iPhone OS 3.1 Goes Live - Do Not Update!
Comments

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.

if you buy it NOW you won't be able to because the developers of cydia icy haven't realeased the jealbreak for it.

Sorry about the post below, I thought it would post correctly, visit http://blog.crazycraven.org/2009/09/mms-is-now-working-on-iphones/

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...

where can i download the ATT_US.ipcc file?

http://blog.crazycraven.org/2009/09/mms-is-now-working-on-iphones/ The urls work on my blog.

So i tested this and am getting an error message when trying to install the ipcc file

What error? It should just upload to your phone...

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.

Should there be any problem if I buy iphone 3gs now? With this upgrade to 3.1, are they really jailbreakable?

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

can u be more clearier than "unjam"... that doesnt help...

The phone was stuck on the apple logo swod.

were u the one u told me this wasnt possible yet.... did you test this???

yeah it was me but now you can. :D

i didnt test it because i got jb and unlock. if i do test it i will loose my unlock iphone 3gs. ;)

How long has it taken in the past for a jailbreak to be worked out by the dev?

De un le poste date de 11 mois.Ils ont demande9 des donaniots via LEURS twitters pas celui de la dev pour financer 3 iPhone 3G S pour le travail de9je0 accompli et pour sortir le JB du 3G S plus tf4t.Je ne poste pas n importe quoi lolIls ont refuse9 1500$ de donation sur leur compte paypal DEV

Hi, I was stupid enough to blindly upgrade to 3.1 from 3.0.1. Lost tethering. Can I go back to 3.0.1??

No, you can not go back. For now, you are stuck. Your best (and only) bet is to wait until the dev-team gets a jailbreak for you. Sorry.

damn, I downloaded the new Update on my 2G! and my entire unlock went down. Insert a valid SIM! I really do suck. What can I do gentlemen? Need my iPhone for tomorrow. Sometimes couriousity sucks.

it's been what, 2 years now, and people still haven't learned not to update their iphone until the proper jb tools are available. you bring all the problems on to yourself.

Wrong Mister. Since 3.0 every update can destroy your unlock. But not the 2.x Updates!! Fail

ur pretty much fucke* the update replaces your baseband which cannot be downgraded. and since the basebase is new in this firmware the old 3.0/3.0.1 firmware wont support this new baseband. you pretty much are stuck with a phone you cannot jailbreak or unlock till dev team release new tools.

You are out of luck until the Dev Team create an UNLOCK for it. Sorry dude. Curiosity killed the cat.

Did you eat scat? Of course I screwed it. But thank iClearified, I did a unlock again. Back to 3.0. So cool down you scat eaters. And you are right. Couriousity screwed it. C'est la vous fils des putes :D

How did you get back 3.0?

@Phil. Very simple. Just follow the tutorials here from this very site. I used the RedSnow Tutrial. Just choose your iPhone and which Unlock/JailSoftware (RedSnow or the other one). Follow instructions and voila. Back to 3.0 Tipp: The link there for the basebad (BL 3.9) doesn't work. Just google it and download it. Best of luck my friend.

So I currently own a iPhone 3GS, jailbroken, NO ULTRASN0W (unlock). I plan on stayin with crappy AT&T so i have no need to unlock using ultrasn0w. My question is, if i update to Firmware 3.1, can i still JAILBREAK. I understand since my baseband will update i would loose the unlock if i had it. But since i dont care about that and only interested in the JAILBREAK. Am I safe to jailbreak only right now? Or do i have to wait for the latest version of redsn0w to be released. Thanks everyone.

You need to wait a new Ultrasn0w for make jailbreaking again. Regards,

i think you mean redsn0w for jailbreaking. no, do not upgrade until the dev team says you can. does this even need to be asked?

No! You must wait for the Dev Team to release a new jailbreak for it. So Do not update yet.

I just wanted to make sure that was the case. Everything i read says if you do update your going to loose your UNLOCK. They dont say you loose the JAILBREAK. Since i dont care about unlock i wasnt sure if i could still jailbreak. I appreciate the info.

You will loose your jailbreak.

I have 3 iphones: 2G, 3G, and 3GS. I tried to ungrade my 3G with 3.1, then I lose Jailbreak (Cydia). If u want to keep Cydia, wait for new Redsn0w.

Ok. Thanks. But can I download iTunes 9 anyway? Even I am running iPhone OS 3.0.1.

no problem, just don't update to 3.1

Thanks Deijmaster.

I think it's stupid that Apple is making ipod owners pay for the small firmware updates, especially when its mostly bug fixes.

Well if people were smart they wouldn't pay for it... just torrent it! Google it! Youtube it! Screw Apple, As for Apps just get those all free also!

you can blame US accounting laws for that.

You may want to adjust your title so that it says "unlocked phones and jailbroken phones do not update". your title is misleading as saying that any one shouldn't update to 3.1

To be fair, anyone not doing either of these would probably not be here,

Not true. Im a daily user, and I have a 3GS thats not jailbroken. I Jailbroke my 3g, but the 3GS has all the features i was jailbreaking for in the first place. And I dont mind paying for apps that are worth while.
