iphonePurplera1n has been updated and we’re hearing of much better success from users. There’s still no support for Winterboard but I’m sure it won’t be too long. I can’t wait!

Less flakiness in the payload
Cydia tar cleaned up
Improved logging with slightly more useful errors
New kernel patches, codesign errors gone. Props posixninja
Added vm_map +x, passed vm_check
No winterboard yet, but now that ball is in Saurik’s court :-)
Still in beta, use caution

  2. alex_dlc says

    i hope they fix this soon. i want to buy a 3gs but i dont know if i should wait until they fix the problem with the white ones. maybe if i wait, they will start comming with v3.1 and i wont be able to jailbreak. i dont know what to do

    Ok guys, I need a little help. I just jailbroke my iPhone 3GS for the first time ever using purplera1. It was very easy. But after playing around with it some, I want it gone. How do I undo the jailbreak. I already did a restore but to my surprise, cydia and freeze were still there after the restore!! Help me get this off my phone please!

    • I don’t think you did a restore. Those two apps would not be there if you did.

      Just out of curiosity, why don’t you want to keep the jailbreak. It doesn’t hurt anything and there are a few things that are nice to have. Even for SBSettings alone, I would jailbreak.

      I restored from the backup I did just before I jailbroke it. It took FOREVER to restore!! I don’t really know why I want it gone… I feel like my phone is tainted now or something. So far I’ve installed mxtube, which is really cool. Alot of the other stuff is kinda confusing to me, I have no idea what I’m doing. Maybe someone can explain to me some of the cool things worth keeping it for? Thanks.

      Ok, forget that whole trying to unjailbreak my iPhone thing. I love it! One question though: how do I get my downloaded videos from MXTube on to my computer? Thanks.

  5. Does that mean i have to restore my phone, and then use ra1n again to get the updates?

    • A lot of people were successful doing it on top of their current jailbreak. I wasn’t. It failed and I had to restore.

  6. i cant go to the purplera1n website … this is ridiculous

    really wish winterboard was working. with the features that come with the 3gs, winterboard was the only big reason for jailbreaking imo
