Iphone 3gS Jailbroken.

Well, in record time the next iDevice has been pwned. I would like to thank the Dev-Team.

24Kpwn lives on, in the iPhone 3GS!
About 5 hours ago, we were able to verify that the 24Kpwn exploit that the hybrid team used on the iPod Touch 2G is still present in the bootrom of the iPhone 3GS. That means we can apply the same sort of technique used by our current redsn0w tool to jailbreak and unlock the iPhone 3GS.

This is great news! It seems this bootrom was cut in about the August 2008 timeframe, so the unfortunate early reveal of 24Kpwn earlier this year didn’t affect the iPhone 3GS.

For our technical notes on where the 24Kpwn exploit is in the 3GS, see here (pastebin hash of it is here).

And yes, ultrasn0w will be able to be used on the iPhone 3GS for you unlockers!

Important: Apple has not given up on the cat&mouse game, and in fact there are challenging aspects of the 3GS jailbreak that aren’t in the other devices. It’ll take some time to work these into our tools, but the fundamental weaknesses are there: The bootrom is exploitable via 24Kpwn, and the baseband is exploitable via ultrasn0w. (And just like with the 3G, ultrasn0w for 3GS requires that you not update your baseband when Apple comes out with new firmware.)


Straight from the blog itself. In case you didnt know these are the guys that have jailbroken alomost, if not all the iDevices so far, Dev-Team.

Also, a small write up in engadget:

Re: Iphone 3gS Jailbroken.

I can not wait for the official jailbreak to land! I went to the dark side of the iPhone with the coming of the iPhone 3GS. *Waves bye to the old HTC Touch Pro*

And my dear lord this thing is fast. I have my PSX games rolling on it near full speed. Diablo, FF Tactics and all full playable. So freaking sweet.
