Jailbreak of iPhone 3GS on iPhone Firmware 3.1 is Successful

By Taimur Asad | October 2nd, 2009

The infamous iPhone Dev-Team has finally managed to jailbreak iPhone 3GS running on iPhone firmware 3.1. A member from the Dev-Team confirmed the news by posting an update on twitter confirming the jailbreak as successful.

3gs 3.0 pwned->3.1 pwned. Props to Musclenerd, Wizdaz and thanks Bumble-Bee & ToddJG for testing. tinyurl.com/y8sr4p3 tinyurl.com/y8z277l

The screenshot posted below from iPhone 3GS clearly shows firmware 3.1 (7C144) running on the older Modem Firmware (Baseband) version 04.26.08.

A new version of PwnageTool along with ultrasn0w can now be expected shortly which will have full support to jailbreak and unlock iPhone 3GS running on firmware 3.1. A complete step-by-step tutorial on how to jailbreak and unlock iPhone 3GS running on firmware 3.1 will be posted here as soon as the new tools are out.

Oh, best news ever!
Jon

Wait, does that mean there is a good chance that we will soon also be able to unlock an iPhone that's already running on 3.1 with the upgraded baseband?

Great job! Does this mean that we can expect to be able to jailbreak/unlock the iphone 3G running 3.1 (and downgrading 5.11.07 firmware)?

GREAT! *MORE* waiting involved isn't necessary “GOOD” or “GREAT” news even. I hate it when people just tell you something that sounds “GOOD”, but then not really. I.E, there is a new jailbreak out for the iphone 3gs, however you will have to wait til when it's been completely figured out by the Dev team. Why don't Taimur Asad just shut-up until, the actual jailbreak has been released, then he can post it up and tell us that it's here, and not it's going to be here but you're going to have to wait some more. That's not good news, that's not even NEWS.

It's definitely NEWS. Up until now, people were freaking out because they weren't even sure they would find an exploit to enable a jailbreak. I've waited this long and I'm happy to wait another day or two, at least now I KNOW it's coming.

Just shut your mouth and wait like everyone else you selfish bastard.

what about iPhone 3G?
clevis

YEah right good news, but will Pwnage tool be available in windows, if not windows users are all doomed or pwned by this tool!
Chris

this is really going to hurt many many people, but accoring to his newest tweet, thus jailbreak only works for those select few who are able to downgrade to 3.0. If you did not save your ecid with cydia, like myself, you are ONCE AGAIN out of luck here
mohamed khalil

that is just stupid of u, bec now i know that i could unlock my iphone again and i will just hav to wait alittle bit, others said that it could never be unlocked again but that guy said that there be an unlock soon soo we feel good and all we have to do is just wait.

When will it be available for us to use? Can it unlock the iPhone 3G S with the modem firmware 05.11.07?

THANKS! =D
tony

dev team is saying it is for users that are already jail broken on 3.0 or 3.0.1 they will be able to upgrade to 3.1 preserving their jailbreak and preserving the old baseband from my understanding this is not a jailbreak for 3gs devices that are new out of the box with 3.1 or users that upgraded to 3.1 and did not have their ecid shsh on file for 3.0 or 3.0.1 through cydia….hopefully im wrong i just bought a 3gs on the 17th and it came with 3.1 🙁 give me a break apple your updates suck half the time don't force users to upgrade until they are proven (jailbroken lol)!!!!
FallsGuy

On behalf of all the technically challenged iphone 3GS users around the world, I'd like to thank the dev team for their brilliant work jailbreaking our phones. I accidentally upgraded and have been pissed about it for the past two weeks. I had my ID on file with the dev team but wasn't able to downgrade even after altering apple's ip address to the dev teams. I await your new jailbreak with thanks.
kees

Great news!!! but does it also apply to the Ipod 3rd generation…??

WOOOOT. Love the Dev-team. Props to them.

INACCURATE! The tweet in question refers to upgrading an already jailbroken iphone 3.0 to 3.1. This is clarified in various direct messages:

@Taucheranzug sorry it won't cover people stuck at 3.1 without their signed files 🙁 Though that's high on the list (but not for unlock).
