The iOS 4.0.1 jailbreak is easy to perform. If you are on iPhone 4, you will just have to wait for the iOS 4.1 jailbreak to come out.

Many Apple users who updated to the latest iOS4 software updated will now need to wait for an iOS4 jailbreak. A jailbreak allows users to add unofficially approved apps to their iPhone or iPod touch or iPad.

iOS4 can be jailbroken, and this was proved in our previous jailbreak iPhone OS 4.0 post.

WARNING

• PwnageTool is compatible with all iPhones and the iPod touch first generation and only iPod touch 2nd generation devices that were already jailbroken before. If you have an iPod touch 3rd generation, you cannot use PwnageTool.
• If you recently purchased an iPhone 3GS, the jailbreak may or may not work. I recommend you try blackra1n (1-click jailbreak) to see if you can jailbreak.

PwnageTool 3.1.4 Download links

PwnageTool 3.1.4 Tutorial

1. Connect your iPhone or iPod Touch to your PC and then open the PwnageTool application. If you don’t have iTunes then go to this link and download iTunes.

2. Select your device by clicking on it and then click the white arrow to continue.

3. PwnageTool will now attempt to find the IPSW file for your iPhone. If you haven’t downloaded it already, then download it now from here:

• iPhone 3.1.2 download (iPhone1,1_3.1.2_7D11_Restore.ipsw, 241 MB)
• iPhone 3G 3.1.2 download (iPhone1,2_3.1.2_7D11_Restore.ipsw, 242 MB)
• iPhone 3GS 3.1 download (iPhone2,1_3.1.2_7D11_Restore.ipsw, 306 MB)

(Right-click and save to your PC. Do not use Safari to download this because Safari will download this as a .zip file)

4. Once PwnageTool has found your IPSW file it will show it on the screen. Click it and click the arrow to continue.

5. PwnageTool will ask you the following: “We will now create an .ipsw file that you can use to restore your iPhone 3G(S) with iTunes. This file will be placed on your desktop. Do you want to continue?” Just click on the Yes button.

6. PwnageTool will now show this message if you have an iPhone 3GS: “Do you have an iPhone 3G(S) contract that would normally activate through iTunes?” If you are using an unlocked iPhone, then click on the No button to continue. If you click Yes, then PwnageTool will create an IPSW with an updated baseband which will not be able to unlock your iPhone 3GS device on the current 05.11.07 modem firmware (baseband).

7. PwnageTool will now start the Building IPSW process. It will also ask you to enter in your password in the middle of it, just enter in the username and password for your Mac and click OK.

8. Once the Building IPSW process is complete, PwnageTool will show the following message: “Has your iPhone 3G(S) been Pwned before (does it have the pineapple logo)? If you are unsure click No.” Just click on No.

9. PwnageTool will now put your device in to recovery mode so you can restore the custom IPSW file to your device.

10. Once your device is in recovery mode, open iTunes and press option on your keyboard and at the same time click on Restore in iTunes. Select the IPSW file that has the name Custom_Restore.ipsw in it and click Choose.

11. iTunes will now restore the custom firmware to your device. Once it’s restored, you can open your device and see the Cydia and Icy app on there. That’s all there is to it!

1. Jailbreak iPhone 3.1.2 firmware with blackra1n

WARNING

• If you want to keep your software unlock on the iPhone, you should not use blackra1n. You will need to use PwnageTool instead, which preserves your baseband and helps you update without loosing your unlock.
• blackra1n is supported on all iPhones, and iPod touches running on iPhone OS 3.1.2 firmware except for the iPod touch 3rd generation 8 GB (model MC). What that means is that if you brought an iPod touch after September 9 and the Model # on the back has “MC“, you cannot jailbreak it with blackra1n. If you try to do that, then you will need to restore your iPod touch! Update: The latest blackra1n supports all devices, the newer iPod touch and iPhone 3GS will be tethered, meaning you will need to connect your device to your computer and run blackra1n again every time you reboot.

blackra1n Download links

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click either the Windows logo to download blackra1n for Windows, or click the Apple logo to download blackra1n for Mac.
