1) make sure you have openSSH installed on your phone

2) make sure it is enabled (install SBsettings from cydia for easy toggle)

3) if you are trying to SSH via wifi it should work fine, if you are using USB Cable make sure you use the itunnel command found in the post in my sig.


lemme know if this worked.

EDIT: If there are no alternatives, could i borrow someones sim card and temporarily pop it in and run the spirit jb?

that is kinda annoying about spirit.

you can use ANY sim card just to activate it, so yeah go for it, put in the SIM plug into iTunes, "activate" it and use spirit.

Otherwise you can download the 3.1.2 IPSW and flash that by holding shift and pressing update in iTunes, then use blackra1n without having to activate it.

but honestly it would be easier to just stick a random sim into it and activate it in like one minute then use spirit

thanks orangekid, that was simple. i just popped in a sim card and ran spiritjb and it worked perfect. and super quick. now i gotta wait for a ios4 jb for 3gs. :)

good job bro, no problems!

are you jailbroken on 3.1.3?

Also, do you have a mac?

OK, I updated the first post on JB an iPhone 3G to iOS4, but for the 3GS there are still too many bugs and complications, but the tools will be released VERY soon, so I will update as soon as they come out, stick with 3.1.3 for now.

in the first post u refer to a baseband 5.13.04 isnt that the one found in iOS4?

Does that mean that either and iphone 3G or 3Gs can be updated to iOS4 and still be unlocked to be used on any carrier?

yes :)

I also have instructions to JB iOS4 on an iPhone 3G,

the 3GS Jailbreak is buggy and complicated and can't even be done if you haven't jailbroken it before with PwnageTool as of right now, but give it a couple days I'll have a tutorial up for the 3GS too,

which also means full unlock for iPhone 4 VERY soon once they get the Jailbreak working for it 100%

which means, don't update to iOS 4 yet if you have a 3GS and need an unlock because they are still ironing out the Jailbreak programs for it, on 3G you're fine though, full jailbreak for iOS 4 and full unlock for the new baseband.

well i am purchasing this 3GS from someone i know and i am pretty sure they have never jailbroken or unlocked it ever. It is running 3.1.3 which now i understand can be unlocked but when i saw that baseband there i wanted to know if i can update to iOS4 and still be unlocked to use with any carrier.

Thank you very much for your fast response it is much appreciated :)

go ahead and buy the phone, use Spirit to Jailbreak and unlock the 5.12.01 baseband like shown,

in less than a week I will have an easy way to jailbreak iOS 4 on the 3GS, then you can unlock the 5.13.04 baseband as well.

I am not buying this for myself tho but as a gift. so do I need a sim card installed to do any of this jailbreaking or unlocking?

also once it is unlocked that means it can be used on any GSM carrier anywhere in the world...right?

For instance in the Dominican Republic on Orange Mobile.

To Jailbreak iOS 4.0 on an iPhone 3G (with multitasking support) do this: (also works on iPod touch 1st and 2nd generation)

1) Make sure you have iTunes 9.2 downloaded and installed.

2) Download the iOS 4 for iPhone 3G IPSW file from here

3) update your iPhone 3G to iOS 4 by opening iTunes, holding shift and pressing update then pointing towards the IPSW file you just downloaded.

4) Download redsn0w 0.9.5b5-3 for windows here, or for Mac here

5) Start up redsn0w and aim it at the IPSW file you downloaded and used to update on #3.

6) Now hit install cydia and click on next

7) Now before continuing, turn OFF your device and make sure it is plugged into your computer via USB cable (it tells you on screen to do this too), then hit next

8) Follow the on-screen instructions on going into recovery, and wait while redsn0w jailbreaks your device for you. After-wards you will see you now have a Jailbroken iPhone.

note: if you open Cydia and it is just a white screen, go to Sources > edit > add and add the repo http://apt.saurik.com/cydia-3.7 then restart cydia and you should be good to go. For unlocking on any baseband see below.

Yeah sorry, that is firmware specific to the 3G, I will add DL links to the iPod ipsw later.
