So i have a vanilla 3.0.1 on my 3GS. Am i right in understanding that i have to JB the 3.0.1 i have first BEFORE trying to update to a JB 3.1 via PT. If so how do i JB the 3.0.1 i currently have?

I tried redsno0w with 3.0.1 but it wouldn't recognise it
 
Wish it didn't have the stupid Pineapple start up...or that it didn't install Icy.

Or that I didn't have to install all my stuff again :(.

But I can confirm it works (on a 3GS).

When it asks for the source ipsw, select the one for 3.0, even though you're on 3.1
 
Jailbreaking from a 3.0 JB unlocked. Doing this method still works with ultrasn0w, right?
 
for those stuck in the apple logo screen how did u get it to work? im stuck at that screen and i cannot restore at all

Thanks

One other question for the masses, is Saurik still taking ECID files?...been looking for the make my life easier option but its not there instead it sais this device has a 3.1 ECID on file. Prior to this i did recover the IBEC files and have them tucked away. Is it possible to manually upload files to saurik or something?
 
Can any one answer this? Is a phone currently jailbroken with redsn0w considered "pwned"?

Dev Team likes to use the term "pwned" throughout their blog. Can someone clearly answer this question.

For the purpose of this new "update" from pwned 3.0.x to 3.1, does pwned mean the same as jailbroken with redsnow?

Thanks in advance.
 
Successfully upgraded to JB 3.1. But I can't get tethering re-enabled. Anyone have any luck with this?
 
try creating a new ipsw using expert mode, and disable the logos and icy.

I wish I knew this...but I just redownloaded everything from Cydia, and I don't feel like doing it again..haha. Maybe tomorrow or something. Thanks for the tip though.
 
I'm getting iPhone error 1600 when uploading the custom restore ipsw. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

I was getting the same thing... kept retrying and somehow my phone rebooted then I just **** + click in itunes and now Im jailbroken 3.1 but it doesnt show my carrier (AT&T)... just try to reboot ur phone then restore to ur custom firmware
 
not working for me at all, 3gs in restore mode on file with saurik, getting stuck at the connect to itunes screen, followed by the cannot restore iphone message
 
Folks, I upgraded to 3.1 using today's released pwnagetool, so I am jailbroken now but all third party applications (officially bought via appstore) fail to open. The built-in apps work fine (maps, mail, etc.). Cydia opens fine as well. But all other apps (which are legal) fail to open.

Any one having this issue?

Same here. I'm getting an error 1604. I made sure I'm using recovery mode, not DFU. Any ideas?
