Dev Team releases 3Gs 3.0 JB Tools

Posted in: Apple, Hacks, ITH, Jailbreak, iPhone, iPhone Dev Team, iPod Touch

The Dev Team just released their tools (RedSn0w and UltraSn0w) for the 3Gs running at 3.0. They have also enabled support for Winterboard and MobileSubstrate running the 3.0 version.

They mention that Apple is closing Jailbreakable holes at an increasing pace and that its becoming more and more difficult to jailbreak devices.

Their warning Sounds:

ultrasn0w unlockers — You all must remain particularly vigilent against upgrading your basebands, since doing so will kill the unlock (for most phones, there’s no going backwards in baseband version).  Apple has gotten very serious with the latest baseband — they’ve removed 180 (!) commands in an effort to cut down their exposure to holes.  So please always stay away from stock Apple IPSWs and instead use our tools as we release them.  These tools let you update your firmware without updating your baseband.

Those installing ultrasn0w will probably also need to do a single run of Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings.  We’re testing various fixes for that particular glitch.

Listen up for coming updates.
