Don’t Update. . . unless your battery % is wrong

Author : rooster


Apple’s recent firmware update, 3.1.3, is unnecessary unless you have been experiencing issues with your battery percentage. But because some people will want to update anyway while and keep their iPhone/iPod Touch  jailbroken, the dev-team announces PwnageTool 3.1.5.

The Dev-team gives the details:

iPhone 3G and 3GS unlockers should always be very wary to update their firmware.  This is no exception.  If you make a mistake along the way you may find yourself updating to official 3.1.3 in which case you will lose your unlock, possibly forever.

iPhone 3GS users (regardless of unlock) should stay away from this and all 3.1.3 jailbreak tools unless you know you have your “SHSH hashes” backed up via Cydia.  That’s because if you make a mistake you may find yourself stuck at official 3.1.3 with no way to jailbreak or come back down to 3.1.2 to jailbreak.

If you really truly feel that you need to update, this version creates a custom 3.1.3 IPSW for you to restore to on your iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS with early bootrom, iPod touch 1G, and iPod touch 2G with early bootrom.  If you don’t know if you have an early bootrom or not, please avoid updating until you learn more.

Here is the torrent link and here are further instructions. . .

Have fun but be careful.

    You know, there is now a way to downgrade from 3.1.3

    it worked for me, and if it doesn’t seem to work, re-edit hosts to look more like it is in the video

    this method tricks itunes verifying system for downgrading, and it worked on my ipod touch 3g
