Apple has stopped signing iPhone OS 3.1.2. This means that those with an iPhone 3GS or iPod touch 3 who did not use Cydia to store their TSS cannot restore to anything but OS 3.1.3.
If you fall into that category, Big Boss warns to please make sure you are very careful with what you do from now until the next jailbroken firmware. Be sure that you don't do anything to your iPhone that may require a restore.
You may want to install OpenSSH and learn how to use it so certain repairs can be performed without a restore.
iPhone 3g and 2g users do not need to worry about this.
For those with iphone 3gs, Apple don't let you to restore to 3.1.2 firmware. You will get an error saying that " unable to build ". So watch carefully what you are doing with your iphone. If you do something wrong and need to restore, your only option is to upgrade to 3.13 NO CHOICE. BE CAREFUL. THERE IS NO JAILBREAK AND/OR UNLOCK SOLUTION FOR 3GS WITH 3.1.3 FIRMWARE AS OF TODAY.
Beware of lexus_lover he is a scammer on ebay buying good iphones, taking exchanging parts and returning the iphones back with damaged parts. for more info google lexus_lover.
My wife's 3gs is at 3.1 still, jailbroken with Pwnage Tool. We want to do a restore with Pwnage Tool to 3.1.2 because of a few issues...Can I still do that? We are on att, so unlock isn't an issue. But will the restore to 3.1.2 with a customer IPSW still be okay?
i have got a 3gs in china on feb sec. when i tries to upgrade to 3.1.2 its dead.i cant even see the apple logo..the phone has lost its ass..some one please help me out..i am frustated..i dint even use my iphone atleast a hour..ny suggestions
I have an iPhone 3gs on 3.1.2 jailbroken & unlocked using blackrain, cydia has stopped working for some reason, it won't open at all. Is there any way to fix this other than a restore & jailbreaking again?
Also, if you don't have ssh installed, everywhere in the tutorial it says to ssh use iphonebrowser to access the files on your phone. If you get it working install ROCK it is nice to have both Cydia and Rock as backups for each other.
I've had Cydia crash like this twice. Both times this is the way I fixed it. (from the link above)
Reason For Crash: Apparently the problem is caused by some corrupted repositories that make Cydia crash within the first few seconds of loading it.
How to Identify: N/A
How To Fix: There is a quick and dirty fix for that and it requires to either SSH into your iPhone or use iPhoneBrowser and delete a few files.
To fix this, simply navigate to /var/lib/apt/lists and delete all the files in this folder except for the folder called partial.
Then reboot your iPhone and launch Cydia. It should load without crashing.
My iPhone died two days ago, new 3Gs bootrom... actually week 42.
Tried jailbreaking with redsn0w and caused a complete DFU loop.
I kept trying to update to 3.1.2 the past day with iTunes,
only to read this.
I have an unlocked iPhone 3GS OS 3.1.2 and it's been pretty stable so far.
But just in case something goes wrong, I would like to know if I will be able to use blackra1n to boot it and then unlock with blacksn0w instead of having to restore?
That should work, but if you have the newer version of the iPhone 3GS, you only can do a tethered jailbreak which means that you must plug in the iPhone to your computer and run the software everythime your iphone dies or restarts. If you have iPhone 2G/3G you should be okay. https://www.iclarified.com/entries/index.php?caid=2&scid=11&seid=2
You gotta be kidding me right now, i get home and my fukn phone crashes looking at dumass google latitude and now they dont even sign stupid 3.1.2, and its frozen, stuck on the apple logo, i cant take it out of dfu/ whatever mode....dammit
The apple logo state is not dfu mode. Have you tried to restart the iphone by holding the home button and power button för several seconds until the phone restarts?
