IPhone :: Jailbreak For 3GS New Boot Rom After Update To 3.1.3
Mar 24, 2010
It took me all nite, but I was able to re-jailbreak my iPhone 3GS after I got stuck in reboot mode after a network reset and was forced to update to 3.1.3. This happened almost 3 weeks ago, and I not only lost my jailbreak, but all of the apps, photos and EVERYTHING that I had on my phone as after I did the update to 3.1.3 I could only set up my phone as a new device. Anyway, I searched online and I found all of the tools I needed to accomplish this task. I downloaded Redsn0w 0.9.2, BlackRa1n RC3, The 3.1.2 ispw firmware, and iRecovery. I also found a post on hacking the drivers folder in the Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts file in Windows that would allow 3.1.3 to be downloaded to 3.1.2. It took a couple of hours and some patience, but when all was said and done I was able to downgrade the firmware and re-jailbreak my phone.
After I jailbroke my iP4, I've noticed that the boot/respring screen has an apple with a spinner on top with a couple lines of color at the top. Is anyone else getting this? It only does it for a few seconds.
i currently have an iphone 3gs with 3.1.2 jailbroken. it was manufactured in week 29 of last year according to my serial number. does that mean i have the old boot rom/non MC-model? i know 3.1.3 has no new features. the only reason i have to update is because my cydia/apt is screwed up and the only way to fix it is to restore. itunes will not let me restore my 3.1.2 without updating (yes, i tried the shift/option button thing).i just want to know if i upgrade to 3.1.3, will i be able to jailbreak with snow breeze?p.s. i know i can upgrade and downgrade using saurik's method, but that's just too much work.
I have an iPhone 3G which is currently jailbroken using QuickPWN. My firmware is version 2.2.1 with Modem Firmware 02.30.03.
Without the more recent 3.x.x firmware I cannot use some of the newer Apps which require this update.With all of the banter about preserving baseband and future unlock & jailbreaking what is the best way to update my firmware and re-jailbreak the phone?
i have an iphone 3G S, someone please answer me, i have an IPHONE 3GS, can i RESOTRE in ituens to a fresh 4.0 and then use pwnagetool 4.01 to jailbreak and then ultrasn0w to unlock? i dont know if its the old bootrom or the new one,it has baseband 05.12.01, i used ultrasn0w to unlock it and now its unlocked, i used SPIRIT to jailbreak it,I want to upgrade to firmware 4.0 right now,i read in the pwnage tool 4 notes that i cant restore with a custom firmware now because i jailbroke with spirit,so please tell me , how would i update to 4.0 and jailbreak and unlock?
I Jailbroke my iPhone using Redsnow 0.9.5 when firmware 4.0 first came out and all went well.Since that time, i have jailbroken a buddy of mine's iPhone, and i saw that the software has changed from "0.9.5" to --> "0.9.5b5-5"
I'm thinking there must of been something in the jailbreak software that they changed if they created another update to it, and I'd like my iPhone to be as up to date with jailbreak software as possible.
To re-Jailbreak it with 0.9.5b5-5 am I going to have take my jailbreak off, which consists of restoring my iPhone and losing everything, including everything I have downloaded from Cydia. or could I just re-run the jailbreak software, on my already already jailbroken iPhone and it just patch and overwrite the existing jailbreak. or would it double the jailbreak software onto my iPhone?
I updated my facebook app on my iphone 4 and 3gs. after update it cannot connect to facebook. im not sure if its the jailbreak or the unlock from ultrasn0w.
Can anyone provide me with some guidance on how to update to the iOS4 plateform and keep my jailbreak? I am using an iPhone 3GS on 3.1.2 JB with old bootrom
I was wondering that if I were to purchase apps such as BiteSMS and Lockinfo, what would happen if I restored my phone to update and then did another jailbreak? Would I have to repurchase the apps?
I haven't read anything lately regarding the problem jailbroken phones have when runinng the last Skype update, in regards to multitasking and background support.
Are there any news? Is it due to mobile substrate? I'm just curious since I haven't seen any talk about this.
