JailBreak iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch 2G OS 3.1 With PwnageTool 3.1.3

iPhone Dev Team has released the latest PwnageTool which can be used for Jailbreaking Apple iPhone. PwnageTool 3.1.3 adds support for the 3.1 release of the iPhone software for iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch 2G. Unfortunately, PwnageTool 3.1.3 is only available for Mac OS X and as per the official announcement, iPhone Dev Team is not developing a Windows version of the software.

The iPhone 3GS is now supported in PwnageTool 3.1.3, assuming the phone was pwned at 3.0 or 3.0.1 – PwnageTool does not support the 3GS out of the box. If your iPhone 3GS has 3.1 preinstalled and is not Pwned then there is no tested jailbreak solution at the moment.

The iPod 2G is now supported in PwnageTool 3.1.3, assuming the iPod 2G was pwned at 3.0 or 3.0.1 – PwnageTool does not support the iPod 2G with 3.1 software out of the box.

GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a iPhone 3G or iPhone 3G(S) with ultrasn0w and rely on ultrasn0w to obtain cellular service then you should only update your device with an .ipsw that is made with the new PwnageTool. There are no second chances with this. You need to remember that PwnageTool will provide an upgrade path to newer versions of the iPhone software in the future.

In case you are new to the term, Jailbreaking an Apple iPhone it refers to the allowing installation of more than Apple applications on your Apple iPhone, these apps are usually the third party apps. This applies to all firmware versions, and it is different of unlocking the phone, which means to accept all carriers. An unlocked iPhone will accept all SIM cards from all carriers. You won’t be anymore tied to one carrier, which must be approved by Apple.
