    POD2G recommended that we update to 5.0.1. I would like to do this so I do not miss out on the opportunity to jailbreak my device when it is released but… How, if in any way, can i update from 5.0 to 5.0.1 and preserve my 1.0.11 baseband? I have searched google far + wide and I can not find the answer to this question. Would someone who knows what they are talking about, pleace enlighten me with your knowledge. I’d greatly appreciate it.!

    I don't know if other people have the same problem as me, but when I go to change my wallpaper I am greeted with a black screen where the other wallpaper options used to be.

    Hi guys, does anyone now's if there's going to be an updated version of Pwnage to upgrade to 5.0.1, to me Redsn0w is too complicated and I've always used Pwnage (not saying anything negative about Redsn0w) don't want to upset anyone's feeling, just wondering. Thanks

    I jailbraked my 3GS as per the instructions, also installed ultrasn0w and corona 5.0.1 untethered 1.0.3 but my iPhone 5.0.1 (9A405) with 05.16.05 BB is not able to detect my network. I got Searching... message for the whole time.It was used in US with AT&T and trying it now in Europe without success.Can anyone tell me if it's really possible to unlock my 3GS ?

    I upgraded my 3GS from iOS 4.3.3, but I couldn' t install many of the applications I was running correctly on the mentioned version. I spitted blood to make "****" work correctly, the "iphonedelivery" for the SMS delivery reporting, was hanging the messages application until I uninstalled it from Cydia... Generally, I wouldn' t recommend making the leap from the very stable 4.3.3 to this freakin' problematic 5.0.1. At least not until they update the appropriate applications in order to work with the new iOS, or something. If you don' t have concerns regarding future versions compatibility of appstore applications(I mean to require at least iOS 5), then you should NOT touch the 4.3.3 version.

    I have an iPhone 4 (32GB), firmware 5.0.1 (was restored to this before i got this phone). Its locked to AT&T and never been jailbroken as far as I know. Baseband is 04.11.08 like most folks frustrated with this particular situation. There is no Gevey Sim for this out yet either. Dev, what can someone like myself do in this situation? I have come to this link to jailbreak without updating baseband, but I fear the unknown noticing others with problems with bootloops, and worse. Id appreciate some light on this subject, or to what extent I can unock or jailbreak at the moment, and IF there is anything out there that can support my dilemma.Mllion thanks in advance, been waiting for a few weeks like this now.. quite frustrating.

    I have an iPhone 3GS that was jailbroken to 4.3.3 and unlocked with Ultrasn0w. Everything was working fine. Now I tried to jailbreak on 5.0.1 but I'm stuck on the activation screen asking for a valid sim card. What can I do from there ?Thanks !FG

    Hey l33k3d!nfo,did you get a response from anyone? I am also stuck at 5.0.1 with 04.11.08 baseband, which was restored before given to me. Never jailbroken before. I understand that Ultrasnow is used for unlocking, where Redsnow for Jailbreaking. Still unsure if I should go ahead and carry on with this process with the kind of errors people are running into. Not everyone, but that fact that they DO encounter problems means I could be one of them as well. Will never know unless I try, which im not willing at the moment unless a solid procedure/software guideline is available for our situation. Would appreciate an update/follow-up if you have one.

    Hey Dave,any luck at your front with the 04.11.08 unlock? I guess theres still no unlock feature in Redsnow, Snowbreeze for 04.11.08, but i gather the JB will work on our iPhone's if we are at 5.0.1 as "i0x13h" has mentioned below, but without call features.Does JB'ing 5.0.1 affect FACETIME features? Currently I can use that off wifi spots with no problems.. id rather stay locked until something comes out that wont affect this feature in particular.Thanks.

    I think baseband 06.15.00, 05.13.04 or below are supported by ultrasn0w for iOS 5.0.1.. should upgrade to 06.15.00 if your iphone has baseband 05.14.xx or 05.15.xx but others said gps functionality may be lost for that upgrade.. you can research on how to downgrade baseband to 05.13.04 but not sure if possible so gps will still be functioning... not sure if there is already fix to that gps issue.. that's why i have restored my iphone 3gs to my to iOS 5.0.1 with its current baseband 05.13.04. hope this helps..

    try if there are any word "apple" in your hosts file (located in C:\system32\drivers\etc\). If there is, back up that file then open as admin in a notepad and remove that line or even everything... so it is clean.. save and restart PC(some pc didn't need restart so you can try again restoring before restarting)... if this doesn't work you can put back the original hosts file. make sure your itunes is also the latest version... hope this helps..

    After doing this on my 3gs it's asking to be activated. When I right click the phone in iTunes, it just says Eject. There was no mention of activating in the tutorial. How can I fix this?