I've got an Iphone 3G updated to 4.0.1 and I did jailbreak it and unlock the network, but now when I open the Itunes I found a mandatory update for the carrier setting. My question is if i update it will I lose the jailbreak and the network will lock again?
I followed the instructions in PC companion and after the last screen with disconnect the cable and boot up it started ut fine but then nothing happend, this was an hour ago.
I've had the phone for a few months now, and it has been somewhat unreliable since day one: random reboots among the many and various problems I've had come and go sporadically. Never got 'round to contacting any kind of support 'till now. I haven't rooted the device, installed any custom ROM etc. It's a retail model FWIW.
I've just used the msu utility to update to 2.2 and after finishing the update the phone won't boot. I see an M logo with an ominous red background, followed by Bootloader
09.10 Err:A5,69,35,00,2F Battery OK OK to Program Connect to USB Data Cable
I've tried holding the volume / power buttons at startup and it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Received it today, fist thing I had to do was update it from 5.0.2. So I used the OTA update from t-mobile option (as it offered it as soon as I turned the phone on and connected to Wifi).
I click the "Restart and apply update" when it had finished downloading, set the phone down, browse the internet for a little and notice it was hanging on the Samsung logo.
I try to turn it off and on, nothing works. I try entering recovery mode, won't let me.So I then download and try manually flashing 5.1.1 through ODIN.
Everything says "PASS" in ODIN, it reboots and gets to the Samsung logo, shows the android robot, says "installing updates" but when the bar reaches about 45% it switches to "erasing" then goes back to getting stuck on the Samsung Logo.
What can I do ? I really don't want to trip knox as Pay is the sole reason I bought this stupid phone, all other Stock ROMS now fail odin and G920TUVU3DOI1_G920TTMB3DOI1_G920TUVU3DOI1_HOME.tar is just doing the Install then erase thing.
I have an Xperia X10 since July on Vodafone UK. It is (was) running the latest SE firmware, but is now 'bricked' - I learned this term while googl-ing for the problem, but all the mentions involve 'debranding' or installation of unofficial (unauthorised) firmware releases - and I haven't done ANY of that.
The story in detail:
1. In recent days I noticed some glitches in the performance of Android Market on the phone: some downloads were reported as 'unsuccessful' and had to be repeated. This happened both with new apps and with updates. On occasions a reboot was necessary for downloads to start happening normaly again.
2. Today (Sat 30-10) this went to extreme: NO download from the Market was possible at all, each time it stalled forever. As explanation, an error message started coming up: "The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped and needs to be force-closed". No rebooting would solve this. I cleaned several caches (after reading various forums about the error)
3. I decided to reinstall the firmware, hoping to fix the Market performance. Backed up all my data and connected to PC Companion. In the first phase it reported that I "already have the latest version", but I wasn't after an update, so I went on to Repair / Reinstall.
4. The download went smoothly and the installation started well, proceeding to near-the-end. THEN, PC Companion reported: "The installation was unsuccessful, try again". I tried - several times, and the result was the same. Decided to return to my existing installation and seek other ways to repair that 'com.google.,..' process.
5. On attempting to boot, I saw that dreaded YELLOW TRIANGLE with no explanation, and a dead phone not responding to any controls. Had to turn it off by removing thebattery..
6. Several re-installation attempts with both Companion and SEUS also failed, and I am stuck with a useless brick
Yesterday I updated my Nexus 5 to android 6 via ota update notification. it seems it didn't download correctly. after a hour I power off my cellphone and after that it didnt boot again and still in page with android logo and ! red mark. I tried to install ota update file via adb sideload but I got status 7 error.
After that I tried to solve status 7 with flash system.img's factory image file but when I type fastboot flash system system.img it still on <<waiting for device>> screen. How can I solve this problem. My datas are very important for me and I dont want to lost theme.
