Today's v1.2.3 ultrasn0w update goes along with PwnageTool and redsn0w updates for iOS 4.3.3 (compatibility only, no new BB support)

I think I'm finally going to bring my ipad up to date.

666MB once again - I'm holding off...

Think I will wait on the reviews on this one before I switch. 4.3.2 is running very solid for me.

Any news regarding the iPhone 4 and BB 1.59.00 with this jailbreak?

I don't need to install Ultrasn0w right now, but I am hoping they fixed the 1 signal bar issue.

 

[Applejuiced]

Sweet.

What is this custom firmware you have to download?

 

[hokiepokie07]

This doesn't work for the Verizon iPhone, right?

They waited and released this AND ultrasn0w at the same time. Should be all good to go.

iclarified.com will give you step by step directions

The 4.3.3 untether works on all devices that actually support 4.3.3 except for the iPad2:

iPhone3GS
iPhone4 (GSM)
iPod touch 3G
iPod touch 4G
iPad1
AppleTV2G (v4.3 8F202)

Think that clears it up.

Thanks. Bummer, I can't find the 4.2.8 jailbreak for a Mac ...

 

[rgarjr]

No it's not for VzW

Completely painless upgrade thanks to Pkgbakup and Dropbox. Now to see if claimed battery improvements are real

 

[forcetactic]

Does 4.3.3 still display 1 signal if you have a preserved baseband?

Please let us know, this battery issue with 4.3.1 is really bothering me for the last 2 months. If anyone else can confirm battery life improvements from 4.3.1/2 I would much appreciate it!

No doubt. I was updated and back to normal in just a few minutes.

Battery life seems better but I'll need a few days to really run it through the paces.

explain using dropbox with updating?

 

[bmwhd]

Pkgbackup has two options for storing the backup info - your local address book or Dropbox. Dropbox has the advantage of being immune to having Apple tweak the data format of the address book entries which can corrupt your backup data.

 

[WeegieMac]

Superb, you can enable multi-tasking gestures on this release.

The pinch to home screen works really well.

 

[dukebound85]

worth upgrading from an untethered 4.3.1 to this one?

 

[ChazUK]

Got and updated a 3gs just yesterday and within a day I can jailbreak it. Fantastic news.

Chaz is off to play!

I had the same problem. Found the solution in comments to the Dev Team Blog post.

I'm copying and pasting the instructions below, and it worked for me.

Check your hosts file to make sure 74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com is commented out. It's a file that the operating system uses to resolve domain names to IP addresses.

On Windows it's located at C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
On Windows 7 you might need to Right-click on Notepad and 'run-as administrator' to be able to edit the file. Then browse to C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc.

In OSX it's located at /private/etc/hosts
The best way to edit the file here is run the following from the terminal app
sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
When it asks you for your password use the same on you use to log into the system.
Add a # before the 74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
Press Control O to save, hit enter, and control X to exit the editor
