Hi Dan

If you are on 5.11.07 firmware and want to jailbreak as well as unlock.. GeoHot’s blackra1n and blacksn0w is an easier and quicker method.

Follow this tutorial (it includes both jailbreak and unlock process)

hey rohit! long time no talk, but i wanted to ask you a quick question, i know you have all the answers!

just wanted to double check with you before i jailbreak. is the above method the preferred way to go about jailbreaking my 3g with 3.1.2 and i don’t have to worry about an unlock now that i’m on at&t. i have a mac also.

i just want to make sure that the above tutorial is the one i need to follow or if there is another since i’m running 5.11.07 firmware.

thanks, youre the best.

I did something wrong while doing this. Now my iphone 3g is on 3.12 and baseband 5.11.07 with no cydia on it. How can revert the process? Need help..

@SirG The latest Blackra1n jailbreak tool works for MC model too. Did you read this post:

http://www.digitalmarketingtalk.com/iphone/blackra1n-rc2-jailbreak-tool-for-new-iphone-3gs-coming-tom/

By the way since you are on the MC model you will have to do a tethered jailbreak.

Tethered means that if you have to do a hard reboot of your iphone, it will not boot up unless you have it connected to the pc.

“If own a specific late model iPhone 3GS and it loses power or needs to be rebooted for any reason, you must first tether it to a computer and use Blackra1n to turn it back on again.”

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I’m having no luck at all jailbreaking my 3Gs, probably because it is Model C, on 05.11.07, and firmware 3.1.2 and using Windows
How do i subscribe to your blog to learn when someone other than Geohot outs out a jailbreak that works for me – (Blackrain just leaves me in recovery mode, and having to restore through iTunes everytime)
Hoping you can help
many thanks
