u download installous or anything else u use delete cydia, try it and tell me if it works
