Apple has released iPhone OS 3.1 which includes a number of new features; however, its important to remember NOT to update your firmware. If you update now you will likely lose your unlock and maybe even your jailbreak (iPhone 3GS). We will provide instructions once a safe upgrade path is available.
The new iPhone 3.1 firmware adds the following new features...
Genius Recommendations for Apps Get recommendations for apps you might like based on apps you’ve already downloaded.
Genius Mixes Have iTunes create up to 12 playlists based on what’s already in your library. You don’t even have to choose a sample song.
Download Ringtones Wirelessly Choose from thousands of iPhone ringtones on the iTunes Store and buy them with a tap.
Organize Apps in iTunes Use iTunes on your computer to drag apps onto virtual Home screens, then sync them to your iPhone.
AppleInsider has also posted a list of the fixes in 3.1: * Improved syncing for music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and photos * iTunes U content organization * Redeem iTunes Gift Cards, codes, and certificates in the App Store * Display available iTunes account credits in the App Store and iTunes Store * Save video from Mail and MMS into Camera Roll * Option to "Save as new clip" when trimming a video on iPhone 3GS * Better iPhone 3G Wi-Fi performance when Bluetooth is turned on * Remotely lock iPhone with a passcode via MobileMe * Use Voice Control on iPhone 3GS with Bluetooth headsets * Paste phone numbers into the keypad * Option to use Home button to turn on accessibility features on iPhone 3GS * Warn when visiting fraudulent websites in Safari (anti-phishing) * Improved Exchange calendar syncing and invitation handling * Fixes issue that cause some app icons to display incorrectly
The iPhone 3.1 update is available for free and the iPod 3.1.1 update is available for $4.95 to those who already purchased 3.0.
hey everyone...
sorry if this has been asked, but i didnt notice it anywhere....
i have a 3G, which i put onto 3.1, then downgraded to 3.0.1...got that error, jailbroke it, and it booted in.....on 3.0.1
now it doesnt connect to my phone provider, it was never unlocked or anything, and didnt need to be...but it isnt activating or something like that through itunes.....
is there a solution? im using itunes 9 by the way...
THANKS!
Guys, I have a 3GS iPhone that I could not rstore for a few weeks. Keep getting errors in ragne from #1 to 16##. the iPhone was stucked in DFUmode (iTunes cable logo). Now since the release of 3.1 iTune swas able to restore my iPhone! Although it is unlocked of course, I still feel more comfortable since it is restored and not stucked in DFU anmpre. Hopefully there wil lbe a jailbreak for 3. with yhe new baseband version soon.
Does this mean, It is risky to buy Iphone for now? I am keeping my hope that there is still a workaround but I have this impression that If I buy Iphone 3Gs NOW, I will not be able to jailbreak it ir unlock it. Please enlighten me.
1) Close iTunes (if open).
2) Go to Start then type 'Run' (not cmd, run is located C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\
Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\
3) Paste this into the run box: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1. This command allows iTunes to let you update your iPhone with the Custom IPCC file from your computer (attached in this email).
4) Download the updated AT&T carrier file from here (if you can't get the attachment from this email)
5) Open iTunes and plug in your iPhone
6) Hold shift and click "Check for Updates"
7) Select the IPCC file downloaded above and complete the update (ATT_US.ipcc) - Use the drop down box to select file types, a carrier file selection should be available.
8) Allow it to upload
9) Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings - Your phone will reboot...
10) After your phone reboots go to Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data Network: and enter the MMS Settings below
Here are the MMS settings:
Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data Network:
Only fill out the bottom settings, leave the rest as they are, empty or filled:
MMS Settings:
APN: wap.cingular
Username: wap@cingulargprs.com
Password: CINGULAR1
MMSC: mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32
MMS Max Message Size: [Blank]
MMS UA Prof URL: [Blank]
11) Restart your phone by holding power key and turning off, then turn back on and try see if the camera icon is your SMS message screen (Try send me a picture).
It takes a minute for the first time, if your message fails, follow steps 9 & 10, you will only have to input username and password upon reboot, then try send it to me again.
Those are the exact steps I used to do 3 iphone 3GS's - 1 jailbroken/ultrasn0wed and 2 regular stock AT&T phones and it worked.
If you version of iTunes doesn't allow you to use 'run' the command line I sent you, it's because you have the latest iTunes...
If anyone has an error trying to do the 'run' command, don't use CMD use 'RUN' - in Vista type run and press enter, on XP click start, then select run on the right, include the EVERYTING including " " those but not the period, if you cannot run the command you have the latest version of iTunes, you need to look at the bottom of the blog post, uninstall your current iTunes and install the one listed there, it allows the carrier update.
Still reveiving an error. When its reading the IPCC file it spits out a 1119 error.
i installed your version of itunes on a brand new machine that never had itunes. ran the command no problem. and still get error.
All I can suggest is that you search for another ATT_US.ipcc - it worked for me though, it's just AT&T 5.0 carrier update, google another one. Are you using a 3GS? Thats all I tested it on mate.
Does jailbreaking really void warranty? I heard that if a jailbroken iphone be returned to its factory state using itunes, it can qualify for a warranty
Are there really stores in US who sell iphone outright and unlocked?
If I buy now, are iphones are already loaded with 3.1 baseband?
1. Jailbreaking DOES woid the phone's warranty. 2. To get your warranty back, you can just restore or update the phone to the latest firmware. 3. There are not stores that sell them, unless you find a little private shop, or buy it on ebay, etc. 4. Buying an iPhone now will most probably have the 3.1 firmware and whatever baseband comes with it.
Lo que te pasa no tiene nada que ver con la liberacif3n sino que los me9todos de subir el firm a la 1.1.3 que hay hasta hoy no son muy buneos, y tienen varios bugs. No se como podredas arreglarlo, busca por el installer haber si encuentras algfan fix que arregle dicho problema con Youtube.
Is there another way to unjam the phone without doing the software update? Everytime i connect even in dfu mode it says i have to update my iphone. I have a iphone 3gs
