Does it also break tethering settings hack?
-
exactly what I intended to ask :)
-
I don't think so, as this update just fixes the sms bug and nothing else. When 3.1 comes out it will break the tethering hack.
-
How can I try it and roll back if it does break tethering?
-
i just update before i read this so i should try re jailbreaking me phone?
-
let me rephrase I just got done updating and stupid me didn't read this... should I try re-jailbreaking my phone?
-
hey the purplera1n works with 3.0.1
thanks -
can anyone tell me if they used ultrasn0w on 3.0.1 and if it worked properly? or should i just wait for dev team?
-
Is there a guide posted some where on how to do the update and apply the jailbreak? Do you loose all your settings?

Yes it works on iphone 3gs and iphone 2g, I was able to unlock and activate my 2g with redsnow since its not in a data plan which is used by my wife and on 3gs i tried ultrasnow to unlock it just to try it works or not though its in at&t, its working fine like before. Just make sure to use 3.0 firmware while using red0snow.

Tethering is completely unaffected!

F.Y.I. This post was made after update to 3.0.1 and Tethered!
Proof that it's safe to update a phone that isn't Unlocked or Jail-broken. -
@ cartman i used ultrasn0w on 3.0.1 and it works flawlessly! Go for it without any worries.
Just update using itunes and your iphone supplier sim to activate it. Then use rednow selecting 3.0 firmware to jailbreak. After that, REMOVE ANY SIM CARD, and unlock it using ultrasnow. When finished and restarted, pop in your 3rd party sim.Good luck!

-
redsn0w worked, pointed to 3.0 firmware
