You can just use BlackRa1n... It's much faster... Or you can download the second one and restore to that.

Dev Team DEFINITELY warns against downloading these. Especially since this is split into two files and you'll be joining it. One file corruption and you're SOL.
 
Thanks for the reply. Only think about Blackra1n is that I can't get it to do it.

I have been trying for 3 days and it won't break it, thats why I was thinking of doing it this way.

I even tried two diffrent computers and the same thing.

What happened? It should work... Weird.

I guess you can try the IPSW but getting it in two parts puts me on edge.

Glad it worked out for you. But you shouldnt be leary of these files. They've been tried and proven to work great.

In download they could be corrupted. Or in joining the files. There's no checksum for the actual IPSW.

You'd probably be fine using them... I just wouldn't do it myself.

The same thing can be said for anything you download, also when you are extracting the files, if there is an error, it will let you know during the extraction. Its safe as can be :) but to each his own.

Keep in mind, this is pretty much the only way someone with only access to a windows computer can jailbreak if they want to preserve their baseband for unlock-ability.
 
I have a question guys. So I have a 3gs that is jailbroken with 3.0.1. Can I just get a ipsw 3.1.2 file and restore it to my phone and will it work fine? BTW I have windows. If not, i know blackrain is out there but i would rather just do a restore to the newer update if its available. Thx guys.,

just used the custom ipsw to upgrade 3GS from 3.0 to 3.1.2 - just restored in iTunes (no DFU mode required since it was already jailbroken). went smoothly.

P.S. used Windows 7 and iTunes 9
 
the ipsw for the iPhone 3G 500MB partion UNACTIVATED (for iphone with offical carrier, and ability to have PUSH noitifications)

would this work for an iphone 3g 3.1.2 BB 05.11.07 (not jailbroken but is offically unlocked by O2-UK)?
