    This is awesome. I'm also on 3.1.3 3gs jailbreak by Spirit (old bootrom). have been trying to upgrade but not successful.

    This fixes the problem (i used to get 160x errors on iTunes). Now i'm on 4.0 and can also unlock with ultrasnow.

    Great job and Thanks!

    Just confirming that it works.

    I have previously had a Jailbroken 3GS on 3.1.3 by Spirit. Using this guide, I have successfully Jailbroken to iOS 4.0. Thank you, masked crusader.

    if you have previously register your 3.1.3 jailbreak with cydia you can downgrade your ios4 back to 3.1.3.

    USE Sn0wbreeze/PwnageTool to create the custom firmware for your upgrading..

    ih8sn0w can jailbreak 4.0 on a 3GS (new bootrom) although its really tedious but worth it.
    Follow the instructions carefully to jailbreak it

    Worked on mine perfect...

    Have old bootrom and jailbroken with Spirit.

    When to repository and downloaded the Spirit2Pwn and installed it. After this, used Snowbreeze 1.6.2 to create the custom firmware on iOS4.

    What I did then was just connected it to iTunes, but I DIDN'T put the phone in DFU mode OR Recovery mode.

    With the phone connected to iTunes, I just hit the SHIFT and clicked on Restore... Navigated to my custom firmware and it updated it fine.... But it does not update your baseband, so I'm still on 05.12.01.

    So currently now on iOS4, Jailbroken, Unlocked

    For anyone who is having problems, please try restoring when the phone is idle and don't put it in DFU or Recovery Mode.

    My iPhone is 3GS (old bootroom) already jailbroken with spirit on version 3.1.3

    and now i successfully upgraded it to 4.0 by custom firmware from sn0wbreeze 1.6.2, so even it's FAKE as what you said it's worked at the end

    Restore to ios4 using this method with no problem.

    Worked for me too - thanks for the suggestion to skip DFU and restore directly form iTunes when iPhone is conceded and idle.


    When installing spirit2pwn in Cydia a mine got stuck at the reloading screen as well, but I just restarted the phone and it worked.

    Please ensure that you create the custom firmware correctly when it asks you whether to activate your iphone.
    if you got it wrong then there will be error and no carrier network at all.
    I got it wrong at first try so i create again this time with "NO". Shift restore and i successfully upgrade to ios4 with no error.

    make sure phone is recovery mode (shows plug) and not DFU mode. that was what I did wrong. to get to recovery mode: turn off iphone by holding down power button and swiping to turn off. plug into computer, hold down home button until it shows plug. then run restore in itunes. yay!

    Besides the racist tone of your comment, which says much about your intellect (or lack thereof) in general, you should make some attempt to master the English language a bit better yourself. All day long I see maddening evidence in forums of people who missed the day in school when they explained the difference between "your" and "you're". You're no exception to the other idiots. These are different words with entirely different meanings. Look it up...YOU'RE going to find that YOUR use of the English language is no less goony goo goo.

    Just download F0recast mate and apparently if it says 'Tethered = No' I think it means you have the old bootrom...

    Hi...just wanted to let everyone know that I tried this patch and it worked. I am now running IOS 4.0 on my 3GS. My previous firmware was 3.1.3 and the baseband was (and still is) 05.12.01. Please note that I have the OLD BOOTROM 359.3. Found it out by following the method here (http://tipsneeded.com/find-bootrom-version-iphone-3gs/)
    My 3GS was jailbroken with SPIRIT and unlocked at 3.1.3 with ultrasn0w 0.93.
    The following were the steps I took:
    1) Open Cydia add the source (repo.woowiz.net)
    2) Click on the source after installation and scroll down to spirit2pawn
    3) Install spirit2pawn
    4) Follow the procedure to create the custom IOS 4.0 firmware (I used Pwnage tool on my Mac) or find an already created custom firmware for IOS 4.0
    5) Restore using iTunes 9.2 (be sure to use the custom firmware saved on your computer...you access it on the Mac by using the Alt-Option key and clicking restore in iTunes)
    6) After restore I ran ultrasn0w 0.93 to unlock
    7) The end result...running IOS 4.0 with 05.12.01 baseband...I had some issues with the signal, but later realized that I had to do the unlock in order to use T-mobile

    i was on 3.1.3 j/b with Spirit but still on the old bootrom. i thought black rain was only for 3.1.2.

    It's worked for me. I have a 3GS 32GB jailbroken iOS 3.1.3 with Spirit. It has the old bootrom. I used iDetect to check it. Following the instructions, the process went smoothly without a hitch.
