Every one understands that men's life is not cheap, but we require money for different stuff and not every person gets enough money. Thence to get some loan or financial loan will be a proper way out.

I took my first loan when I was very young and this aided my business a lot. Nevertheless, I need the auto loan also.

i just have a question, i have two iphone 3gs, both 3.1.2 / 05.11.07 / 51week, one i didn't touch at all, fresh from at&t, locked and not in use, the other one i did redsnow several months back, so now its tethered jailbroken and unlocked.
my question is can i use this tutorial? is the perfect unlock for these phones out yet? do i need to treat these two phones with two different methods if i want to unlock and jaibreak them perfectly? if yes what should i use? its been bothering me for months, since the untouched phone was a birthday present for my dad but i still haven't give him yet cause he doesn't know how to tethered boot it, any help?

Man, this tutorial is for unlocking the 3.1.2 and not the 3.1.3,
you can't unlock the 3.1.3 till now you can jailbreak it.
just search this site for unlocking the 3.1.3.

The only way to restore to FW 3.1.2 is if you have its SHSH stored on cydia. If not then you have no choice but to restore to FW3.1.3 resulting your phone can only be used on AT&T. Then you can jailbreak using. Currently no software is available to unlock 3.1.3.
Sorry you have the problem. Never rejailbreak a phone that was previously jailbroken with a different jailbreaking program. I guess then conflicted and your phone got frozen. Now it must be restored to 3.1.2 or 3.1.3. Restoring to 3.1.2 is only possible is your ShSH is on Cydia.

Hi -
I bought a new 3Gs in January, in Chicago. It's on 3.1.2, week 45 of 2010, BB 05.11.07, model MB715LL. Before I could start to use it Apple came out with 3.1.3. Phone hasn't been used, jailbroken, unlocked or SHSH files stored yet. I need to unlock the phone, for use in China.
Is this still possible today? If so, how ?

You can try. It may be successful. itunes will not sign FW 3.1.2 if your phone shall have any problem in jailbreaking process. I found one iphone at AT&T that had 3.1.2 fw and when I tried I failed. I had no choice but to upgrade to FW3.1.3 and then cancel my contract because I was within 30 days. I am looking for a brand new 3GS 16GB phone at a reasonable price. If you like then I can buy for $475 throgh ebay listing and paying you via paypal. Good luck. Thanks.

Go to
Program Files (x86) > Common Files > Apple > Apple Application Support
There you will see your ASL.dll
Cut your blackra1n and paste it in that folder so that blackra1n and ASL.dll are together

The best way to solve this problem is: 1. restore it usinf fw 3.1.2., then set it up as a new phone and then sync with your data and personal information. I had this probmen and it was solved using this method. GOOD LUCK

Hi everyone. blackra1n is best, but i have one BIG problem. i installes blackra1n and in iphone 3Gs downloaded only rock to unlock it, then i uninstalled blackra1n. i didn't downloaded cydia. Once again i tried to make my iphone to make it ra1n :) but no icon of blackra1n on my springboard. I have 3GS with new bootrom, and i can't restore it to 3.1.2 because itunes gives error that my device isn't eligeble for that software.
HOW to install CYDIA? Please help.
Regards.

Download firmware 3.1.2 from iclarified. Connect your phone then try restoring by pressing alt And choose the firmware 3.1.2 on your desktop. Try this a few times. You may be successful. If Not Then I do not Know. Firmware 3.1.3 can not be unlocked.

before talking about the 3.1.3, lets talk about connecting the iphone to the computer whenever it restarts or we turn it off. still no fix for that and it is driving me crazy, why? here is why,
i'm in Lebanon, and here is what i'm facing, in some places randomly i'm loosing signal, and i can't get the service back without turning off the iphone, i've tried the offline mode, and many other tweeks to get back the service without restarting but with no luck, thus whenever i'm out of home and going an all day vacation lets say and got the no service i am f.. up as if i don't have my laptop i'll be hanging all day without a phone!!
if you cant fix it what should i do to the no service i'm getting? any suggestions?

Guys, this has now gone past the limits of ridiculousness. After reading the forums for more than a week now, I am sure hundreds of thousands if not millions are affected by this. Guys, this is a LOT of unhappy people, which you can make happy). Many of us have bought the iPhone because we knew it could be jailbroken and unlocked. You guys are at the forefront of this field and thus this responsibility rests on you. We all love your work and admire you. HOWEVER, if you hadn't started jailbreaking/unlocking iPhones, somebody else would have. This is not a criticism, it is the reality which you will agree with if you are not biased. Everything eventually gets hacked. Look at Google. So, it is your "responsability" (sorry, but that is the way it is, as I said many of us bought the iPhone because of what you do) to listen to the users which you wanted to help when you got in this field. We are all asking you to release this unlock ASAP, and not let us wait for some "other" update which will be more important than this, because believe me, nothing is as important to us right now than actually USING our phones.
Waiting for OS 4.0 to get released before releasing the unlock is not a good idea (but then again, we actually are biased). 4.0 is a major release which will come with it's own exploits.
By holding this unlock back you are losing respect from a lot of us. If this is a question of money (which i HIGHLY doubt it is -forgive us if we insult you here-), then just tell us and we will be HAPPY to donate, because it is WORTH it and has been for long.
If you can do something today, then don't wait for tomorrow. You can never know what happens.
Thank you for reading this and hopefully listening to us.
I have made an ONLINE PETITION which interested users can sign and maybe an unlock will emerge.

HI there...
First of all sorry for my english, cuz I am from Brazil...
My iPhone is "Jailbroken" and unlocked and I was using it tethering internet to my laptop, when I turned my laptop off and got the iphone to use I realised it was fucking slow, and just in few seconds it got stucked. So I forced it to shutdown by holding Power + Home bottons, then I turned it on and got connected to my laptop, cuz I need to use blackra1n to boot it (i am running 3.1.2), but BlackRa1n just keeps going on and on several times with the GeoHot secreen and do not Restart...
I've been looking arround how to fix this and but I got no solution... Then I went to Restore it thru iTunes, when I did it showed up a message asking:
"Are you shure you want to restore the iPHone to the facture settings? All your data will be deleted and a new iPhone software will be instaled".
Can I do this or not???
Will I be able to get it Jailbroken + unlocked again after the update of this new iPhone software??? Is this the 3.1.3 upgrade???
I am afraid of doing it and getting it useless till Dev Team hack it...
Please ANYONE help me.
Hugs from Brazil and
ThankZ in advance!
