The Info

Last night, an ex dev team member codenamed “geohot” released the first ever iPhone 3GS jailbreak. This jailbreak will only work on the iPhone 3GS running 3.0. Unlike the official redsn0w jailbreak for the other iPhones and iTouchs, this jailbreak doesn’t hacktivate your iPhone, so you must at least have access to an official SIM card. After jailbreaking, you should be able to run ultrasn0w and unlock your iPhone 3GS and use it on any carrier.

The Info:

The other day the iPhone dev team released redsn0w version 0.7 for the Mac. Redsn0w is a program that was originally created to overcome the change in the iTouch 2g’s hardware that prevented the QuckPwn or PwnageTool from being able to jailbreak the iTouch 2g. The dev team has now taken this amazing tool and made it work on the iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iTouch 1g, and iTouch 2g and it can even unlock the iPhone 2G! They’ve also given it a GUI (previously, it was a command line only tool). Follow the direction below to jailbreak all four iDevices (the iPhone 3GS isn’t supported… Yet) and unlock the iPhone 2G.

The Info:

Ok. You have a iTouch 2g and you want to jailbreak it. The first thing you need to know is that the process to jailbreak it is not the same as jailbreaking the iPhone 2G, 3G, and iTouch 1g. On a Mac, you have to use a command line program to jailbreak it. Don’t worry, thought. Even if you never used Terminal, or even if you’ve never heard of Terminal, its still very easy and almost anyone can do it.

The Info:

Alright, so you’ve decided you want to jailbreak your iPhone/iTouch on your Mac using QuickPwn. Here are the advantages and disadvantages to this method:

Advantages:

1. You don’t have to restore your iPhone, meaning that you don’t lose any data on it.
2. Its a considerably faster process
