Hii frnds,

i am naive to unlocking and JB, can i get some help in unlocking my iphone 3gs 3.1.3 with baseband 5.12.01. I was able to install cydia in my IP...
the model i have is MC131KS....
thanx in advance....

The Software Unlock is not released yet for i3Gs newbootrom w/ basebande 5.12.01... But, if you ever upload your ECID to saurik server, it is possible to downgrade to 3.1.2 via saurik server....
 
just youtube it

youtube.com has a plethora of information for everything jailbreaking. Go there before you go anywhere else.
 
I have my iphone updated to 5.13.01 baseband.. Gonna take it in and try to get a refurbished one.. My reason for a new phone is dirt under the screen. They shield just give me a new one. Then i can unlock it and sell on eBay for 600 bucks.

How will you unlock it ? Currently no unlock for 3.1.3 firmware (5.12.xx baseband)

Perhaps in mid June.
 
and if you do take it to apple

If you take it to apple to get a refurbed one because of dirt under the screen, they'll probably give you an iPhone with the new bootrom. It's never guarenteed which bootrom they will give you.
 
They didn't even give me a refurbed one. The just replaced the display unit. She gave me a brand new piece of glass. Haha. I guess I'm stuck on 5.13.01..
 
can i upgrade to iphone os 4.0 beta 3 from iphone os 3.1.3 new bootrom. And if i upgrade will there be an unlock for bootrom 5.13.01 or the unlock would be released for 5.12.01 in June most probably.

Back! and asking as inane questions as before.
How are we meant to know?
You don't need 4.0 (its still BETA!!! ffs), but if you are a developer i hope i am never unfortunate enough to load one of your apps onto my phone... for fear of explosion.

inane, not insane, and no, i don't think you have ever made yourself particularly clear.

You also don't take part in comprehensible dialogue with other users and seem to ask the same questions again and again.

You have ample knowledge of reliable dev team sources and are certainly not a 'newb', so i am constantly aghast at your unwillingness to take on the facts that are scattered all over this forum(especially this thread).

ok whatever you say so. I hope my next question wont dissappoint you tell me how to get past activation screen without AT&T sim after official restore
 
There is no way yet to activate your 3GS (New Bootloader) without an At&T sim.

If you have an older bootloader, use sn0wbreeze or other pawnage tool to jailbreak it, which will activate it as well.

Or is there any software to activate it???????

search on google to download spirit jailbreak and download the jailbreak tool.Just run the exe and its done your iphone would be jailbroken in 1 or 2 minutes
 
I am on a jailbroken iphone on 3.1.2 (7D11) firmware on 3GS, baseband is 05.11.07
Recently i have been facing lot of call drops. Is it cos of defective custom firmware?
Apart from that, what is next for me? Is it safe for me to upgrade to 3.1.1 or OS4 (Beta).
I've heard 3.1.3 is quite stable, anyways i can upgrade safely.
Please provide a good tutorial for windows for my scenario.

Holyindian,

Don't upgrade to OS4 just yet, it's not in Release stage yet, so there's really no point in upgrading to that, plus you will get a lot of error with Apps and bugs.

3.1.3 is untethered now, and very reliable, this site offers a step by step tutorial and a jailbreak bulletin board for questions.

Hope this helps.

Pako :apple:
 
I have a quick question. I have an iPhone 3G running 3.1.3 and will be upgrading to iPhone 4 soon. Does my 3G still need to be officially activated to do the Spirit JB? Or, can I switch to the iPhone 4 first, activate it, then run Spirit on my old (deactivated) 3G?

I want to do this so I can eventually unlock my 3G so I can use it internationally.

you have to activate your 3g first in order to jailbreak i had the same problem on my 3gs when i restored then i bought an ATT sim to activate

i didnt make it past the frist few lines...

can you type this up again in english?
 
You'll never brick your phone if...

you know how to put your phone into DFU mode, or recovery mode. And don't install any stupid things from cydia. Research what you want to install first and see if it's caused problems with people. God this thread is getting OOOOOOOOLLDDD!!!

You can still sync your JB's iPhone with iTunes and make sure that your iPhone is already installed w/ AppSync 3.1 from repo hackulous...
