Jailbreak 3GS - 4.0 - old bootrom - Need Help...

[fuzion11]

Apple sent me a refurb 3GS this past Tuesday, I activated the phone through iTunes to firmware 4.0...it has the old bootrom as the buildweek number is 22.

The description for sn0wbreeze says your 3gs has to be jailbroken ALREADY for this to install properly.

Since my phone isn't jailbroken right now...what are my options?

Do I have to wait for a jailbreak that will work for the phones with the new bootrom?

How can I jailbreak this thing?

3GS on 4.0 using Windows.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Unfortunately you'll have to wait. I'll be in the same boat too, I have a free 3GS arriving tomorrow from a family member, and will be keeping an eye out for upcoming jailbreak solutions too.

So does that mean we'll have to wait for the same jailbreak as the people who have the NEW bootrom??

And since you're from Canada too, check out the "Canadian iPhone thread" under the iPhone section...there is a bunch of us there. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/934099/
