awfully buggy...mine crashed a few times and went into safe mode. tried to install lockinfo when this happened.

It's not the fault of the JB. The apps on cydia was built on iOS 3.0 so it is expected that some apps and hacks on Cydia won't work.
 
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I've missed cydia since upgrading to the iphone4!

Download failed on first try due to truncated file, hit retry and jailbroke properly. Opened up cydia, downloading packages..... got the "make my life easier" question - which you should all say YES to, so that you have your sh blobs on file for future jailbreaks.
 
Twice I lost my MMS on my 3GS both times restored to a fresh 4.0.1 restore then an immediate jailbreak. For now ill have to go back to 3.1.2 to pwn my phone and then upgrade to 4.0 via pwnage tool as I was before.
 
A lot of people are reporting success with getting Facetime and MMS working after doing a fresh restore to 4.0.1, then jailbreaking, and then doing a restore from a backup.

This is what I tried.

restore to factory 4.0.1
jailbreak
restarted phone

facetime and MMS were gone.

I did a restore from backup for the heck of it. No luck.

I think you need to do a restore from a backup prior to restarting your iPhone 4.
 
I lost facetime, still have MMS, but every time I restart the phone I get this screen and have to hit restart. Then I get the apple logo screen with some green lines up top and then it works normally...minus facetime.

What it looks like to me is that it’s similar to a Spirit JB. However, instead of losing the JB when powering off or rebooting, you lose MMS and FT.
 
Enable Wallpaper and Multi-Tasking on iPhone 3G (Jailbroken with Star)
So how do I do it? ... iFile won't open for me on iOS 4. :confused:
 
Are Kirikae and Backgrounder supposed to work properly on 4.0.1?

Right now, whenever I try using Kirikae, it crashes into safemode. It also does this when I try the native OS 4 multi-tasking (double tap home button) In other words, I have no way to quick switch!
 
So what are the exact steps for jailbreaking a 3GS on 4.0? Do I just go to the site on my iPhone and just follow the instructions? Also, if I jailbreak, does that mean the phone has been unlocked as well? If not, how do I unlock it?
 
Lost MMS on iPhone 3GS 4.0.1

Also settings now crashes out when I try and load it.

Bah, looks like a restore :(
 
Getting a "Oops... File received was invalid."
Switched off wifi, and did from 3g, and it worked.


After a restore because it didnt install all the repo's.
 
Having to restore.

That's too bad. Having to restore mine as well. Lost MMS and FaceTime. Cydia wasn't behaving too well either. Lots of errors.

I agree, lots of errors updating when first opening cydia. It may be because people are slamming the server Im wondering.
 
What if I only want to unlock the phone?

Do I have to jailbreak first and then download a different program, or is it possible to simply unlock my iPhone without adding any other software to it?

I'm on an iPhone 3GS, running 4.0.1
