The iPhone Dev-Team has successfully completed the upgrade of a jailbroken iPhone 3GS from 3.0 to 3.1 without losing the jailbreak.
CPICH confirmed the news from his twitter account.
This means that we will likely see an update to PwnageTool which will add support for creating a custom ipsw that will be used to upgrade your iPhone 3GS.
We will update our tutorials as soon as it becomes available. In the meanwhile check out the screenshots below from CPICH.

So.... for ppl who dont fully understand this... Jay... this is real, iPhone 3GS has a few different models depending on where and when you bought it. For example, my iPhone 3GS is model # MC143C. I think what they are doing (Dev group) is fantastic! I think its better for now that they are building the pwnage tool before redsn0w because there are a lot of ppl who want to upgrade but keep their unlocked status. I don't mind either way, as long as jailbreak is a possibility. At the same time, 3.0.1 is also fine with me. 3.1 doesn't have enough features to really be worth all the trouble. At least thats my opinion anyways.
But the problem is, pwnage tool is only for Mac OS X, not for windows. And does not support the ipod touch 2g/3g. redsn0w supports all of the ipods/iphones except for the 3g ipod touch and all os's.
The problem with 3.1 now is that a lot of apps coming out on the app store are starting to require 3.1 to install/use. Otherwise I'd agree there's not a lot of reason to move to 3.1.
Thats true, i noticed that too in the app store
As for pwnage tool only being available on mac, I can see the prob there cause there are more windows users using an iPhone then OSX. There is a version of OSX that works on a windows pc.. you can either install it in VMWARE or as a dual boot (so you dont loose your windows partition). I, myself have a mac, but I normally end up restoring on a pc anways.
it's better for us to wait because :
1. this new firmware doesn't provide a lot just some improvements .
2. there are many problems with this firmware even people who use the clean one and don't JB their iphones .
Hi, i am having a 2G iphone and i want to know when will it be jailbreaked for the OS 3.1 on windows. i have google searched it and most of the users who tried to jailbreak using custom files are getting errors.
I believe the guy is asking for the 3.1 jailbreak on windows not the 3.0.x.... I have a 3G and really would love to upgrade to 3.1 and jailbreak it to use the MMS and whatnot. Anyone got any idea when the windows jailbreak for 3.1 will be out?
and the modem 5.77 ???? I actually has an Iphone from factory with 3.1 and modem 5.77, so this will not work for me, beside I will continue using my SE W810, Until I can use my iphone to make calls, of course I want to use applications, but the main idea of a phone is to make calls...sooooo, then I sell it and get an Ipod touch...
Agreed, I would like to see em work on the redsnow for 3GS and 3G as that pwnage tool is somewhat flaky depending on your phone carrier but the redsnow works on everyones carrier.
That and redsnow is a little easier to use at least i find.
i have iphone 3gs jailbreak say i wanna get a fresh start like new can i update 3.1 witout updating the baseband im not saying ima do it right now saying when the jailbreak comes out.
