WIll this work for iphone 2g 8gig?
-
I don't see why not...
It should work fine for any Jailbroken iPhone, regardless 2g, 3g, etc...
-
I remember reading very clearly that I wouldn't be able to use yellowsn0w if I used the quickpwn jailbreak. If I update to 3.0, will I be able to use ultimatesn0w having already using quickpwn on 2.2.1?
-
Correction from last post: *ultrasn0w. Not Ultimatesn0w. Oops!
-
Really guess I'm from Germany used your tools since the start - Amazing how you do all those things!!!! Thank you without you I could have never ever used an iPhone!!!! You rock!! Best wishes!
-
any word on when quickpwn for v3.0 will be released?
-
Yes sir it will work with any iPhone running 3.0 iPhone ,3g and 3g s
Thank You -
Vishnu, I don't think the Dev Team have confirmed that this will work in the 3GS. They haven't gotten their hands on one yet, so there's no way they can tell if Apple have implemented a hardware solution that blocks hacking. In fact, there's no way to know if they can even jailbreak the 3GS, let alone unlock it.

I upgraded my unlocked iphone 2g 8gb to 3.0 and now just bricked my iPhone.
DO NOT upgrade if you do not have At&t plan -
Yes, it should be fine if you jailbreak with QuickPwn. The reason you couldn't before is because QuickPwn would not filter the baseband update forced on your iPhone.
However, unlike yellowsn0w, UltraSn0w appears to not be dependent on your baseband. So as long as you have OS 3.0, you should be fine, regardless of how you jailbreak.
Don't quote me on that, though.

@John
I updated my phone without any problems. Not that it helps you but there is probably another reason for it, not the update. -
cant wait for friday!
-
jimmy - can you let me know what you did? I was running 2.2.1.
1) upgraded to itunes 8.2 so i could get 3.0 software
2) downloaded and installed 3.0 software to phone
3) upgrade worked but i am presented with screen showing to plug iphone into computer
4) when i plug into computer I get a message saying i need to 'activate the iphone using the att network' -
Upgraded my wifes 8GB phone with no problems, the bluetooth stereo option works fine while the p[hone is on but fails when it goes into Powersave nice one Steve!!
-
no this is a 3g only update the 2g is different (in quickpwm check unlock baseband in 2g mode) the 3gs has a new baseband chip and company and this will NOT work the same way - saying this from Alaska!!!!!!
-
So I got a 3g. Can I go ahead and upgrade to the 3.0 software now? And, then just jailbreak it later when the dev team relase their pwnage tool to jailbreak it? And, wait till friday to unlock it with ultrasnow? Or do I need to wait for these tools to be released by the dev team before upgrading to 3.0 software?
-
so is it okay for me to still update my jailbroken 1st gen iPhone with the new OS 3.0 and will anything change? or just go ahead and wait till Friday?
-
Brad,
You can go ahead and upgrade to 3.0. Once Quickpwn is available use that to jailbreak and finally install ultrasn0w to unlock.One normally needs to wait for Pwnage if the baseband needs to be preserved but that is not the case here.
-
I have seen other reports like this. Have you turned your phone off and back on?
-
Thanks! I kinda figured that.
-
sKip2mYK- I am just quoting what I read on a different board. One of the users mentioned he updated his 1st generation phone to 3.0 (note he did not restore)that gave him the new software, while preserving the unlock, the phone however, was no longer jailbroken.
So if you are not on AT&T my recommendation would be to wait for the Dev team tools to become available.
-
alright cool! thanks! finally someone with an answer! thanks again!
-
Dev team is saying they would release the jailbreak software today, they going to post up where the quickpwn can be downloaded from ? Whennnnnn?!!
-
yeah i know! and i'm wondering the same question too, whennn!? hopefully by tonight, hopefully..
-
this is amazing. what a great job has done by dev team.many many thanks to the guy who found this hole.
-
Is the jailbreak 3.0 will be able to shoot video (video camera)on iphone/iphone3G??
Or bluetooth stereo on iphone??
-
Thank you Josh! =)
-
I am wondering if it will kill all files and stuff on my iphone...and if so, how can i make a backup or something? I don't wanna lose all my pictures and contacts...apps, i couldnt care less about.
Also, anyone know if i can MMS with my normal 2g? I am sure i can, since i can use some "3g only" apps.
if someone could email me a response that would be awesome...