I updated my phone using the PC companion and this crashed half way through. I now have a phone that will turn on but on the loading screen is stuck wiyth a frozen yellow screen at the bottom half of the screen. it states:Repair your phone software You can perform a manual phone update to repair the software even if the phone doesn't start or can't be found by PC Companion.
I'm using a non-rooted device. I pulled the OTA update for gingerbread and it downloaded successfully. When it restarts it loads up to the boot screen and begins installation. It gets about 1/4 of the way before I get an exclamation error and the phone restarts. I've tried it multiple times and even formatted my phone before trying it.
It is seen in the web that Motorola is going to release updates for unlocking the locks in the bootloader in its phones just like xoom from Q3 ,2011 onwards.Is it true?If so whether it will be available to the Milestone(European version) also?And to the rooted Milestone also?Whether this update is available by OTA or through web?
I used the second way, because the first one told me that 'system.img' was missing (not the only one), whatever; second method was good I did all it was asked but I didn't saw the one command out of the box "fastboot flash cache C:androidimagecache.img", I mean, I did all the command in the 'Code' box but the one 'fastboot flash cache C:androidimagecache.img' was out and I miss it.
So next I followed the step, select "Recovery" using the volume buttons, press Power Button + Volume UP when the android is dead with triangle, it's okay, but now the phone just rebooted and there were no 'Select "Wipe data/factory data reset' as tutorial said there will be.
And now I'm stuck in the boot animation since around 15 minutes I tried to update to 6.0.0 and it's just stuck in the animation.
I got an OTA update notification for 5.1 I downloaded and pressed install. It prompted me for a restart which i did. My phone has a setting which required me to punch in screen lock code everytime my phone restarts. Now, after restarting, it asks me to punch in the screen lock code. After punching in screen lock code, its stuck in boot animation loop ### Read some posts online and they mention " unlocking bootloader before updating. What is bootloader ? How do i check if my boot loader is locked or unlocked?
I tried to boot in recovery mode and it shows me " No command" ... I wiped cache partition through recovery mode- still no luck. It's stuck in boot loop..
My Xoom said an update was available last week and every since th update was applied the boot process will not progress past the Motorola logo with "Dual Core Technology" below it. How to make my system functional again?
I have updated my Defy's software using the official Motorola Software Update software. The update process passed through but at the end the phone not booted.
The error message is the following:
Bootloader
09.10
Err:A5,69,35,00,27
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
I have even tried to reset with: Vol Down + Power + right down tap. But the small droid doesn't come up. Do I have to bring it to the service? I need my phone every day for work..
My xperia z3 was a little low on battery while attempting an update (said it would only be 9 minutes...) and phone died in the process. Now the software update failed message appears and i cannot boot the phone. cannot charge sufficiently because this continuous boot process. tried the power+volume up to stop booting but that didnt work. tried to repair through PC companion. Told me there was no update available. what do I do now!
I just got my discount pricing from AT&T and want to go from my 3g to 3gs. If I walk into a store and buy one, can I jailbreak it? Do they upgrade the firmware on their stock or flash them when the customers get them? The store agreed to let me look at the phone before purchase, what should I look for? I have a friend there. What firmware is 100% breakable? I have no interest in iphone 4.0.
i found an alternative link at jailbreakme.com/blob.html. the site seems to be down atm. is there an alternative address i can use to jailbreak? ive tried both jailbreakme.com and jailbreakme.modmyi.com neither are working.
I'm hoping someone more inclined with iPhones than I would be able to present me with some options for jailbreaking my two iPhone 3GS's.
Here's my scenario: iPhone 3GS #1 has 4.0.1 iOS. 05.13.04 bootrom. No SHA1 blobs. iPhone 3GS #2 is brand new and right out of the box with no SIM inside it.
My goal is to ultimately jailbreak and unlock both, but there is so much information on the web and walkthroughs can be misleading. Delving through all of this information with all of the trial and error involved is quite tedious. If anyone knowledgeable on the forums would be able to share with me what ever would be the most painless way to jailbreak both of these devices, I would extremely appreciate it!
I am also running Mac OS 10.6.4 and iTunes ver. 10.
