planetbeing from the dev-team did a live showing of ultrasn0w on the 3GS, showing you that Cydia works perfectly and that the unlock is succesful. Great news for me as I have T-Mobile. Now I just need to get my hands on a 3GS!
When the official 3.1 beta comes up make sure you do not upgrade to it, you will lose your unlock and possibly lose it forever. Apple is closing the loophole that the dev found to make the unlock. The dev-team will release tools that will allow you to safely unlock to make sure your device stays unlocked and jailbroken
If you have any questions and you've tried ask the dev team but maybe they don't answer back you can tweet me as well. I will try to answer your question to the best of my ability. Want a quick answer? email me at irockish@hotmail.com That goes directly to my iPhone
Well I'm sure most of you already love the 3GS and all it's lovely 5 new features, but if you were a preview iPhone 3G owner or iPhone 2G and you were part of the Jailbroken community. You miss Cydia right?
Well all the prayers are answered. GeoHot, the first person to ever create a iPhone unlock, has done some snooping around and has found that the iPhone 3GS is vulnerable to a jailbreak through the same 24kpwn exploit present in the iPod Touch 2G. What does this mean? I'll let him explain, this is from his blog:
With the help of chronic, posixninja, and pod2g, I verified that it is still vulnerable to the 24kpwn exploit present in the iPod Touch 2G. This is great news for all of you. Basically, this means if someone makes a tethered jailbreak, it easily becomes untethered, because the boot chain is broken. Expect big things soon
Good news for you owners and it only took about a week as well :). Maybe next time Apple
The cat and mouse game shall continue. Follow me on twitter for any more leads to iPhone 3GS Jailbreak + Unlock
iPhone 3G Owners can now rejoice everywhere as ultrasn0w is now officially available. BIG THANK YOU goes out to the Dev-Team for all their hard work and focus on trying to get it out ASAP for us. Make sure you check their blog, and follow them on Twitter!
I'll post a vid tomorrow, joining the other million that will be up on how to unlock the iPhone, its pretty simple if you have it jailbroken just follow these instructions straight from the dev team themselves.
