I believe you want to use the 3.0 firmware with Redsnow after updating to 3.0.1 with iTunes.
posted this int he other forum but no reply....... so yeah. I admit, I'm a noob at all this. I have my 3G JB right now...
do I install 3.0.1 first, then re-jailbreak it?
or just open redsn0w and select the 3.0.1 ipsw file and update it that way? hmm. thanks in advance.

Connect to iTunes, Update, then open Redsn0w and point it to 3.0 and not 3.0.1 .... and jailbreak how you would normally do it
I didn't read any information on the forums about 3.0.1 firmware and just updated as soon as I saw it. Then right while I was updating I realized it could mess up my current JB.
Oh well though, now I know what I have to do when 3.1 comes out lol.
Correct. The firmware has to match the new stuff in the JB. (Sorry for my lack of use of technical terms lol)
Ok the story continues ....
I downloaded redsnow 0.8.0 from the Dev Team site today after giving up and going to bed last night lol.
I managed to get redsnow to work with my iphone and used the 3.0 ipsw and everything seemed to going fine but when it finished it reverted back to the usb to itunes screen for emergency calls only. I did notice that if I selected 'icy' to be installed as well as cydia and the unlock, that redsnow would crash. So I unticked icy and tried again and this time it seemed to go through the process a lot faster than the first time, I also saw the 'pineapple with legs' screen and hoped everything would be fine. It finished and all I was left with on the phone screen is cydia and no other program icons? I connected it with itunes and it shows that the firmware is upgraded to 3.01 and the phone is unlocked.
When I open up cydia it crashes after a second or two.
I also tried to restore the phone using the backup on itunes but it would not let me, so I sync'd it as if it were a new phone hoping that I would get back all of the basic icons etc... but that didn't get them back either, so my question is...
How can I get all of the basic icons and programs back on my iphone?
Will I have to do another restore to 3.0 and then run redsnow again?
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers!

Ok I restored via itunes again and then ran redsnow again and now i have all of the standard icons back on my iphone, it even let me restore to the backup I made before I started all of this lark lol.
But I still have the very same issue that I had before i restored, which is that the SMS program will not save any text messages in the list. It will send and receive them fine, but after leaving the program and then going back into the program any messages that were there are gone?
I have set the phone to not show a preview of the message but it still does for some reason?
Previous to my restoring issues I had installed another SMS program called SMSTools via cydia and it still would not retain any sent or received messages in the list.
Are there any boffins here that can give me a successful solution to this problem as this is the only thing that is wrong with my phone now?
Thanks to all that have helped me on previous posts!

anyone else having these issues after JBng 3.0.1?
from what i've read so far, the apps that are having trouble with the new FW are:
3g unrestrictor
Your Tube
Open SSH (based on above post)
sshams95,
I've had no problems with OpenSSH after the 3.0.1 update. I don't have the other apps so I can't comment on that.

Thanks...Just did 3.0.1 plus JB. Everything is working for me, including 3G Unrestrictor, Your Tube, Open SSH. Had Supr Pref 3 before, but I had to install Xsellize repo to get that again.
Also used PkgBackup to reinstall Cydia apps, worked very well for me.
I posted this in another thread, but will say it here too. Saurik has said that he is working on a way to do the patch provided by 3.0.1 without having to restore/rejailbreak. He said to just wait a few days to like a week. For me, I am fine with waiting and seeing what he comes up with. No rush for this update.
Nice, I'll wait for that cydia patch instead of redoing the whole update,sync, jailbreak, reinstall all cydia apps etc....
I dont really care that much about the sms security update.

i have lol sry i should have posted that the first time you see the phone has no sim currently, it belongs to my friend and he has his sim, but i jailbroke it with no problem the first time (i used redsnow with 3.0 firmware) and i was able to connect to my wifi network to install ultrasnow, but since ive updated to 3.0.1 i havent been able to do that
EDIT* i ended up putting my own sim and using my 3g cellular internet to download ultrasnow i guess i'll try and see if it works with his sim when i see him but i still dont understand why i suddenly cant connect to my wifi network i've tried everything i could think of and other things i've googled, my iphone and my wife iphone (both 3gs) are also updated to 3.0.1 and i jailbroke them and are working fine wifi and all but this 3g just wont connect it just says "unable to connect to so and so network" again any suggestions for a solution are more than welcome thank you i appreciate any help
Every firmware update is always gonna overwrite your JB firmware.
So, never run an Apple update unless you...
1) No longer wish or care to be JB/UL
2) Have a method and time to re-JB
Qik won't run under 3.0.1 but my Open SSH is fine. Used it all yesterday to re-mod phone.
3G Unrestrictor was updated last night and is now compatible with 3.0.1
That's a great idea ! Pull out the changes, write a script similar to Redsn0w and just overwrite the necessary files instead of a whole new firmware rewrite.
