Dev-Team Update

##ICON_NAME## The Dev-Team has updated their website with info about the newest versions of ultrasn0w (unlock) and redsn0w (jailbreak). Below is a snippet of the info…you can get the full article HERE.

Last night we released updated versions of our redsn0w jailbreak and ultrasn0w carrier unlock. These versions are now compatible with the iPhone 3GS running at 3.0. Welcome aboard, 3GS owners! (The tools of course remain compatible with all of the other platforms too.) Also last night, saurik released 3GS-compatible versions of MobileSubstrate and WinterBoard, components that enable many different add-ons and themes.

We realize we upset some folks (e.g. existing 3GS owners) with our earlier announcement that we wanted to hold onto the 3GS iBoot-family hole until 3.1 was out. Our aim there was to get as many people as possible onboard (within reason of course) before revealing the hole, since Apple will fix it immediately. But all of that became moot when the purplera1n release was made, since it uses the same hole.

For those of you who already own 3GS phones, the outlook is bright. As long as you have your personalized (signed) dfu/img3 files, you’ll always be able to jailbreak (even if you slip up and install stock Apple firmware in the future). For those of you without 3GS phones, it’s a race against the clock to use this particular hole. There’s nothing we can do about that, but we will always be looking for new holes.

  1. Decided to restore to get those infamous signed files and then used this jailbreak. It worked well … BUT … with the latest version of intelliscreen, I can no longer do any setup work in the app itself. Luckily I had the xml files it uses from a manual backup, threw those in and it works, but I can’t go in the app to change anything.

    I don’t know if this is a problem with the jailbreak, or with the intelliscreen update itself.

    • Its probably Intelliscreen, its very poorly coded in many respects.

    • Yeah, people keep saying that, but it’s the only reason I jailbreak. It’s a really great app. I’ve never had major problems with it … even know it works fine, you just can’t go in to change anything … I’m happy I had my config files.

  2. If I used purplerain should I restore and use redsnow ?

    I have a question concerning this:

    “For those of you who already own 3GS phones, the outlook is bright. As long as you have your personalized (signed) dfu/img3 files, you’ll always be able to jailbreak (even if you slip up and install stock Apple firmware in the future). ”

    So, if I don’t get these files, I won’t be able to jailbreak in the future?
