Every time I've done this I've lost mms. I've done it three times and keep losing mms. Is there any thing I can do to stop losing mms? Nothing else goes wrong. With out redsn0w I have no problem picture texting (mms). Has any body else had this problem? Is there a way to fix it? I've tried several things but nothing has worked.

try resetting all settings to default from the system app
-
try version 0.9.5b5-3 instead of latest.. i had the same issue with 0.9.5b5-4
-
same issue its to do with the carrier update that causing the problem on my rogers iphone carrier update should be 7.1 but after using this its 7.0 and wont update any further. Rogetrs said its a apple issue and nothing they can do about it.
-
will this work if you jailbroke with Spirit?
-
We can still unlock this with ultrasnow 0.93
yes.... and we have the new i0s 4 :p.
-
There is comming new spirit to jailbreak iphone 4 & ios 4 soon.
-
Since you need to restore your iPhone 3G with iOS 4 first using this method, it doesn't matter.
-
Did u try the older version? Did it work? I've reset every thing. It must deal with the carrier update.
-
where can i download redsnow?
-
I have ios 4 on my 3G. Why is this happening then?
-
Hay guys,
i think you need to change the link to the redsnow. It is pointing to the MAC version.
Also i have now jailbroke my iphone using this method and everything works perfect on my 3g.
I hope someone finds a way to downgrade 4.0 to 3.1.3......
Everything ive tried seems to fail.
-
You can download it using the link in the post or you can download the latest version from here:

on redsnow im getting a message that says "unable to recognize specified IPSW" am i doing something wrong? or why am i getting this
-
Is this a tethered jailbreak?
-
u need to point to the beta gm ... even tho u have the offical one on ur phone u need to point to the gm

I used 0.9.5b5-3 after restoring my phone to factory using iTunes. I then pointed redsnow to the downloaded firmware that was on my desktop and followed the instructions used above. iPone 3G works perfect. The first time I attempted, I tried it without restoring phone to factory and several things didn't work (multitasking, mms, etc.). I have not used the latest redsnow because the previous version worked perfectly for me.
-
Yes because redsnow overwrites the kernal in the file before performing the second update, but it has to find a recognizable file (from APPLE) to patch the kernal. This way it is patching the most recent firmware that is already on your iPhone.
-
Please leave a post if this makes sense/works. Later
-
Dude I could not use the gm version on redsnow but i used 0.9.5b5-3 and all went well and I have mms again. Thanks dude!
-
Just use redsn0w -3 instead of -4 like jl said. Worked great for me.
-
I initially had the same issue using the beta redsnow and the current official firmware release. I used the following files and successfully jailbroke my 3G with no issues and everything is working. When you download the firmware, make sure you change the file extension to .ipsw. It is probably a .zip that was downloaded.

If by tethered, you mean using USB, Yes it is.
